History
Little is known about the history of this device. Carbon dating of identifiable metals puts it at around 42,000 years old. There are other elements which make up its being, however the war takes precedence. It was first discovered by an archaeological expedition 10 years ago under the orders of Emperor Cole. The purpose of the search was to try and find ancient weapons and technologies which could be adapted to fight the Hamidon. It was discovered in an ancient temple which looked to have been ransacked by thieves long, long ago. The statue, apparently part of a defence system, was found to be in a state of complete disarray; bashed in by the intruders, most likely. However, the technology appeared to be more advanced than should have been available at the time and so it was ordered to be retrieved and studied.
After much puzzle-work, scientists managed to reconstruct the device to the best of their ability. They reinforced its armor with advanced polymers, gave it a more friendly face, installed some of the new kinetic projectors, upgraded the power system, and disabled it's ability to speak (the screams got to be too much for the technicians). Its speech has been rewired so that anyone other than it can turn it on or off. They also completely wiped its memory and implanted an advanced clockwork loyalty program while maintaining some of the original persona.
With any luck, and lots of training, this device might be just the thing that Emperor Cole needs to penetrate the outer shell of the Hamidon and deliver a payload that will end the threat once and for all.
Origins
Virtually nothing is known about it. It could be alien, created by an ancient race, or thrown together from spare parts at a junk yard. Basically, all anyone has been able to ascertain is that it is old, strong, loyal, and one tough creature. Currently theorized to be the alternate-reality version of Brass Angel.
Current News
Is currently working for Emperor Cole and the Loyalist Party.
Habits
If bored, it tends to go out and pound random passers-by into the ground. Also has an intense hatred of crickets for unknown reasons.
Enemies
There are currently no known persons with vendettas against it.
