Crushmatic

"The purpose of existence is simple: crush or be crushed"

From the earliest moments of his memory, Crushmatic found solace in the act of building. The process of shaping ideas into tangible forms spoke to a primal instinct within him. This affinity for creation led him down a path that saw him crafting weapons of mass destruction for The Organization. However, Crushmatic was not one to simply follow directions; he sought to innovate, to push the boundaries of his craft.

The turning point in his life came with an engineering mishap—a catastrophic explosion that banished Crushmatic to the forgotten outskirts of the Crystal City. Among the heaps of junk and the company of fellow outcasts, he discovered a reflection of himself in the discarded remnants of the technological world. It was in the rubble that he developed a sympathetic affinity for outdated gadgets and broken things.

Scavenging for survival in the unforgiving wastelands, Crushmatic honed a unique skill: the ability to create renovation from ruin. He learned to breathe life into discarded remnants, fashioning weapons that rivaled even the most state-of-the-art equipment. Amidst the forgotten and discarded, Crushmatic found purpose in the act of rebuilding and repurposing.

The call to rebellion came from an unexpected source—Etherage, a fellow rogue who recognized Crushmatic’s talent and the shared desire to challenge the oppressive system that had taken everything from him. The opportunity to join the rebels as a weapons maker proved irresistible, a chance to turn the very creations that were once his downfall into instruments of defiance.

General Crushmatic’s journey is a tale of transformation, from a builder of destruction to a redeemer of broken things. In the rebellion’s arsenal, his creations stand as a testament to the resilience of innovation in the face of oppression. Amidst the echoes of forgotten outskirts, Crushmatic forges a new purpose—one that crushes the chains of the past or risks being crushed by the weight of a system that underestimated the power of redemption.
