Name: Gustav
Alias: The Knight of Coins, the Battlefield Gambler
Race: Full-Conversion Cyborg (Human-Based, No organic material)
Homeworld: Terra/Gaia/Earth/Sol-3
Age: 235 Terran Years
Gender: Male
Dimensions:
Height; 2.75 Meters (8.25 Feet) Tall
Weight; 160 Kilograms (320 Pounds)
Special Ability:
Flicker Defence System; A miniaturized FTL engine device connected to a sophisticated threat-detection system, the Flicker uses the FTL travel device to rapidly move Gustav between all nine directions he is capable of moving on the horizontal plane; creating a "primary" central image and eight "clones" that appear to be semi-transparent and flicker to the human eye. Because of this, the most effective way to eliminate him is a sniper attack or other such unpredictable assault. EMPs also work wonders.
Weapons:
Mono-Particulate Blade; Constructed from an unknown non-metallic compound, this Estoc-like thrusting sword has a crugiform blade ending in a needle-like tip. All four edges of the weapon and it's tip are self sharpening, and do so down to a mono-electron edge capable of painlessly slicing through both fleshy tissue, and bone, with little effort.
Talon System; Hooked into the clawed digits of Gustav's left hand are high-powered thrusters and retractible cables. These thrusters and cables are semi-prehensile, lending well to usage both as a ranged means of attack, and for extremely secure gripping of objects.

Profile:
Visual Description; A large, semi-reptile inspired machine, Gustav was once a human, but chose to abandon his flesh in favour of the increased power of a cold, mechanical body. Generally, his fully-anatomical mechanized body is covered with luxurious silks and furs, blue being a favourite colour of his present in the interior velvet lining of his leather greatcoat. His face is roughly resembling of a crocodile's, with a fully-prehensile tongue with a synthetic rubber-like exterior sheath coating it. His legs are digitigrade, terminating in sharpened blades of talons, and the tail extending from his backside has a protective tip covering a multitude of cables for interaction directly with machines.
Personality; Exceedingly nice, until one defaults on payment to him, Gustav is a very giving man, handing out great loans from his personal fortune... if only to break the borrower's knees should the be unable to pay it back long after the agreed date. When tending to his employees, he tends towards a slower, clear tone of voice and a method of hard love. He helps those of his service who need it, but will not molly-coddle them when it is not needed. Some may see him as a hardass, others as a fatherly figure.
History; Originally a member of Terran organized crime groups, Gustav is an example of a Don that splits off from another's power and takes his friends with him as his own employees. This act brought him into conflict with his prior employers... whom he quickly and efficientl disposed of in ways that werem ironically, taught to him by the victims. Nowadays he is an immensely successful businessman who uses his Liquor company as a front for his syndicate's illegal activities behind the scenes, and as a way to launder their money discretely.
Other Data:
Pets; Gustav keeps several snakes, including an extremely large and venomous Gaboon Viper as pets.
Weaknesses; Due to his synthetic body, Gustav is weak to all standard ways of damaging technology excluding hacking and water damage, in addition to this, he gets angered easily when things do not go his way... which they rarely don't. His near-supernatural luck has also made him far and beyond the cockiest being in the known galaxy.
