((Re-posted due to posting error)) Name: RK-273 AKAM ‘Tempest’ Kaiju Type: Guardian Mecha Story Appearances: Advent Height: 100 meters Length: None Weight: 16,880 tons Wingspan: 104 meters (when fully extended) Maximum Flight Speed: Mach 3 Powers/Abilities: Firestorm Cannon- The gattling gun-esque cannon on Tempest’s right shoulder can fire pellet-shaped bolts of red-orange, superheated plasma, at the rate of 250 bolts per minute. Each bolt is roughly the strength of a rocket-propelled grenade, and the firing can be sustained up to fifteen seconds before it requires a 30-second cool down time. Harmonic Cannon- The octagonal-shaped weapon on Tempest’s left shoulder can emit high-frequency waves of sound (in a cone-shape) attuned to a certain object’s frequency. When the two frequencies contact, the former will begin to erase the latter, effectively damaging said object. Before this can be used, the target must be locked on and allowed a three-second scan time before the weapon becomes effective. After said adjustments are made, the weapon usually deals as much as Rainbow Mothra’s Mega Buster attack. Swarmers- Tempest’s chest plates can open to reveal six parallel-placed holes. Each hole is actually a missile tube, allowing Tempest to fire off six missiles with slightly above-average strength at a time. He can only hold 20 missiles at a time, but the lack of storage is made up with the fact the missiles are heat-seeking. Tempest Blade- Quite possibly Tempest’s trademark weapon, the broadsword-like weapon composing his right hand and part of his forearm. Within the blade are two heating coils that, upon activation, can superheat the blade up to 2100 degrees Celsius, without damaging the blade’s structure. If this wasn’t enough, a tesla coil also lies within the blade, able to charge it with up to 56,000 volts of electricity for up to 7 seconds at a time. Alternatively, the blade can split down the middle (width-wise) to reveal the tesla coil, allowing the electricity to be discharged in wide bolts. These bolts have half of the voltage than when coursed through the blade, but they’re enough to fry poorly-protected circuitry and fry some flesh. Flamethrowers- The twin barrels on Tempest’s left forearm can expel streams of azure fire reaching temps. of up to 1350 degrees Celsius. The flames can be sustained for roughly 4 seconds before a cool-down time is required. Has enough fuel for 90 seconds of sustained fire; cool down time 30 seconds each. Energy Shield- Stored beneath the two flamethrower barrels (which slide away when activated) is a small force field generator, enough to create a 30-meter diameter, concave disk-shaped field of teal energy from his arm. The field stops most energy-based attacks below Spiral Ray strength. But doesn‘t do much against physical attacks. Can be sustained for 4 seconds at a time; cool down 1 minute. Vision Spectrum- Tempest’s LED-like eye isn’t just for show; each row allows him to see in a different spectrum of vision. When all three rows are active, the vision is normal; when only the top-most row is exposed, he sees in infra-red; when the middle-most row is exposed, he sees in an electromagnetic spectrum; when the bottom-most row is exposed, he sees in a night-vision mode; when both the top and bottom rows are exposed, he sees in an X-ray type of spectrum. These can be engaged and disengaged at will. Propulsion Systems- Tempest has antigravity devices in his feet and lower back that allow him to repel off of the ground and either hover up to 35 meters off of the ground, or allow him to jump over five times his normal distance. Also, located in each back-fin, Tempest has three compact boosters that can propel him forward in short bursts, or allow him to hover about in the air with excellent maneuverability. Alternatively, the fins can extend outward a bit, revealing more boosters that allow tempest to fly up to speeds of Mach 3. The jets have nigh-unlimited usage. Strengths/Weaknesses: Reflexes- In order to make up for his average steel coating, Tempest has been given high hydraulic reflexes. He moves twice as fast as the average kaiju, and is agile enough to dodge a large cluster of homing missiles (not all of them, mind you). Electricity & Ice- Tempest is rather vulnerable to these two types of attacks, as electricity may fry his circuits after a few good hits, and ice causes his joints to freeze over temporarily. Weak Plating- Unlike most mecha, Tempest isn’t very durable. Sure, he has steel plating, but most kaiju can break through that with ease, exposing his joints and circuitry with a few strong hits. Physical Description: A humanoid mecha with a hunched stature and lithe build starts it off. His upper body is shaped much like a triangular prism, with the flat side aiming upwards, and the chest-plating all jutting upwards into a single, flattened point aimed outwards. His shoulders are little more than spheres with twin triangular plates jutting out from their tops and sweeping out to the side roughly 10 meters. On each shoulder is a thick octagonal prism, though the left one ends in a satellite-shaped dish with angular edges and what appears to be a hollow spike in its center; the right shoulder ending in six narrow gun barrels that can rotate around a central point. The forearms each have a large, elongated, triangular plate covering them, with the farthest points aiming at the hands, while the shins have diamond-shaped plates that split at the ends to allow movement for the feet. Tempest’s head resembles a bullet with a flatted bottom, and the point curves downwards slightly. A single visor-like eye that consists of three rows of small, orange-glowing dots, with a patch of brighter light acknowledging the location of the ‘pupil’. His feet end in three wide claws; two in front and one in the back, while the left arm ends in a wicked clawed hand, bearing three fingers while the forearm has a small ‘pack’ jutting out of the triangular plate, with two flamethrower barrels poking out forward. The right hand is nothing more than a wide, 20-meter long blade with a thin line running down it’s center, width-wise. Tempest’s back bears six thin ‘fins’ on his back, arrayed in a hexagonal formation. Each fin bulges out at the end, revealing the main boosters used by the mecha. The mech’s coloration is mainly black, with the larger plates (chest, forearms, shins, shoulders, etc) being a metallic crimson. The joints are a chrome coloration. Personality Description: Omega, Tempest’s AI, is a cold, calculating entity with a strong distaste for organic life. He finds them useless, and as such, won’t hesitate to wipe them out, whether kaiju or human forces. He may occasionally try to reason with an opponent if he deems it necessary, or he may taunt them spitefully before launching an attack. Fighting Style: Tempest prefers to go into a fight by studying his opponent first, then unleashing with a barrage of projectile attacks, mostly with his shoulder-mounted weaponry. When he deems them ‘tenderized’, he moves in and hacks his opponent apart with the Tempest Blade before moving back out and finishing with his flamethrowers and a few tesla bolts. He always uses the surrounding terrain to his advantage, and is rather brutal in melee fights, usually going for weak points, limbs, organs, etc. If it means losing a limb or a weapon, Tempest will stop at nothing to win a fight. Origin/History: To further combat the new, ever-growing threat of kaiju, the nations of the world (or most, anyway) had put aside their differences to take care of this threat, forming the Global Kaiju Counterattack Force. Contributing their greatest state-of-the-art military technology, the various countries worked together to produce something not even the so-called ‘defender of Earth’ Bahamut could stand against: The RK-273 Anti-Kaiju Assault Mecha, or ‘Tempest’. Using super-advanced hydraulics, weapon systems, and targeting arrays, the mech seemed to be the world’s greatest chance at hope. However, the idea of having several humans piloting the mech became too hazardous to use, what with the mech’s energy source waste and the fact they’d be internally pasted if the mech moved at speeds exceeding 300 mph. So, using what little budget the GKCF had, they purchased an old AI by the name of Omega, who was originally used to assist military pilots in handling new vehicles. After a few modifications, they installed the AI into the mecha, and just in time, for Daraku had re-appeared after his ten-month disappearance. The mech was launched, and Tempest had managed to slaughter his opponent rather brutally. So, the mech was ordered to return to base. There was no response from the AI. The GKCF ordered him several more times, but the only response they got was a mocking laugh. Grudgingly, Tempest returned to base for repairs as Omega considered the mecha’s massive combat capability, and began to formulate a plan. A week passed, and the worst kaiju the planet had ever faced surfaced: Gaia. After observing Bahamut fall by her hands, the GKFC ordered out Tempest to dispatch the earthly amalgamation, eventually becoming overpowered by the elemental. To the world’s surprise, the insect Daraku had arrived to the fight! The alien distracted Gaia long enough for Tempest to get back on his feet, allowing both to fight side-by-side, just this once. Both fought well, but were eventually destroyed by the Earth Mother, and just as it seemed all human life would be ended, a familiar saurian arrived to finish the fight his two ‘allies’ had started. Bahamut. Sample Battle Scene: The shining obsidian mecha stepped into view from behind a skyscraper, his ‘pupil’ sweeping from side to side as it searched for its target. A mechanical shriek answered his question as a cluster of tiny red beams blew through the building next to him, heralding the arrival of Gigan. Tempest stepped out from behind his cover, and the mecha assumed a defensive stance as the Xillian cyborg slid his scythes against each other, sending sparks flying. Before the alien could attack, however, the gattling-gun on Tempest’s right shoulder clicked into life, unleashing a barrage of pellet-shaped red bursts of energy, each plowing into Gigan’s exterior, and after a few seconds, began punching into his torso. The alien shrieked in pain before rushing forward, his buzz saw activating as he let out an angry cry. Tempest’s left shoulder cannon hummed into life before unleashing a blast of sonic waves, visible as a surge of ‘wavy air’ that impacted against Gigan, literally shattering the biomechanical flesh that covered his torso. A blast of blood erupted forth from the cyborg’s abdomen, making him stumble backwards and into a building. “Target incapacitated.” The mecha droned over GKFC war-room intercom. Gigan hissed, stumbling forward as he swept his scythes at Tempest. One of the blades managed to puncture Tempest’s abdomen after a good shove, but the other was deflected by Tempest’s blade-arm. The mecha glanced at the scythe lodged in its stomach, and replied by impaling Gigan with his own blade. The Xillian weapon shrieked, blood oozing out of the side of his mouth before another humming sound caught his attention. Thousands of volts of electricity were suddenly pumped into the alien, frying him on the inside and short-circuiting his mechanical parts. Tempest shoved the hybrid off as the panels n his chest opened, revealing several tubes beneath. A flurry of missiles launched out, exploding against Gigan’s front and sending what little flesh was left flying through the air. Gigan roared in pain before firing off another Cluster Ray, the needle-like blasts rending open the exposed plating to reveal circuitry. “Miserable freak! I’ll rip you apart for that!” The mecha boomed. A strong punch slammed into Gigan’s jaw, before said fist pulled back as the two barrels mounted on its wrist unleashed twin sprays of searing blue flame, weakening the cyborg’s defenses further. The Xillian alien had had enough, and jumped backwards as his organic engines came to life. He bounded into the air, his back-fins spreading out to catch the air currents as he began to flee the scene. Sadly, this didn’t go over well with Tempest. The six fins on the mech’s back slid outward, and over a dozen jets flared into life as Tempest‘s shoulder-weapons slid onto his back once more. Tempest took to the air after Gigan as his blade-arm split open, revealing a sort of spike within, which then began to charge with electricity. Gigan glanced over his shoulder and released his final shriek as a bolt of lightning slammed into his back, frying what circuitry was left within his lithe form and causing him to erupt violently, scattering burnt flesh and metal over the area. Tempest’s eye-light flickered as he gave the area one last scan, then turned around and rushed back to his GKFC military hangar for much-needed repairs. |
