**Character Art: [Default]**

## Starcluster Datapac

Techo's past is somewhat of a mystery to everyone; he's unsure where he really came from. He has two theories about his past; one is that his memories were erased to prevent him from feeling bad about his past life, and the other, due to his similar hairstyle, was that he was once a highschool kid named Skyler who was turned into a Scrap Being. He's not sure if either are true...

Despite his clouded past, he grew up to become an expert mechanic, engineer, and sniper. He's the team's inventor, despite his scatterbrained nature, and has become the team's weapon specialist and even sells his services to pay Command Base rent! His creations include the Laser Rifle, a bunch of spherical modular Techobots, and the tactical program TEC-K, or the Technological Extrapredictive Center of Komand.

As he was taken in by AnthonyM and the rest of the M-Crew, he sees them as his family, especially seeing Ant as a big brother. He never shies away from using his skills to help Ant and co. on their missions, even if he has to head into the line of fire.

## Background

### Early life

Techo's early life is a mystery, even to himself. However, he did set up residence in the Scrap Bin, and learned how to operate a sniper rifle.

### *AnthonyM and the World of Sketch*

Techo is first seen sniping the Mecha Golem that attempts to stomp AnthonyM and Strongarm when they arrive. He inadvertantly saves them and decides to tag along because he had nothing better to do. Upon climbing the Stratosville Stairway for the first time, he snipes a flying monster who was chasing the princess, Blurri, who he develops a crush on after fighting alongside her to protect the palace.

After helping the newly-formed M-Crew take down the Killer Bee, their reputation gained traction. He would devote time into creating new technology for the crew to utilize, including his Techobot Arsenal.

During a visit to Stratosville, Techo was given permission to look through an ancestry document by Queen Cyclum, Blurri's mother, but the document reveals none of his family is alive. The news breaks his resolve, but Blurri and her mother comfort him and say that he is considered family to them for how helpful he has been as both a mechanic and a good friend.

During a random cleanup of the Command Base Garage, he digs through some old files and finds out about the original owners of the base, including the ancient Guardian Sola, the ancient Earthclad Rokkenmazo, his ancestor Zero-01, and the Wind Sprite knight Tornadys. He also finds the resting place of Zero-01's command AI, who was known as the KOMAND. Busted up and unable to operate, it was seemingly useless... until Techo upgraded its firmware and turned it into the Technological Extrapredictive Center of Komand, or TEC-K for short.

After AnthonyM and Shadus's final duel, he finally confessed his love to Blurri, who was absolutely surprised and delighted. The both of them became a couple nearly instantly.

### *AnthonyM and the Faraway Map*

Techo's work on the SS Mixium was in the little bits of technology that made the ship more than a simple sea vessel, including the ship's other Formation Modes.

The ship was a vital asset in collecting the pieces of the Cube of Awakening, and helping the colossus piece the planet back together.

### *Sketch Arena Tournament*

Techo was one of the first fighters to join the tournament, alongside the other M-Crew members and the Gallum family.

### *DLC- Choose Your Fighter!*

Techo and Blurri come to the aid of Mesmorandus the magician to find his pet rabbit before his next magic show. While the rabbit gives the three a difficult time, they manage to catch it.

### *DLC- Mom Squad*

When a group of Darklanders capture Blurri and Queen Cyclum, he comes to their aid, using a few well-placed sniper shots to silently subdue them.

### *AnthonyM and the Multiverse: Crossing RIfts*

Upon being freed from corruption by AnthonyM, he allows AnthonyM to utilize a new TEC-K upgrade; the ability to view the statistics of friends and enemies by toggling on Scan Mode. He alerts his friend about Almafur and Zemadonis stating that they have a new plan.

## Personality

Techo's introverted nature causes him to not take on too many missions, usually feeling at home with machinery. But despite his scatterbrained nature and lack of confidence when not with his friends, Techo is one of the M-Crew's most reliable partners and strategists. He particularly thanks his friends for helping him break out of his shell.

He looks up to AnthonyM like a big brother, and will let his friend know that he appreciates Ant's presence. He tends to just show his love for others in... weird ways. Despite his quirks, Techo is never malicious to anybody unless they threaten him or his friends.

## Relationships

### AnthonyM

Techo sees AnthonyM as the big brother he never had. The two get along so well and Techo can usually be seen outside with him periodically. He and TEC-K are usually one phone call away whenever Ant's doing cross-dimensional work, too.

### Strongarm

Techo and Strongarm tend to butt heads a lot, mainly due to Strongarm finding his tech talk annoying. Despite that, he deeply cares for the general and also admits they work well when they're both coming up with battle strategies.

### Blurri

Techo loves Blurri, and can usually be seen with her whenever he's not alone or with Ant. He admires her positive outlook on the world, and how she saw a hero within his anxious self just waiting to be tapped into. Just thinking about her gives him the strength to wake up each morning and the confidence to face the world.

### Penny

Techo sees Penny as a great friend, always willing to hear him out when he's having tech problems. He even helped her with her glasses from time to time (fixing broken lenses is never cheap, after all) and even added special tech to hers that can give her an advantage in battle.

### Shadus

Techo is the only one of the original M-Crew Shadus isn't on rival terms with; Shadus deemed him "too easily scared" to be pranked. While only a half-truth, he's at least been able to help Shadus through his own traumas by just being a good listener, and has been the only M-Crew member to be on wholly positive terms with Shadus.

### Miss KO

Techo admires her family's engineering, and hopes that he can closer examine the KO Mech. However, he also hopes Kathy will grow into a talented and responsible mech pilot one day. Especially since her cocky nature during fights can be a bit much for him to handle.

### Miss Techna

Techo and Miss Techna are quite the dream team, working together on massive mechanical marvels whenever they're in the same room. He's just happy that she's a great study buddy for this sorta thing!

### Slymu

Techo admires Slymu's skills with junktech, and hopes she could teach him one day. The two are still great buddies when the need arises.

### Zakonu

Techo looks up to Zakonu seeing how the two are both inventors; Zakonu's more alike to Techo than he'd care to admit, funnily enough. However, they both hope Techo grows up to be just as respectable as Zakonu himself.

### Elettrico

Techo sees Elettrico as one of the coolest people he's ever met due to her fascination with all the same games and magazines he loves to play and read. If they had the ability to, they'd chat for hours over stuff while working on a machine together.
