*Obisidian* is a *Superior Commande*r in the *Elemental Army* and is best known for being part of the *Elite Shadow Ruler Recon Squad*.

## **Character Description**

Obsidian is a Superior Commander who is most known for being associated with the Shadow Ruler Recon Squad. His armor is a prototype suit that was made by *Phoenix Inc*, as a suit made for heavy combat, which is where enemies are in great amounts. This prototype suit has very advanced technology, and is the only version of this suit in existence. There are however talks about making a new model for *Obsidian.*

*Obsidian* is about 17'11" tall, making him a bit shorter than *Flame*, but definitely not short compared to other Elementals. One thing that separates Obsidian and Flame from most characters is how stoic they are. Although they are both leaders of the Recon Squad, they both remain quiet during combat unless they are required to talk. Obsidian is also known to keep all his armor on and not show his face around the Elemental Base. The only person who's seen his face was Linda, while he was cleaning the blood off his helmet. While doing this, Linda questioned him why his armor was kept in such poor looking condition. She then said, "Would it kill you to get a paint job?" He replied, "*There's no need for a paint job, it doesn't affect my armors functionality.*"

## **His Weapons**

His primary weapon is usually a shotgun, it doesn't really matter what type or what ammo it shoots, as long as it's a shotgun, he usually uses it.

For his Secondary, he uses a variety of pistols ranging from a Semi-Auto to a full Auto or even Hand-cannons, like Desert Eagles and Revolvers.

For his knives he'll either use the standard issue combat knife or a bowie knife.

When it comes to grenades, Obsidian will most likely use sticky grenades, as in his mind, they are the most effective and have the opportunity to get more kills, and devastate the front lines.
