Rise of Boa
Like his partner, Prototype Aegis, Boa had over a decade of work put into his creation. His creator is Horace McArthur, who envisioned an unbeatable robotic duo, and that is exactly what he created. Boa's design is significantly different from Claymore's if not the exact opposite. His design is more simplistic as he does not use an advance shielding system but his armor is slightly denser than it would appear. He was built with a kinetic accelerator, which allows him to move and strike with blinding speed. He was meant to be a stealth and reconnaissance robot but he appears to be able to fight as well or even better than Claymore.
Boa was the first of the robotic duo to be completed which was shortly after the defeat of Prototype-100. Prototype-100 was Boa's predecessor as it was also built for speed but combined the power of both Boa and Claymore. This was a powerful construct but Horace felt that concentrating on just speed or strength would be best and thus he created two to mach one-another. Boa rose and Claymore followed a month or so after.
