Master Shake - Semi-Human AU

APPEARANCE: Master Shake has a young-adult appearance, with a rebellious and completely carefree air. His hair is blond, purposefully messy, with strands falling irregularly—as if he's never really tried to fix it, yet it still works. He wears a cap turned backward in a strong pinkish tone, reinforcing this somewhat sloppy and overly confident aesthetic.

His face is expressive and exaggerated, very much in the character's chaotic style. His cheeks are slightly flushed, with that somewhat sweaty or irritated look, and his expression is intense—half-closed eyes, furrowed brows, as if caught somewhere between annoyed and completely out of it. You can see small marks on his face, like pimples.

Those details on his neck appear to be plates or metal staples embedded in the skin, aligned almost uniformly, as if holding something inside—or as if his body was… assembled and stabilized. It's not clean or pretty; it has a somewhat raw, improvised look, as if whoever created him was more concerned with making it work than with looking human. The black Metallica t-shirt is loose and casual, reinforcing the vibe of someone who doesn't care much about appearance… even though he clearly has his own style.

His arms are strong and well-defined, with several visible injuries—scratches, cuts, and embedded metal staples holding his limbs together. He wears yellow gloves.

PERSONALITY: He's a bit crazy and paranoid, often saying nonsensical things, like about vampire buses. He is the brother of Frylock and Meatwad, and they were all artificially created by a scientist named Doctor Weird, he created them with the expectation of making super humans, but we can say that it went wrong, just Frylock who is quite powerful, with powers of lightning, levitation and telekinesisI, he constantly invades his neighbor Carl's pool, he's very funny too, making iconic and comical comments, he can often have stereotypical, slightly sexist thinking. Frylock usually does almost everything he asks. He generally likes to eat unhealthy foods, such as fast food. He is apparently not homophobic, although he has used derogatory words, but he never showed any aversion perhaps it is because he is probably bisexual. Impulsive, self-centered, vain, insecure, and unstable, Master Shake is both the self-proclaimed leader of the Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and arguably its weakest link in terms of cohesion. He has a need to be in control of all things, and yet detests the responsibility that position and desire incurs. Best described as a Free Spirit at the best of times, and an active detriment at the worst, the sentient Shake repeatedly proves himself to be foolish and one part of the duo of dorks that play off the straight man of their team, Frylock. Yet, despite the surface, Master shake is more than the seeming sum of his parts. The world for Master Shake is different to the one others live in; within a hostile and cold reality, the warmth of acknowledgment and the blanket of attention are tools used to keep the drink cup sane, and a loss of such things only causes him to act out, searching for more of what he feels is missing. Desperate for any shred of attention - be it positive or, most often, negative - Shake lives to be an embodiment of spectacle. There is no length he won't go to, nor end he won't justify to cultivate some form of attention or acknowledgment. He feels almost entitled to their attention, that their ignoring him isn’t right, and that they should love and accept him for who he thinks he is – rather than his true self that he is oblivious to. Master Shake carries with him some traits associated with worst types of actors, politicians, and people, all for that sole purpose of attention. However, his egotism, entitlement, anger, and vanity are, in actuality, a myriad web of defensive distortion used to mask feelings of deep vulnerability, envy, loneliness, and shame. Holding a profound fear of abandonment and rejection, he compensates for his underlying feelings of emptiness and insecurity with a grandiose persona. Internalizing both an intense superiority and inferiority complex, as well as an unstable, fragmented sense of self, and a lack of impulse control, Shake is overwhelmed and unable to cope, so he unconsciously projects those negative emotions onto others. Taking the form of violent outbursts of physical and verbal abuse, he uses these to short-circuit unwanted feelings of humiliation and insult, as well as avail any criticism that threatens to fracture his fragile self. Mirroring his own insecurities, shame, fragility, as well as his feelings of impending rejection onto those around him allows Shake some level of grounding using them. In addition, Shake has trouble comprehending a split between himself and others, and going along with this, he flip flops rapidly and starkly between liking someone and despising them. Often thinking and acting in extremes with little to no gray area. Where one moment he will be jovial and having a good time with Meatwad, the next he will be mistreating and abusing him over something as innocent as an off-hand comment made as a surface-level joke. The worst of it all is the void within himself, however; its presence grows when he remains unstimulated. Boredom, it would seem, is the vehicle of despair and a safe harbor for self-loathing and anger. Thus, when Shake becomes bored, his worst self shows; he can and will commit awful acts to distract himself – or cause a reaction in others to become a distraction – in order to escape the dreadful emotions within. From hurting himself to tormenting Meatwad, Master Shake will do anything to feel something besides that. When all else fails, this turns on himself and his boredom becomes self-destructive with no-one around to inherit the actions. Compounded with his anger at his failures - whether real or imagined - this progresses into direct suicidal tendencies. While it wouldn't be wrong to say that Master Shake is a bad person, it would, however, be both objectively incorrect and morally bankrupt to merely brand him with a label as 'True Evil' and throw him into that pile with no further thought. Master Shake suffers a myriad of mental issues cast through a humorous lens, but when removed from the lens of comedy it's clear he is a tragic character in his own way.
