REDEEMER-865

, formerly known as BISHOP-805; Is reborn after his consciousness or spectral form was trapped in the Digital Realm. He now aims to destroy ANNIHILATOR and finally end the megacorporation once and for all as a result of his newfound existence after being revived with a physical body.
He is the previous leader of the ANTI-SERVER, his own rebel force founded to oppose the rule of ANNIHILATOR in the cursed dimension. Having set the stage for the final fight of the forgotten era, victory will be impossible to achieve without him and PSYLOCKE-832's intervention. After the war, he opted to retire and live a quiet life, most of his warriors went their separate ways, and the others have chosen to remain in the realm to respect their leader.
Fortunately, he is succeeded by an unlikely warrior: Amelie-091; Taking on his role as their leader and seemingly the perfect choice to become his successor.
== Biography ==
=== Origin ===
Despite the fact that he died with his head scorched as a result of the Darklord, no one knows what happened to his consciousness, which somehow remained intact despite the fact that his body was cremated in the Garden of Eden cemetery in the Panamoan Republic. Apparently, many people, including Michael Nexima and Rachelle Palmer, believed he was dead. Turns out he was able to witness ANNIHILATOR grasping his spectral form in his bare hands as his consciousness was separated from his original body; he attempted to fight him but was killed again, resulting in his banishment in the Digital Realm, and subjected to labour, or suffer from enslavement.
=== Life in a different, Dimension? ===
Due to his banishment, he was reborn his entire time in the dimension finding ways to escape, with minimal success, since time in the Digital Realm is measured in cycles, REDEEMER-865 has essentially spent nearly 500 years in cyberspace doing everything to escape. He has repeatedly defied ANNIHILATOR's authority in the simulated world with that length of time by fighting back, developing his own armoury, establishing a contact to OLIVEIRI-709, and utilising every bit of his skills to live in the realm, knowing that dying within it would essentially delete him from existence and prohibit any revival efforts.
As a result, he was able to establish a host body, right after connecting a signal between the Digital Realm and the physical world. To elaborate, he has discovered that Michael and his wife, Rachelle; That they are setting up a resuscitation chamber, and his physical body is ready for his revival, which can allow his digital form to merge with the real one to return the outside world if they activated the machine. Notably, OLIVEIRI-709 does not want him to leave the dimension, thanking him for the motivation of rebuilding her memories.
Of course, he desired to return to the physical world in order to settle his score against the tyrant's megacorporation. It is apparent that he is well-versed in the PROJECT-G/NEX War. Because he is the lone hero in cyberspace, he is revered as the "GUARDIAN," something ANNIHILATOR did not take lightly given that REDEEMER-865 had created his own rebellion known as the "ANTI-SERVER" to oppose the tyrannical mecha's authority within the dimension itself.
The ANTI-SERVER is a rebellion formed by to resist the tyrant's order. All of them have powers or natural combat abilities, as he singlehandedly trained them all, believing that fighting the overlord will only result to a victory if they gave their all, or even sacrifice themselves entirely, to end him for good. He also learned to open portals which allows anyone to travel between the Digital Realm and the Physical World. However, he kept it as a secret, wanting to do things the hard way.
=== Grand Return ===
Michael Nexima triggers the Resuscitation Chamber in the NRC tower, allowing REDEEMER-865 to leave the hellish cyberspace forever and return to Nexonia Prime's exterior plane. Because his rebellion held him in high regard, they opposed his planned departure; knowing that he could not leave the enslaved rebels within cyberspace, he devised a plan: return to the physical world and bring the rebels with him, concluding that everyone of them deserves freedom and experience the physical world, knowing that the rebels grew up in the realm.
He saw PSYLOCKE-832 looking up in the sky, and fading away. Her arms quickly dropped to the floor; However, she was timely saved by the rebels by injecting her with a Fujiwara Nanostimulant to completely bring her back to life. As the bright beam of light in the NRC tower blinds everyone, PROJECT divides their remaining Command Line forces into the G/NEX rebels in Rutherland, and in the Panamoan Republic; Apparently disturbed by the beam of light emitted far away. An amnesiac REDEEMER-865 emerges from the beacon heroically and quickly descended from the sky, landing just outside Mount Olympus. Knowing that he has spent more than enough time to rebuild his memory and newfound knowledge on the megacorporation, he quickly travels around the country; Ending up getting witnessed by RUBICORE forces. Much to his chagrin, his wife is found wounded in Rutherland.
The rebels quickly defended PSYLOCKE-832's position, until they were overrun by the last Mecha cavalry in their position. To make matters worse, they have sent a PHALANX-ECT mecha, effectively turning the fight in Rutherland into a one-sided slaughter. However, the cavalry disappears after someone fired a large plasma spherical explosive, which was no other than his intervention. He has brought his own rebellion to efficiently cleanse Rutherland, knowing that COALESCENCE is left in ruins after the invasion; She quickly runs to him while limping, pins him to the wall, but he counters by doing the same, and the two proceed to recognise each other.
The G/NEX rebels now wonder who's the mysterious hero in such armour with impressive technology. SCYLLA-028 quickly tells the truth as the couple had an intimate moment after REDEEMER-865 has managed to completely restore his memory. PSYLOCKE-832 bids the rebels a farewell as the power couple departs from the country for some reason, likely to plan their way of saving the planet, yet again. The Rebels are left in awaiting, leaving them questions about the obsidian assassin's lover. However, he concludes that ANNIHILATOR must've banished the rebels into the cyberspace.
As the couple had reunited, they had intercourse to prove he isn't a holographic figure anymore from the Digital Realm, and quickly focus on their plan to save the planet. The rebels on the other hand, are banished into the cyberspace; No room to escape and they are forced into a brutal duel against ANNIHILATOR himself. However, he does not want to return to the dimension ever again, so he wishes his wife a good luck, as she later joins the rebels in the Digital Realm to fight their most powerful opponent to date.
=== Bleeding Edge: Ultimatum ===
==== One Last Trip ====
In their downtime, he was satisfied in completing his goal of regaining his memories, thanks to his wife, allowing him to effectively reminisce about their love history, knowing that their unconditional, unstoppable love could be the key to overcoming ANNIHILATOR if they ever faced him again. The stoic spouse proves to have known all of the mecha overlord's deceptions and tactics that made him an unstoppable ruler of a dimension apart from the physical world. She even acknowledges that the rebels were damaging to her goal of resurrecting him, to which he just reassures her that they'll cut them off after the aftermath is done, knowing that the evil overlord is fighting the remaining G/NEX rebels in the realm.
He had lectured her about PROJECT ANNIHILATOR, which was a little complicated for her to take in, but she understood everything, knowing that her wife would not be returning to cyberspace, with the latter admitting that he despised the place with all his heart, but he wanted his own rebels to finish the fight against him, and kill the overlord, which he motivated her to settle the score. After that, he sets her to finally defeat the mecha overlord. Meanwhile, he meets his rebels at their home and discusses the present situation, explaining that they now have physical bodies and can experience life in the world, which is significantly different from the dismal dimension, which earned a division from the group, allowing him to balance the amount of people living in the world, and those who seek to return again after preparation.
==== GUARDIAN v ANNIHILATOR ====
He has commanded his last batch of ANTI-SERVER members who have decided to join him, but the rebels of the G/NEX; Have discovered this, which he immediately incorporates, and he telekinetically opens a gateway as they all launch themselves into the battlefield of the Digital Realm. As he literally brought an army, they bombarded the dictator with heavy firepower, bringing all manner of guns, blades, and explosives to aid the warriors. However, the tyrant flees after killing a large number of rebels on his own, knowing that they have all learned the location of SERVER. Without further ado, he simply orders everyone to pursue him through any means, such as using native aircraft in the dimension to lessen the chase.
In the fight for the SERVER, REDEEMER-865's giant holographic form trades blows with PROJECT ANNIHILATOR as the surviving G/NEX warriors follow the lead of his wife as they seek to destroy the SERVER, the realm's core, knowing that its destruction will ensure the tyrant's demise and save every hero in the same dimension. OLIVEIRI-709, who appears hobbling and with a torn right arm, promises the group that she will restore everything, earning the adoration of EION-013. The gunslinger actually survived a hit from the tyrant, as he is luckily confined in debris rather than decimated by brute force, which 865 saw BRIENNE-218 free him. As they all make it to the core, 865 noticed that ANNIHILATOR has brought the still-alive soldiers of PROJECT: INTERCEPTOR-409 and Gray Wolf. Much to their dissatisfaction, The tyrant uses the opportunity to create henchmen modelled after SHADOW himself, dozens of them.
As a result, after seeing his comrades struggle against the tyrant's holographic army, he bulldozes the clones and cleaves them into pieces with his axe, then suggests everyone hop onto his TAGGART form as he matches ANNIHILATOR in combat, but accidentally drops the rebels to the ground, forcing SCYLLA-028 to throw her scythe into the SERVER's gate, which triggered but luckily disarmed the security systems His wife, on the other hand, manages to blind his right eye by throwing her glaive like a spear and retrieving it, allowing everyone to rush towards Sector 07, the main section and the location of SERVER's power core.
Safe to say, he is the only one among everyone to actually hold his own against the tyrant in a prolonged confrontation.
==== Orchestrator of the Tyrant's Defeat ====
As the overlord's never-ending army encircles his allies, they are forced to take a defensive position while the others are torn apart by the clones or shot by the armed minions. The tyrant declares that destroying the SERVER will result in the ruin of the realm and everyone within it, but they see through his deception. REDEEMER-865 reminds him of the agony he went through as a spectral in the same domain. The latter recognises it, but shrugs as though he didn't want him alive. The latter acknowledges it, but shrugs as he wanted him dead. As he used his axe to counter his hammer's strikes, PSYLOCKE-832 permanently blinds him with another stab his left eye, which he took the opportunity to spear him and shoulder tackle up into the very core of the SERVER, destroying it once and for all.
They have finally defeated him for good. ANNIHILATOR could have simply won a long, terrible fight against the G/NEX if it hadn't been for his and PSYLOCKE-832's intervention. He acknowledges that it was the best feeling ever, and they all shake hands with OLIVEIRI-709, understanding that their success in the domain would not be possible without her knowledge and abilities in the domain. However, he knows she will remain at the location, ready to face forever, so he wished her well and even gave her a hug. After that, he grasped PSYLOCKE-832's hand as they all entered the Portal, and exited the horrible domain for good.
== Finale: Took a Heavy Burden ==
:"I'm too old for all of these. I had more than enough lifetimes to be celebrated as a war hero. Enough with all these heroics, Too old for these. Perhaps politics can be a true change of pace."
Knowing all of these are over, he hold her hand and later her waist as they return to their secret home in the Panamoan Republic. They have simply enjoyed a simple life, free of all kinds of work or disruption, as they return to the Physical World, but they intend to take over galactic politics someday. The two stated that being a thousand years old and their constant existence of being a soldier, mercenary, or assassin in endless wars are progressively tiring them out, which explains their plan to enter politics eventually. The two admitted that being a thousand years old and their constant existence of being a soldier, mercenary, or assassin in endless wars throughout the planet and even the galaxy are progressively tiring them out, which explains their intention to enter politics eventually.
It has been known that they attended Ashe's funeral, but the G/NEX are unable to see them. They both show no interest on helping the newer generation of heroes. Moreover, it turns out that Rachelle has trained someone in marksmanship very well, which is allegedly Ashe's protégé. As he had expected, the downfall of PROJECT has spanned a new war, and new enemies. As the two kept their word and decided not to interfere anymore, Wolfgang knew that Michael can make it up for their inactivity, ad they no longer want to be heroes.
And that was the last of Wolfgang Bale's impact on the planet. Nothing has been heard of about him again, except for the fact that he traversed outside to the galaxy, seeking to establish a political career.
== Personality ==
REDEEMER-865 is an emotionless hero respected for his dedication and fortitude, during his lifelong stay in the cyberspace, a dimension that he shown great hatred of. Numerous Digital Realm slaves concur that he was the renowned BISHOP-805, and that he constantly learns new things every time, showing that he had a more educational attitude to things than ever before, most notably when he progressively regains his memories before gently returning to the real world. The place also discovered his potential for leadership, allowing him to build a rebellion in the place to oppose ANNIHILATOR. This allowed him to embrace the qualities of being a leader.
Knowing that ANNIHILATOR has made his existence in cyberspace a living hell, REDEEMER has spent his whole time fighting back against him, and his skill has advanced to the point that he never dies in any of their duels in the environment. However, he is unable to express his rage or indignation at the enormous mecha that has devastated his digital existence, so he battles him with a cruel, cold-blooded attitude. When the war has been over and the overlord has been gone forever, chose to live a simple, normal life with PSYLOCKE-832.
Nicholas has chosen to retire (finally) as a warrior, indicating that he had outlived his welcome on the planet. He and Rachelle strove to live in a simple lifestyle, taking a permanent break from all the wars and conflicts that have occurred since his ascension as a soldier. While the rest of the planet was disappointed since they respected and admired his constant heroic exploits, Nicholas thought that it was more than enough for him to finally retire.

=== Powers===
*Nevian Alpha Physiology: Unlike most KNIGHT-SOLDIER IV soldiers, lacks any cybernetic and genetic enhancements owing to his superior physiology, that grants him his trademark amalgamation of superhuman strength, durability, speed, agility and accelerated healing factor that effectively makes him a naturally super powered individuals to ever grace on the battlefield. 
**Superhuman Strength: He possessed an enormous level of strength, owing to his size and muscle mass. To make it worse, he combines his raw power with combat skills, allowing him to effortlessly kill his opponents with a mixture of brute force and technique, to a perfect effect. However, he is not the strongest, but close.
**Superhuman Durability: His absurdly large size and bulk allows him to take grievous amounts of punishment, proving his durability. He notably takes blows from stronger foes with relative ease, and his stubborn habit to "snap back" his joints in place whenever they get dislocated through Hand-to-hand combat.
**Superhuman Speed: is insanely fast for a man of his size. He can run up to fifty miles per hour without the armour, and even further enhanced with his Mark VII armour by bringing his top speed at a whopping seventy nine miles per hour!
**Superhuman Agility: His agility is akin but far superior to Olympic athletes, which is impressive. He is able to jump very high and pass through narrow openings with ease despite his body size.
**Healing Factor: His healing ability is extremely impressive. He can reattach torn limbs within seconds or regenerate amputated limbs within five seconds. Notably, stomach wounds don't bother him and assaults in his heart and throat have proved effective, but still brought him back to life after a Colossian has demonstrated it.
