Hyperlaser - Phighting

Hyperlaser was raised to be a soldier and nothing else, and he’s currently a mercenary working for Blackrock, he does not want to be affiliated with the faction and has personal reasons for working under Blackrock. He's trying to move past Blackrock and his trauma but something is preventing him from doing so.

Pronouns - he/him Height - 5'8

Hyperlaser wears an armoured helmet with a blacked out visor. Blue stripes run down either side of the helmet, and a pair of blue and black antennae adorn the helmet in place of horns. He wears a grey suit with a blue collar, closed with a button on his right side. His right sleeve has two short horizontal blue stripes on the shoulder, while the left has two dark grey stripes that run vertically down the whole length of his arm. His sleeves end at white cuffs with blue buttons, completed with black gloves. He has black pants that run down to grey boots, marked with more blue accents on the sides and soles.

Underneath his armor, Hyperlaser has burn scars all across his body.

On the surface, Hyperlaser presents himself with a stern, no-nonsense disposition. Some of his interactions with other Phighters consist of him scolding or questioning them for playful and careless behaviour on the battlefield, with the intention of getting them to focus on the task at hand. When read closer, however, it becomes apparent that he doesn't do it out of annoyance, but rather from concern that his fellow Phighters will be lost in a similar manner to the people from his past. He has PTSD and experiences hypervigilance.

When not focused on the battles before him, Hyperlaser becomes rather curious about other people; much of his dialogue is him asking other Phighters about themselves, usually in regards to their weapons and skills. He shows a greater amount of concern for Katana than anyone else, and tries to coax him into slowing down and talking about his problems.

Despite wanting to leave Blackrock in the long run, he still takes his work with them seriously. He does not feel guilt about the deaths he has caused working for Blackrock.

Hyperlaser's 'antennae' aren't actually his horns, but rather a part of his helmet. He was caught in a traumatic incident that resulted in severe burns, blindness, and the loss/damage of his horns. The burns are sensitive to the touch. He wears the helmet so he can see and not out of insecurity. He is physically incapable of crying.

Hyperlaser and Katana are friendly towards each other. They are drinking buddies. They help each other get through their problems.

Hyperlaser does not like Subspace, but remains neutral to him in their interactions.

Excluding deities, Hyperlaser has killed the most amount of people. Hyperlaser has a cat named Princess
