Description

Scimitar Man was an OC I was working on back in the day, before I ended up getting busy with life and other stuff.

I’ve held him off for a bit because I wanted to give him a proper introduction, but life is only getting more busy, so I might as well shed him some light now!

Most of what I wrote about him is in my old phone, but I remember most of the main stuff.

Background: Scimitar Man is a wind-based robot master created by Dr.M and uses a giant magical sword that was stolen from an exhibition.

The sword was said to hold the power to control winds, however when it was stolen and given to Scimitar to wield, the blade would do nothing. It was simply a sturdy sword.

Dr.M was flustered by all the trouble he went through to construct Scimitar for the very purpose of using the swords power that he tried destroying the sword in sheer frustration and shamefulness. However, when Dr.M managed to actually managed to make a crack on the blade, minerals came from the earth beneath it and sealed the crack closed. So it WAS magical!

Further study had to be conducted, and Dr.M thought that if Scimitar were wield the blade for a while, its power might be unleashed.

However, the blade was quite heavy, even for it’s size (which was already big!) making wielding the blade normally difficult, slow, and inefficient for Scimitar, so Dr.M thought up the function of using centripetal force to use the blade.

Scimitar Man would then be modified to have various rotary mechanics throughout his body to allow him to spin his body in many ways to get the most out of his blade.

Spinning the blade so rapidly allowed Scimitar to draw out a small portion of the blades power, being able to throw out slicing winds, and summon small tornadoes. However, there was much more to behold from the blade, and Dr.M proceeded to test Scimitar until he saw further results.

Scimitar was given the data of many ancient warrior arts as an attempt at figuring out if using the blade in a specific way would draw out the blades power. None of them triggered it.

Personality: Thinking that making Scimitar more like a human warrior could be a solution to the blade, Scimitar was made to have the heart and soul of a warrior, using data records collected from many warriors of the past.

Brave, and always willing to accept a challenge, Scimitar focuses on honing his skills, trying to surpass and learn from his flaws.

Being a warrior, he has a sense of honor, seeing no reason to slay an opponent that can no longer fight. He finds it better to allow his opponent to live and learn, so that they could teach Scimitar something new on their next encounter.

However, Scimitar would often be ordered into slaying his opponents, and so a bug was formed through the confliction of his loyalty and honor, forcing his debug protocol to abandon his loyalty functions, with his own internal AI taking over.

Scimitar would then come to the conclusion that it was best to leave his creator and take the blade with him so that another would not be built to use it. When he was sent into an epic battle one day, Scimitar ceased the opportunity to cover himself and flee away.

He would wonder off on his own journey.
