MPC#50 Contest 1B / AndroMeramon

AndroMeramon was born from those strings of data that interacted with each other. Taking the form of a Meramon with his left side completely mechanized, this Digimon stands tall but maybe only on the outside. His right side kept burning bright and strong with a fire that gives energy to the left side of it. His left shoulder is big, maybe too big for the rest of his arm. Mechanized muscles are hidden underneath a layer of laminated steel that is then covered in a leather-like skin. His forearm is the one left of the Andromon that got deleted in the process and again, it can look out of place. While, to be honest, everything looks out of place on this Digimon. His left leg got tubes and all kind of straps of metal wielded one on top of other. One would think that the tubings are his weak point and they aren't exactly wrong. The tubings act like a small cooling system to protect its leg from overheating. His left feet is maybe the coolest part of this Digimon as it loses temperature by touching the ground. He wears the mask of an Angemon that was also deleted in the factory, it is maybe the part of him that is giving him his sense of justice.

This part machine, part flame Digimon moves slowly. It is easy to see that his new half is slowing the other half. Due to that, he runs awkwardly and can barely jump. But what he lost in full, he gained in strength. With his new and more powerful muscles, he can lift way more weight than a simple Meramon but maybe not as much as an Andromon. When angered, the metal parts of it turns red hot but also crackling with electricity. Steam exits from the joints of his left side as the steel get hotter and hotter. Some may think that he would overheat but it does not. If anything, the heat fuels back into the right side making burn brighter than before. But again, speed is not his strength. His mastery over fire and electricity are his key points.

AndroMeramon can use his right side to burn thing either by throwing fireballs or just a stream of flame. As the fight goes on, he actually gets hotter but not exactly stronger as his vision might get blurry from the steam and his temper might break giving the term seeing red a new meaning. His best bet is to stay calm and not rush. Besides, he can't outmatch a large number of Digimon to a race and he knows that very well. His signature move is to spin his left hand into full speed making it cracking with energy and then shoot a bolt of lighting at his target. While not exactly very precise, it is a very fast attack that may or may not scare other Digimon. This Digimon does not like to fight but he is still someone not to anger. While his fire side is perhaps more vulnerable, his Digicore protected by layers of steel on his left side. But if the fire would stop burning, AndroMeramon will shut down and most likely get deleted.

While being the only AndroMeramon, or at least that's what he thinks, he is prone to nightmares from all of the raw data he is composed of. Memories from before the factory haunt him and he has a hard time connecting with other Digimon. While he doesn't mean to be rude or anything, he is just fighting his own demons. Maybe he will never find out while he turned out that way. Maybe it was an accident or maybe it was part of a greater plan. This is a question to which he would never get answered. He is patient in most time but when he gets angry, he is hard to stop. One could say that he still has the heart of a Meramon and that the other half is merely an armor, a shell of metal. They are not entirely right or wrong, His temper is much calmer than the regular Meramon but it is true that the machine side of him lacks a sense of pain or any kind of senses. However, if the left side would be the shatter, the Digicore could be affected and thus, ending the lonesome life that he has.
