Species Biography
Upgrade is a Galvanic Mechamorph of the planet Galvan B, a formerly uninhabited moon orbiting Galvan Prime. Though originally uninhabited, Galvan B was accidentally brought to life by an environmental disaster involving nanotechnology. While mining the planet, Galvan scientists introduced self-replicating nanotechnology to the moon, which bonded with the moon's minerals and created sentient life. Galvan B still appears to be an uninhabited moon on the surface, but this is only because the nanotechnology devours anything unfortunate enough to land on its surface.
A result of environmental engineering gone awry, Galvanic Mechomorphs is an entirely new and unique species in the galaxy. These amorphous biomechanical beings are living machines with liquid metallic skin and complex systems of self-forming organic circuits. Due to the "nanites" that makes up the core of their biology, Mechomorphs are able to merge with any technology and "upgrade" it into an incredible piece of ultra-tech. In this merged form, Mechomorphs can literally bring anything - from a toaster to a satellite - to life. Spreading over a machine like a fluid blanket of mercury, they are able to communicate with the apparatus, vastly increasing its functions. While Mechomorphs are masters of the mechanical, their powers are useless on living creatures. Sentient science kits, there is nothing artificial about them - even the plasma beams they produce come from a series of complex internal machinations. Being highly sensitive, finely tuned beings, electromagnetic pulses, acid or any other sort of corrosive can upset their delicate chemistry and wreak havoc on a Mechomorph's systems.
Planet Biography
Originally an uninhabited moon orbiting Galvan Prime, Galvan B was accidentally brought to life by an environmental disaster. Galvan scientists mining the resource-rich world for its raw materials misused an experimental self-replicating nanotechnology, which bonded with the moon's minerals and imbued the fertile ground with sentient consciousness. Though Galvan B seems to have reverted to its natural state, subtle surface ripples and the occasional metallic glint say otherwise. Any alien presence on the moon is sure to be consumed and quickly disappears.

This biomechanical being is a living machine with liquid metallic skin and complex systems of self-forming organic circuits. Upgrade is able to merge with technology and "upgrade" it into an incredible piece of ultra-tech. When merged, Upgrade can literally bring anything to life, and are able to communicate with the apparatus, vastly increasing its functions. While Upgrade is a master of the mechanical, his powers are useless on living creatures. The plasma beams he can produce come from a series of complex internal machinations.

Advantages & Abilities
note: these are just my point of view from watching the show
> Upgrade has the ability to merge and control technology.
> He can alter technology he's merged with and upgrade it, giving it a far more advanced design.
> He can fire positronic energy blasts from his eye and hands
> He can create hard-light constructs out of positronic energy.
> He can stretch and change the shape of his body, allowing him to float and create weapons with his arms (axes, swords, spears)
> Can solidify parts of his body into armor
> Can travel as liquid making him immune to many physical attacks or bindings
> Can destroy a machines circuits and programming by merging hand with it
> Increased Strength
> Can phase through machines and things made of metal
Upgrades Merged Forms
Disadvantages & Weaknesses
note: these are just my point of view from watching the show
> Electricity and electromagnetic energy can render his abilities useless.
> He is also weak against acids and corrosives.
> Control over powerful and sentient robots can become difficult for Upgrade.
