Biography
Born on High Charity late into the Human-Covenant War, Plaplap was well known through the lower districts of the holy city for his mechanical skills. He would often tinker with bits of machinery for the other Unggoy. It was because of this that when he escaped High Charity during its fall to the Flood and retreating to Balaho during the Great Schism, he would become a member of the Builders of the Hollow Moons, working alongside Grunt Science Commissioners such as Gablap in the creation of the Goblin battlesuit.
After the Created's alliance with the Unggoy of Balaho, Plaplap played a part in the creation of the Goblin. While he pretended to be loyal to Cortana, he secretly despised his people bowing to a Human creation, even if she had helped Balaho. So, he fled his home, stealing plans for the Beam Goblin with him, after receiving a message of recruitment from the Banished. He sought them out and pledged his loyalty in exchange for the materials needed to build his own Beam Goblin.
After the Battle of Installation 07, between the fall of the UNSC Infinity and the return of the Master Chief, Plaplap brought his custom Goblin to battle against the lingering UNSC forces, the Ring's Sentinel defenses and any Created remnants that were on the Ring after Cortana's death and the Ring's fragmentation. He would then seek to use the metal from salvaged UNSC vehicles and Forerunner scraps to attempt construction of more Goblins for the Banished.
Personality
Because of his technological prowess, Plaplap often proclaims himself to be "Smartest of the Grunts". However, like many other Grunts, he will often crumble in fear in the presence of the Jiralhanae of the Banished, especially those of higher rank than him. Despite this, he will often make remarks about them when he knows they won't hear him.
Gameplay
Plaplap pilots his custom Goblin mech into battle. The main difference between his and other Banished Goblins was the Banished Scarab Focus Cannon jury-rigged onto where the Heavy needle cannon would be. The cannon's fire can easily melt through a Spartan's shields, if not outright kill them, due to its power. However, because of that, the cannon can only fire in short bursts without overheating. In addition, focused fire on the weapon with weapons like the Type-56 needler or the M41 SPNKR can cause it to explode, causing significant damage. The Goblin is also equipped with other weaponry including a Plasmastorm Launcher on the back of the mech, a Power Wrist, and an EMP stomp. Other abilities include Stabilizing Thrusters and Energy Shields. Plasma Weaponry can easily overload the shields, leaving Plaplap exposed to be easily headshot to kill him and destroy his mech. Additionally, Shock weapons and grenades can temporarily disable the mech.
