Description CALEB ARENTZ:
An American Meda-fighter who works at a Medabot Maintenance and Customization shop based out of Florida. Getting his start at a young age, Caleb always had a deep fondness for older Medabots, specifically KBT models. However, due to their scarcity, his father was unable to purchase him one. Instead, his father surprised him by purchasing him an odd FOX Type Medabot from the short lived Fortunes series based off the Agadama/ A-Gedama model. The two quickly grew to be fast friends and a capable team. When not working in his shop repairing Medabots or Kitbashing custom parts, Caleb enjoys robattling around town with the hopes of going league, deep sea diving, urban exploration, and generally prowling around with his friends.

TOGI:
FOX-TYPE MEDABOT
FEMALE
Togi was Caleb's first Medabot and as such has the longest history with him. Somewhat full of herself, Togi has a rather strong sensitivity in regards to the large round belly that was a part of the Fortunes product line, and is quick to become flustered and catty towards people who point it out. Despite the prideful and braggadocios front, Togi is a rather shy Medabot and prefers to remain steadfast to her owner's side; grateful of his friendship as reassurance despite her self consciousness. Togi is styled after a Mermaid and a Kistune to create a "Water Fox" motif and is specialized in laser based attacks and accuracy as well as aquatic combat.

DRACOMETA
DRA-TYPE MEDABOT
MALE
In Japan, Robattling is about the fight; the skill and the teamwork between Medabot and Medafighter. In America, Robattling is focused more on the thrill and the spectacle, favoring two on two to three on three matches per person in a knock down battle of power and skill. As such, team battles are far more common in the states, and the closer to the more urban city of Orlando that Caleb and Togi ventured, the more times Robattles saw the pair fighting at a disadvantage against more than one opponent. While Caleb showed promise in tactical coordination, Togi's effectiveness was greatly hampered outside of water, and obvious weaknesses began to arise while in battle. To correct this and offer him the chance at going pro, Caleb purchased a brand new DRA type Medabot from an Orlando shop. Dracometa is a soft-spoken, respectful, and honorable Medabot who specializes in aerial bombardments and fire based attacks, with an odd personality quirk. Despite never having been activated in Japan, Dracometa has a very strong affinity for the culture and is well versed in the history of the land, and has a near obsession with dragons: being thoroughly bemused by the fact he is one. Unlike the more brash Togi, Dragometa is very dutiful and jumps at every order he's given with an otherworldly dedication; that is however, until he doesn't view a fight as being fair. When fighting an opponent without long range weapon, Dracometa will become extremely apologetic towards his Medafight and instead engage in melee combat. This is not something his is particularly talented at, and irritates Caleb to no end. That said, when an opponent shows a dishonorable or otherwise distasteful method in robattling, Dracometa will dogmatically peruse them until they have been defeated; using every (respectable) means at his disposal. Togi and Dracometa get along relatively well while and function very effectively as a team.

BUTO
KBT-TYPE MEDABOT
MALE
After one of his deep sea dives with Togi, Caleb discovered a strange Beetle Medal that had long been lost to the world. Unlike modern medals, the medal lacked a clean golden finish and looked almost more stone-like in appearance. Curious to see if the medal worked, and optimistic about the potential acquisition of a third member to allow him to qualify for the local leagues, Caleb sought out the oldest Medabot he could find, in the hopes the medal would be compatible. A lead from a customer lead him to a shrine where an original model KBT type had been abandoned and since decorated to serve as a statue/ decoration to some of the local children who came to the shrine. The arm parts had been nearly completely destroyed, the leg parts were nearly entirely eroded, the tinpet was worn out, and the shoulders had been decorated with roman candles. Talking to the owners, the old Medabot was given to him and raced back to his store. For the next three weeks, Caleb spent every moment he could attempting to repair the derelict Medaparts and Tinpet and fabricating replacement parts for the parts which had been destroyed by the elements. In the end, Caleb kitbashed a KLN type arm to the left arm with modifications to operate better with a KBT type, a rocket barrage set of shoulder armor modeled after the way the fireworks looked, and styled the legs and right arm after KWG parts while salvaging as much as he could from the original parts. After three attempts with the tinpet rejecting the old medal, the old machine powered to life revealing a rather naive, good natured, and gung-ho Medabot which was affectionately dubbed Buto. Upon his activation, Buto was relatively curious about things around him, and because of the stories Caleb had heard from the World Championship about Space Medafighter X and Ikki, Caleb became increasingly convinced that the ancient Medal inside of Buto would grant him the same power (though with no real understanding of how it worked himself). With Dracometa and Togi soon voicing excitement at the possibility that Buto somehow possessed some sort of ancient knowledge, the unsuspecting Buto got swept up in the hype himself and began to believe that he somehow did possess some kind of ancient wisdom or power. With everyone excited by the idea and wanting to test out what the newest member of their team could do, Buto excitedly agreed to take on Togi and Dracometa at the same time to observe the true nature of this ancient power. The robattle lasted a total of 56 seconds involving Buto attempting to do every random thing that popped into his head (while his eyes were closed) and resulted in his near immediate defeat and shattering of any idea that the medal's power was directly manifested through Buto. Specializing in barrage attacks, close range combat, and possessing the strongest armor and defense of the three, Buto quickly adapted to his role in the team and became fast friends with everyone. However, because of his old design and heavy armor; despite Caleb's attempts to latch onto the speed of the KWG-Type, Buto is lacking in speed and has poor accuracy at range as the four machine guns on his left arm lack the ability for precise aiming.

yeah that's something you need to think about and make your own headcanon about it since this concept wasn't explained at all in the show or in the games.
I made my own headcanon that's explained here and there in the part of the comic where Altair was a human and Hummer was a kid (probaly around page 120-130, but the information are scattered all around the comic).

My main thing is that I don't want to make Buto seem too OP or like a Metabee clone. That was one of my major problems when I was younger and trying to make my Medabot OC. It's either be a clone of Metabee or a horrid amalgamation of Arc-beetle's parts.

lol I feel like I'm imposing too much by asking so much of your opinions, as I'm sure you have enough characters of your own to work on. But I'd welcome your two cents on how ancient medals affect medabots, work, or how to tackle the whole topic in general/suggestions for Buto, I'd deeply appreciate them. I know the Rare/ancient medals make the Medabots much stronger than regular ones. I know I want Buto to be good natured if not gung-ho for battle. I sort of imagine him being like that kid on the playground who would buy into hype too easily to the point where you could get them to eat bugs or something stupid if you really hyped it up. I just welcome the opinion of someone whose worked in the universe more than I have in regards to giving him any special attribute.

Indeed, it's very hard to not make a medabot OC too op. Hummer is actually OP so I'm not the right one to ask advice about it lol. About rare medals it's all about your headcanon, I don't think it would be right to impose my personal headcanon to you so I'd rather tell you to play the game and/or read my comic from the beginning and build your own idea about what rare medals are and what they can do!

I think you're being too hard on yourself! It's my opinion that you balance their power very well throughout the series! Or at the very least the bits I've read! And I'm really looking forward to getting into that game you sent me! I'm hoping they have Kantaroth! I'm just curious about story elements beyond the Medaforce. I'm thinking that despite his Naivety, Buto's medal would allow him to be sort of insightful in very select moments, or it would somehow affect his overall personality.

thanks! Sadly there is no kantaroth in the game. Metabee is the only beetle in the game, other than the longhorn beetle Ambiguous. from medabots.wikia.com/wiki/Ambigu…

What a unique and strange looking Medabot!! The fact it has missiles in its head too is neat too! Thanks! lol though I think I'll go with Metabee just for nostalgia sake. Papyrak is pretty cool looking though too!
