Rper: Jetta Windstar
Character type: Semi Permanent for now
Name: Billy Morgan
Nicknames: N/A
Sex/Gender Identity: Male
Age: 39 –if I want to stay in tune with canon details, he can’t be much younger than in his 30’s otherwise the knowledge he has won’t make sense. He’s young as it is in the show
Alliance: FLAG / Knight Industries
Job: Lead Researcher and Programmer – currently working with Sarah on a new AI vehicle’s programming
Height: 5’10’’
Weight: 185 lbs
Personality:
Billy is by no means the typical socially inept nerd. However, Billy does not always have the best social skills, and this primarily falls into the subject of relationships. Due to his interests - and his personality quirks, Billy never really had a huge interest in dating until later in life, but he found out that when looking at the big picture, he didn’t see the point. With low self-esteem and plenty of distractions, Billy prefers to avoid getting too close to females, and this is normally because he has the worst of luck with them beyond the level of friendship.
These issues exist because he is jumpy, somewhat innocent, and quite squeamish. Over time, he has become less shy due to having a very successful career, leading up to his seniority at Knight Industries. Billy is definitely an indoors type of person, and is not that adventurous. Rather, he gives you the impression that he may be like of those guys that work in a science lab on some sort of expedition and have nothing better to do but research or tinker with the latest project. Billy did get teased as a kid, but generally not as much by the time he got to high school. Tending to work behind the scenes, Billy is happy with just letting his skills shine whenever possible. He’s actually got a competitive side, all though this is usually only seen when it comes to gaming. He will often challenge Zoe or KITT to games of chess or some multi-player game online like Halo or L4D 1 and 2.
Billy’s main weaknesses are his dislike for the sight of blood, dirty things-being heavily exposed outdoors (anything dealing with lots of germs and general sloppiness), and most of all: his low self-esteem. He’s a brilliant guy, but fails to realize that he’s more than just the local lead programmer and researcher when things get rough. Another thing: on some occasions, he’ll be horrible at come backs, but on other occasions, if he doesn’t have a point to prove, he’ll just say something random to surprise whoever he’s arguing with.
If Billy has any strong points, it’s the attitude he has that makes it near impossible to bring him down. Billy is rarely depressed. Despite his low self-esteem with relationships, he refuses to let anything get in the way of his mood and work. He is prideful in his job, and it fuels his passion for life. All though dependent, Billy does not need a woman to survive (all though he wishes he could find someone). He’s also fairly intellectual once you get him in any sort of discussion that might perk his interest.
Appearance: Billy is rather fit despite not getting outdoors or exercising much. His hygiene is well maintained, and his clothes generally meet professional standards. He is hardly ever seen in t-shirts or hoodies except on vacation, but being a man dedicated to his work, that doesn’t happen often.

Preferred Vehicle:
The G8155 Interceptor (NPC for now, based on the Spyhunter car)– it’s not really his, but he was assigned to test drive it, because Sarah and Zoe wanted him to get out more! The interceptor is a vehicle like KITT but with four key different transformations, including a full fledge Bot form about 22 feet tall. The Interceptor looks like a custom Lamborghini with an interior similar to KITTs. It has nanoskin and underlying molecular bonded shell similar to KITT’s but rather, it is designed for stealth and speed. Interceptor has a wide range of weapons that will be listed at length in his profile when made. The things most noteworthy are his powerful rail gun and his turbo boost (which works just like KITTs). The Interceptor is experimental for now and has no voice or processor just yet, but as time progresses, Billy gets the chance to test out its transformations and gets some of the first interactions with the AI once it is installed. For now, the Interceptor is just a car with fancy transformations and weapons, as well as various defense mechanisms.

Preferred Weapons:
None really, he rarely carries anything other than maybe a gun on occasion. He usually doesn’t get out much anyway.
Abilities:
Strengths:
Billy has a knack for math and symbolic languages, anything involving logic, games, strategy and coding he loves! He’s not a very artistic person but he does know 3d design from working with Valve and a few other gaming companies on and off early on during his college career before he got hired by FLAG as an intern.
Weaknesses:
Girls and blood really. He’s very sensitive, and sometimes he lets his emotions get the better of him when it comes to relationships. Only until he matured did he start learning what a real relationship entailed.
Family:
Father: Ryan Morgan
Mother: Dianna Morgan (early childhood and family info was made up due to lack of sources providing enough information)
History:
Billy grew up as a single child in a middle-class family. Both parents were very supportive and quite normal. They didn’t have any problems raising him, though Billy was occasionally a bit difficult to handle early on when they realized he was having trouble making friends in school. After he began to mature and learned to communicate more efficiently, finding friends in late middle school and high school was far easier. By then he was already developing a friendly yet professional appearance, which was somewhat hard to find in students, particularly males. He still got teased occasionally, and was often stuck without having a girlfriend, even now. He was quite shy around them, and most of the girls were spoiled preps who didn’t care about a guy with seemingly no status. Billy was aware of this so he tried not to let this problem get to him. Of course by the time he became an adult and he met Zoe, things began to change. Zoe was one of the few that seemed interested in him thus far, and they’ve been getting close on and off since they started their careers at FLAG.
Being unusually smart, college was a breeze. As he watched his friends struggle around him, along with one or two dropping out, Billy completed a Master’s degree in Programming and also received a minor in IT. His first job away from home was in San Francisco with Geek Squad during college at DEVRI university (mostly in the summers), and then once he got out of college, he worked as a programmer and game designer for Valve, and continued working at Geek Squad until he could find a better job. He made enough to get by until Knight Industries found him, and Billy snatched up the opportunity quicker than lightning.
Billy and Sarah have helped keep KITT up to speed programming wise, and he has also helped monitor the status of the nano-skin as a precaution. Since studying the nanomachines and their microprocessors, he (and Zoe as well) have helped Sarah design the Interceptor, an AI they plan to build a full sized Cybertronian Bot form with a power core similar to a Spark. Of course, the Interceptor will more or less be like KITT, but they hope that he can be more like a real Cybertronian now that they know what a Spark is like.

Preferred Weapons:
None really, he rarely carries anything other than maybe a gun on occasion. He usually doesn’t get out much anyway.
Abilities:
- Programming – Due to his knowledge as a programmer and a researcher, Billy has a natural talent for programming. He first became interested in it when he decided to rebuild a computer from scratch. He’s familiar with just about every software known due to what he ended up studying in college.
- Engineering – He does have some engineering skill, for some of it comes hand in hand with programming. He can be quite innovative when it comes to improving technologies, old or new, and can usually make electronics better than they were before if you give him enough time.
- Computers – In combination with being an expert programmer, there is hardly any computer system Billy is unfamiliar with. If he does not know of a program or hasn’t worked with a program/system in a while, all he needs is some time with the manual and/or mess around with the computer.
- Gaming – not really an ability, but he’s damned good at it!
Strengths:
Billy has a knack for math and symbolic languages, anything involving logic, games, strategy and coding he loves! He’s not a very artistic person but he does know 3d design from working with Valve and a few other gaming companies on and off early on during his college career before he got hired by FLAG as an intern.
