CHARACTER CREATION: DOCTOR MECHA

Doctor Mecha is one of the main antagonists of the third volume alongside Vogan.  He is the head of Vogan’s Research and Development Division as well as Vogan’s right-hand man.  Unlike most character in the series, Doctor Mecha is not a neohuman.  Instead he is a human consciousness inside an android body.  He is a representation of a mad scientist and specializes in robotics and cybernetics.  Mecha has a history of performing human experiments by turning them into either cyborgs or androids, including himself.  As a result, Doctor Mecha is often escorted by a band of cybernetic soldiers he created from his experiments, each one with their own set of abilities.  Because of his devout adherence to science, Doctor Mecha strongly believes that mechanical beings are superior to organic beings.  While creating him, I drew inspiration from a person that I hated since middle school and by basing a character off of him, I was given the chance to get back at him in a healthy way.
