Character: Jet Link/Codename "Cyborg 002"
Series:
Cyborg 009 (2001 Animated Ver.)Age: 18
Canon: Welcome to Black Ghost, an organization bent on dominating the world through bi-winning the world's arms race. From within these death merchants emerge nine unlikely "heroes": the 00 cyborgs, living weapons inhumanely created from people who were all unwittingly kidnapped. Their reward? Humanist angst, and exceptional super powers meant for mindless slaughter--"gifts" they’ve decided they'll use instead to bring peace to the world by fighting injustice, one ridiculous henchman scheme at a time.
Jet is your quintessential all-American bad boy: brash, cocky, and confrontational, with a side of dubious moral fiber. But no bad boy is complete without a heart of gold--Jet has an unshakable sense of loyalty and a surprising commitment to social justice. Jet’s childish, egotistical dreams of being a "hero" manifest through his fervent compassion for people in need. However, his execution leaves something to be desired, as more often than not his penchant for maintaining a rough exterior portrays him as something of an idiot... a quality which may also just be part of his well-rounded, endearing personality.
Each cyborg has their own unique abilities; 002, Jet is aptly named: he possesses the powers of flight and super speed.
Sample Post:
All right, buddy, cut the crap. I don't care if there's plenty of room to go around, when a guy checks out he expects to be leaving--gone with the goddamn wind! As much as I’d love to stick around this lovely place, I got business to take care of. People to meet, places to go, cool wind in my hair, and all that jazz. Sure, I could grace the folks here with my dazzling good looks and irresistible charm, but between you and me, this just ain't my scene. In any case, I don't need to go around explaining myself to the likes of you. Hey man, this is the 21st century now, and the last I heard purple gorilla suits just don't jam with the ladies. Or any one else.
What kind of sicko joint makes their guys run around in ridiculous get-ups? I just answered my own question, didn't I. Listen, "friend"--oh, you got a name-tag, real cute. Real threatening. Nothing like a bouncer who introduces himself... "Hello, my name is Drew P. Wiener."
Oh, real funny! So funny I forgot to laugh! I guess I should return the favor, and introduce myself, huh? Hey, very nice to meetcha, HEYWOOD JABLOME? Or as my friends like to call me, Howboutaknucklesandwich Asshole?! Screw you. --Relax?! Oh, I'm plenty relaxed. Come a lil' closer, and your face can get real intimate with my super laid-back fist. Not everyone gets to see me this pleasant. Plus, hey, you get to go around after telling everyone you got punched by the great Jet Link! It's an offer you can't refuse.
Yeah, yeah, ya don't do negotiations, gotta take it up with the boss. There are a few choice "words" I’d like to have with this director fella, and by words I mean, heh... I'm sure you don't need me to spell this one out for you. So show me to this almighty director of yours already. Come on, if you're so sure I'd lose, what's it to you?
That's more like it. The old wizard behind the curtain set-up, huh? Whatever's behind there, you betcha I'm ready for it. So, what's it gonna be? Mad scientist, indestructible dinosaur robots, communist lawyers--I've seen 'em all. You can hide behind that thing all you want, but I'm gonna be right here waiting when you're done playing chicken. Let's get ready to rumble.
--a chick?! You got a lady kept behind there for your own devious...! All right, buster! I'm only going to say this once: a man’s got a line, and you just crossed it. So come on out, because I got something real important to say to you, mano a mano. That's face to face, just FYI.
Come at me, and I'll show you how fly I really am!
