The infamously eccentric resident of Koloradoland (Colorado, USA), as well as the owner, operator, and complete shareholder (all 6 million shares mothafuckaz) of the Salida, Montrose, Pueblo & Greeley Railroad Company of Colorado


Commonly seen in 'Stridah' form, as a Green, White and Grey, (and lately, Black and Green and White light bars, ala of the world of Tron, The Grid), 55ft foot tall Three legged android synth, I can be found patrolling important points of my rail line; surveying, watching trains go by, studying both dispatching and schedules of said trains, as well as the actual mechanical operation of steam powered locomotives and rolling stock, and when necessary, helping ward off trouble in various forms. (Typically Political and Governmental, I have come to find...)

As Stridah, and to the great disappointment to those who dislike my presence, (Mainly military forces, though I have recently sided with multiple NATO countries for my occasional involvement in search and destroy missions, usually at my own convenience too,) It is exceptionally difficult to immobilize me with any conventional physical means, whether of projectile weapons, explosives, or environmental hazards.


How?

Synthetic Uthartalium Plating - It completely withstands Impact, Blast, Heat/Cold and Electrical Damage. There have been many occasions that I have been struck directly with missiles and bombs of various sizes, only to leave a large blast mark on my exterior, and a crater on the ground around me.

Imperfections on the plating can also be simply burned off, but along with other tricks up my three-legged sleeve, I won't reveal how they are done.


ANYWHO, when not guarding or roaming the grounds around my railway, I can be found almost anywhere across the globe, studying architecture of both buildings and viaducts, thwarting military actions, and when the need arises, causing mischief via property damage.

(As you can imagine, those interests sadly conflict when engaged in the occasional bout of open warfare. Also, when I want to take a casual stroll down the street of a grand, bustling city to eye the skyscrapers and study the rail networks, the police and military forces don't ever agree to my visiting, and end up attempting to shoo me away, often unsuccessfully.)

99% of all research attempting to better understand my behavior and identify weaknesses, has failed so far, and though it is frustrating and expensive for the world governments, it is quite hilarious to me.

As a Dragon, my lesser used, and considerably different non-human form, I am much less technical, and am typically very hard to locate, as I pursue places that are far from civilization.


My intellectuality is particularly prominent in this form, and during the times when I am alone, out in unpopulated lands, is when I do my biggest thinking, which can range from Railroad management, to the future, past, and in many cases, people I know, and the things I wish to seek.


If I am spotted by a human while in Draco form though, it is very easy to fly away, or in the case of being near cliffs, I can dive, and soar out away from whoever was trying to document me up there.

If I am confronted, Be wary of the multi-bladed tail - 'Tis rather sharp...



So that's that. Obviously I don't need to describe the details of my humanoid self, partially because I won't anyway, MAINLY because those of you that know me, have a pretty good idea of what I'm about...
