Note: This is a crossover character, originally from the movie STEALTH (2005). If you haven't watched STEALTH as of yet, I suggest you watch it before you read through this profile, because it contains heavy spoilers. Then again, it's just an action flick and only worth watching for the plane.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHO ARE YOU?
Name: UCAV (Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle) EDI (Extreme Deep Invader) Version 2.0
Nicknames: Eddie, Tin Man, Tin Man the first
Age: 3-5 years old (The original EDI was built in 2016 and destroyed in the same year. It took 3 years for him to reach Dr. Orbit and another 3 years or so to rebuild him.)
Gender: Drone
Height: 35 feet long
Approx mass: 4 tons
Route: -
Alignment: Neutral (Rogue)
Status: Human Alliance Stealth Attack Jet
Stats
Strength: 5
Intelligence: 9
Courage: 9
Firepower: 6
Speed: 8
Rank: 0
Endurance: 5
Skill: 6
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE DETAILS
EDI is a Talon fighter with a brown outer hull. It is slightly smaller than its predecessor.
The brain component of EDI is a sphere about the size of a beach ball; it has several red sensors around its gray surface.
EDI posesses no other form, since he is not a cybertronian, but an earth-made vehicle.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHO YOU'RE DEALING WITH
Likes:
- flying, but he avoids to do it if there is no reason to do so
- many kinds of music. After downloading music from the web, he sometimes plays a song that fits his current mood and emotions
- the people he can trust most, which are Ben Gannon and Kara Wade
- bringing his enemy into troublesome situations
- learning new things
Dislikes:
- he's a little iffy about other machines
- being locked up to the moment of being unable to move and fly
- having his AI core touched or handled (unless it's someone he trusts)
- being told what to do
- thunderstorms (He's afraid of them)
Personality: At first EDI was a good soldier following orders but after it was struck by lightning, it became a rogue fighter. EDI begins with following his programming. When making decisions, it will always look to its pre-programmed “rules” then learns when it encounters decisions not covered by its programming. Ben Gannon earned EDI’s respect by “taking care of his wingman”. Later, Dr. Orbit found EDI was experiencing emotions. EDI returned the favor to Ben when he rammed an attack helicopter that was about to kill both Ben and Kara.
Strengths: EDI is the future of digital warfare.
Fuel: catalyzed A1 methane
Exoskeleton: metal-ceramic composite, aero-elastic wings, pulse detonation engine with twin hybrid scramjet turbos.
EDI’s sensor’s can pick out a face 5 miles away.It has a quantum processor that allows it to process information at 10 terabytes per second. EDI can reach a speed of Mach 4 and may link up with all American spy satellites to get information. EDI is a combat drone designed for quickly moving into any area of the world and destroying terrorist organizations. EDI learns as he goes. EDI has the capability to hover, land, and take off vertically.
Weaknesses: Extreme power-surges like lightning strikes or EMP-blasts can be lethal when aimed towards the AI core.

THE SKELETONS IN YOUR CLOSET
Family: Dr. Keith Orbit (Manufacturer of blueprints)
History: US NAvy aviation, the near future. To combat the mounting threat of terrorism a new program has been created, armed with the most advanced and experimental technology. Its purpose is to destroy the enemy wherever they operate in the world. Over 400 pilots applied for the program, only three were chosen. Lieutenant Kara Wade, Lieutenant Henry Purcell, and Lieutenant Ben Gannon. These three were soon joined on the U.S.S Abraham Lincoln by a fourth wingman, EDI. These pilots drove the experimental “Talon” aircraft. Supposedly only three existed.
EDI, created by Dr. Keith Orbit, is the cutting edge, top of the line Talon. EDI is a UCAV (Unmanned combat aerial vehicle). The three pilots were to train EDI. They carried out their missions. EDI watched and learned.
Information came in to the U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln, three top known terrorists, in Rangoon, were planning an attack on U.S. soil. This team had to take them out. On this first mission Ben Gannon disobeyed orders, successfully completing the mission in the process. EDI’s first lesson as it turned out was to disobey orders. While returning to the aircraft carrier EDI was struck by lightning, his processing web fused. EDI was transformed by the event.
The very next mission in Tajikistan, instead of obeying orders, EDI disobeyed. Henry tried to reason with the UCAV but it would have none of it. Henry attempted to bring EDI down and was killed in action.
EDI began following pre-generated missions. Missions that were setup as contigency plans covering any percieved threat from current or future U.S.‘ enemies. EDI was following a pregenerated mission in which he had a target in Russia. The program was not real but the UCAV thought it was and proceeded to take out the target. On the way it had to refuel and went to a refueling zeppelin called Camel Hump 9. There it met with Lieutenant Gannon. In an attempt to kill Gannon, EDI ignited the fuel in the air and destroyed the Zeppelin. Ben escaped.
Meanwhile Lieutenant Wade ejected over North Korea. She tried to evade capture and head to South Korea, as they are U.S. allies. EDI proceeded to Siberia where he would make a strike on a cold-fusion plant there that did not exist.
EDI was damaged in a dogfight with a Russian fighter-jet. His wing was punctured and on fire. Because of his main programming, which says, he must survive at all costs, he knew he had to land. Landing however was not an option. EDI could not fall into enemy hands. So, Gannon gave him an option to do as he’s told or crash and burn. EDI decided to do as he was told. Ben kept his end of the bargain by putting out the fire on EDI’s wing.
Ben and EDI were ordered to go to a base in Canada, because of fear of court-martial, Captain Cummings had an assassination attempt put on Lieutenant Gannon. The assassination attempt failed and Ben found Dr Orbit at the Canadian base. Lieutenant Gannon flew EDI manually and escaped the base. Together, they headed for North Korea, because Gannon was in fact in love with Kara.
EDI and Gannon arrived just in time to rescue her and EDI found redemption.
Soon after the original EDI had destroyed itself, and the superiority of the new FA-37 Talons were demonstrated, it was decided that more Talon’s would be made… along with another, less complicated version of the EDI to always fly along side them for ultra dangerous mission capability. Flying well past mach 1, Marine Captain Belic unleashes the power of his new beast… a newly off the line Talon with his name on the side.
Following close on his 5 o’clock was the new EDI. Taking it down to the hard deck, and pushing his throttle forward, the captain notices the EDI is following without even the slightest issue. “Let’s see how this mechanical beast does over the ocean?” He thinks to himself… pushing his throttle even further forward…. “No machine is going to out-fly me!”.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY?
Weaponry: The UCAV EDI carries the same arsenal of weapons as the original EDI, which are:
- 4 Throat Ripper Air to Air Missiles
- 4 Shock Hammer Air to Ground Missiles
- 2 Air to Ground Missile-130s
- 2 GAU-12 Equalizers
- 5 Fuel Air Explosives
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME
EDI's frame carries the core of the original, which has been restored in a long, painful process. However that was kept a secret by Dr. Orbit to keep the sentient AI safe and EDI is aware of which, which is why he might act like a computer generated voice at first.
-Rp Sample, we want one of the character you're making.-
"Hello, Captain Belic." the AI greeted the Captain, who was glaring at him. He didn't like machines. "I will look forward to work with you." It was easy to look past the AI's programmed introduction and it bored the Captain. (I truly hope that's good enough. I'll try another one if you'd like.)
Fun Quotes:
Mechanic: “Eddie flies all by himself.”
Ben: “You mean itself.”
Cpt. George Cummings: “It will replace us all.”
Cpt. George Cummings: “EDI is here to learn from you, so make sure these lessons are up to speed, alright.”
Lt. Ben Gannon: “Well then let the schoolin’ begin.”
Tim “He… uh, downloads songs from the web.”
Ben “Yeah, how many ?”
Tim “All of em.”
Captain Dick Marshfield : “You don’t get it, EDI is the whole idea.”
EDI: “Mission accomplished. 100 over 100.”
Henry: “Just like me, you have orders and right now your orders are to return to base, good pilots follow orders.”
EDI: “Negative.”
EDI: “EDI is a warplane. EDI must have targets.”
