Deus Ex Machina Jrusso's Action Figures

Name: Matrix-13
Gender: Male
Age: Created 5 years ago
Class: Automaton (Steam-powered)
Godly Parent: N/A
Relationships: Edward Littimer – Owner/Partner
Role: Business Advisor, Campaigner, Bodyguard

Personality: When not putting on an act for the sake of selling Edward’s latest con to the masses, Matrix is a bot focused purely on the facts, not putting up with fools and idealists for very long. His analytical nature makes him a quick learner, and he puts efficiency above morality when it comes to achieving his owner’s ambitions.

Appearance: Matrix is quite the large Automaton, his hulking frame built explicitly for combat, but his clothing and facial modifications show his more sophisticated upbringing. The hair mods he requested give him a more human look and the top hat along with the upper portions of a suit help express a rather dapper feeling from this machine.

Gear: Steam-powered limbs, Enhanced brass fists, durable brass body

Abilities: N/A

Combat Skills: Pugilist (Boxing)

Weaknesses: Being Steam-operated, if someone douses the flames in Matrix’s energy core, he will shut down. He’s also a purely close range combatant, so long range fighters will give him trouble.

Bio: Matrix-13 was created for the soul purpose of being a bodyguard, nothing more and nothing less. But his creator left a peculiar imprint on his personality, the ability to quickly absorb knowledge. So when Edward Littimer bought Matrix, the Automaton quickly adapted so that he could excel in the craft that made his owner’s fortune. Matrix grew to be so knowledgeable on the subject of scams that Ed eventually allowed Matrix to be his partner, a promotion which Matrix found suitable. Together the two of them have ripped off quite the number of suckers, with Matrix always being there to defend his owner should any unhappy customers come looking for a refund.
 
Name: Julius Granville
Gender: Male
Age: 33
Class: Human
Godly Parent: N/A
Relationships: TBD
Role: Blacksmith

Personality: Julius is a jolly but often brash man, he’ll be your best friend if you give him coin or a bottle of Whiskey, but if you wind up getting on his bad side, you’d better watch out. He’s got the mouth of a sailor and smells like a brute but he’s great company to have around.

Appearance: Julius is a short and gruff man. Standing at 5’4 his hair is short, black, and spiky, with a full beard complimenting his ice blue eyes. His skin is well tanned from being out in the sun all day and his hands and muscles are well defined from working hard in the smithy. He wears a plaid tank top and red shorts, with a smith’s apron to protect him from stray coal when he’s working and his left foot wears a steel toed boot.
steampunk-human-jpg.1218


Gear: Mechanical right arm and right leg. Mechanical eyepatch with a zoom feature for more refined smithing. Various standard blacksmith tools

Abilities: N/A

Combat Skills: Experienced maul user and can use his smith tools as weapons, including Wrenches, and Blowtorches.

Weaknesses: All of his vital organs are exposed so if you harm them, Julius will easily fall. He tends not to think before he acts, which has landed him in hot water most of the time.

Other Skills: Loves to drink and play cards, even though he’s terrible at the latter

Bio: Julius never really had anything going for him besides his ability to make weapons, be they physical or ranged. His dad was a deadbeat drunkard and his mom barely made enough for her and Julius to get by once she kicked his dad out of the house. So he began selling his amateur weapons in the Moon Level to gain a little extra so he and his mother could live somewhat decently. His products were a hit, so he began to make more and more until eventually, the Granville Smithy was the premier place to get weapons forged on the Moon Level. Some even say that Julius must have been blessed by Narat himself, for no one other than a god could seem to match his smithing prowess.

Name: Dilucos
Gender: Male
Age: Gods don’t age you fool, but he looks to be in his mid-20s
Class: God
Relationships: Sol and Luna- His parents
Aurora – His sister
Role: God of Twilight

Personality: There is only one being who’s seen Dilucos’ true personality and that is his sister Aurora. To everyone else, he’s a polite man, but always seems like he’s putting on an act. Having been the forgotten god for many a millennia, he seems to blend into the background most of the time.

Appearance: Dilucos has taken many different forms throughout the centuries, all of them designed to blend in with the modern world of mortals. His current look has him with blonde hair and blue eyes with a slightly curled mustache. His clothes resemble those of the fine gentlemen in Auroris, a dark blue top hat, long coat, pants, and shoes, with a red scarf and a white button up shirt and gloves.
dilucos-jpg.1229


Gear: He’s got a switchblade hidden in his long coat for emergencies

Abilities:
Night Vision – He inherited his mother’s ability to see in the dark
Shapeshifting – He can shift into an owl, but retains his bright blue eyes
Sleep Powder – Can create a dust that when exposed to mortals, causes them to fall asleep
Shadow Step – Can phase into any shadow and teleport to another area that’s connected to the same shadow
Dazzling Gleam – Creates a flashbang of sorts using the glare of the stars for a quick escape

Combat Skills: Trained in all manner of blades, but prefers to use daggers and knives when necessary. He relies on his powers most of all.

Weaknesses: You don’t need to know that right now young peons ;)

Other Skills: N/A

Bio: His history has been mostly lost to time. He was born only two minutes after his sister Aurora and has lived in her shadow ever since. Despite that, what’s most well known about Dilucos is that his sister seems to be the being he cares about most in the world.
 
Name: Harold Vindicta (Alias: Mr. V)
Gender: Male
Age: 30
Class: Demi
Godly Parent: Vindicta
Relationships: TBD
Role: Assassin/Bounty Hunter

Personality: Mr. V is a cocky and abrasive man, he takes his lineage very seriously and will flaunt his abilities when given the chance. He tends to keep away from friendships and serious relationships, keeping all conversations small and superficial unless talking business. He’s also very selfish, only caring about a situation if he’s being paid to or if there’s something in it for him.

Appearance: His hair is neck length and starting to grey from trauma, his entire face is covered by a brass mask that’s been surgically attached to his face and has one prominent red eye on the right and an eye hole on the left. He wears a brown bowler hat, black pinstripe pants and vest, a white button up shirt, boots with brass plating and a brass pauldron on his left shoulder.
demi-jpg.1236


Gear: A wrist-mounted Flintlock Pistol, an experimental Spencer Repeating Rifle with a scope for long range fire. Two pouches, one containing lead shot and the other containing cartridges for the rifle. 3 smoke grenades

Abilities: Infrared Vision – Is able to switch his vision type to see heat signatures

Target Lock – Once he’s found his target, he is able to pinpoint their location at all times

Heat Vision – A blast of heat energy can be emitted from his eyes

Combat Skills: Basic hand-to-hand combat, master marksman

Weaknesses: His pride can be turned against him, bad-mouthing Vindicta can cause Mr. V to fly into a rage. He prefers long range combat, get in close and he’ll have little to defend himself with.

Bio: The son of the Goddess of revenge, Harold was destined to a life of blood. His father taught him how to kill at a young age, and told him that to become strong, he must become one with the metal of Vindicta. Harold’s father brutally carved up his face, including blinding his right eye, and had the top surgeons of the Sun Level implant a brass face mask to replace what Harold had lost.
Harold never forgot the trauma that was inflicted upon him though, and once his father’s training was complete, Harold enacted the will of his mother’s domain, and took revenge upon his father, brutally scarring him with his heat vision before ending the old man’s life for good.

He took on the alias, Mr. V. The V standing for Vindicta, his mother’s name and his surname, so that everyone knew which goddess he truly served, and has gained renown as an efficient bounty hunter that is to be respected and feared throughout the Sun Level.

Name: Ophelia Kournova
Gender: Female
Age: 28
Class: Demi
Godly Parent: Logos
Relationships: Briar – Student
Role: Noblewoman, Mentor

Personality: Ophelia is a woman who likes to see both sides of an argument, able to read one’s emotions and react to them accordingly, she also has a bit of flair to her if her interest in dueling is any indication. She can be both a proper lady and a hopeless romantic, and above all else, is a wonderful diplomat.

Appearance: Her skin is fair as porcelain, with hair the color of sand and eyes to match. Her dress is made of the finest silks and fabrics in the land complete with a lovely hat. Her most head turning feature would be her bust, which is quite large and has entranced many a man.
deus-ex-female-jpg.1253


Gear: Her father’s blessed rapier, its steel shall never dull.

Abilities: Lie Detector – She can see through any lie that one would try to tell her
Empath – Can sense the emotions of a person she’s interacting with

Combat Skills: She is an expert duelist, proficient with the rapier

Weaknesses: Is only good in a one on one fight. Tends to stay very passive in a conflict, leading some to call her indecisive.

Bio: Unlike most Demi’s, Ophelia’s father, Logos, was around for the first ten years of her life. He taught her the ways of logic and the sword, leaving behind his blessed blade to prove her divine nobility. She was raised in the courts of Auroris and earned quite a reputation for being one of the smartest and most eligible nobles at court.

Her mother had wished to find her a suitor ever since she turned 18 but no one ever proved good enough for her mother’s high standards. In the meantime, the house of Artifex made an alliance with the house of Logos and asked for Ophelia to mentor their daughter Briar. While Briar has proven to be a pain, Ophelia has weathered the adolescent’s antics with the patience of a mother with her firstborn, only serving to make her reputation even better.
 
Name: Sylvia West
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Class: Human
Godly Parent: N/A
Relationships:
Aaron Wilson – Business Associate (She calls him Alfredo)
Lucian Summers – Business Associate
Adelaide Bennett – Airship Engineer

Role: Airship Pilot

Personality: Sylvia is a girl who’s always looking for a bit of excitement. It’s why she gravitates towards people who live on the wrong side of the law, they free her from the boredom of routine airship runs. She’s also easily amused by the antics of her friends and enjoys making snarky comments towards them. This may make her seem like a bit of a bitch but she does truly appreciate her friends.

Appearance: She’s a short brunette with shaggy hair, her eyes are amber and her combat garb includes a red blouse that bears the front of her midriff and brown fire retardant pants with brown fur boots. The holster for her pepperbox is located on the left of her pants.
deus-ex-female-4-jpg.1294


Gear: Pilot’s goggles, Pepperbox
Abilities: N/A
Combat Skills: Short range shooting, dogfighting
Weaknesses: She can be a bit of a bitch, she’s not much of a fighter, she's claustrophobic.

Bio: She grew up in a middle class household that could only just afford a bottom floor apartment on the Sun Level. Her childhood was relatively boring until her teenage years when she found her love of flying and came under the employment of the Bennetts. She and the daughter, Adelaide, became fast friends and when her father became ill, Sylvia worked her butt off to help Adelaide pay the bills.

Then at age 19, she met Luna’s Blades, Lucian and Aaron. These two came to her asking for a contact in the Sun Level who could keep them updated on what was happening. With how much she was traveling around the level, she was perfect for the job. They seemed like good guys and she found Lucian rather dashing so she agreed and acquired an extra source of income as a result.

Name: Tobias Vizeer
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Class: Demi
Godly Parent: Sonus
Relationships: Tobias is married to Selena Vizeer, leader of the Scarlet Wolves
Role: Tobias started life as a soldier, fighting in wars. After he was left scarred he became an enforcer for hire until he met Selena and started the Scarlet Wolves. His wife runs the “legitimate” portion of the business, while he takes care of the more violent aspects.

Personality: Tobias was a rather timid boy. The child of Sonus rarely ever used his voice. That was until he was drafted in the war. It hardened his heart and the trauma he suffered after losing both his legs turned into anger. Now he’s a sadist who enjoys nothing more than causing pain to another person. Be it with his fists, guns or his sword.

Appearance: Tobias stands at 6’2, with short brown hair and a clean-shaven face. His pale complexion and dark brown eyes give the image of a man who’s been tempered by war. He kept his brown leather military jacket and wears a dark blue pair of pants, but both of his legs up to his knees have been replaced by mechanical legs.


Gear: While his metal legs are structurally reinforced, there is nothing particularly outstanding about them. He has two pepperbox pistols, and a finely crafted broadsword, forged and customized by the Granville Smithy. It is one of few obsidian forged blades in the world and a present from his former comrades after he lost his legs.

Abilities: Sonic Scream – The one ability he’s discovered, he can let out a scream of sonic force that can rupture a person’s eardrums and cause damage to the brain if the target is exposed for too long.

Enhanced Hearing - Toby is able to hear even the smallest of whispers from people up to a mile away from him.

Combat Skills: He’s well trained in CQC, firearms and sword fighting thanks to his military experience.

Weaknesses: He has a tendency to get lost in the euphoria of causing pain, a high that no one but Selena seems to be able to snap him out of. His love for his wife is well known, and if anyone ever tries to hurt her, he’d fly into a rage and make his primary focus eradicating that fool.

Bio: Born out of wedlock when his mother took a night of passion with Sonus, Tobias grew up in a house with a father who hated him, forcing the boy to stay quiet, never discovering the gifts that his godly parent gave to him.

He signed up for military service when he was 15, desperate to get away from the loveless and abusive household, only to find more pain. He was taught well and made friends, but tragedy struck poor Tobias when at 17, a stray grenade cost him both of his legs.

When he returned home, Tobias was forever changed. Having dealt with nothing but pain his entire life, he made a point to deliver that same pain onto others. He became an enforcer for hire, if an enterprise ever needed a straggling business partner to be taught a lesson, he would be paid to take care of it.

This made him enemies in the Blue Devils, a gang who’s operatives he’d frequently crippled. They caused him much pain as well, but there was a ray of light in the darkness. Selena. In meeting his beloved wife, he saw an opportunity to bring the same pain onto the Blue Devils that they caused to all others. Thus the Vizeers began the Scarlet Wolves, and the moon level has been torn in twain ever since.

Additional Info: None at the moment.

Name: Rennac Navarre
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Class: Demi
Godly Parent: Medella
Relationships: Navyra Maussensmith – Best friend
Sylvia West – Captain
Role: Airship Doctor

Personality: A very level headed individual, Rennac prefers to settle situations with words rather than fists. Though if it came down to fists, he’d be at his friend’s sides ready to heal them. He’s also an intellectual who loves to read and puts that knowledge to good use.

Appearance: Rennac is of standard height, not particularly outstanding in terms of physique. However, he has a very handsome face with wavy locks of brown hair and eyes to match. These eyes are accentuated by his spectacles. His normal attire consists of a brown jacket and matching pants, shoes and gloves, complimented by a white shirt, tan vest, and orange ascot.
dilucos-2-jpg.1356


Gear: Doctor’s scalpel, self-sanitizing gloves, pocket watch

Abilities: Healing touch – Allows him to heal wounds such as cuts, bruises, broken bones and bullet wounds with ease

Hands free surgery – For more complex medical procedures, this ability lets his hands glide to wherever in the body they need to go without causing further damage to the person he’s working on.

Pinpoint Accuracy – Lets him see where the unprotected vital organs are on an assailant, helping him aim for the organs easier.

Combat Skills: Close quarters knife combat.

Weaknesses: Not a long range fighter. Prefers to avoid violence whenever possible.

Bio: Rennac was the latest member of the Navarre family, a prestigious family of doctors well respected in the Sun level. What many don’t know is that his father was never married, having instead caught the interest of Medella herself, thus Rennac was born with natural abilities that should’ve strengthened his family legacy, but the circumstances of said birth ruined the families’ lineage forever.

Ren used the wealth of his family well, becoming well read and highly intelligent, he also put his healing skills to good use, becoming a doctor at a clinic down by the dawn staircase. It was there that he met his friend for life, Navyra Maussensmith.

On a call to pump the stomach of a man in pub who had a bit too much moonshine, he saw the girl engaged in a bar brawl having to fend off some sexual offenders. Aiding her if fighting the thugs off and healing her injuries after, the two became close rather quickly. Eventually, Navyra convinced Rennac to join her in the life of a sailor, she called it the life of a pirate, but their captain, Sylvia West, ran a legitimate business. The job of ship doctor suited Rennac and he confessed that he did love flying through the skies, so the arrangement wound up working perfectly, though no one ever told his father…
