APEX-363

is a Predator-class mecha taking inspiration from an extinct fauna, The perfected, twisted version of PROJECT's crossbreed super-weapon program. Released to aid the megacorporation in its fight against the FN3B.29ASN virus, His seemingly endless lust for killing is useful for now... though his claims that he can "see beyond the soul" is downright disturbing.
363 is a designation that left PROJECT's engineers scratching their heads, as they considered him a successful prototype, and not a combat refined, obedient hybrid weapon of destruction.
== Biography ==
=== Background ===
He is a terrifying, rage-fuelled reptilian beast being from the scorched deserts of Masada. Once, he was his empire's most esteemed warrior, leading the nation's armies to countless victories. However, after his empire's fall, He was entombed beneath the sands, and slowly, as the world turned and changed, he succumbed to insanity. Now free once more, he is utterly consumed with finding and killing his brother, Anubis, who he blames, in his madness, for the centuries he spent in darkness.
=== Creation ===
APEX-363 was the codename of a reptilian beast abducted by PROJECT and severely restrained due to numerous escape attempts in order to transform him into their own crossbreed hybrid mecha. According to legend, the beast was an intelligent, humanoid crocodile with a voracious appetite for endless bloodshed against all foes who dared to cross his path, and leaves in a secret, powerful desert nation that is unknown to the entirety of the typical nevian population. 
However, he was able to witness his rival; Anubis that was transformed into a mecha before him.
=== PROJECT-G/NEX War ===
Reports of CHROME FANG were exacerbated when APEX-363 joined the acts of committing heinous genocides throughout the Aryaine Kingdom. As a result, Muldoon Lundgren orders the use of lethal force to detain both mechas, with limited success. He typically kills all containment units with unrelenting brutality after losing his temper during various capture attempts against him.
However, he showed loyalty to SHADOW and LILIAN-395.
==== A Call to Arms ====
===== PROGRAM FURY: Virus Repellant =====
APEX-363 attempts to eliminate the digital virus known as the FN3B.29ASN after learning about a movement that has demonstrated defiance against the tyrannical megacorporation. He also discovered its connection to ANNIHILATOR, a mecha so powerful that it is more equivalent to a sentient being. On the verge of accomplishing his mission, he witnessed the virus entering a huge body and attacked him with a PHALANX-ECT mecha, which was later destroyed after he defeated it and its henchmen. After a while, he becomes concerned about the inexplicable deaths of PROJECT personnel across the country, and he suspects the nightrider.
===== A Nightrider: Hero of the Dark - Savage Predator =====
APEX-363 has exploited his swimming ability to travel the country and commit a major slaughter, news reports of skinned and disfigured victims are found all around Rutherland. He has a simple plan: combat the fabled nightrider, PSYLOCKE-832; intending to "look" beyond her soul as he brags about ripping her into pieces if given the chance. COALESCENCE has taken note of his unnatural, savage killings, which Sylas Clement wanted to investigate, but they instead delegated the task to the nightrider, knowing that she is the only one that can survive her onslaught. After hearing that she has killed all the fifteen executives of PROJECT, he concluded that her death was the only solution to weaken the security firm alongside their vendetta against the megacorporation.
In her last ride as the nightrider, he managed to intercept her position as he surprisingly outsmarted her, bursting through a wall and proceeds to seemingly destroy her DARK RUNNER bike and throws her to the ground, which she simply remedied by perfectly landing. APEX-363 reveals to the nightrider that he is responsible for the disgusting genocide that he has inflicted upon the Ruthian population. She simply shrugs, knowing that he is a savage monster that kills for pleasure. Demanding a close-up "personal" fight, she pulls out her glaive and a fight is underway; Which didn't go well for him, not expecting her superior combat skills that ends up causing his defeat, and the latter even ripping out one of his tooth using her blade of the glaive.
==== Rampancy ====
===== Prelude: Unbridled Wrath =====
The voracious Apex Predator went online, again after seemingly going rogue. Having forgotten his loss against PSYLOCKE-832, he quickly torn off his restraints and killed everyone inside his hangar, through a fit of unbridled rage that left destruction in his path. The megacorporation has sent an army of containment units in an effort to capture and dissect him to retrofit his parts for alternative purposes. Unfortunately, he went off the grid as he continued to await for the right time to come, having changed his objective from killing anything in his path, to hunting the enemy rebellion that he should've had done prior.
He burrows into the darkness and then beneath the dirt to murder his victims. And when he thinks about it, he has the energy to fight full on and demolish everything in his way. It was time for him to unleash his pinnacle supremacy over the adversary when he spotted the appropriate target: SWIFT BLAST. APEX-363 then released his terror by destroying the stinger capture implants and chasing her, even driving into a skyscraper to pursue not only her, but two G/NEX warriors. His HUD identifies the targets: EION-013, HAYABUSA-096.
His carnage grew worse, even comparable to that of CHROME FANG, inflicting civilian deaths and collateral damage. EION-013 has a hard time against him, whilst HAYABUSA-096 and SWIFT BLAST are doing their best to hold him off at all costs. Whenever Eion attempts to save any innocent lives, he quickly charges up to him, only for Zelina to distract him; But it only activated his rage and the three got nearly killed.
This unfortunately allowed ASHE-159, much to his horror, to shoot him in his unexposed head that sent him to a grumbling, humiliating retreat.
=====Clash of the Titans=====
APEX-363 stole various parts from hangars to repair himself and learned that ANNIHILATOR was ordered not to desert his post in Roji during the events of an ongoing incident on Evalka. As a result, he continued to serve as the brutal guardian of the country. His precise enforcement of corporate rule has been nothing short of exemplary, making him the only Titan-class mecha capable of demonstrating great leadership and tactical ability in a situation. However, he senses that there is a mecha roaming the city unnoticed by any personnel, with neither Muldoon Lundgren nor the elusive SHADOW are aware of its location. He comes to the conclusion that it could be a rogue design.
He was correct. ANNIHILATOR immediately recognises it as APEX-363, a PROJECT hybrid mecha of a distinct class known as "Predator-class." As the latter meets him, the Predator mecha gains momentum swiftly by running and leaping into the air, readying his blade in the process. ANNIHILATOR immediately counters, overcomes him, and grabs its throat with his right hand, questioning his loyalties and design. APEX-363 refuses to cooperate, prompting him to confine him in a massive cage, but he easily escapes and a brawl follows. ANNIHILATOR, on the other hand, easily disables his systems and beheads him with bare hands while crushing the external helmet with the hammer.
===Death===
His quick death was simply covered by PROJECT. His entire body was examined for possible reuses as the megacorporation has no future plans for APEX-363 regarding his design, allowing them to destroy his design and expertly dismantle all of his components to be used in various applications such as armour, weapons, electronics, and cybernetics.
His death has took place in Goss, Daitoshi. How horrible.
==Personality==
APEX-363 is well-known for his ruthless and ferocious disposition, ruthlessly slaughtering opponents half his size or enforcing the megacorporation's war crimes. APEX, also known as "PROJECT's aggressive machine," has an unquenchable bloodlust that he expresses through acts of severe brutality. He is exceedingly truculent and has no fear of acting on it because no one dares to stop him. One of the few persons he has ever showed any devotion or respect toward are the primary members of PROJECT; when not actively obeying their orders, he typically acts on his own will, even showing minimal respect toward ANNIHILATOR when he sought to defy him.
He is also loyal to SHADOW and LILIAN-395, as the two have been witnessing his experiments performed on him to transform him into a hybrid. His extremely violent and calculated personality is due to his past.
==Abilities==
APEX-363 was created by transforming a large reptile beast into a mecha with its own class, the Predator-class mecha, as the megacorporation has secretly a funded a crossbreed mecha program, approved by an unknown executive. As a result, he is the apex predator among all apex predators, especially in the megacorporation. The ultimate, hybrid murdering unit to ever be released from PROJECT's labs, serving as an amalgamation of beast and machine.
===Technological Capabilities===
*FURY: He build up rage in every successful attack, and the next strike will deal haemorrhage, this allows him to secure every kill that happens throughout his daily carnage in his path.
*CLEAVE: He spins his weapon in a circular motion, cleaving anything caught in the blade. As a result, he uses it as an offensive attack, which can easily overwhelm his opponents and slice them to several pieces in the process, which also proves effective against armoured vehicles and even some tanks.
*APEX PREDATOR: Upon activation, it gives him 200% additional speed and agility, surpassing Meviksa Predators. He notably used this ability to fight PSYLOCKE-832, allowing him to match her natural speed and agility with ease, until the effects of this ability have worn out.
* GAREN: He charges forward, and slices the target with his blade. this can stun his enemy that allows him to follow up with vicious attacks in order to gain the upper hand.
*CORPORATE DOMINUS: He activates a shield round him, while his durability, speed and agility is increased by 400%. In this state, he is immune to any immobilising traps like entrapment fields, barriers and even holographic cages, but that still exposes him to certain death.
