## Jayce

**Jayce the Cockatoo** is a member of the Tralius Egg Army, and serves under Tralius Sub-boss Dominik the Devil of the Parched Prairie Egg Base. He is an Egg Soldier, as well as the pilot of a Balkiry-class Egg Cruiser.

## Physical Description

A lean cockatoo who stands a little over three feet tall, Jayce has a fairly thick, sharply curved beak, and a medium-length, blunt tail, as well as a large and impressive crest of feathers that typically lays back against his head; it flares up when he is excited or angry.

His feathers are primarily Alice blue in color, with Cambridge blue eye-markings, underarms, and underside of tail. He has no hair on his head, instead having a tuft of feathers on his forehead, and some on the sides of his head, and his eyes are aero in color. His beak is also battleship grey in color.

His outfit consists of a Cal Poly Pomona green bomber jacket with gold trim over top of a white t-shirt, black jeans, black, fingerless gloves, and Cal Poly Pomona green boots, as well as a pair of aviator goggles with red-tinted lenses.

## Abilities

A swift and decently strong combatant, Jayce relies on his natural speed to put force behind his strikes; his sturdy, curved beak also allows for a nasty bite. He wields a pair of Energy Tonfas as his weapon of choice; they are modified to allow for a core of refined Ictusite, which adds an electric punch to all attacks made using these weapons.

Being a bird, he is capable of flight, and is quite a bit faster in the air than he is on land. His Cyberized augmentations are located in his vocal cords and larynx, and this allows him to amplify his voice to destructive extremes; one loud scream can briefly incapacitate his foes (unless they are entirely deaf), and putting all of his power into a scream can reduce a boulder to rubble; however, he cannot use this full-powered move too frequently, although his voice still remains a formidable weapon.

He is capable of basic-level Aerokinesis, and can only use low-level techniques of the Wind Element, such as Wind Needle. He is also a capable pilot, and pilots a Balkiry-class Egg Cruiser that he customized with the help of Milabena Roo; it is now armed with a specialized machine gun that fires electrical shots by means of a core of refined Ictusite.

### Strengths/Resistances

Jayce has no specific resistances to any Elements or energy-types. He is quite fast, and can easily outpace slower foes and evade their attacks; he can also nullify weak Poison-aligned techniques with his Aerokinesis. His Ictusite-core Energy Tonfas also allow him a slight advantage over anyone weak to the Electricity element, namely Water-wielders.

### Weaknesses

Jayce is weak to the Elements of Earth and Ice. His defenses aren't anything special, therefore he mostly relies on his agility to try and evade potentially devastating attacks. Being physically restrained completely nullifies his Aerokinesis. The strength of his voice is crippled underwater, due to the nature of how sound waves travel in liquid as well as the risk of drowning, and cease to work completely within a vacuum.

## Friends and Foes

### Friends/Allies

* **The Eggman Empire** -
	+ **Tralius Egg Army** - Jayce seems to get along well with his fellow Egg Soldiers, and respects them.
		- **Dominik the Devil** - Jayce has a lot of respect for the devil's deep sense of comradery, and his willingness to fight alongside his regiment.
		- **Milabena Roo** - He admires her mechanical skill, and she is typically the one who helps him repair his Egg Jet whenever it it damaged.

## Personality

A somewhat gruff, no-nonsense type of person, Jayce is nevertheless loyal to his fellow Egg Soldiers, and to his boss, Dominik. However, he is shown to be quite afraid of Dr. Eggman, and of Maw the Thylacine, and has often stated that he is glad he isn't stationed at Maw's base in the Red Outback Zone.

Despite his typically serious demeanor, he is certainly prone to bouts of cockiness, especially when it comes to his prowess as an aviator. However, in a fight, he remains focused, and is not likely to underestimate his foe.
