Name: RG-0483 "Rocky"
Faction: Sector Rangers
Rank: Ranger
Species: RG-series Sector Ranger Droid
Age: Active for 10 years now, but unlike organic species you should know that age doesn't determine the maturity of a droid very often.
Gender: Masculine/Male Programming
Force Sensitive: No

Appearance: Standing an intimidating seven feet tall (intimidation is useful for preventing criminals in resisting arrest.), weighing about 240 pounds (average for his height), a medium sized red optic sensor shaped like a trapezoid, no hair (obviously) black armor with a Sector Rangers badge on it (can be detached if needed in undercover investigations), and has neon red lights in a Tron-like pattern that is useful also for both intimidation and being mistaken for a criminal in undercover missions. When neither of those are needed, he can turn the neon lights off. His head has the optic sensor in the middle, a vocabulator directly below it, and the shape of his head is similar to a Kaleesh mask. He has no distinguishing marks yet.

Attributes: He is not very intelligent in book smarts, so he obviously wouldn't be good in administration. He has excellent street smarts, however, so he is very efficient in operations nonetheless. He is agile despite his rather bulky size, and is stronger than most law enforcement droids. His "health" is very good, he was built to last. His stamina is excellent due to the force keeping him going.

Personality: He is quick to anger at times, but how this anger is expressed is often controlled- more or less. He is dedicated to keep the Galaxy safe as much as he can. He is very explorative, he likes thinking about the tens of thousands of star systems in the galaxy. Due to this, he can get enthusiastic when he is assigned to an unfamiliar system. Rocky can also be charismatic due to his rather likable sense of humor. This humor is well known when he is with others (Like most rangers, he isn't often with others, so he cherishes the little time he has to entertain people socially) and he sometimes wonders if he would be a good comedian.

He enjoys the satisfaction of bringing outlaws to justice, one way or another. It is not because he likes arresting people, but because he likes knowing that this criminal will not likely disturb the peace of the Galaxy's planets further. He has a disliking towards crime syndicates, and has a derogatory view on Tatooine for being "A desert planet filled with ghettos." He has a conscience toward some less known criminals, only because they are often poor street thugs who think they need to act the way they do. He still arrests them if his orders to are strict enough or if the subject is hardened enough. He is also infuriated by the thought of street thugs' situation, which makes the thought of crime lords boil his oil even greater (because the poverty caused by them are often the sole cause of the thug's lifestyle). He has no sympathy for crime lords who are powerful enough to cause these things, so he doesn't think twice before placing one under arrest. The only scenarios where he would think twice is if he either is by himself and can't escort the criminal to custody without getting hurt by bodyguards or thugs, or if he is undercover and he needs to keep himself secret. He has shown a dislike of corrupt Senators and their impact on the Republic, and hoped that the corruption of the Senate did not spread (HOPED. But it didn't happen.)

Biography: Manufactured by Duwani Mechanical Products (the same manufacturer of the Republic's temporarily successful Juggernaut Droids) for the sole purpose of becoming a Sector Ranger, Rocky had contributed to well known Sector Ranger cases, one of which being when he helped bring down a small gang of psychotic thieves. He has also been in well known undercover missions, including a case where he impersonated an assassin droid hired to kill a police chief before apprehending the entire mob that planned it. He has visited many worlds, and during his travels had seen the good and bad effects the Republic had on the thousands of systems submitted to it. He grew a dislike to the corrupt representatives the Senate would occasionally receive, but he knew that he had no power to do anything about it. He would sometimes get lucky enough to be assigned to a case where interplanetary crime organizations were involved, and was even successful in apprehending a smuggler who tried to supply the Hutts with Republic data.

Rocky has been active for ten years now, and he has gotten many rewards for the criminals he has turned in. He has worked with bounty hunters before, but only when he can't handle a case himself. Most of the time he is given credit for being a Ranger that has used bounty hunters the least, so he has proven efficiency on his own. Rocky would occasionally get days off when the crime rates seem quieter, and during his days off he would often do stand up comedy in local show stages, where he was paid well despite it being a part time job. His shows have gotten great reviews from critics as well. All in all, he has lived an experienced and somewhat successful life so far, and remains active for duty.

Skills: He is decent at technical knowledge, can bring down criminal networks to weaken the organization in question's power over the InterGalacticNet. He is also trained for combat, so he knows how to use various weapons, including improvised ones. His training has also given him good hand to hand fighting skills, and he can easily restrain a street thug with his bare hands.

Gear: A cheap blaster, a portable hacking device (occasionally), a common blaster rifle as his weapon of choice, and a knife for various purposes, from crafting to stabbing (only if attacked).

RolePlays: TBD

Relationships: TBD

Ship: A small freighter with equipment, spare droid parts, and supplies in the back, has blasters and turrets for defense, and sirens- for obvious reasons.

Droids: Doesn't own any besides himself, but uses various maintenance droid services for his ship that were provided by the department. He occasionally uses a few analyst droids also provided by the department for investigations and briefing on missions.

Pets: None

Kills: TBD

Combat: TBD

Great character. Like it. ;)

Only two things I can think of to say:

"Rank: (Did they explain the ranks yet? Do not approve this character until I know what rank he should be)"

A Ranger is a Ranger. That's all. Different divisions but no ranks.
No other Ranger profiles that I have seen even mention it.

"Force Sensitive: The force is his current power source for unknown reasons,..."
"Manufactured for the sole purpose of becoming a Sector Ranger, Rocky was supplied to the Operations force."

This needs to be explained a little further, I feel. Who built him for the Rangers? The Rangers? If so, Why did they use the Force itself as a power source for a droid?
I can find no references in Star Wars to the Force being used like that.

Seeing as these things may complicate or delay any approval, you may want to edit them out or explain further, at least.

Sorry if it seems like I am nitpicking..

I'll make sure I put "Ranger" in for rank then. And about the force powering him, I will detail that out more, and how I came up with it was a Jedi from the Force Unleashed video game had used the force to control droids of his own to fight against the player character. But yeah, I will explain that better.

@DroidDude123 just letting you know that force being the power source is most likely not going to fly. Sorry man but if you ask around you will find that it is something that I'm sure many will question and because the droid isn't generic you would need to get him approved by the tech admin in the tech forum.

I agree the main thing i see is his power source being the force. From my knowledge shard's were the only things that enabled a robot to have a conection to the force. And shards if im not mistaken are not a usable sentient being here.

They aren't.

That, and if you're talking about Kazdan Paratus, Droid, those weren't droids powered by the Force.

They were bits of trash that were literally just held together with the Force and controlled by Paratus at a distance, not actual droids.

Okay, he isn't force sensitive anymore. His manufacturer is Duwani Mechanical Products, and his rank is "Ranger," so it should be as detailed and acceptable as possible, unless an admin sees anything else.

The "They aren't" was in reply to the last part of your post.

The rest of it was in reply to the author of the character.

Your droid can't be Force Sensitive, and therefore cannot be powered by the Force.

It's still a great character, mate.
No big deal really, changing something as dull as a power source.
I'm really looking forward to Roleplaying with you. ;)

He isn't powered by it anymore. I changed the whole bio to not have any more traces of that idea.

Oh, I'm not saying you are, I'm just clarifying things. Yeah, so other than that force thing and the ranks, is there anything else needed to be improved or changed?
