Lotus' Profile: Atlas

A/N: Got a number of requests to bring Atlas into the story and I figure Trinity's arc was as good as ever. Which is good because seeing what I got planned for this arc, it's probably going to take a full squad to handle it. This was presented to me by "gold crown dragon" (ID: 7483628) from Indonesia. If you want to submit a profile or otherwise to me, do so. All credit will go toward you

Lotus' Profile:

(Atlas)

The Earth Tenno, The Rock Tenno, The Mountain Tenno, The Stone Tenno.

Unofficially: The Dad Tenno.

Titan of stone, lord of the earthly elementals.

Born into the lower caste of the Orokin Empire, his life was filled with hardships and troubles from the start. From his humble beginnings as a lowly worker slaving away alongside the Grineer on Europa to rising up and becoming the head foreman for designing the Emperor's new palace at the capital, Atlas has always been laying the groundwork. It was in between this time that he married his childhood friend and brought two children into the stars.

He was onboard the Zarmian Ten Zero to oversee the materials in the ship's cargo bay that would be used to construct the platform from where the Emperor's would oversee his Grand Parade, but like the others, he knew nothing about the ship's secret orders to experiment with void-jumps.

When the ship was discovered a couple of years later, the man who would become Atlas was found in the cargo bay, encased in a hardened dome of dirt that took rescue crews six hours to breakthrough.

Unfortunately, his return was not as jubilant as one would think for his family as they were executed soon afterward in the Empire excessive attempt to keep the Zarmian Ten Zero incident along with the Tenno a secret. I have been informed by Atlas himself that he only got to see his family for a few hours after his recovery before their untimely demise by Dax soldiers.

It was during his training that is was observed that Atlas had developed something of a sixth sense in sensing vibrations through the ground no matter how small, allowing him to sense when an enemy was approaching. Unfortunately, this does not work on metal surfaces.

He is one of the more muscled physique Tenno, his body only rivaled by Hildryn and Rhino. While not quite on the same level of strength as those two, he is nonetheless easily capable of lifting a Bailiff off the ground with one hand, dual-wields two Gorgon Wraiths with no trouble whatsoever, and is even an accomplished hand-to-hand combatant, using his own signature fist weapons, the Tekko.

While in combat his prefer tactic is to weather his enemies' assault and then charge forth with all of his might whenever he senses a break in their attack. This is only achievable due to his rock hard skin which has taken rockets with little to no trouble at all. As far as combat records show, Atlas has never been knockdown while his feet were planted.

Due to his physical form, however, Atlas is the slowest of the Tenno when it comes to sprint speed and is usually tasked with bringing up the rear guard during squad ops.

Now Reawakened From his deep slumber he is ready to hold the weight of the world once more on his shoulder.

Atlas is a humble giant, but woe to those who underestimate him.

The only Tenno to ever force the Grusrtrag Three to retreat while on a solo mission and this was only fifty-five seconds into their battle.

Is one of the older male Tenno and has become a sort of father figure for the younger ones, especially Nyx, who is arguably the youngest of them all.

He is the current champion of the Tenno Arm wrestling competition, which surprisingly had almost every Tenno, including Valykr and Chroma, participate in.

Known to have a friendly rivalry with Hildryn and Rhino, especially in the gym.

Is the only person who Inaros has no problem with sitting down and talking to for long periods of time as the Sand Tenno as a tendency to see everyone else beneath his attention.

Special Note:

Atlas has a tendency to let off unoriginal or unfunny jokes very often which have supposedly been told by middle-aged or older men since the early days of humanity. From what I have gathered, these are referred to as "Dad jokes". The rest of the Tenno, including Trinity, Excabliur, and myself to an extent, find them unamusing though I have been told that Konzu of Cetus greatly enjoys them.

This is Atlas, the brawler, the strong.

Moving mountains is no easy task, Tenno. Atlas endures.
