Hello, I saw your post saying we could share our dw ocs. Now... Im no artist, all I got really is a description of him. I haven't used him in anything yet. But I love him and wanted to ramble him to someone new.  Sorry for the wall of text ^^;
So Sam(ra. His name is samra but he prefers Sam.) 
He is based off those old fashion Hollywood cameras, with the film reels and tripod like legs. He is a ringleader circus themed gameshow host (lore wise, he is basically Vee before she was created). Would've been "recycled" for materials or something if he didn't run into, then befriend Vee. One thing lead to another and he just became a stage hand type toon who'll help get good angles for camera shots and act as a side-character in a select few episodes or movies.
He also ends up being unofficially Vees' "big brother" partly due to the two being the most tech based toons (both due to how they are effected if splashed with water and their shared love of gameshows.) Relationship wise he gets along best with… roughly every canon character. Only really dis-trusting Dandy (during the… ingame period of twisteds and all that. Liking to mess with Shrimpo and Glisten. He kinda tries to act as a big brother to every toon he runs into. Teasing, hyping up. Consoling. Even just listening when they need a ear to vent into or a shoulder to cry on. Best friends with Finn, sharing his love of puns. With Sprout, Like Vee; he would also call him berry-boy. But if he gets called outdated-tech like in the interaction with Vee. He just gets all silent and sad. Beyond that the two get along well enough. He takes Shelly by surprise sometimes by actively noticing her (in that, I mean he actively looks around to see if she is with someone or is by herself). Asking her how her day is going, if she wants to talk about something. Hunting her down to give a random dino plushie he found in the lost n found. This… all sorta stems from how he knows what it feels like to be ignored. As that is why he was being replaced by Vee. The audience just… started to ignore his onsite show and didn't buy a lot of the merch based on him.
He wears a ringleader jacket, and a top-hat over his frontmost film reel. Has one single eye. No visible mouth (feeds on batteries for energy). size-wise, he is the tallest toon - when comparing to the cannon toons. No real clue what their canon sizes are but someone made a list and the tallest in that list was Teagan, Goob, and Roger at 2 feet 8 inches He stands to just about 5 feet without extending his legs. And 7 if he extends his legs completely. (the extended legs aren’t gameplay related, just partly how he gets good top down angles. He is a camera after all) His back film reel acts sorta like his brain, take it off him and he just... he can function, he is just slow and not very... reactive or perceptive. His voice is through a old-speaker, sight traces of static lace his words at times. His arms and legs are extendable, sorta like Goob but not nearly as long. Just three feet of extra reach. - He doesn't walk, per say. He has wheels for feet and rolls around. Gameplay wise, he has zero stars in movement speed and stamina (will explain below). Two in extraction speed. Two in skill checks. And three in stealth. (extraction speed and skill check is due to him having difficulty getting low enough to use the valve on the machines.) He counts as a main. Though his twisted is a rare. Since he counts as a main he also has the two heart limit other mains have. His Passive ability is "On a roll" Sprinting is disabled, instead he has momentum. Where the longer he keeps moving, the faster he gets. Starting at one star speed and reaching five stars in 20 seconds of nonstop moving. Turning becomes a little difficult at high speed. (Think ice levels in some games.) speed-based trinkets do boost his speed/momentum.
His Active ability is "Big brother" 
He extends his arms out and grabs a targeted twisted within range (if it isn't a main) and throws it after two seconds, stunning it for 5 seconds and sending it 16 studs/feet away from him in the direction he is facing. 
Twisted-wise, He has two twisted-forms. Wiped out and "not" wiped out. Only one of the two can appear on a floor.
He is missing his hat, has slash marks along his back through his jacket. And a gaping hole near his neck that leaks ichor. His right arm is stuck extended with hardened ichor in the joints and the hand is replaced by a blob of hardened ichor, turning it into a bludgeoning club type thing. 
His single eye camera emits a solid red spotlight, lighting up most of his sightline. In his pre-wipe out state he is a lot like T.Glisten. However he doesn’t require someone to be near him. He is just on a timer until he snaps. During that timer, he actively stuns twisteds by giving them a smack with his club-arm. prioritizing chasing twisteds over wandering twisteds. Ignores docile twisteds like RnD, rodger, Connie, and glisten (before he snaps)
He still has his momentum type movement so he'll slowly build up speed, but struggles with stopping or turning. When the timer is zero and he snaps, he lets out a warning static-filled cry (voice box is messed up, he has no growls or a lot of voice lines, just static and single words that slip between the static. Like “contestants” “No” and names of toons who enter his sightlines. “Vee” “Shelly” etc. After he snaps, it is purely static. No voice lines or screams or snarls. Just static.) As a twisted (post snapped), his ability is to stick onto a target. Stealth stats don't determine targets for him, first toon to enter his sights is hard focused until it stays out of sight long enough.
His wiped out state is already snapped, but he can’t move from where he crashed, his legs are broken and his arm with a actual hand is not attached to his shoulder anymore. In this state he only serves as an alarm. Making a lot of noise to draw other twisteds over if someone enters his vision. In this state, he is treated like a airhorn, drastically lowering the effected toons’ stealth stat when he spots them.
Get too close, and he can hit you himself.
Trinket - Spare Film reel.
Stamina drain when sprinting is decreased by %25. Enabling longer moments to just book it either away from twisteds or towards a machine. Hope you enjoyed the OC rambling
Wow that's quite a read, I appreciate the long ramble I love when people put a lot of detail into their characters ^^
It's sweet how he acts like a brother figure to everyone, aw the kids don't love him enough that he's slowly getting forgotten <\3 Feel like as the show progresses kids would lean more into the new stuff. Shelly and Sam are both representing the past in a sense, but Shelly focuses a lot more on the pre-historic dinosaur stuff, Unfortunately I think kids like new tech more like Vee.
His mechanic is so interesting. gotta be constantly running to gain speed he'd make a good backup distractor as long as he doesn't stop, imagine accidentally stopping while being chased by a Twisted that'd be hell ESPECIALLY since you said there's no sprinting button.
Overall, nice OC! I can tell you put a LOT of thought into em and that's awesome to hear
