## Backstory

He was once Arcade!Erock, by others is said to have been fused by the gaming alien entity with so many endless levels and done so many plays to himself that he had grown tired of it all and destroyed all the mech robots called the automazeons that are around him in this endless futuristic world planetary alien maze arcade game. In an attempt to change his own ways on this arcade game that he mysteriously sucked into, Erock tamed and took the soul of Evil Otto itself from an old school arcade game called Berzerk as he fused his soul with evil otto itself, obtaining no longer level, but Determination.

But since then, how did Erock fused an alien entity like this as his gaming soul? Erock manages to tame him as evil otto was being controlled by a bad gaming CPU chip which causes bad haywire and a bad creator that made him this way that he didn’t wanted to do. After getting it, he had received a message from Otto who allowed him to safely use determination. He would later wake up in Arcade!Verse somewhere in the 8th Dimension world and found Polybius!Retro where he would train for several months and eventually Erock would learn of other gaming worlds that are stuck in the same loop he was and, in an attempt, to free them as he began to eradicate all the hostile game entities variants that have and will exist into game data files.

#### Bonus: The Beginning (Origin)

In the "astro date" 3200, the last survivor of an arcade alien named Erock Gensys (Arcade!Erock) lands on the planet Mazeon, where his spacecraft is immediately destroyed by faceless robots known as Automazeons, the only beings that could live on this uninhabitable planet, led by their creator, a supernatural entity known as Evil Otto. They imprison this arcade, hip-hop alienoid in a seemingly endless maze of countless rooms where even the walls are death to touch and the Automazeons alongside their leader Evil Otto are hunting him down.

## What Is Berzerk?

***Berzerk*** is a multidirectional shooter designed by Alan McNeil and released for arcades in 1980 by Stern Electronics of Chicago. Following Taito's Stratovox, it is one of the first arcade video games with speech synthesis. Berzerk places the player in a series of top-down, maze-like rooms containing armed robots. Home ports were published for the Atari 2600, Atari 5200, and Vectrex. However, there is a second one called ***Frenzy*** is a multidirectional shooter arcade video game published by Stern Electronics in 1982. It is a sequel to 1980's popular ***Berzerk***; both games were developed by Alan McNeil.

#### Evil Otto

What is this arcade alien entity? Evil Otto is once an antagonist of the arcade machine Berzerk, but since Erock tamed it, it's now back being good and uses its powers for good. Otto has a simple yellow smile on its face and black pupil eyes, it has appeared that Otto is just an arcade alien entity that taken into account that in these versions the robots are his minions, he used to show no signs of caring about their destruction whenever he kills them in the games, and additionally is described to be a mad and merciless maniac that takes joy in beating his enemies to a pulp.

In the Berzerk and Frenzy games, Otto has a very undefined personality, only chasing the player and doing nothing else that can display a real personality, beyond that permanent smile on his face. Some have theorized Evil Otto was made as some sort of Evil Knockoff of Pac-Man, due to Evil Otto and Pac-Man sharing similar designs and because Ms. Pac-Man was originally a game called Crazy Otto.

## Weapons

**The EM-Laser Pistol:** A special Atari laser gun that Berzerk!Erock carries, it is fully automatic and best utilized for medium to longer ranges. It has infinite ammo with no cooldown, meaning it can be fired indefinitely without penalty. It is a T-ENG based weapon that fires a powerful beam of positive ions. A single shot from the EM Laser can temporarily stun targets for several seconds. Additionally, the T-ENG can be used to charge each shot for increased power and a stun effect on M-sized Akrid and VS. It possesses higher overall firepower, but it consumes roughly double the amount of T-ENG to fire. This can be a very useful weapon to use in battler if used correctly, when fully charged, the entire firing cannon starts to enlarge and separates six small chargers to compensate for high energy levels. Also, the beams fired by the laser pistol are slightly less powerful than the ones fired. Repeatedly pulling the trigger makes the laser pistol fire lasers much faster. Like other handguns, it has infinite ammo. The laser pistol is much more accurate, and Berzerk!Erock doesn't need to aim down the sights to fire accurate shots or reload the weapon after firing.

## Powers

**Robotic Control:** Berzerk!Erock can control any types of robotic entities to do his bidding or fight for him as well as empathize and communicate with them as well as hijacking an enemy robot or drones.

**Technology Summoning:** Berzerk!Erock is capable of summoning mechanical or technological devices as they can come about through various means scientific, psychic, magical, robotic, etc. He is capable of performing tasks ranging from combat to defense to support depending on the overall level of technological complexity.

**Red Magic:** Berzerk!Erock has the ability to manipulate all Plasma Based Elements, and this gives significantly more capabilities for him and makes them just that much stronger, being able to mold his body however they like and create fires hotter than the regular Orange/Yellow as this level of magic is incredible.

**Yellow Magic:** The Magic Force Manipulation allows Berzerk!Erock to be able to use magic at a basic level. With the help of incantations, magic circles and runes this allows him to channel magic out of his body and then be able create a physical manifestation of his imagination, fireballs, water cannon, thunderbolt, stone bullets, gravity pull, time rewind or acceleration.

**Intangibility:** He can go through walls as he can phase them with impunity and hunt the player, characters, or enemies.

**Mental Manipulation:** Berzerk!Erock can copy, take, rearrange, or completely reset the memory, feelings and past of the person it chooses. This ability is typically used with a memory card after the memory has been removed and the object has been destroyed. In addition to this manipulation, He can cause psychological breakdowns and mental collapse by causing mental pain, make the victim relive old traumas, causing them to descend into madness or rendering them completely catatonic, via a complete mental collapse. (However, this will **NOT** work on Ghost!Drift, Sora!Drift, Raiden!Cross, Bioshock!Drift and others that have great mental power resistance.)

**Teleportation:** Berzerk!Erock allows him to warp across terrain in a matter of milliseconds, energy expenditure is dependent on distance traveled.

**Berzerk Blast:** They don't look like ordinary game blast as they look like Atari 8-Bit style with glitch effects on them as they emit red/purple light like a malfunction and when it hits you, it causes massive damage to the environment as the beams can also wipe out lower gods in seconds making in extremely powerful also, he is able to destroy structures whose size is equivalent to a countably infinite number of qualitative sizes above a universal model, usually represented in fiction by endless hierarchies of layers of existence, each succeeding one completely trivializing the previous into insignificance.

**Faulty Shards:** They are very faulty Atari 8-bit shards and when you are hit a glitch will be attached to you which will bring you suffering and only suffering (It can be removed with one click or by healing).

**Otto Ray:** He can unleash rays of all sizes from his fingertips and even the palm of his hand, these rays and their purpose can be altered and changed to suit almost any situation that may arise. For example, he can cast a ray that’s purely yellow, this ray being a far quicker method of his game code, while a purely red ray may also inflict damage and the color of the ray often determines what effect it’ll have. Though there will be the occasional chance that Berzek!Erock loses control of the ray, meaning it’ll have a completely random effect, ranging from completely healing, restoring, and increasing stats, to utter annihilation of Universes. While the Otto Rays are useful, the name they were given still stands, indicating that they’re not 100% of the time predictable.

**8-Bit Bullets:** These pixelated 8-bit bullets will obliterate any object with or without code as well as attack the code of any person directly if hit by these bullets and the damage of these bullets scale to cluster level damage.

**Madness Manipulation:** Berzerk!Erock can absorb, create, control, and manipulate madness/insanity of themselves, others or the madness energy around, whether increasing, decreasing, causing or otherwise enhancing insanity, even manifesting the emotional energy to physical level and gaining power from it.

**Chaos Manipulation:** He can create, shape and manipulate the chaotic forces in the universe, allowing them to manipulate probability or manipulate and even shatter reality. They are able to change, mutate, destroy or otherwise manipulate any matter, space/time, living beings, organizations or minds and spirits as well as containing it, so it doesn't spread and spreads only in a desired way.

**DT Burst:** This ability is a soul shattering attack that specifically targets the soul. If it hits the body however it will cause immense overgrowth of DT roots which will infest the skin and body causing massive hallucinations and hysteria to the victim. The attack mainly focuses on soul shattering and destroying a soul and placement in reality, if the attack is successful, it is a one shot and instantly kills the opponent rendering them a husk and damning them eternally to a life of nonexistence. The attack can be held in longer for a wider range extending far enough at most to the size of a small continent.

**Frenzy:** When he is in distressed or pissed off, Berzerk!Erock will then go into this mode within five minutes until he will lose his stamina until the next day, in this mode, Berzerk!Erock becomes an extremely, and usually more powerful and dangerous state of being where he becomes filled with rage and bloodlust and becoming completely devoid of rationality and sensibility. An insatiable thirst for battle, in his Frenzy mode, he will usually attack anything and everything they perceive, also going for the strongest target in his vicinity in some cases as Berzerk!Erock becomes stronger, faster, more durable etc. by bloodlust, a violent desire to maim and kill, possibly unlocking abilities related to the affinity and enhancing the existing powers.

## Transformation

### BERZERK

The Evil Otto is Berzerk!Erock arcade alien-like form, giving him near unlimited power for a period of time for 10 minutes. The Evil Otto is incredibly powerful and obliterates anything in its path, and can destroy anything it wants against hostile enemies, intruders and entities, as this gives him five abilities and powers in this transformation. Once he finally eliminates the enemies and his goal, The Evil Otto can revert him back into Berzerk!Erock basic form himself.

**Automazeon:** He can summon up to thousand or millions of armed automazeon to attack his targets or enemies and do his own will until the target has been neutralized. The automazeon killing robots can also shoot 8-Bit Beams that can one shot kill a player and turn them into pixelated cubes.

**Evil Otto:** He can summon one or five evil otto with yellow or red smiley faces, this evil smiling face will appear and start chasing the player, moving in a bouncing motion. It is able to phase through walls and cannot be killed by any means, so whenever it appears the target must run away as fast as they can. If he touches or crushes the player, they will instantly die.

**Dark 8-Bit Ray:** He can shoot out a pure dark red beam out of his palm hands which upon contact would inject a whole lot of the combined game code power causing the vessel to destabilize and die instantly or even causing them to turn into pixelated files or codes as this attack has no real charge up as it can be fired instantly.

**Eyes Of Evil Otto:** Gazing into his eyes for at least 5 seconds would send the most sane of people into a deep, deep fear that they could be paralyzed by the very sight itself. (This won't work on Ghost!Drift, Sora!Drift, Bioshock!Drift, Etc.)

**God Zap:** This is basically his finishing move, he can shoot lightning beams of game code energy out of his eyes, it destroys almost anything it comes in contact with such as people, it has been shown to collapse Universes setting very lowest intensity. At its highest intensity it can affect significant layers of the lesser universe, though he has no need to go all out since he needs the game code from the layers of the Lesser universe. It's unknown how far his Beam can reach as the strongest attack in his arsenal, he only uses it if absolutely necessary. However, there is a weak one as he can also use God Zap as a spread shot, basically a weak version of the god zap, the spread can cause major damage to several or nearby universes.
