Username: Dragon Fogel
Name: Armsbreaker
Race: Munitions Disposal Unit
Gender: None
Color: #778899
Biography: The world was at war. There were no safe havens. The tanks tore through every city, bombs were dropped on every capital, and soldiers slaughtered each other in the streets. There was no such thing as a civilian any more; either you killed or you were killed.
And Dianne Sarm was sick of it all. Twenty years ago, when this whole mess had started, she had been training as an engineer, with a dream of creating a machine that would change the world. Since then, she'd been conscripted to design new engines of war, which she only did because they needed to fight off the engines of war the enemy was using.
But over the years, and as governments fell and retained her services, she smuggled a few spare parts into a secluded area of the research bunker. Over twenty years of rare free moments, she slowly built the machine that would put an end to all war: the Armsbreaker.
Made from an incredibly durable alloy, the Armsbreaker would walk onto a battlefield and smash every piece of weaponry, from the smallest of pistols to the largest of tanks. The soldiers would be left with only knives and their bare hands if they cared to continue the fighting.
No one can say if it would have succeeded in ending the war, however, as moments after Dianne turned it on, it vanished.
Weapons and Abilities: The Armsbreaker is crafted from materials that are very hard to damage. It can walk into a hail of heavy artillery with only minor scratches, which is pretty much necessary for doing its job.
The Armsbreaker carries no weapons save its own powerful limbs; it has two powerful claws in place of arms, which it will use to physically crush any heavy weaponry it comes across. Its legs are quite powerful as well, and it can deliver a nasty kick if it needs to.
It also has jets installed in its feet, and is capable of sustained flight. Ms. Sarm realized early on that it would need to be able to challenge helicopters and planes or they'd just shoot it from the sky until it stopped moving.
Description: The Armsbreaker is a large humanoid robot, roughly the size of an adult grizzly bear. It was cobbled together from spare parts and very much looks like it; Dianne wasn't especially concerned with aesthetics so long as it worked.
Personality-wise, the Armsbreaker is completely devoted to its mission of destroying every gun it recognizes. It will pursue this task with the highest priority no matter the situation. It's capable of speech, but isn't much of a conversationalist; mostly it tells disarmed targets to surrender to avoid needless injury.
Speaking of that, the Armsbreaker will not intentionally harm humans, though it won't be especially concerned with protecting them if it's in the middle of disarmament. It also has some basic programming for self-preservation, which mostly boils down to "run away if you come across something that actually poses a threat to you".

There's no reason for this | Or this | Death is inevitable | You can't challenge fate | The smallest change | I'm overwhelmed
I'm serious | It makes perfect sense | Easy as ABC! | I can't even explain it | Cleaning up someone else's mess
I suck | I rule | I've got it made | Really, I'm serious | This bugs me | It's all lies | I want to believe | Beauty is a curse
