His limbs have fully transformed to a metallic form, which he does his best to conceal by wearing long-sleeved tops, pants, gloves, and shoes. He often wears sunglasses as well to conceal his eyes.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong><br/>Gerald tends to be direct to the point. He feels that if there is a problem, one must face it wholeheartedly and diligently. This doesn't mean blindly charging in flailing wildly, but rather thinking things through and tackling the problem as soon as possible. While he is not averse to talking things out, he prefers a more physical approach to solving problems.<br/><br/>If there is anything that definitely excites him, it would be machines. Not just cars, but planes, trains, tractors, printing presses, and factory assembly lines to name a few. He can spend the whole day just staring at machines at work if he was allowed to. He also enjoys working on such machines - taking them apart and putting them back together just to figure out how things work. If given the time and leisure, he would spend weeks cooped up working on a project involving custom-made contraptions of his own design.<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong><br/>Gerald grew up at a regular household of a small town in the central US, managing to get decent education and living through hard work done by fixing things. His parents let him leave the house to set out on his own when he finished college, believing that a man has to learn how to be self-sufficient if he wants to become independent. So he soon found a relatively cheap apartment to stay in the suburbs, and worked as a mechanic nearby to have enough for himself to do what he wanted to do.<br/><br/>While life was all right, Gerald felt it too normal. He has followed news about Evolved and how TAC 6 was organized to "deal" with the threat the Evolved are supposed to be, but he felt that it must have been nice to if one could get powers like that. He would often talk about it with his friends or coworkers, aside from talks about machines, and wondered what it would be like living as one.<br/><br/>Fortunes may be paying attention to him, and decided to make things work out for him. While taking his bike to work, a vehicle lost control and ran into him. He was quickly taken to the hospital, where the doctor has assessed him suffering from multiple fractures especially to his arms and legs. Most fear that would be the end of his days of living normally, and he did too. He spent the night staring at the ceiling thinking of what he can do, before sleep finally caught up with him. It was a fitful sleep with weird dreams of machines and other things, and other weird sensations. By the time he was awake, he found himself surrounded by doctors and his parents discussing about things he could barely hear. They were talking about things like "miracles" and "unbelievable things". He soon found out details of what happened.<br/><br/>Whatever injuries he sustained from the accident were gone - his body has showed signs of healing rapidly by somehow replacing his organic body with a metal one. Somehow this change was quick yet subtle in reproducing the usual functions he originally has. He can still eat and go about his normal needs, but it wasn't as necessary as before. Starting from the points of injury, his body was soon transformed into a mechanical version of it. It made him stronger, tougher, and faster (it took some time to get used to), as well as heavier (this was especially a problem compared to getting used to things).<br/><br/>Gerald decided to take it as a sign to take a more proactive approach to life, joining the local neighborhood watch and doing volunteer work to keep the neighborhood safe. It was normal at first, but people greeting him more warmly than usual and helping others out with their problems seemed to change his point of view, and he realized that life is more meaningful when you are right there making a difference for someone.<br/><br/><strong>Likes:</strong> Tinkering, machines, comic books, helping others<br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Idling, idle conversations, sitting on problems<br/><strong>Strengths:</strong> Diligent, headstrong, tenacious<br/><strong>Weaknesses:</strong> Brash, simple, impatient<br/><strong>On's &amp; Off's:</strong> https://elliquiy.com/forums/onsoffs.php?u=36<br/><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Notes</span></strong><br/></span><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Volunteers with the local neighborhood watch.</li><li>Hopes to make a difference in society, hopefully in a heroic manner that did not involve dying.</li></ul><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Powers</span></strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><strong>Machine Man (10):</strong> Gerald has literally became a man made from machine, with his inner workings replaced by complex mechanical replacements that even he has no idea how they worked. This made him stronger, tougher, and faster. Unfortunately, his metallic body is troublesome for dealing with metal detectors, and he has become a lot heavier (so he can't use the elevator unless it's the heavy duty one). His mechanical body can also break if it receives too much damage, and does not heal normally. He can survive for as long as his heart, which has now become a core of sorts, is intact.</li><li><strong>Docking Combination (6):</strong> A more recent discovery of what Gerald is capable of while he was tinkering with his contraptions. He tested holding on to a contraption he made, and it stuck to the hand he is using to hold the device. Some testing made him realize he could move connected mechanical objects as if it were an extension of his body, and even change its form according to his thoughts. This power takes time, however, and larger or more complex machines take awhile to dock into. Lost limbs and body parts can be replaced through this, but takes awhile to fully restore original functions.</li></ul><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Views</span></strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><strong>Evolved: </strong>Gerald figured that while being an Evolved gives one an edge over others, it should be used responsibly to make one's self a better person. Being an Evolved doesn't make a person exempt from rules that society has set in place.</li><li><strong>TAC 6: </strong>Gerald doesn't approve of TAC 6's methods, thinking it would be the reason why the lives of many Evolved are messed up. He has been getting in touch with human rights groups to discuss how Evolved are still people despite having become something entirely different, and TAC 6 should consider a softer approach to dealing with Evolved in general.</li></ul><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Relations</span></strong><br/>Gerald is currently looking for means how he can help out Evolved in general. While his powers are intimidating, he prefers not to get into a fight (as much as he wanted to get things done physically) and find a better way to reach an understanding for Evolved.
