PERSONAL ACCOUNT
NAME: (Brother) Silverado LT Trail Boss 4x4
[Originally named Yota for the hubcap he was left in, his old model name was retired once he became Mechanic-Roadbound]
GENDER: Male
DEPARTMENT: Auto N Tires
AGE: Early 30s
APPEARANCE: He is of average height and build, but with skin a deep brown like a fresh quart of holy oil. Beneath his coveralls, the traditional and sacred garb of the Mechanics, he has the hard muscles of one who would be Roadbound and the scars from training and fighting along side Counter Staff that prove his worth.
His head and face are shaved clean to prevent the wrath of the one called Osha, a being that while wishing safety for all, will punish those that are not.
RESUME
Who his manufacturers were is unknown to him as he was left as a fresh new model, swaddled in cloth and resting in a hubcap before the Office of the Chief Mechanic. As a child he was raised by the Order of Saint Haynes the Great Mechanic, and unsurprisingly was headed for the Service Bays; another Mechanic to praise the words of the Lords Automotive.
On his sixteenth model year, as he was readying himself to go from Apprentice to Journeyman, Mechanic strange portents began happening in threes all around Autontire, usually when he was near. The Chief Mechanic, the Parts Manager and their subordinates retires for several cycles to consult the holy texts and to try and understand the meanings.
On the sixth day they emerged from seclusion with an announcement that sent ripples through the whole of Autontire. Young Yota was a champion of the Big Three, the most powerful of the Lords Automotive, as their God-Cars could be found in many of the holy Service Bays. The raising of a champion, could also only mean one thing, it was time to go beyond the boundaries of Autontire and discover the fate of the Lost Crusade.
From that point on Yota was to give up his Model Name and adopt one from one of the great God-Cars. He began training in the use of arms and armour along side the valiant Counter Staff that defended Autontire from hostiles, as well as continuing his Mechanic studies; and by his eighteenth model year, and his confirmation as a Journeyman, he was declared Mechanic-Roadbound, the first one seen in Autontire since the Lost Crusade was launched many, many model years prior.
His tire armour, made from the finest gifts from the mighty Kumho and Goodyear, was made into true Roadbound armour, with the addition of metal plates fashioned from the body of a God-Car. These plates were actual Crusade plate from the armour of a crusader who must have survived whatever befell them and returned home only to fall to injuries mere days from Autontire; his body being discovered and returned home by a long range Counter Staff scouting patrol.
Suitably armoured, armed and equipped with his essentials, Brother Silverado set out from Autontire to spread the word of the Big Three and the other Lords Automotive, and to hopefully find answers to the fate of the Last Crusade.
For as long as anyone can remember Autontire has been in constant conflict with the Cult of the Smiling One. While that holds true for most everyone inside the Wal, Autontire seems to take a larger amount of their ire on a consistent basis.
Long ago, when Autontire was at the height of it’s power and controlled dozens of isles, the Chief Mechanic of the day decided that the Cult needed to be dealt with once and for all. In this decision, he created the Mechanics-Roadbound to wage war on the Cult and cut it out at the root. Sadly this was not to be, and with the loss of so many young and strong, Autontire’s power waned. The Chief Mechanic upon realizing what he’d done, surrendered his holy office and went out into the Wal as a humble Mechanic to preach, make penance and just maybe, find redemption.

RECEIPT
PERSONAL GOAL:To discover the fate of the Lost Crusade
LIKES: The sound a fresh bottle of holy oil makes when opened.
New tools, bright with possibilities.
DISLIKES: Smilers
Losing (another) 10mm socket
REPUTE: Autontire has had trade with other departments from time to time, and on occasion a Mechanic may head to a sympathetic department to spread the Word, but a Mechanic-Roadbound has not been seen in living memory.
HEEL: His direct and honest nature leaves his rather vulnerable to those that have less trouble with lies and falsehoods; and the same goes for a fight. His meets his problems in a direct fashion, which can be an issue if the problem is an agile one.
CODE: Speak and act honestly. Protect those weaker than yourself, and show no mercy to those that would do you harm.
QUIRKS:(Unique traits that your character is known for doing such as collecting ears off their dead enemies, always ordering their drinks with a single cube of ice, whatever strange things that immedietely makes them distinct from everyone else.)
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
(What skills does your character have that allowed them to survive this long without dying? One thing that you may be noticing here is that I'm not including any flaws in here. That's right. You wanna know why? Because, I believe having many flaws is just an excuse for an roleplayer to switch between them willy nilly and disregard them. Therefore, there is only one, great singular flaw that will inhibit your character every step of the way. Any of the skills that you have has to be justified by the Department you came from and your character's backstory. )
[Two Handed Melee] ► A skilled fighter with his cammace, he can crush most anyone unlucky enough to get in it’s way.
GROCERIES
(Your character's equipment. Include as many things that you think are necessary for your character. I want the most wacky shit you can come up with. But, be reasonable, however. Don't make your character carry a microwave that can turn into a nuclear bomb.)
[Armour of the Roadbound] ► Using the same tire armour as the Mechanics-Wallbound and the Counter Staff, the armour then has added to it plating taken at great reverence from the bodies of one of the God-Cars that are parked in the sacred Bays. Icons of the Donor are attached around the waist before the armour is anointed with holy Penzoil.
[Cammace] ► A camshaft for a V8 securely zip-tied to a length of metal from the leg of a collapsed shelf. Long enough to be used as either a walking staff or a two-handed weapon.
