Felsera and her M1404-Medium Beast Type "Hunter"
Show Content
Spoiler
Driver Name: Felsera
Base Data: A member of a humanoid avian race known as Aereons, Felsera is covered from head to toe in a mane of beautiful purple feathers. Though her race has large wings, they cannot fly, and instead typically drape over her body like a cloak. Her hands and feet both end in razor sharp claws, though most of her race prefer to let their talons dull over time, Felsera keeps her's razor sharp.
Felsera's race has evolved a rather unique variation on the fight or flight reflex known as 'hunter's trance.' In an act similar to flipping a switch in their brain, an Aereon enters into a trancelike state of mind. Their civilized, social nature vanishes entirely, and they instead become viscous animals, unable to feel pain, fear, or mercy. In trance mode they maintain their intellect, and become ruthless hunters, stopping at nothing until whatever they've decided to destroy has stopped existing.
Character Description: Typically dressed in a relatively unassuming T-Shirt and a pair of work pants. She also has a pair of square glasses she needs in order to see. Her eyes are that of someone disinterested in whatever happens to be around her, and she's not known to talk much. In fact, in general she seems completely detached from everything.
That all flips around completely when she enters hunter's trance. Her pupils narrow into slits, and she discards her glasses, as though some natural instinct takes over for her senses. She takes on a playful attitude with whatever she's marked as her prey, taunting them as she laughs maniacally. Her animal-like mech becomes 'part' of her, like an extension of her natural weapons. In this form she's also completely reckless, picking a fight with whatever in the area happens to look strongest.
Biography: Born a spoiled rich girl, the daughter of a wealthy businessman, a lifetime of getting whatever she wanted has left Felsera jaded and detached. She began entering into mech fighting circles at a young age, and quickly grew addicted to the rush of battle. As she perfected her trance mode, she became more and more bloodthirsty, going from simply disabling her enemies, to ripping them to shreds.
As she grew more and more addicted to battle, she became more and more detached from normal life. Because her status enables her to go through life so passively, she's all but stopped existing in normal life, truly 'living' only in the heat of battle. She now seeks out stronger and stronger opponents, constantly yearning for the thrill of the hunt.
Mech Affinity: 30% normally, 90% in 'hunter trance'
Mech Nickname: Hunter
Base Data: ~2 Ton weight. ~4 Meters high in biped mode, hunches down to ~2 meters in quadruped mode. ~3 Meters long from snout to rear.
Mech description: Originally developed to aid police in searching for fugitives, the Hunter resembles a large canine animal. Its four limbs each end in massive metallic claws. Though they're designed to dig into terrain and walls, the claws are capable of grasping, and can deal some serious damage when weaponized. Though the cockpit is located in the torso, the mech has a headlike appendage containing its advanced sensor array. The snout contains all manner of high-end tracking equipment, giving the mech its nickname.
Ordinarily the Hunter will stand on its hind legs, in a hunched over bipedal position, poised to use its forelimbs as weapons. However, it can easily shift into a quadrupedal mode for quicker movement. While unskilled Hunter pilots view these as separate modes for combat and movement respectively, advanced pilots view them as two parts of the same machine, and will smoothly switch between them in combat as they attack and evade.
Despite its heavy weight, the Hunter's immense limb strength, combined with advanced firmware renders it incredibly agile. Its thick claws can also dig into nearly any structure, enabling it to quickly scale sheer cliffs, walls, or pretty much anything strong enough to not collapse at its touch.
Special details: Felsera's Hunter has been equipped with several high-yield ion thrusters on its back. Though it's still far too heavy to fly, the boosters enable it to achieve absurdly high speeds in short bursts, as well as enhancing its climbing abilities. Ion thrusters have also been mounted on the elbows of the forelimbs, enabling her to enhance the strength of her primary claw strike to the point of ripping through steel like wet tissue paper. Unfortunately, this deals almost as much damage to the Hunter as whatever it's attacking, and so the powered slashes are reserved for particularly armored opponents. Her normal, unpowered slashes are devastating enough as-is anyway.
She's also modified the snout with a powerful hydraulic bite, granting her more versatility in melee combat. A flamethrower has also been mounted inside the 'mouth,' providing some token range capabilities. She's occasionally been known to fire the flamethrower while biting down on a target, heating and melting the target as she rips straight through it. Like the powered claw strike, this deals significant damage to the Hunter's snout as well, and is in general a rarely-seen technique.
