Winston and Marie:
http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/muppet/i...e/Podlings2.jpg

Quote: “I say! You, my fine sir, are naught but a pitiful waste of space on my earth; and an everlasting burden to everyone and everything around you that has to so much as even pass a glance at your disgustingly hideous face. Away with you!”

Appearance: Despite being based off the hideous Cockatrice of legend, Sol Cockatris is actually quite elegant in appearance. Resembling an anthropomorphic dragon that has the head of a rooster with a spiny crown; Cockatris has large, draconian wings and a long, barbed tail. He sports an extravagant, ornately detailed suit of armor (think Fire Emblem) of gold with silver trim. And did I mention he wears a monocle over his left eye?

Most strikingly, though, is the light he radiates. No matter how dark the area is, he always appears as if the sun is reflecting off of him… and let’s not forget the various sparks of electricity that are always seen crackling all over his form.

Cockatris’s personal attendants, Winston and Marie, are golden colored Alpha Sniper Joes – the former wears a bow tie, and the latter, an apron. They are fitted with jetpacks so that they may serve their master in the air, but are not intended for combat purposes.

Likes:
-Tea and biscuits
-Stealing valuable items
-Money (just for the sake of having it)
-Weathervanes

Dislikes:
-“Brutish savages”
-Ugly people, and those with questionable tastes in fashion
-The fact that the other Fiends are stronger than he is
-Chicken (he would never lower himself to cannibalism)

Pros:
-Classy and sophisticated
-Can effortlessly fry any machine around him – in many cases, this includes robots.
-Is an extremely fast flyer

Cons:
-Vain and mean-spirited
-Is stubborn and has very high standards
-The weakest of the Fiends when it comes to raw, destructive power

Background: One of four Reploids personally commissioned by Theta to serve in the Alpha Army as a counterpart to Neo Arcadia’s Four Guardians, who controls the element of light and electricity. Sol Cockatris, while lacking in the raw, destructive power possessed by the other Fiends, makes up for this shortcoming with his sheer speed… and his abilities to attack robots’ internal circuits directly.

Personality: Sol Cockatris presents as a cultured (if not effeminate) gentlemen with class and sophistication, but not so much courtesy. Arrogant and snobbish, he will go out of his way to belittle others, in the most mean-spirited and downright offensive ways possible. He tends to ramble on ceaselessly, all while maintaining the most irritatingly smug attitude one has to deal with.

His attendants don’t say much - their dialogue usually consists primarily of “As you wish, Master Cockatris.” More or less the stereotypical butler and maid respectively, Winston and Marie are completely dedicated to their master, and will appear before him with a mere snap of a finger.

Weapons:

Lighting Rod – An intricately crafted rapier that he usually keeps sheathed in a scabbard on his belt. Primarily used for show, it is rarely used for actual swordplay… but instead for the absorption of electrical energy, much like its namesake. It can also drain energy by being thrust into an electrically powered target (robots included).

The barbed end of his tail serves these same purposes as well, in addition to being a more efficient close-range weapon itself.

Powers and Abilities:

Basilisk’s Gaze – Cockatris’s eyes glow with the brightness of the sun itself… Any robot, reploid, or otherwise mechanical being to bear witness to the fiend’s gaze will have their cerebral circuits temporarily scrambled by the intense light energy he emits. Its effects? Targets will either be unable to move, or find it extremely difficult to move for a set period of time.

Solar Wind – Cockatris can emit a geomagnetic disturbance that is able to knock out the power of any and all nearby devices. Even personal weapon systems and communication devices will be rendered useless for a set period of time.

Helmet Streamer – A large, blue, brightly shining, loop-like projectile comprised of powerful magnetic energy, fired from Cockatris’s buster arm. Any robot who survives impact will temporarily lose their vision, have their movement impaired, and their weapons and communication systems rendered useless.

Electric Absorbtion – The hallmark of the Four Fiends is their ability to feed off of and absorb their natural elements. Using either his rapier or his tail, he can draw in oncoming electrical attacks, or forcefully take energy directly from a source. This improves the power and effectiveness of his abilities.

Maneuverability – Flight capable, Cockatris is extremely quick both in the air and on his feet.

Tidbits and Trivia:

-He refers to himself as “Sir Cockatris the First.”

-As you might be able to tell by looking at his abilities, Sol Cockatris is based off of those super-annoying RPG bosses that plague you with wave after wave of status ailments. Also, his element is derived from Chrono Trigger, where the light element encompasses electricity as well.

-As if he wasn’t enough of a stereotype to begin with, Sol Cockatris speaks with a fake British accent. Needless to say, this tends to drive actual British people crazy.

-About the only person he doesn’t look down upon is Theta. And Alpha, if he were to be around still…

-He might not be as strong as the other Fiends, but he is definitely the prettiest.~ 8)

Sample of how you will role play this character:

It was another evening at Maverick Hunter Outpost 33. With the sun tucked away beyond the horizon, the workday for the afternoon shift wound down, as many prepared to exit, thusly making way for the night shift. However… something was up. Usually, the night workers would have been here by now…

Just then, the lights in the building began to flicker out, one after the other. The views on the monitors that adorned the command center turned to static, before they too had shorted out. The operators tried frantically to restore the power, but to no avail. Just then, the darkened room slowly illuminated… the Hunters turned their heads, to see none other than the source of the light – a glowing, armored fiend of gold, appearing as something straight from the pages of ancient legends. The crew immediately panicked.

“I say!” Spat Sol Cockatris, observing the terrified workers. “What a gaggle of ill-mannered savages! I will not have such tomfoolery in my presence!” The monster’s eyes began to shine like fireballs… then all within his vision had frozen in their tracks.

“H-HALT, COCKATRIS!” Cried a voice from behind the fiend. Cockatris spun around in place (his tail slicing apart the frozen Hunters it its way), then blasted the reploid who called his name with a Helmet Streamer attack. The surviving reploids raised their weapons, and Cockatris responded by spreading his wings. He activated his Solar Wind, causing the reploids’ weapons to shoot sparks at their owners before ceasing functions. Sol Cockatris then delivered his Basilisk’s Gaze, paralyzing those Hunters as well…

One by one, the fiend forced his Lightning Rod through each of the reploids’ bodies, drawing in their energy. When the last one fell, Cockatris sheathed his rapier, taking a look around the room. “Mm, yes,” he muttered to himself. “These tacky bodies aren’t doing any favors to compliment this room’s interior…” He then snapped his fingers. “Oh, Marie!”

Without a moment’s hesitation, a golden Sniper Joe in an apron appeared beside Sol Cockatris. “Marie,” Cockatris instructed. “All these bodies, are, dare I say, hideous, tacky, and repulsive. Darling, if you would please… clean up this mess. Posthaste!”

“As you wish, Master Cockatris.”

Heh, you know, with his aristocratic demeanor and attitude he kind of reminds me of Mr. Pewterschmidt, Lois's father on Family Guy.

Quick question: What kind of effect would it have on humans?

Well, no. My question is if a human stares into the Basilisk Gaze, what'll happen to him/ her?

Nothing really noticeable at first (save for covering their eyes due to the brightness), but assuming the strong, magnetic properties involved, one could assuming there would be radiation poisoning involved.

Magnets don't have the capacity to harm people unless they ate a lot of shrapnel for breakfast...

This face will be lying in bed next to you.
Just FYI, I "contributed" a pic for our favorite snooty Kentucky Fried Chicken Dragon. I even found one for Winston and Marie. Aren't I generous?

And yes, I felt it was worth Necroposting.
