Who or what is Mechadin?
"Oh me? I'm just your average, every day, run-of-the-mill Mechadin." ~ Mechadin, on being a Mechadin
Mechadin won't say where they are from, but by piecing together the few things that slip through the cracks, a few theories can be discerned:
1) Mechadin has said that they do 'everything' in their suit. It can thus be assumed that they never take it off. This also proves that Mechadin is not a robot...unless it's a highly ADVANCED robot...hmmm...
2) Mechadin has been noted to do the following:
--Speak in a rough, masculine way.
--Occasionally giggle like a schoolgirl.
--Belch like a man.
--Admire a female power suit's boots and then have a discussion about boots.
--Look through a shopping magazine of men's clothes.
--Yawn daintily.
--Call everyone 'dawg' or give them nicknames.
--Likes Basketball WAY too much.
--Be proficient in the 'Robot' Dance.
3) Hudson was on the CRP channel briefly, and mentioned the name 'Alex'...could he have been referring to Mechadin?
(Feel free to put your character's name down, and their reasoning, if they believe any of these)

Powers: The Suit and the Operator
The Suit (and Harry)
"Everybody poops, dawg." ~ Mechadin, on suit functions. [WIP Description. Have a brief list of features instead.]
The suit is designed for survivability above all else, and thus features only one on-board weapons system, which is a close-range EMP wrist-cannon primarily for disabling electronic or computer-controlled devices.The helmet features a tactical Heads-Up Display which is constantly updated and maintained by 'Hudson' to prevent over-cluttering, alongside an image projector to display this information to others. Sealed and Pressurized, the suit can withstand the vacuum of space and sea-depths of up to Five-Thousand Meters, with air filtration systems to assist with being submerged or dealing with deadly fumes, while the oxygen tanks store a weeks worth of oxygen inside them. The back compartment features a food and water storage system (Up to three days of food-paste, and a week of water), a water purifier, and a waste disposal and storage system...there's also a nice, custom-made thermos that doubles as a powerful blender.
The sword Mechadin wields, affectionately called 'Harry', is of no special composition (despite being incredibly durable and heavy), and is more so a bludgeoning device than an actual slicing tool. The sword can double as a small-scale flamethrower when connected to the appropriate tank on the Mechadin suit, though this is more so for path clearing and dramatic flair than it is as a viable combat maneuver.
The Operator
Since we don't even know the species of Mechadin, we can't really say what their capacities are physically, however Mechadin sure doesn't keep their personality hidden from others. They are a loud-mouthed, mountain hating, Fashion loving, individual who says what they are thinking, even when it can be considered offensive and/or makes absolutely no sense. Just judging from the way they speak, one could hardly consider Mechadin to be a knightly figure, but when called into action it's clear Mechadin upholds the same moral standards as their namesakes...albeit with a little less conviction and a lot more stubbornness. (will continue personality later.)
WIP Personality list:
- Brash and blunt.
- Struggles to try and act 'knightly', usually failing and getting frustrated.
- afraid of small people.

Affiliations
Feel free to add your character's name here and how they are affiliated, I'll work on writing up Mechadin's view on them after.
"Hudson" - Mechadin's off-site operator and the creator of the armor worn by the hero. Intelligent, calm demeanor, and with a considerably more subtle sense of humor, Hudson keeps Mechadin informed while they do the heavy work in the field. It's unknown why Hudson doesn't dawn the 'Mechadin' armor himself (Unless he was Mechadin THE WHOLE TIME!), but he seems rather content with not doing so. An Irish-American with great pride in his lineage, the two apparently live together somewhere on the Outskirts of Millennium City, but his relationship with the armored hero is otherwise unknown.
"Harry" - Mechadin's sword...yeah, they're way too attached to that thing.
"Mechound" - a Pit Bull/Mastiff Puppy that was found in a dumpster on the fourteenth of March (2014), this adorable little guy captured the heart of Mechadin instantly.
