Neutralzone - Slate Design — Description

My brainrot for MCB is going strong so what else am I supposed to do than spread it and create OCs for it?!?! (even if these things take months on and off lol;;; )
Here's Slate, a bit self-destructive one for his own good.
Early life was as normal as it can be; working, fighting, living your life uninterrupted, having a loved one, lots of friends.
Until an accident happened that involved Kedger: During an anniversary celebration of the formation of different branches of martial arts a platform collapsed under Kedger. He was just a visitor and part of the audience. Slate's husband was also there watching the show, nearby. Thanks to the collapse activating Kegder's weapon card to take support from nearby structures, the blades of his cape hit people on their way, and Slate's husband was the one who took the biggest hit out of the others injured; a direct hit to the head.
Investigations concluded that the structures had not been maintained properly and the city had to pay for the damages. Slate didn't truly have anyone to blame for his now comatose partner. Recovery was slow and the medics' promise was that everything was going to be fine. For hundreds of years, visiting the hospital, Slate did his everything to make his love feel as comfortable as he could, keeping the still frame clean and energized, sometimes several days of just holding hand while knowing the other didn't register any of it.
Eventually the wait paid off and the husband woke up, functional.
The head healed but the memories were gone. Physically erased without any way of being restored.
Not knowing how to deal with his love not recognizing him the only target he focused all his anger at was Kedger, and to this day he still hates him like no other being in existence. Slate might have something to do with the fact Kedger is terrified of conflict and resorts to only defensive acts when his pain tolerance reaches critical.
His demonstration of pummeling Kedger into submission impressed the wrong crowds and eventually Slate ended up participating in gang activities and functions more like a hired member than anyone truly loyal. He sent this money to his ex-husband until in return he got a restraining order signed by his ex-husband's new mate. Gang life stayed, leaving him with lots of credits to use for whatever he wants.
Slate is an excellent fighter; agile and light weight, parkouring around the battlefield like a gremlin. Has participated in the Autobot's side of the war on a distant planet or two purely to get his aggression out. The Bots liked it to an extend. May have found his way onto Cybertron at some point in life, may find his way onto Earth in the future.
About the height of MCB Dexter.
TLDR; a new MCB OC goes wroom!
