“Oracle the Destroyer” Mashina – Edenworld Saga fan character
Born in Ignaz and residing in Edenworld, Oracle is an over-sized heavy weight type mashina (“a race of huge, machine-like metal elementals” as quoted) with no aligned element. Four hundred and seventy five years old with poor flight maneuverability, exceedingly heavy, (beyond one hundred tonnes!) with a head height of thirty two feet. Oracle has been regarded by many of the other mashina as a mech’ well enough left alone; never really content with helping to expand or build up Edenworld, nor assisting in maintenance and or searching for potential Guardia. The only job he has yet to really complain about, in fact, is the construction of munitions for long range weapons and or weapons handling in general. Which in turn figures for his practical adoration for fighting, be it sparring other mashina or destroying devils and devil mashina to pieces. Armaments include two variable-ammo vulcans attached to his head, variable-ammo heavy machine guns on his arms, two long-range variable-ammo rail cannons on his back, a rocket-powered “Megaton Hammer” that he carries between the rail cannons, and twin heavy-plasma cannons in his arms that severely drains his central core; and likewise, his ninety-six hour average operation time.
Munitions: for all solid-shell guns unless stated otherwise. All spare magazines clipped around Oracle’s waistline, or within the body itself.
Piercing rounds; Standard armor piercing rounds with bored adamant* tips for maximum penetrative ability. Primary ammunition Oracle uses for all guns.
*adamant; a metal, strong as diamond but without the crystalline brittleness associated with diamond.
Personnel rounds; These lightweight, snub-nosed rounds are designed exclusively for subduing organic targets such as humans or even hybrids if necessary. Not made to [kill] the target. Somewhat useless in the railguns; the speed they’re propelled to burns them up before they can reach maximum effective range.
Explosive rounds; for heavy machine gun usage only. Lower-rate of fire then the other shots, flies in an arc. Makes full usage of the higher caliber available in the gatling gun though. Highly-explosive shells for terror, profit, and tactical combat, these can easily rip armor away from a fellow mashina; and explode devils to pieces of course.
Experimental fragmentation rounds; machine gun only again. These fire lower-grade explosive rounds imbued with shrapnel and nanomachine “blood” from mashina. Reacts violently with vertebrates, invertebrates, and generally, anything that can move on it’s own power outside of machines and mashina. So anything organic such as humans basically, while only causing structural damage to inorganic structures and beings. Flies in an arc due to propellant and effective range restraints.
Defining characteristics:
Other then the overlarge railguns hanging just beyond his shoulders, his unusual height even for a mashina, the drum magazine-style ears and his oddly-shaped triangular arms, other defining features include the one eye in his skull that can freely swivel about in the cross-shaped socket, and tank-tread heels that serve as a means of ground propulsion outside of normal walking or running.
Personality:
Unlike other mashina, Oracle tends to be laid back and easy-going; outside of what he does best of course. Like other mashina, Oracle can be very curious about things he does not understand, and tries to get such things explained to him as best as possible. Unfortunately, again in resemblance to other Mashina, Oracle can be a xenophobe in regards to other races and human males; though to a much lesser degree then said other mashina. This is thanks in part to his somewhat unusual 50/50 law and chaos computer brain; which in turn causes him to be more sociable. And likewise more destructive in combat; using a combination of both logical calculation and chaotic instinct. Sociability aside, when it comes to races, mashina pride always wins out in the end.
