Name Zergling
From: Starcrafts (An animated series based on Starcraft)
Appearance: A purple smudge with dog like sentiment.
Not very tall to begin with it only reaches about your average persons knee. A zig-zag line for a mouth, with two small "wing-like" appendages and a small tail. Dark purple eyes, dark purple outline and lighter purple body.
Age: Unspecified.
Gender: Un....specified?
Personality: Overeager, easily excitable...the zergling, in this case derpling, is for all intents and purposes no different from an easily excitable puppy. It likes to play, and it is always happy...unless it gets left behind, then it's not so happy and you should feel bad for that because WHY WOULD YOU DO SUCH A THING?!
They are the embodiment of "WHEEEE!!" in a small purple blob with wings. The derpling is out to have fun, usually at the expense of everything around it. It doesn't want to cause damage, it's just that everything is edible...and things need to be nommed on...usually the enemy resources. Which include minerals, gas, people, and buildings.
Backstory: The Zerg race was first born upon the planet of Zerus where they emerged from the first spawning pool. They knew of three things. Fight. Kill. Evolve. They fed upon each other and other creatures, assimilating other lifeforms of the planet. It wasn't until the arrival of the Xel'naga arrived and gave them 'purity of essence' and the creation of the Overmind that they began to fall under the power of the interstellar interlopers.
However the Zerg turned against the interstellar interlopers and the Swarm drove them from the planet before embarking on a journey across the stars themselves led by the Overmind to the Protoss home-world where they yaddayaddayadda. Story-plot story story plot Queen of Blades blahblah Starcraft.
The Zerg are a biological race of arthropodal lifeforms bred to fight, kill, and evolve is the basic jist here. It's just how they are, it's how they were created and bred. This doesn't mean they are entirely mindless though.
Derpling here, as it is, was born of the Swarm under the rule of the new Queen of Blades during a three-way match against the Zerg, Terran and Protoss.
The derpling is first seen un-burrowing from the ground to chase after a marine who's trying to get away. It follows the unwitting gunner back to his bunker where he's trying to squeeze inside as the marines comrade pulls him in. The derpling even manages to trick the Marine into shooting his own ally. Whether this was intended or planned is unknown though. Not too much later derpling can be found trying to get into the Protoss base where some lone Zealot bars its path. It distracts him long enough its brother to run by him, before jumping over him itself, rushing the teams probes and destroying them.
Later still, we find it taking a bath in the spawning pool. It then goes for a walk with a hydralisk, excitedly rushing around it the entire time before the hydralisk leaves it tethered to a watch tower. Left alone it feels sad and dejected...until it makes a new friend in a Terran Raven...that is until it targets it as an enemy unit and launches a defense drone at it. It pulls free from its tether and runs back to base, resuming it's excitable scurry around its hydralisk friend...pulling the drone right into it.
Moral Standing: I don't think it really understands the concept of "morals" to be really given one...Neutral I guess?
Dreams: "Make friends with all the things" and "Nom all the things" tend to be the same thing by its definition.
Fears: Being left alone.
Extra: The derpling is an adorable monstrosity and a lot smarter than one might think it to be at first glance.
It is also highly susceptible to any kind of psychic attack, or psychic link, as it is based off a hive-mind that uses just that to keep it in line.
Character Location: None. Probably for the best that way. Their buildings biological in nature as well and tend to spread a kind of..."creep" around them.
Samples:
Derpling makes friends with That One Marine
Derpling makes friends with That One Zealot
Zergling makes friends with a Raven
Zergling survives and takes a nap.
Writing Sample:
So there's this ramp...and on the ramp is a protoss....
