Player Alias: Chris
Character Name: Chromebeat
Allegiance: Autobot
Appearance Description:
Chromebeat is an average sized youngling with chrome and green colored plating and light blue optics. At the age of eight in human terms he is not yet old enough to join the fight directly - and his light plating reflects that. Chrome is a grounder but has yet to acquire an alt mode. Once he does he will transform into a motorcycle of some form.
Personality:
Chrome is a youth with high energy, a chipper personality, and a deep curiosity of the world. Before losing his creators to the war, they placed in him a gentlenesss and kindness that makes him easy to get along with. He carries his creators’ ideals and gentle personalities well, trying to show kindness even in the dark times he was constructed in.
This being said, Chrome is also a bit of a rebel. He greatly desires to help in the war effort in any way possible, even if he can only do so much at his age. He tries his best to help in little ways - but sometimes tends to get in the way of others doing so. That’s ok though, Chrome is steadfast to correct any mistakes he makes and to please adult Autobots around him.
Because in the end - he’s simply a war orphan looking for a purpose in this cold, unforgiving war. And as such he refuses to give up in finding himself a place in it.
Strengths + Weaknesses:
STRENGTHS
Optimism: Chrome, despite all he’s been through is a pure bundle of optimism. He goes out of his way to be the brightness in the dark that some so desperately need. And this is what often keeps him from giving up.
Friendly: Chrome is the type of youngling that doesn’t have a bad thing to say about anyone. He loves making friends with people and is always looking for new opportunities to get to know new people.
Brave: Chrome is an insanely brave little bugger. He’s hardly afraid of even the Decepticons themselves - going out of his way to prove he’s not afraid of getting in the fight or standing up for what is right.
Active: Chrome is a very active youngling. He does his best to get regular exercise and keep in shape. Even if he’s had to do it on his own over the last few years - he’s kept it up and it absolutely shows.
Intelligent: Unsurprisingly, this bubbly little mech is also a smart cookie. He’s constantly learning more about the world around him and loves it. He especially loves learning about history. A subject which fascinated him.
WEAKNESSES
Still Very Young: Chrome is still a little kid at the end of the day. As such, he is still vulnerable to grown mechs and femmes and older younglings. Often needing protection.
Naive: Chrome is the type of kid who likes to see the good in everyone. Something which can make him a little easy to manipulate into getting to trust not so savory people.
Lonely: Chrome is hard shelled and not quick to admit it, but he misses his creators. Though he was protected by the mech who was his Godsire, his spark still aches for real interaction as opposed to the stoic mech he was stick with.
Rebellious: Chrome is the type that would go into battle now if he could. So it’s easy to see him as the type who will do that if not watched properly. As a result he is absolutely a young, but very innocent rebel.
Stubborn: Chrome is absolutely a stubborn little mech. It’s hard to move him from his opinions and get him to do something against his code. Typically he’ll fight you first before he does that.
Abilities:
Chrome is an outlier and his abilities are empathic. He can read others emotions in the form of an aura: Blue for Sad, Pink for Love, Red for Angry, Grey for Neutral, and Orange for Happy. Most mechs and femmes appear neutral unless feeling extreme versions of the other emotions. Some of them are also found to be unreadable for an unknown reason.
He isn’t totally aware of this is something unusual - his outlier status being a bit hidden from others. Adtitionally the only way he can read an aura is through touch.
Weaponry:
His sire’s blaster which never leaves his side.
History:
Chromebeat was sparked to a loving pair of Autobots many years after they had already fled Cybertron. Downtread and Velocile raised their sparkling on their private ship “The Stargazer” with help from Downtread’s best friend, Coldspace as they ventured among the stars and tried to find somewhere new to call home.
When Chrome was young - they were attacked by Decepticons. The scary event quickly ended with his creators brutal murders, leaving him alone with Coldspace to raise him. He spent much of his younglinghood in the mechs care, and while he cared for Chrome deeply he was not much of a sire himself, and struggled to raise him.
Soon before the events of the site, they received the transmission to come to Earth, after which Coldspace took off in hopes of reuniting with the Autobots. Unfortunately for Chrome, things would only take another sour note, as complications during landing caused a sever crash landing.
Chrome managed to survive, Coldspace did not.
This is where we find Chromebeat now. On a world he’s never heard of, surrounded by strange new creatures, alone. And deeply questioning what life will hold for him next.
