## History

### Origin

Emphasis, along with Ofa and Gamma were all made after 18 days of work by Dr. Shiro, once he had finished the trio, he hoped that a world where both humans and robots can co-exist with each other to bring in a new age of humanity and robotics. After 1 week, Emphasis is seen speaking with Shiro on his origins as he said he is very special being a robot of combat and having on a watch that allows him to go into combat mode. Gamma would then begin to turn rogue and turn against his master and those he was with and Emphasis took it up to step up against the robot tyrant, he teleports out and Emphasis follows behind searching for him to defeat him.

### *The Emphasis*

Emphasis goes out to fight out the eight combat robots, starting with Tsuni, the Ninja Robot whose designated weapon is the Dangerous Cutter, a weapon that cuts through the hardest metal and material in the world, Emphasis ends up defeating the Ninja and takes his designated weapon using his Copying System to copy the weapon for his own. He would then continue his journey and meets up with Navi, the Tribal Robot, though Emphasis begins to feel bad on how much she couldn't go for without being under Gamma, but she full-on alleges in and fights the Crimson Robot with her Spear Piercer, a spear hard enough to pierce through anything, she would also be defeated and her designated weapon copied into Emphasis' programming. Emphasis then ventures through a factory where it is hot and dry inside, this makes him meet Torch, the Flame Robot with a very hot personality as the two fight it out as Flame Pillar is the Robots next move to grab, Torch ends up being defeated as well and his weapon being copied in by Emphasis. Emphasis then goes into a cold world where everything is frozen around him, there he meets yet another combat robot named Frost Snap, The Snowman Robot whose capable of withstanding the cold environment around him and battles Emphasis, because Emphasis has Flame Pillar, it is the sole weakness of Frost Snap, falling to succumb to the heat as Freeze Shot was acquired into Emphasis' Copying system, now possessing 4 Designated Weapons. He then ventures into a world of magic where everything was pink and unicorns began attacking him, making his way past them, he then meets Glamourous Lass, the Magical Girl Robot that's capable of using Magical Sparkle as her means of attacking, but because she was weak to Spear Piercer, she too was defeated by the Weapon, and thus Emphasis takes her weapon next. Then, Emphasis enters a haunted mansion where flying books and bats try to attack him, he then meets Mordecai, the Vampire Robot who reveals to him that even Combat Robots can bleed through Blood Plasma, a special tank that allows Robots to feel pain, his weapon Blood Fang was so powerful, yet Emphasis vanquished the Vampire thus gaining his weapon as well. Emphasis would then travel into a electrical arena that is powered through electricity, here Emphasis encounters Galvaism, the Electric Robot, and her weapon Electron Bolt proves to be a challenge to the Crimson Hero, but he ultimately defeats her and takes her weapon. Finally, Emphasis meets his last robot, but yet the weakest one of the eight, Chikutaku, the Trendy Robot that's very distracted in getting famous than fighting Emphasis and is easily taken out and his Sound Note, taken as well.

Emphasis then teleports out finally having overcame all eight robots and teleports infront of Gamma's Castle, there he fights all eight of the robots again, exploiting their weaknesses one by one and overcame them easily. However, he soon encounters a different type of robot along his way, meeting the very fast yet dangerous foe with a high-full of respect, Unvast, the Emerald Knight attempts to one-shot Emphasis due to his sheer speed, but Emphasis dodges in time, the two fight and defeats Unvast, but it was not truly a easy fight at all as Unvast isn't destroyed and teleports out. Emphasis then continues his journey inside the castle and finally meets Gamma and his pet wolf Patriot. Gamma sends Patriot out and Emphasis ultimately defeats Patriot, this enrages his former friend turned enemy as Gamma pulls out his two Gamma Blades and the two finally fight, Emphasis comes out on top after blowing up Gamma's physical body, however with fatigue in the way, Emphasis spares Gamma and says that killing him isn't worth it and walks away, however this was proven a mistake as Gamma's head suddenly floats up and glows sending Emphasis into his own world, the Glitch Dimmension, a world where all Combat Robots can be robocized and be reprogrammed to serve him, Emphasis fights Gamma's form **Patriot Gamma** where it ends with Gamma being blown up by sheer-force as it forcefully sends Emphasis back into the real world and is very severely damaged from the process, Gamma's physical head loses power as Emphasis teleports out back home where Ofa runs up and hugs him as Shiro and Ofa welcome him home from his heroic duties, the trio then celebrate by going to eat Roasted Veggie & Black Bean Tacos, and they reveal to Emphasis while they were gone, they ate Bacon Cheddar Cheese Stuffed Burgers for comfort as the trio go in the kitchen and celebrate.

## Personality

Emphasis's personality seems to be similar to that of his creator, Dr. Shiro. Both share a personality that a world where robots and machines can co-exist together. However after Gamma was reprogrammed to be more smarter and more experience than the doctor, this quickly made Emphasis express more feelings, including bravery and siding with the humans in order to help protect and not harm any life.
