S!G Epsilon
Character Description Form: to be filled out for ALL characters
Name: Epsilon "Epi" Antares
Type: Transformer
Gender: Mech
Eyes: Amber
Height: 20'
Description: Same as Gamma, but not caprine in any shape or form. Right-handed. Walks with a small limp due to damage from a racing accident that was aggravated in a hit-and-run by a then Orion Pax.
Personality: Less brash, but as off-beat humor wise as Gamma, he is a kind, soft spoken, but thoughtful mech who helps the S!G Decepticon cause anyway he can with his knowledge of electronic circuitry he acquired while building the instruments he designed for himself and his late twin. Would like to improve the humans' perception of the faction if at all possible. There are times where he just needs to be by himself, contemplating “What if?...”
Likes: The music of Earth, but will call anything of the jazz genre by its sub-classification (swing, big band, fusion) for obvious reasons. While on a mission at Jerusalem, became fascinated with human spirituality. Regards Tasker Alpha as his closest friend.
Dislikes: Hates the Shattered!Glass version of Jazz with every particle of his being, and any other S!G Autobot for that matter: he wants the universe purged of such evil with an almost zealous urgency.
Squicks (DO NOT WANT): Unlike Gamma, doesn't curse at all. Not even “FSCK”!
Other: Being a bit pacifistic, his fighting skills are quite rudimentary. He'd be better as a diplomat than a soldier. Since the massacre, hasn't even picked up an instrument, much to Tasker's chagrin; who himself still plays his own monophonic sax-flute-horn thing whenever possible. If Epi ever picks up a bass type of instrument, they'd have two-thirds of a Morphine cover band!

Transformer-specific Details: add this on if you're submitting a Transformer
Faction: Mirror!verse/Shattered!Glass Decepticon
Occupation: Common soldier, P.R. wonk, electronics genius
Alternate Mode: 1973 Grand Am
Tools/Weapons: Unlike G1!verse and on Gamma, doesn't have a multi-face since he hasn't played any instrument at all since the massacre, and was nowhere near K'Veht at all for anything close to even having one throwing star. Has a dual-barrel pulse rifle with independently phase adjustable charges as his only real weapon.
Preferred Generation: Shattered Glass!verse
History: Practically the same path in life as G1~2007 verse. Was a government underling before the rebellion. In the S!G verse, it was Epsilon who survives the Musidrome Massacre. He accidentally discovers important information about the S!G Autobot faction, but unknowingly is found out by Optimus (who wouldn't know Epi from a cracked engine block in S!G-verse,) who puts a “hit” out on the smaller mech. Arriving late to Musicdrome, he actually witnesses while undetected, the homicidal S!G-verse Jazz kill his younger twin Gamma, his (Epsilon's) love and bonded Silentwing, as well as Torquer. An even tardier Tasker Alpha happened upon an emotionally distressed Epsilon, and offered refuge and safety within the S!G Decepticon faction to his bandmate, where Epi found badly needed comradeship among the ranks under S!G Megatron.
