Broken Richter

==OOC History==
Broken Richter is Rhekarid's forty-ninth character, and ended its career at 6-3. He is the brother of Perfect Erich.
==Character Biography==
Richter is part of a team of vigilantes that fights against the practices of the Krantz Corporation, which secretly experiments with using living human tissue in the construction of machines in order to improve their efficiency with parts that can repair themselves or adapt. When his brother is held hostage by the company Richter goes berserk and attacks, but is too late to save Erich, who has been dissected and built into a war machine. Instead, Richter changes his brother's programming, telling him to destroy Thurmond Krantz rather than the vigilantes.
Suffering a nervous breakdown, Richter is unable to recover from the experience and again attacks upon hearing that Krantz is attempting to rebuild elsewhere. This time, however, he returns to the team as a machine himself, half-built and broken by unknown circumstances. His friends, unable to bear seeing him in that state or to destroy him, tell Richter to simply never allow himself to suffer, and let him make the decision himself. Instead, this turns him to the city, as his only intact concept of pain is through observation, and he translates the order as preventing the suffering of others.
==Equipment==
Though incomplete, Richter is still partly a war machine, and is equipped with an extremely powerful beam weapon and formidable combat skills. No longer human and not entirely mechanical, the remnants of his mind are too far away for virtually anyone to reach or interact with.
