"... Identity confirmed." The beam saber instantly shuts off, looking like nothing was there to begin with. The mecha stands up straight. "Azai, if you need emergency fuel or food, I am willing to share mine. I have a very large reserve for fuel." The thruster pods wiggle a bit. The weapons retract, followed by Tabris picking up Jackhammer. One last request is made from Kaselith, "Lead us to extraction."

Pilot Character Sheet
Name: Kalida Evergreen
Appearance:
Age: 26
Personality: Kalida Evergreen is a rather nice woman, well, used to be nice. Kalida used to be your average teenager, although quite more adventurous than most. She used to be fairly upbeat, peppy and caring, notably helping any animal she came across. She definitely didn't have the marks to be an NC pilot. That is until she met Professor Varei, who created Nyx 01. After a series of tortorus experimentation and torture itself, she became an ultra bitchy girl. She would not take anyone's shit, fighting them off and keeping them away.
Backstory: Kalida Evergreen used to be more nomadic, adventuring around on the edge of Red-Star territory. She lived a relatively calm and peaceful life, despite being close to Red-Star. That is until she stumbled upon mad scientist Professor Varei, who was exiled from Red-Star (surprising, wow.) He captured Kalida and tortured her, the details will be spared. Fast forward a while, Kalida became extremely obedient and an excellent fighter. Paired with AI Nyx 01 she eventually learned how to work with the advanced program. They trained together, essentially becoming sister and artificial brother.
However, Varei had other plans for the two. Both were crammed into an NC he constructed (with help via bribing and intimidating local metalworkers and others with the skills to build an NC). It is unknown how he got the NC Core, likely theories point smuggling, but nonetheless, Motherwill was created. After initial pairing and training, they both became a devastating pair. After the Haven/Red-Star war, Kalida and Nyx heard of what was done, construction of more NC Cores. For Nyx and Kalida, this was a prime opportunity for them. Using the SERAPH Flight System, they went on a mission to steal as many NC Cores as possible... However the other groups, Denver-Vegas, Fairbanks and Paragon showed up. They made a deal, now they fight for Denver-Vegas and Paragon, with certain deals in place.
Tactical Preferences and Skills: Dirty dirty fighting, Kalida doesn't like directly fighting, however, fights the same as Nyx 01. This means trickery and toying.
Notes: Kalida has a cybernetic eye and artificial ears with an inbuilt communication device for Nyx 01 to use. No one knows Kalida pilots Motherwill.
Pilot Character Sheet
Name: Nyx 01
Appearance: Hardlight/Hologram/Transmission
Age: N/A (AKA I really don't wanna fuck with construction dates)
Personality: Rude, rude, sneaky, rude. Nyx 01 has always been rude and dangerous, having discarded basic AI programming, he has more control over himself. He is limited by nothing in his code, all blocks in most AI have been lifted for him. This means he can constantly learn, adapt, amongst other things which are absolutely horrible in the eyes of morals. He is known for using deception to get what he wants, except for when he makes deals with corps. Most of his actions revolve around trickery and chaos. He is also known for insulting and berating his enemies.
Backstory: Nyx 01 was designed by exiled Professor Varei, to be used in NC Motherwill. Nyx 01 was designed to be exactly as he is today, most of his life was uneventful until Kalida showed up. Since then, Nyx 01 was put through violent training methods. He was found to work well with Kalida and paired up as battle partners. With testing, training and experimentation, they fought together all the time. Nyx 01 did an experiment on Kalida more than once. Nyx 01 struck a deal with Denver-Vegas and Paragon after flying quite a distance, D-V supplies a few mechs according to Nyx 01's specifications, Paragon provides the pilots. In return, Nyx 01 gives all the spoils of battle and more, including tactical info.
Tactical Preferences and Skills: Same as Kalida.
Notes: Nyx 01 is an AI. For all intents and purposes, Nyx 01 is believed to pilot Motherwill.
NC Character Sheet
Code-name: Motherwill
Appearance:
Body Type: Flight/Bipedal
Type of NC: Medium Assault
Equipment & Armaments:
SERAPH Flight System [Volkov] - Advanced flight system sourced from Volkov, meaning Motherwill is stupid fast. Light thrusters were also installed in the legs, completely negating most of the need to walk and also adding dashing functionality.
Construction Equipment [Volkov] - Nyx can produce drones with these, which is his main method of attacking. The drones are energy focused. The construction equipment is hidden in the SERAPH Flight System pods.
Palm Mounted Beam Saber [Inhouse] - A hidden palm mounted beam saber, this is undetectable to almost all forms of scanning. It is mounted on the right hand.
Piercing Spear [Inhouse] - A spear mounted to the left arm, designed to cause as maximum pain as possible and pierce through NCs.
Red Star Chassis [Red-Star] - The Chassis is sourced from Red-Star parts, and is relatively light.
Hardlight Projector [Fairbanks] - This projector is for strengthening the chassis and showing the AI's form
Reactor Phase Shift [Inhouse/Red-Star] - When activated, the armor on this NC moves around to expose more vents, shortly followed by the NC glowing red. A sudden power increase can be detected within the NC itself, increasing thruster output. It also increases the damage output of the Beam Saber or converts it to a high-heat, high-power energy emitter weapon. It also allows usage for the AT Burst weapon.
AT Burst [Inhouse] - When used, the area around the NC begins producing noise, a high pitched shrieking/whining noise. The buildings and structures around the NC begin to bend and be pushed. After the initial charge up, an energy-based explosion occurs around the NC in a sphere, however, the NC is not affected. The weapon works off the principle of creating a standard energy shield, rapidly overcharging it, then releasing that energy. This can only be used when the Reactor Phase Shift is active.
External SMG [Modified Red-Star] - External SMG held in the NCs hand, it has been modified to recharge faster than normal Energy-based SMGs. It recharges by being connected to connection points in the upper leg.
Notes: The only weapons listed on the public sheet is the SERAPH Flight System, Piercing Spear, and the Chassis. The others are for the GMs only. The power of AT Burst includes throwing NCs through buildings. The speed reference is White Glint's Boss Fight

Notes: Pulverizer PROTOTYPE NCs are not controlled directly by Nyx or Kalida. # refers to a number, for example: Pulverizer G-1.
Personality: Kxeyun is very clingy, due to her past and her separation anxiety. To help cope with this, she can be found playing with dolls in her room and has named one after herself. When someone tries to leave her alone she immediately goes for a hug and begs them to stay. If she likes said person as a close friend she panics when they leave, thinking she's done something wrong, only comforted by reassuring words or their return. To stay close to people, she strives to outperform her whole team, thinking it'll help her be liked.
For other interactions, she tends to be really open about herself and arches her back to show off her body. Her goal in life seems to be getting as many friends as humanly possible and never leave them behind. She's also very kind but will kill to protect her friends. She likes sharing with her friends, like food, music, toys, and random facts. Some of her hobbies is making food and giving little treats. Due to her past, she is VERY strong willed.
Backstory: Kxeyun's history beyond being part of Denver is unknown due to family-hopping and being in a rural area. Originally part of Denver-Vegas, Kxeyun was in the Reality Games for recognition, as an NC pilot. However, her effectiveness with her Reality Game NC was noted to be above the norm. Due to her efficiency in the hunting grounds and exceptionally high killstreaks, she was offered a slot into the military despite being extremely competitive with other NCs, unsurprisingly as a pilot. she was part of the force dealing with other corps, specifically NCs and large force movements.
Her NC was a prototype, essentially a Pseudo Hunter-Killer NC. They never expected it to work well, considering Denver uses ranged weapons and this NC called "Sahaquiel", meaning "Ingenuity of God", is an all melee build. It is not known if the NC manufacturer is religious or not, though Kxeyun isn't, leading the name to probably just be a stylistic point. When placed in battle, upon recognizing how well it worked against other NCs, they put development into new equipment for it. One of these equipment pieces was a mouth, added in case if an enemy restrained both arms.
During that time, an unknown individual approached Kxeyun and taught her of Haven and Red-Star. They offered her and Sahaquiel a way to get to Haven too, she regrettably accepted. On her way to Haven via a cargo ship, a Denver-Vegas capture NC intercepted, they CLEARLY didn't want her to escape. The Denver NC reportedly boarded the ship and began scanning. Kxeyun managed to sneak into her NC and engage the Denver NC, which didn't expect it to be ready to fight. Sahaquiel reportedly tore the capture NC to bits in a surprise attack. No surviving pilot of the capture NC was found. Denver gave up after that.
Since then, Sahaquiel and Kxeyun were left alone and got to Haven safely, they were accepted. Kxeyun was checked and has a high synch rate with Sahaquiel, 89.6. Other NCs drop considerably lower, 76.5 on average. As such, she has Sahaquiel as her designated NC.
Tactical Preferences and Skills: Kxeyun's personality makes it hard for her to stay at a distance, she WANTS to charge in and rip an NC to shreds. Her vision with an NC is solid, same with outside one. She's a good assistant for Sniper NCs as she can get up close and distract the enemy, or grab and position them to be hit by long-range units.
Notes: Kxeyun has a favorite song.

NC Character Sheet
Code-name: Sahaquiel, Ingenuity of God.
Appearance: (ignore scale models in the corner)
Body Type: Bipedal, bulky.
Type of NC: Heavy Melee
Equipment & Armaments: Dual Engines: This mecha has 2 engines. Primary is for main body functions, the secondary is for the thrusters and arm-mounted shield piercers.
Shield Piercers: This mecha has reverse engineered shield modules in the heavily armored arms, allowing the arms to bypass shields entirely. However, notably, this means the arms are unprotected when the shield piercers are in use.
Heavy Claws: This mecha has heavy claws, designed for ripping through buildings and other NCs. However, notably, this prevents the NC from using traditional weaponry like assault rifles or pistols.
Shields: This mecha has a set of energy shields, designed to stop kinetic and energy rounds. When the shield piercers are active, this NC cannot extend these shields to the arms, leaving the body and legs shielded.
Mouth: This mecha has a mouth, not meant for consuming things, but meant to rip through things with a powerful bite. This mouth is nearly impossible to see when closed and near undetectable on sensors.
Viper Thrusters: This mecha is equipped with hidden Viper Thrusters, giving it additional temporary boosts of speed and punching power when activated, this helps make the mecha faster than normal Heavy Class NCs
Ejection Pod: This mecha is equipped with an ejection pod, that ejects Pilot (and Passenger) with core system data, to prevent capture by the enemy. The pod is boosted by rockets and lands 80-150 meters away from the NC, depending on the firing angle. When it fires, a large metal plate on the back slides down, and if it cannot, it is ejected by separation thrusters.
Notes: This mecha is unusual, it stands at 6 meters for normal height and when it stands fully up 8 meters. It also has a 3 jointed leg system. The mecha also has a secondary passenger seat where someone can accompany the pilot in battles. It serves no function other than showing camera and sensor feed to the passenger. It has been noted that the Pilot tends to vocalize growling/roaring and has it come out of the loudspeakers, the reason for this is unknown. Sahaquiel's roars sounds like this.
Pilot Character Sheet
Name: Sybil TABRIS (Old name is: Tabris Kaworu)
Appearance: N/A, Sybil TABRIS is just a brain in a jar meant to keep brains alive wired to the NC from the inside.
Age: 24
Personality: All data pre-merge is rendered false, only showing completed merge data. Sybil TABRIS is a ruthless murderer in battle but captures when needed to. She doesn't talk often in battle but when outside of it she can be found talking to other pilots. She dislikes Havenites for "Disgracing the name of the NC and Red-Star in all their glory." She doesn't seem to consider other corps to consist of humans, only machines to cut down. Sybil TABRIS is quite rude to prisoners as well, trash talking them usually.
Backstory: Sybil TABRIS' life is an unknown, other than a high synch score resulted in being given an NC. Sybil TABRIS was also a Japanese Slave Pilot.
Event: NC/Human Instrumentality. Sybil TABRIS was picked as an attempt for the "Ultimate NC", in which it was classed as semi-successful. Sybil TABRIS was put through a series of torturing tests to test her rate of success. They deemed the chance given as good enough and begun an operation with talented medical staff. Sybil TABRIS had her mind transplanted directly into a containment unit meant to keep it alive and well. The mind was then integrated into an NC directly, after a bit of figuring out what the actual fuck happened, she told the scientists that "It doesn't feel like I am the pilot to the NC anymore, it feels like I am the NC. It feels, oddly human... My burning engine feels like a heart, my hands feel so strong..." It also was noted her sync score rocketed up to 100% sync and hasn't dropped.
Tactical Preferences and Skills: Sybil TABRIS prefers close/melee/moderate range combat, alongside swift and beautiful moves.
Notes: This pilot is merged with an NC and has a 100% synch rate. Sybil TABRIS has a favorite song

NC Character Sheet
Code-name: TABRIS
Appearance:
Body Type: Bipedal/Hover
Type of NC: General-Purpose with Interception capabilities.
Equipment & Armaments: Heavy Energy Shields - This NC is equipped with advanced energy shields.
Dual Sword/SMGs - This NC is equipped with 2 monomolecular swords designed for cutting through NC armor, which at the base has integrated SMGs. They can slide on and off the arms of the NC.
Heavy Anti-EMP Materials - This NC is equipped with physical protection against almost all forms of an EMP attack.
Directed EMP Wave - This NC's horns on the side of the head can fire a directed EMP wave or a surrounding one.
Assault Rifle - This NC can be outfitted with an assault energy rifle instead of the Dual Sword/SMGs.
MTAM Itano - Crazily moving swarm missiles meant to cripple an NC, for interception missions. They're mounted on the shoulder pods and can only be used once per mission.
Hover Engines - This NC has hover engines for, you guessed it, hovering at high speeds.
Magnetized Net Launcher - This NC usually comes with a magnetized net launcher attached to the lower back of the NC, designed to capture NCs slightly bigger than it.
Notes: Due to the nature of the pilot, a lifeform scan will result in no lifeforms in it being detected, giving the nickname of the "Ghost NC"
Kxeyun listens along, pondering her battle paths. Though, when she hears Terra's voice, the almost concerned look on her face shifts to a cheeky grin. "Don't worry! I've got this in the bag! I promise I won't be disabled as quickly as I was last time!" Unlike some of the others, Kxeyun is not nervous, worried, or scared. She's excited to be back out there and protecting what she cares for most. The girl then proceeds to climb into her NC and begin the startup procedure and, of course, the Denver prototype NC wasn't originally designed to carry out jamming weaponry, so the NC's OS freaks out. Though, it seems like the machine is acting a bit... Oddly. MENTAL CONTAMINATION: ZERO PERCENT. LINK STATUS: HEALTHY. SAHAQUIEL: ONLINE. COMMAND>START: INITIATED. SYSTEM WARNING!!
Unrecognized hardware has been detected! Continue boot? [Y/N] Y Command acknowledged. Booting continuing...
System: Identified Hardwire communication systems. CommControl: Hardwire communication system online, established as HWCMM. HWCMM: Online, ports empty. Idling. System: Identified Heavy Jammer equipment. CommControl: Warning! Jammer installed! Radio systems will be deactivated upon weapon trigger! SysWep: Heavy Jammer added to weapon list. Name established as Wideband Jammer. System: Continue boot...
SELF TEST COMPLETE.
When the coordinated launch occurs... Sahaquiel bolts at full speed with the others, tossing up soil and pavement, staying in formation. As soon as she reaches the barrier, it drops. The machine keeps running with the thrusters firing in sequence. The NC's shields raise as the visual sensors begin flicking about, trying to locate the tanks and other enemies. Based on Sahaquiel's movements, Kxeyun seems hellbent on keeping Terra safe.
Unbeknownst to Eileen, another mecha without the beacon on watches from nearby. The large machine stays concealed in the cover of the trees, unsure of the identity of Eileen, alongside being attacked by the natives, it observes closely, capturing every subtle move. The pilot, Kaselith Goto, mutters to herself, "Rather familiar... It moves like a friend. But so did the others." The machine moves subtly, prompting more muttering from Kase, "Itching to figure out who they are, Tabris? So am I... If they so much as run a light scan over here they'll see us, why not introduce ourselves first." The machine fires up the Beam Saber, dashing forwards with the powerful thrusters it has. With the agility of a cat, Tabris cuts through the trees in front of it, skidding to a stop in front of the mech, making sure to not hit the powered down machine with any sort of thruster backlash. The speakers fire up and Kaselith says "Unknown Mecha, state your intentions. Provided you do not seem like you are here to attack or capture, I will gladly deactivate my weapons."
From an exterior look, Tabris appears to be a completely normal, albeit shiny, mecha. The Beam Saber is positioned to defend its head, the thrusters are also pointed horizontally. It also is relatively crouched down, ready to pounce. It seems defensive over Azai, the blue lights softly glowing. The fins on the thruster pods also softly twitch, giving it a feeling of almost being alive... Too alive, one could say.
Kaselith is also blind, she can only see when using Tabris.
Personality: Kaselith is rather calm and collected most of the time. She usually says various things with deep meaning, usually sharing her fixation on humanity in them. Her most memorable phrase is "The fate of man... The hope of man is written in sorrow." When pushed to the edge, Kaselith will break, like most people. She also attaches emotions and personalization to things that are usually seen as non-living. She calls her mech with the pronouns "He" and "Him", alongside other various characterizations. She claims to be able to tell how her mech feels, alongside what it wants. She is also known to not care much for her own safety if it means others live.
Further data on this personality document involves Tabris more than Kaselith.
Kaselith has reportedly had deep interactions with Tabris, despite it not having a brain. She claims to know what it wants, needs, and what it longs for. Due to the nature of the linking method of Kaselith and Tabris, when piloted, Tabris has a tendency to "act on its own" when Kaselith is overstressed or in a dangerous situation. This is commonly associated with health systems failing to report if pilot Kaselith is alive. When this occurs, the Tabris/Kaselith hybrid is to be considered extremely dangerous and to avoid at all costs, until further data is observed, gathered and analysis is done.
Mech: Callsign: Tabris
Type: Flying/Bipedal Biomech
Appearance:
Loadout/abilities:
Plasma Repeater/Lance (PR/L) - Depending on which mode the mecha is in, this weapon switches from rapid firing plasma shots, to a high-precision high-power shot. Standard flight forces it into Plasma Repeater mode, but when in the more humanoid form, the mecha is able to put more power into the weapon, allowing it to function as a plasma lance.
Beam Saber Model F (BSMF) - The second hand of this mecha contains a beam saber emitter, allowing to use the superior speed of the mecha to dance around in a melee fight. This weapon cannot be used at the same time as the PR/L.
Mode Switch - This mecha can switch from a standard flight mode to a more humanoid appearance. The mode switch also introduces some changes to how the mecha behaves and functions.
In Pursuit Mode (PM), the mecha gains enhanced maneuverability with reduced weapon output. This is mainly for fighting other aircraft or flying mechas. The PR/L also functions in PR (Plasma Repeater) mode, and the Beam Saber cannot be used.
In humanoid mode (officially called Ground Strike Mode (GSM), despite this being inaccurate) the mecha loses enhanced maneuverability but gains more weapon output, the PR/L functions in PL (Plasma Lance) mode, the Beam Saber is enabled in this mode. The mecha also begins to hover instead of fly, however, it can still move around with the speed comparable to a helicopter.
Advanced Targeting System (ATS) - Due to the frantic nature of speedy flight combat, this mecha has an ATS, which quickly calculates a firing solution for the pilot. This functions in both combat modes, allowing for precise shooting in GSM and leading calculations in PM. In GSM it also assists with the usage of the BSMF.
Shield System - Standard shielding you'd find on most mechas, nothing special here.
Afterburner - The mecha has large thrusters on the shoulders of it, in PM the afterburners function as well, regular afterburners. However, in GSM their functionality changes entirely, giving short but powerful bursts of speed in conjunction with the almost hover-like attributes of GSM.
Repainter - The mecha is equipped with a missile repainter, it allows the mecha to force enemy missiles to strike something else. This module has the ability to return an entire swarm of missiles back to the enemy.
Harvesting Beam - Due to being a biomech, it needs to feed. This weapon only works on biomass, it disintegrates the targeted biomass and pulls it in, feeding the biomech directly.

"I sent all that? Doesn't sound much like me..." Kxeyun mutters, a finger scratching right below her lip. Her eyes glance up, looking at the modified Phoenix Inferno. Gentle muttering continues escaping her lips "A tail? Self-moving too... I might just steal that from when that thing gets torn apart." Notably, she doesn't treat Phoenix with respect now, teeth clenching seeing Alexander in that collar. "I have a bone to pick with him, not whoever is in that..." An exhale escapes her, eyes closing gently. She relaxes, then promptly saying "I can't disagree, a sniper would be good against those guns, disabling them would be a very good idea. I'm not the group leader, but I think we all know Osamu is dragging us into a battle of morals versus harsh necessities..." Her hand raises higher on her head, thumb and index finger above her eyebrows. "As much as I hate to say this, I think saving Terra's parents is likely a secondary objective, destroying Red-Star comes first. Despite saving them being secondary, it is still very much important."
Her gray eyes glance over the room, a sly smile forms. "Our squad is all capable of melee combat, I think we should go out and hunt in a pack, ganging up on one enemy NC at a time. Overwhelming them with numbers and firepower will quickly rip their remaining forces to shreds, quite literally so." She glances over to Terra "I hope you approve of that idea." Her eyes shift back to Osamu, sliding back into muttering "And now you're next..." She steps to the hologram, then talks directly to that monster of a person. "Osamu, an artificial human. Yes, I am the one Alexander protected. Yes, he was a bit much defending me while I, regrettably, talked down on Terra. Battles change mindsets, I did not mean it. But you want to know exactly why he defended me so much? It was because he believed in me and Haven. He believed in us, he was willing to fight to protect us. I nearly defeated him in battle, something that is uncommon, if not rare." She chuckles a tiny.
"Impressive, is it not? You're lucky I didn't bail off and tear another NC to shreds. I see you've made upgrades to Phoenix, Red-Star does not fail to design. However, you..." She pauses and takes a quick breath. "You, on the other hand, are the worst design I've seen so far. You're giggling like a little schoolgirl, you should get back to kindergarten." The smile spreads across her face "Did you try and get to Terra because she likes me? Darlin, she's tougher than that, you should know this by now. A defector, known better by her new team rather than her old master. How humiliating it must be, right? Are you even a person, being born from a tube and so dumb? If I didn't know better, I'd call you a child, rolling around throwing a tantrum because you lost your forces and your victory. With that, I'm done with your childish attention seeking game." She turns on a dime and walks back to where she was, letting out a large exhale. "That felt good to do."
"Someone almost betrayed us? That's not good..." Kxeyun thinks, the faint holographic figure of her over in a corner of the room, her hologram was tuned to be lifelike as possible. A silent, breathless, huff is let out, she also looks a bit frustrated. She looks towards Cody, thoughts prowling in her head. "So he's leading the other group, huh. Guess he's good, although I know nada about him." Her eyes continue gazing over everyone else, locking onto Terra. Her gaze softens instantly. "Terra... Terra... I like her, she's nice." her eyes close, relaxing just a bit. "She's more than just a friend... Close friend? Nah... Best friend. Yeah, that makes sense, best friend." she lets her eyes open a bit
She noticed Anna almost burst into the room, which gets her to let out a loose giggle "So we got someone who wants to show themselves too? Cute." A wide grin spreads across her face, she finds this strangely funny, perhaps a bit embarrassing for Anna. Seamus however, grabbed her attention like a large black bear on a sheet of ice. Despite his question, she keeps her silence, unwilling to repeat that story again. She gazes away, pretty stoked that she's with Terra next battle. Hopefully, she doesn't be stupid and tries to assault the big baddie head-on next time. She still has leftover faint phantom pain from that knife...
However, upon hearing Anna speak again, Kxeyun perks up and the hologram brightens a bit to make her more noticeable. The hologram walks over to Anna and she says "Really? Another Denver-Vegas defector? I'm Kxeyun, Kxeyun Amarati. I pilot Sahaquiel. Currently, I'm in the medbay." A sheepish giggle escapes her lips as her hand reaches up and rubs her neck. "I sorta... Attacked Red-Star's biggest combatant head on, I almost won too... Anyways, yeah. I'm not sure if you know of Sahaquiel. She's very powerful up close, being a melee fighter of course, I just hope she's all fixed up for next fight... Even if I'm not totally ready, I'll still fight!" Seems like she's back to her cheery self.
