Appearance
Velociraptor in a labcoat with a bowler hat, usually carrying several tools and medical implements.
Personality
Cowardly dinosaur and incapable doctor to humans. Despises humanity but envies them, is absolutely terrified of their power (being chosen by Getter), and has sworn to destroy them all, which goes far against the rest of his species acceptance of their fate after the deaths of Gore and Jatego. Has sworn some sort of dinosaur blood oath against humanity, but is far too afraid to use his strong claws against their tender flesh when some cobbled together robot may or may not do.
Background
Gravlax (not its real name) was born a part of an empire of dinosaurs, called the Dinosaur Empire, which had ruled the world in the primordial times. Their civilization thrived and prospered, through both conflict and science the likes of which humanity has never attained.. and likely never will. Unfortunately for them, one day, a disaster struck the planet. The meteor changed the climate of the Earth, and humans, not dinosaurs, were chosen to inherit the Earth.
Gravlax (not its real name) 's people went into hiding under the earth for millions of years, waiting for the chance to take their revenge on the apes which had cheated them of their rightful world, unhappy to 'survive' in the land they once ruled.
When he came of age, barely a young man at the age of 3, Gravlax wanted to help his people, even after their near extinction, so he became a biomechanic of his empire, acting as both a surgeon and a repairman (the two are interchangeable), was unable to change the course of history. Evolution chose humans, and dinosaurs had to remain in hiding, this time with no chance for a comeback, their leaders were dead.

Special Abilities
Bionics: Gravlax is unnaturally skilled in any bionics, able to replace limbs and organs with even crude or pitiful technology. Amazing rank at this.
Bio-Engineering: Gravlax knows the secret Dinosaur Empire techniques for merging creatures together in symbiosis. Excellent at this
Mechanical Aptitude: The Dinosaur Empire's technology levels are so far beyond humanity's, any human invention is very easy for Gravlax to understand, even if it comes from 'superscience'. He can reverse engineer any and all human technology and adapt it for his uses, or repair it as if he were trained for it from birth.
Powers & Merits
Dinosaur: Is a Dinosaur, which aside from being pretty nifty, grants it the following 'powers':
- Carnivore: Has sharp claws and fangs that can tear the flesh off people. Like knives made of bone.
- Cold Blooded: Is able to endure high temperature and live in tropical climates with no discomfort.
- Escape: Can leave its tail behind if he gets caught by it, and it will eventually grow back.
- Escape II - The Revenge: Can extend the flesh of its neck when threatened to frighten predators.
- Survival: Gravlax's entire race is EXTREMELY hard to kill. This doesn't make him immortal or especially resilient to bullets, but he's hard to kill without overkill.
Lightning Calculator: (1pt Merit) Gravlax is incredibly adept with numbers and math.
Nightsight: (3pt Merit) Gravlax can see in the dark.
Ability Aptitude - Technology: (1pt Merit) Gravlax is incredibly gifted at repairs and mechanics.
Double Jointed: (1pt Merit)Gravlax can bend his limbs in any way, and lose his tail at will.
Unique Items
Multitool: Gravlax carries around a small dinosaur that, when squeezed, produces one of several tools. This is technically the only device he needs to function in any circumstance. Computer hacking, mini-saw, welding torch, etc. If a human tries to use it, it will bite him and possibly pee on it in terror. Its pee is like bleach.
Mechasaurs: Gravlax occasionally will build a mechasaur from whatever is available. This thing's threat is negligeable as he can only add things to something that already exists (like a drill to a rhino, or a gun to a cat), but occasionally he can be a threat (like a tiger with a machinegun or a bear with a chainsaw).
Items Of Note
Human Mask: Gravlax carries a poorly made human mask. He can pass off for human in a trench coat from the shadows, if the person he speaks to is far away or nearsighted.
Bowler Hat: A trophy from his one true victory against humanity, he took this off a dead hobo. It looks worn.
Weaknesses & Flaws
Cold: Being cold blooded, very low temperatures will ABSOLUTELY wreck him, forcing him into sleep and eventually death.
Carnivore: Gets no sustenance from vegetables of any kind, and less nutrition than he should from cooked meat, or meat kept frozen, unlike a fresh kill.
Dinosaur: ...HE'S A DINOSAUR. ...okay. This marks him as a reptilian creature who is fiercely territorial and protective of his things, and has a hard time repelling his instincts. This said, he's also a very very intelligent being who knows better than to pick fights against the several billion humans who have, clearly, been chosen to rule this universe. Doesn't like it, which leads to..
Racism: Does not like humans, and is not above calling them apes, mammals, warmbloods and any such epithets. This also makes him barely able to differentiate between humans and other mammals. Can tell a dog is not a human, but not that they're genetically different or particularly unlikely to share intellect and habits.
Getter Rays: These melt him. Period. Instant death.
Outsider: (2pt Flaw)Gravlax is weak and feeble, so is not well liked by his people of warriors. Also he's a dinosaur, so it's not like humans like him.
Monstrous: (3pt Flaw)Gravlax is a dinosaur. People get uneasy. A lot.
Twisted Upbringing: (1pt Flaw)The Dinosaur Empire is evil and alien. Gravlax takes their ideas as THE truth.
Intolerance - Humans: (1pt Flaw)Gravlax hates humans and wishes they were dead.
Weak-Willed: (2pt Flaw) Gravlax has no willpower and will instinctively bow down to stronger presences.
Hero-Worship - Vulture: (1pt Flaw)Gravlax looks up to his strong and powerful mentor in the ways of science, Vulture, and will be subservient to him. He may even let him eat his tail, but it's not gay, that's a human thing.
