Character: Axl Fandom: Megaman X Character Notes: History: Axl is a young Reploid that was taken in by the Red Alert Syndicate, a group of mercenaries. He couldn't remember anything before joining Red Alert, not even where he attained his unique ability to copy the appearances and abilities of other Reploids (and possibly other creatures, as well, although this is never stated clearly.)
However, after some time spent in Red Alert, Axl became tired of all the "murdering" and the other less-than savory activities the group became involved in, and he walked away, creating a battle to try and retrieve him in the process; Red Alert sent a large mechaniloid scorpion after him, destroying and causing havok in a certain area until the Maverick Hunters caught word and Zero was deployed to investigate.
There he apprehended Axl and brought him in; although Axl repeatedly said that all he wanted was to be a Maverick Hunter and to help them, X was wary of him due to his violent methods and past alliance with Red Alert. He refused to allow him to become a Hunter, but, regardless, Axl went off with Zero afterwards to investigate other disturbances.
Soon after, Red, the leader of Red Alert, contacted the Maverick Hunters and, despite their disagreement with the concept, released some Mavericks that he had prisoner and proclaimed that whoever defeated them first, Red Alert or the Maverick Hunters, would be allowed to keep Axl. Despite the fact that X and Zero wanted nothing to do with Axl, Zero still went into action and Axl followed him into the fray, hoping to make up for the wrongs he'd done and gain favor with X and Zero, as well.
It soon becomes evident that Axl had been used by Red-- Axl alone was the only member with the ability to collect DNA data from the Mavericks and other Repoids, which he'd been using to make himself and the others more powerful. At the same time, they'd also become far more unruly.
The Hunters and Axl go to Red Alert's base after defeating the Mavericks to finish things, but, after a battle with Red himself, the real user was revealed to be none other than Sigma. Red himself had been duped into helping Sigma, as had the entire team. Axl, Zero, and X fought together and defeated Sigma, and Axl was allowed to remain with the Hunters, although X still refused to allow him to become a true member.
Personality: Axl is a spunky little guy. He's the youngest of the three protagonists, and, thus, a lot more playful and happy than they often seem; although that fact also makes him something of an annoyance to the more mature Hunters. He's a good boy, although a bit of a delinquent due to his time spent in Red Alert working as a mercenary. However, he left for his own reasons; he didn't like what the group was doing and the way things had begun to change, and was looking to instead become a Maverick Hunter, generally the "good" guys of the story. It's clear that he does have a good heart, although it's also obvious that some attitudes and behaviors will need to be trained out of him.
He looks up to X and Zero, despite how X in particular tends to treat him-- like both a child and a criminal at once. Zero in particular, however, is his hero, as he once said himself, and he's always excited to team up with him. He says he believes that he and Zero "make a great team."
Other: Axl was, in Megaman X7, introduced as the first and only Reploid capable of his shape-shifting abilities. He's also unique in that his long-range and primary weapons, his twin pistols, aren't built into his body.

Hey, this is Axl. So, like. I know I'm the new guy and everything, and I know I was with Red Alert for a while, but I'm seriously on your side. I want to be a Hunter! Like you! I don't want to be like them anymore. So could you maybe talk to X a little about it and see if you can convince him? I mean, I know you totally support me and stuff, right? You're way nicer to me than he is, anyway.
And, anyway, I'd totally make an awesome addition to the team. I can use my copy ability for good things! And me and you are an awesome team, no matter what you say. Admit it. We were great together.
So, anyway, just think about it, okay? It would be really great if I could help you guys take down the Mavericks! I want to make up for the bad stuff I did in Red Alert. At least give me a chance, okay?
Love Thanks, Axl
Third Person: Prompt: Confliction.
Axl hated jobs like that. He'd been hired on to assassinate some Reploid in a notable office or something, he didn't know. He just knew that it wasn't a Maverick on the other end of the barrel and he didn't want to pull the trigger, not this time. Not again.
Walking the hall outside, he'd already taken a disguise-- the form of a receptionist he'd seen in the hall earlier. She apparently worked for the Reploid he was aiming for, which made her perfect to imitate for his purposes. He reached the office at length and looked at the door for a moment, silent, before knocking and wincing at the sound of it.
Don't make me do this, Red. She's innocent.
"Come in," Her voice came, cutting through Axl's pained thoughts, and he entered, forcing a professional smile on.
"Hello," he said politely, and she smiled as he closed the door behind her.
She inclined her head, a smile on her face that seemed too genuine to be purely professional.
This is so wrong.
"Ah, I'm sorry to seem so impatient," she began after a beat, "But it's a bit urgent-- you have mailed that letter I sent with you to the post office yesterday, haven't you?"
"... I'm afraid not," Axl said, shifting back into his own form and drawing out his pistols with none of his usual bravado. Her eyes went wide as he lined up one of the barrels-- a perfect headshot. It would be instant and he could just walk out and go on with his life, pretending he hadn't just ended someone else's.
"I-I-- w-who are you?"
"That information's classified." He wanted to smirk after that, but couldn't find it in him-- all he found was a sick feeling. It was so wrong and he knew it.
He breezed a finger over the trigger and she seemed paralyzed, unable to even make a sound; the world seemed frozen for a moment, neither of them moving or even making a sound. And then Axl lowered his gun silently, turned, and left through the window, leaving her still in shock at her desk, trying to soak in everything that had just taken place.
I'm not doing this anymore. Let them come and find me if they want me; I'm done with this.
