[App]
Character: Tycho Science
Series: Top o Nerae 2! Diebuster
Character Age: About 15
Canon: When space monsters attack the galaxy, what is humanity to do? If you're Gainax, the answer is obvious: get a bunch of kids to fight them with giant robots! In Diebuster, these giant robots are called Buster Machines, and the only ones who can pilot them are a specially-skilled group of youths coined with the name "Topless." Our heroine, Nono, is a not-quite-so-giant and rather more humanlike robot girl whose dream to become a space pilot takes her to the organization Topless, the Fraternity.
There she meets headstrong, impulsive Tycho. Once an bright-eyed child who believed she had limitless potential as a Topless, Tycho was struck by tragedy that her special powers couldn't prevent. She grew up into a snarky teenager with a brash temper and a deep cynicism for the world's dependence on the Topless. But somewhere underneath, she still has a caring soul and a desire to protect others. With a little help from our robot Jesus and a lot of self-realization, she comes to believe once again in all the good that her powers are capable of.
Sample Post:
Ugh, pleeee~ze. Talk about doing it wrong! So you say you want to become Topless. Do you dolts even know what being a Topless means? It means being awesome enough to pilot a Buster Machine, and you know what you need for that? This thing called limb coordination. And with the way you just threw your torsos about three meters away from your legs? I don't think that's going to be working out for you a-ny-time soon. But hey, if that's the kind of "topless" you'd rather be, it's okay by me. Ho hum, no big loss. Even if you had the potential, what points would the Fraternity give me for recruiting failures like you? Have fun running around in pieces while I'm out defending the Solar System.
Hey, I hear those footsteps! I said "see ya," and that doesn't mean "follow me." You had your chance, and you lost it along with your ability to stay in one piece, oka--aaaaaaaay?! What the heck! You... reassembled yourselves! Now, that's a different story. A skill like that could really come in handy in one of those explosions you'll risk getting caught in if you join us.
That's right, I'm giving you another chance. But speaking of explosions and danger! There's way more to being a Topless than good motor skills. Joining the elite takes the bravery and willpower to fight gigantic, nasty monsters in the cold reaches of space! You guys ever been out by Titan? You know, the moon? Yeah, I didn't think so. So okay, take the lake monster you call Marcy -- the one everyone's terrified of. Imagine, oh, a few thousand of her, each maybe twice as big and with twice as many arms, too. Now imagine you can't get away from them just by keeping a safe distance from some piddly little lake. You know what you'd have to do then.
Pretty scary, huh? I bet you're wondering, what gives you the bravery to face all that? Well, that's where you have to remember what being a Topless is really all about. We want to save people as many people as we can, to protect and preserve humanity. That's what drives us. Do you have that wish?
Wow, talk about a quick answer! I've never seen so many heads nodding in unison before. And... oh, a jar of strawberry jam? For me? Hehe, all I did was talk; you didn't have to give me a thank-you present yet...
Wait. Hold up a second. This label doesn't say strawberry jam, it says...
BRAINS?!
Okay, sorry, guys. I forgave you for misinterpreting "Topless," but your definition of "preserving humanity" is not going to cut it with the Fraternity.
