      PEACEKEEPER PROFILE

        Personality:
        Drift tends to be a social chameleon--he does and says what he has to do to fit in. It's a survival mechanism. Part of what he shows to others is a purposeful act, designed to make people feel more at ease around him and to try and make up for his former reputation as a Decepticon assassin. This pretended bright, sunny disposition that verges on the saccharine that combined with genuine deeply held spiritual faith, makes him come off as a kind of flower child. He's eager to please and is, to a certain extent, fairly malleable to other's wishes and social pressures.

        That projection hides a lifetime's worth of trauma and guilt.

        Drift is deeply hurt person desperately trying to be normal. Drift's life history is full betrayals and disappointments. He used to be somebody, valued for his speed on a race track and the looks his chassis gave him. Eventually, somehow, he found himself without purpose. Without a patron. He was dropped into the extensive and aptly named Dead End to join hundreds if not thousands of other Cybertronians considered unimportant enough that they didn't even merit energon. He made friends among the downtrodden, and the best of them, Gasket, was gunned down by the police for interfering in an unjust beating.

        He believed in Megatron's vision of a new Cybertron, where alt-mode, function, class, and origin didn't matter. Instead, he got killing, killing, and more killing. He waded hip deep in blood to build a new world until he realized that no matter how many or how quickly he killed, the better world was never going to be built this way. He left the Decepticons and for a time he was alone, until he joined the Autobots. He thought he found a place with the Autobots and struggled to fit in. He made a new friend named Rodimus--and then Rodimus let him take the blame for orders he had given and Drift was exiled. Drift has lost or been betrayed by everyone he's ever cared for. Trusting that people will hold faith with him, or even that they will live to keep him around is something that's hard for Drift to do.

        Beyond his sunny facade, when Drift ashows more of himself, he tends towards sarcastic jabs, brattiness, and generally being kind of a little jerk. Of course, if you're seeing that from him it means that you in part have earned his trust--and that he feels comfortable lowering his guard around you. He also has a genuinely horrid temper that he struggles to keep in check. For a large portion of his life, problems were solved by violence or threats of violence and in those times, having a fearsome, borderline unhinged temper was an asset. He does his best to contain this now through meditation and mindfulness, but under stress he's liable to snap. On top of all that he has mountains and mountains of guilt for all the innocent deaths he blames himself for, whether he looked at them over the barrel of his gun or whether he just feels guilt for being part of the horrible monstrosity the Decepticon movement became.

        His struggles with his anger and guilt mean that he tends to come off as over-correcting in the other direction--good vibes only please, your aura is rancid and needs to heal.


        Game Plan: It's going to be rough at first. Drift is going to have a hard time believing he's dead, for one. He's also going to probably struggle with regrets and the feeling of leaving too much unsaid (RATCHEEEEET T_T) or undone (also Ratchet winkwonk) but he's going to do his best to get his bearings and hope that living on in this simulation will at least help avert further disasters? Also expect him to get really moody and try and find robot booze to drink.


        Interested in: Teratophilia/xenophilia (he's a giant alien robot), D/s themes, aphro, orgasm control/denial, romantic shit, emotional shit, hurt/comfort. Sizeplay, probably? He's like.. 24-28 feet tall. Robot dicks. There's more I'm sure but that's what comes to mind right away.
