Conatus/Alpha

Alpha is a character in Conatus and the second character made by Somebdoy495. It is the 10th dlc character added to Conatus, and the 20th character in Conatus, period. 
==Background==
It appears, once upon a time, Grimnore had automatons participating in a war of some sort. At least, that's what can be gathered from the machines. Each of the automatons act like they're in a war, some groups of automatons battling other automatons, some trying to claim land for their masters, and some trying to gather supplies for their bases.
However, one automaton was decommissioned, until a mechanic took them in. They repaired the machine, and when it came to, it no longer saw a war. From that point onwards, it was taught about the modern world of Grimnore and given a name, Alpha. However, other automatons made eventually conquered the mechanic's home, eliminating him and driving Alpha away.
==Appearance==
Alpha is a humanoid automaton made out of cold steel. Some of the cold steel has been replaced with newer sheets. It has two green bulbs for eyes. Along the midsection of its legs, arms, and chest, it has green streaks. It has a golden emblem in the middle of its chest, with what looks like a book emblazoned on it.
==Personality==
Alpha has a hard time replicating proper human emotion. It tries to find a correlation between the mechanic's emotions and what's happening to replicate a proper reaction. It rarely perform the proper reaction.
==Gameplay==
Automatons are built to last long and battle. Most are also built more for dodging attacks rather than taking a lot. Alpha is one of those automatons. While it may be able to deliver punishment, he's also easy to tear apart. As such, it's recommended that it stay light on its feet and know when to back away from a fight.
Furthermore, instead of hunger or stamina, its vigor is based on how well maintained its body is. Alpha can't eat most edible foods, so, to repair itself, it'll need to find batches of oils or scrap metal to repair itself with. Oil tends to fill up vigor, and scrap metal tends to heal it.
