A Fate's Tale:
What makes a man? What defines him? What is the reason he continues to struggle?
Where some pretend to have that struggle, some actually do. Some suffer because of things outside of their control.
Mikey 'Beefcake' Aldern is one of those people. He's fought and suffered. And what does he get for it?
Dogtags, a pat on the back, and a note saying his PTSD wasn't service related after he watched his closest friend blow up two meters away from him.
Nowadays, the veteran is on a constant bar crawl, unable to rip his lips off the brown bottles. One day, however, while about to be kicked out of yet another bar, he was informed of a chance to make things right.
The Ritual.
He's three days sober right now, holding a gun he hasn't ever seen before. Not his from before. But his for now.
He won't let Dean down. Dean's family down. Dean's daughter down.
He will get his second chance at life. Mike won't fail him again.
General Info:
Beefcake is a bullet sponge who's game plan mostly involves being in the enemy's face, and as such greatly benefits from defensive items. He's also in dash bucket 3.
Beefcake is a Minotaur, specifically a mix between a Human and an Ixian (making him a chimera). He entered the US military at 17, and was discharged at 25 after he took extensive damage from the explosion that killed his friend leaving him blind and deaf on one side of his face, his arm recieving heavy scarring.
He's a hair shorter than abrams, but his horns make him 'technically' taller. He's got a natural strongman build, with dark brown fur all over his body except his palms which have a pale blue colored skin showing. He has somewhat long head hair which he ties into a gordon freeman esq ponytail to keep out of his way.
He usually wears work pants balled up at his knee, plain steel horseshoes for his hooves, and a tank top usually stained with a mix of oil and beer from his part time job as a mechanic. His primary weapon is an MG42 he's named 'Angry Bees', which he fires from the hip in his normal animations, putting the stock against his shoulder when ADSing. His reload is very tactical, with him taking proper procedure to put a new belt in, also using proper trigger discipline and only putting his finger on the trigger when he's shooting/ADSing. He also does not slow down when shooting like Ivy thanks to his large frame. His light melees are him using his weapon to slam the stock forward, with the followup being using his right hand to do a quick jab. His heavy melees use his leg for a charged kick, slamming his hoof forward.
Personality wise, he's very abrasive, trying to push people away from him so they don't get dragged into his own problems as he really can't take letting someone else down. However, he does crumble when someone insists, and will occasionally go out of his way to ask for help from people he sees as strong enough, like Abrams, Shiv and Ivy for the more prominent ones.
I do think he'd hate Billy for giving Chimeras a bad name. As well as folks like Maggie and Calico, whom he views as 'supplying a cycle of violence that does nothing but kill innocent people'. He's also not fond of Bebop, although it's not really the automaton's fault that Beefcake doesn't really trust high explosives.
The first image listed is his stat sheet, with the other images being of MG42s. However, Beefcake's is slightly different, having the trigger guard removed to allow his fingers to press down on the trigger, as well as not having a bipod.
