PROJECT OBELISK

**PROJECT OBELISK** is Titan-class mecha and a proud symbol of the megacorporation's power. Formerly a massive stone entity from Colossus Prime and after his abduction he was built to function as a combat mech and a battering ram, specialised to penetrate fortifications with his strength, durability, and a charging attack that can easily break all known defences in his path.

In *Dawn of Era: An Uprising*, it has been revealed that OBELISK has multiple copies of himself, that caused terror in Valenthia until their factory was destroyed, trapping the duplicates into destruction, forever.

## Biography

### Monolith Titan

**Varush'Muvadam**, a massive stone creature of the species Monolithian, struggles to impose blessed order on the tyrannical planet Colossus Prime. Born as a golem to serve the Darklord, he used his incredible godlike strength to maintain and protect his species, but he eventually failed. He is the sole survivor of the destruction that followed, and he now has to deal with Colossus Prime's brutality and their desire for galactic dominance, all while trying to find a new role worthy of the last of his kind.

Varush'Muvadam was incapacitated by the Darklord and was sent to Nexonia Prime under the demand of PROJECT corporation moments before his death. He is transformed into a massive killing machine designed to make tanks obsolete in battle. As well as counter opponents with aerial superiority.

### A Call to Arms

Now known as **PROJECT OBELISK**, and he is the corporation's weapon of mass destruction; he has low intelligence but apparently having maximum size and strength, making him an unstoppable force in combat. He can drill underground and in normal areas to increase his raw power, thanks to his ability to shift his body parts into a drill mode, which can be used to burrow underground, or destroy walls with ease. This allows him to be an effective anti-defensive unit of the Command Line.

After infiltrating the SUPREME headquarters in Brimstone, Freya, SCYLLA-028 confirmed his presence. As a result; PROJECT corporation did everything in their power to keep OBELISK's development or existence from being exposed to the media and receiving *widespread condemnation*. Despite his inactivity throughout A Call to Arms, he is known to take part in a series of classified, brutal combat experiments.

### PROJECT-G/NEX War

OBELISK is the signature Titan-class mecha of PROJECT corporation. Equipped with the heaviest armour to absorb the heaviest artillery, immense superhuman strength to crush any opposition, and the ability to drill into surfaces thanks to his drill mode.

#### Rampancy: DESTRUCTION

The OBELISK was finally launched in 3005 as a result of Muldoon Lundgren suggesting to test his raw power on the battlefield, which earns the quick approval of his designers. In order to demonstrate his raw power, they have intended to deploy him onto the city of Technovolk. That city was no longer deemed valuable by the mega corporation, and as a result, He was give one simple directive: Destroy the entire city and anyone crossing his path, except for present allies in combat.

It didn't take long for the massive machine to recognise his directives, as he was being loaded upon an aircraft, and will be dropped to the city of Technovolk shortly. Muldoon expects his demonstration should be quick and should only take a few days, not wanting any interruptions coming along the way. While in the city, he quickly showed his true strength, pummelling objects all around his path, and using his drill mode to puncture, destroy numerous buildings without difficulty. As expected, it attracted attention of the remaining Evalkan Ground Forces in the city.

Following that, he comes across Evalkan soldiers stationed on the city. He wasted no time destroying them all, until the G/NEX resistance group intervened. He was quickly attacked, but he sustained minimal to no damage at all due to his immense size and nigh-impenetrable armour. Seeing them as nothing more but a nuisance, he ignores them, until FIONA-384 made efforts to attack him by slicing his joints, with moderate effect. Before he can crush her with his brute strength, PROJECT TAGGART, another Titan-class mecha, has joined the carnage and proceeds to spear OBELISK through a building. OBELISK is confused as to why TAGGART attacked him, which he concluded that his programming must be rogue or the G/NEX resistance has rewritten his memory. However, seeing the commotion from a drone video feed, Muldoon Lundgren was quickly triggered as to why their Titan mechas are sizing up each other. OBELISK refused his orders and simply wanted to fight, to demonstrate his combat effectiveness.

OBELISK put up a valuable fight, but he was later knocked out. As a result, SHADOW has quickly came in; Disabling him by shooting an XREP round into his power core, to the point where he questioned him of his doing, despite his lack of ability to speak, SHADOW was able to understand his message, to which he responds by stating that he is a failed design, clearly due to demonstrating immense feats of rage and destruction to anyone in his path.

#### The COALESCENCE

OBELISK was entrusted with destroying everything on the Glaz'Ian Islands during the heist of 3012. As a result of his endless feats of strength that effectively razed whatever city he comes across to rubble, he has received worldwide notice. As PROJECT is now constructing another headquarters in the country, this allowed them to effectively control the city. He requested to be a part of the theft operation but was turned down because his speciality was heavy combat, not infiltration and theft. He also inquired about the whereabouts of TAGGART, to which his superiors replied that he had been shelved and was currently decommissioned.

Upon completing his mission, he was simply asked to patrol the streets of wherever in the country, as the military presence on the land is practically non existent, due to the fact that he annihilated them. Not to mention, he learns of a place known as the Digital Realm, and quickly concludes that there maybe another Titan-class mecha in the process.

#### Going All Out

In Going All Out, OBELISK was under heavy maintenance after rejecting multiple requests, resulting to be a hindrance to the megacorporation. As a result, he failed to participate during the invasion of the Panamoan Republic by penetrating the walls of Obrinia. Due to this, his lack of presence effectively caused Command Line forces to lose the operation against the combined forces of the RUBICORE and G/NEX rebels. Not to mention, PSYLOCKE-832 was in there too. Once his repairs are finally finished, he saw SHADOW standing in front of him.

*SHADOW demands his presence on the battlefield. Urgently.*

*What was the point of waiting for OBELISK? Well. He became online.*

Upon returning online, his task was simple: Fight the Enemy. As a result, he quickly travels back to his favourite place, Technovolk and Shabana to perform indiscriminate rampages, but his stunt at Technovolk was quickly halted after sustaining damage from RUBICORE forces unleashing various amounts of firepower at him, even bombing him with missiles in order to penetrate his armour, allowing him to burrow in the ground for a tactical retreat. After that, he has been intercepting JINX-362 to kill her, seeing her as an easy prey, but he ends up getting sidelined due to fighting BRONZAMITE-625 on numerous occasions.

#### Technological Lies: Maximum Overdrive

In Technological Lies, OBELISK has been known to be on maximum overdrive; His endless rampages, demolitions and being a part of various operations allow PROJECT a fighting chance to hold off against the enemy and their alliance, knowing that the war is now on the verge of defeat. As a result, Program has established protocols for him, which is to destroy BRONZAMITE-625. As well as his most close friends, JINX-362, EQUINOX-612 and VI-516. Due to this, he quickly locates them in Heliga and quickly burrows himself to the ground in Evalka. After a few days, he had risen in the surface of Heliga, locating his four targets in close proximity, which are only miles away.

As the rebels arrive at the Heligan headquarters, they immediately unleash chaos by destroying all of the garrison's useless patrol bots, and they do their best to destroy any PROJECT forces in their path. They were successful until the megacorporation heard about the uproar and decided to activate their turrets to hunt them down. When the turrets couldn't find them, they quickly dispatched tanks and search parties to flush them out.

They were quickly discovered, prompting BRONZAMITE-625 to defend them and destroy the enemy, attracting the attention of OBELISK and he quickly barges into battle as his maintenance repairs are fully complete. He comes up with a smart tactic by digging himself to the ground, tunnelling in order to kill unsuspecting threats when he emerges from the ground. To put it to use, he himself has descended underground, whilst drilling any living target in his path, leaving no survivors in his slaughter, and when he finds the opportunity, he quickly leaps to the air and stabbed BRONZAMITE-625 with his drill, and proceeds to literally tear him apart into pieces.

JINX-362 decides to confront him by herself, which earns his laughter as her attacks do no damage at all, even her own high caliber gatling gun has no effect on shooting his joints, prompting VI-516 and EQUINOX-612 to fight him as well. However, JINX-362 demands to use the MK6 Titan tank, to which ended up being unsuccessful as OBELISK destroyed the tank after JINX-362 has shot him with its cannon, dealing moderate amounts of damage.

### Destruction: End of the Line

OBELISK quickly dispatches both VI-516 and EQUINOX-612 by casually hurling them against a building, viewing them as inept foes. He shifts his focus to JINX-362, knowing she has little to no chance of defeating him in combat. The latter fires back, but he merely throws her guns away and takes her up with one hand. She is unable to escape because to his godlike strength, despite her use of grenades and any trickery she may devise while he has her in his clutches. He only laughs as he tightens his grasp on her.; Which causes her cybernetics to suffer from the pressure until she suffered multiple fractures, but she has outsmarted him through distraction as a seemingly reanimated PROJECT TAGGART charges upon him and knocks him out of the wall.

As OBELISK is trading blows with TAGGART, JINX-362 takes advantage of their savage fighting as she picks up her rocket launcher and loads a superheated plasma warhead inside it, intending to avenge BRONZAMITE-625. He sees this, but TAGGART knocks him down as he uses his axe to pin him to the ground, until what the two machines saw together is a projectile launching at both of them... with its destination being TAGGART's external reactor core, knowing that he is on the verge of destruction, OBELISK attempts to shield himself with his drill form. An explosion engulfs both of them as they are now destroyed by the loose cannon herself.

*And that was an awful demise of a powerful Titan-class mecha.*

## Personality

OBELISK is a devoted machine of the PROJECT corporation. As a result, he is aggressive, rough, and protective of his allies. Unlike the other Titan-class mechas, he possesses the most sophisticated personality, which results in more favourable behavioural patterns and a more bearable level of control from his designers. However, when in conflict, he still exhibits traces of wrath and violence, which is a natural feature of his programming given that he is a force to be reckoned with in any large-scale war. Not to mention his ability to exhibit authentic humanoid emotions such as wrath, sadness, despair, and delight.

Overall, he is a machine akin to an aggressive charging bull, always eager to lunch himself headfirst of the battlefield, without giving a damn about strategy.

## Abilities

The OBELISK is meant for combat and destruction. The evil red eyes, the brooding aggression it possesses, the dark purple and grey coloring, it all comes together to paint that this mountain of a machine can and will kill you. It is so unnerving that you even question if someone is in there or if it’s just a hollow husk of a machine with one purpose in mind.

The truth is, OBELISK is a former sentient mecha.

### Technological Capabilities

* **CORPORATE GRANITE**: He projects a shield around his body in response to heavy damage, primarily when it is necessary, as it serves as a passive ability.

* **SHARD OF THE CORPORATE**: He sends a Nevium shard that quickly tracks the opponent. It cannot be destroyed by normal means, and enemies should only be dodged whenever possible.

* **THUNDERCLAP**: OBELISK Claps his fists and causes explosive damage throughout its path. It can easily destroy cars and vehicles caught in the shockwave, while living targets take lesser damage due to being an area-of-effect attack.

* **BURROWER SLAM**: He transforms into his drill mode, burrows through the ground and launches himself to the air, to stab his target with the massive cone blade.

* **UNSTOPPABLE DRILL**: He transforms into his drill mode to build speed and momentum to ram his opponent. Upon reaching the target, he bull charges them, and sends his targets airborne, or turned into shreds due to the immense force.

### Skills

* **Rampant Charge**: Once he begins to advance in a certain direction, it is virtually impossible to halt his movement. Some obstacles, such as many vehicles, blockades and even heavily fortified walls, have slowed his pace, but cannot stop him.

* **Drill Mode**: His drill mode allows him to perform tunnelling, burrowing under the ground to travel underground or to await victims from above.

* **Aggression**: PROJECT OBELISK's savagery allows him to perform brutal attacks and feats of strength, making him unstoppable.

## Trivia
