Character Name: Lockon Meshwire
Lockon Meshwire is a robotic humanoid created by SilvCo, and designed by Silverman himself. It was created during the Cult Pandemic of Terminal 6, but has stopped appearing due to leaving the sector (In character. Out of character I was told to stop using it due to "immersion").
However, I wish to bring this character back, because I believe it could give plenty of new roleplay opportunities both for the Citizen/Resistance side and the Combine side.
I know there has been an issue with immersion, however I have a counter arguement: Half Life 2 has it's very own Robotic character, that being "D.O.G", who is a protector of Alyx. Along with that, Portal and Portal 2 are both tied to the game Half Life 2, and what do both portal games have? Sentient Robots such as: Glados, Wheatley, Turrets and the Personality Cores. All of which show some levels of sentience.
Along with the fact that Silverman's character has been operating and roleplaying with the company "SilvCo" for a while now, being used on different servers before even Astronet was a thing, and has been mentioned in both roleplay and event scenarios multiple times! Not to mention that multitude of people on the server, before I was told to stop using Lockon, were very fond of this robot!
Of course, if this Character Request were to get approved, the usage of said Character WOULD BE LIMITED FOR ROLEPLAY SCENARIOS/EVENTS ONLY!!! (Unlike last time, where I used it almost every day when I got on the server.)
In my opinion, letting SilvCo and Silverman produce these robotic humanoids, because they are used via in-lore acquired resources, along with the fact that the designs of the robots fit into the world of Half Life 2. (Of course, with limited usage for every character, but that depends entirely on Silverdude, those are his characters. I was given permission to try and get permission to use THIS SPECIFIC character on the server.)
