Morris Stone

Physical Age: 15
Actual Age: 47
Gender: Male
Race: Android
Sexuality: Asexual
Relationships/Crushes: None

Appearance: Tall and slender with thin frame. His black hair come down just to his ear and is rather messy. Behind his glasses his eyes are a dull hazel colour. His attire consists if whatever he can find, often meaning jeans and t-shirts. His skin is unnaturally smooth and in the back of his neck is a small port for wiring.

Strengths
-He doesn't feel pain and as a result is able to push his body to its limits
-He can interact with most electronic systems and interpret raw code
-His bones or chassis are made from a very strong reinforced titanium alloy
-He can simulate use of or use most program's
-He is absolutely crazy when it comes to science and will do anything if he believes it will help develop it

Weaknesses
-His battery life is approximately two weeks, if uncharged he will go into hibernation
-Strong magnetic forces can damage and corrupt his memories
-His skin, being totally synthetic, does not heal naturally when cut or damaged
-He is very heavy due to his build including metals and other substances
-An unnatural obsession over buttons and pressing them

Fears
-Being unable to conduct his experiments
-Someone stealing his ideas
-Nothing else as of yet, but seriously, what do you expect? He can't actually die as far as dying goes. Mainly because he had backups containing his memories and knowledge. It would be as simple as downloading the data into a new body through an automated program or getting someone to do it after his current body was destroyed.

Personality

Morris was and still is a very sensible and well mannered person. He used to spend hours labouring over his research, driven onwards by the adrenaline and excitement which comes with discovery. Whilst conducting research or working he was extremely persistent, ignoring as to whether something might be impossible or nonexistent. Because of this Morris often overworked himself and forced himself to become rather stressed about almost everything. Fortunately during his times out of work he adopted a relaxed and cheerful attitude, this helped to relieve most of the stress. Until recently he was an extremely antisocial shut in who only cared about himself and his research and because of this had very few friends.

However, Present day Morris is an entirely different individual in several ways. He's far more polite and interactive with others but still lacks anything above basic social skills so conversations can be difficult. He can't stand being alone or stuck in one place for more than an hour. Though despite being different and slightly more childish there are a few things about Morris which have never changed. The most obvious being how serious he is about any work he is given.

History

Morris was a genius with a passion for science. He spent his youth dreaming dreams about the great discoveries he could make and how they would benefit the world. As he grew he slowly developed these ideas which often meant putting a lot of time into research and experiments. Almost all of his equipment was homemade, parts scavenged from around his city glued, duct taped or welded together. It was because of this quality of equipment that most of Morris's theories couldn't be proved or developed. He refused to go to the government for contracts, funds or equipment as he wanted to keep the credit for everything he did. Years passed like this, experiment after experiment with the occasional pause to grab something to eat. None of Morris experiments did anything major or useful until one day there was a power surge. He had been researching the brain or, more specifically, how someones brain could control another body it was linked too. For this purpose he had built an extremely realistic human robot with nerves, skin and even something similar to a brain. The bones were made from a strong alloys and the body has mechanical lungs and organs that were controled by the brain and powered by a large battery that filled its ribcage. Though seeing as Morris had been to lazy to incorporate the use of blood into the system the presence of these organs were pointless. It's movements, like the human bodies, were controlled by muscles and electrical impulses but because the muscles are not organic they do not deteriorate and are failry strong. The doll had taken him years to make as every little detail was very important. The outcome was a doll that resembled him in his teenage years, except with a few differences in size and build.

Morris first experiment with the doll was the last in his own body. He had built a device that he could wear on his head, much like a helmet, and plug into the the bodies neck. Moments after activating the device and opening the interface a power surge occurred, short circuiting all off the equipment in the lab and causing the lights to go out. As Morris went to pull off his helmet his hand grasped on thin air. He assumed the helmet had called off and at this got out of his seat to make his way to the power box. At this point it seemed like just another experiment that had failed and Morris was pretty sure that the short circuit had probably damaged most of his equipment. But when Morris turned the lights back on and returned to the lab he found not a doll but his own body in his seat. Looking down and examining himself he realised that he had been somewhat successful but in the process confined himself to this body. Any attempts after this had proved fruitless as on every occasion something seemed to go wrong or not work. Eventually he began leave his home more frequently and roam the streets, consulting other facilities on what to do. Most didn't believe him and those that did had no clue as to how they could help.

Currently he is searching for any great scientific mind like his own or even someone who can fix this problem of his. He has a few leads and knows of several research stations which may be able to help him, Unfortunaley he doesn't have the money to reach such places.
