Rampancy

**Rampancy** is the official title on the incident that caused an indiscriminate rampage that levelled the city of Technovolk. As a result of three mechas, and two of them are from PROJECT itself, giving a massive reaction from the media and people alike.

## History

### Prelude

*Main article: Unbridled Wrath*

The entire global incident was instigated by an unknown disturbance that occurred inside Brimstone, Freya; Which appears to be a savage hybrid mecha that caused extreme rampages that left collateral damage and killed numerous people. The G/NEX has sent two people to investigate, and they expect the unexpected.

### Origins

The actual origins of the incident were due to the fact that a mecha was on the loose, which shocked the globe, knowing corporate mechas are loyal to a fault. This mecha, however, is BRONZAMITE-625, one of the most advanced robots ever created, capable of emotional reactions and behaviour, making him similar to a sentient Omega. As a result, he questioned his own orders, hurt Muldoon Lundgren, and went on the run, being pursued owing to his escape.

In the year 3005, endless rumours have circulated that a massive mecha painted orange was transported by a convoy and was loaded to a headquarters in Razikstan. Onlookers have confirmed that it is exceedingly huge, most likely identical to OBELISK, of which the public was already aware. SCYLLA-028 confirms it to her allies as PROJECT TAGGART.

### On the Run: Consequences

BRONZAMITE-625 is on the run, fending off oncoming corporate troops intent on apprehending him using his strength and weaponry. When conventional methods fail. PROJECT has deployed "death teams" entrusted with annihilating him once and for all, knowing that they cloned him for military objectives; and his capacity to feel emotions has caused him to rebel against the megacorporation. However, he is unable to be reckless in his actions and causes property damage while evading his foes, even colliding with a few mecha designs in the process.

Much to his chagrin, he is responsible for the future occurrences. As a result of his escape from Brimstone, Freya, riots, killings, and experimentation have occurred. As a result, he sets off on a redemption mission to make amends and join the resistance. He has heard off a warrior known as JINX-362, whom was effectively terminated from PROJECT as a member and wiped from their database after causing tremendous havoc in Camelot, killing people and demolishing structures. Not to mention, a Reactor plant designed to power mechas were accidentally destroyed by him, plunging Technovolk's safety into dangerously low levels, as heat and destruction engulfs the city.

Following the reactor explosion, which killed two engineers and severely burned two more, he has fled after a massive emergency operation has been sent to put out the fire, stabilise the reactor, and clean up the ejected radioactive material began. During the immediate emergency response, 1784 workers were hospitalised, of which 892 exhibited symptoms of acute radiation syndrome. Among those hospitalised, 329 died within the following three months, all of whom were hospitalised for ARS. In the following 10 years, 14 more workers (9 who had been hospitalised with ARS) died of various causes mostly unrelated to radiation exposure.

As a result, he is unable to reveal himself to the injured corporate members, camouflaged as he desperately thinks of a plan to redeem himself.

### Bonds Formed

Following that, he came across JINX-362, a small, emaciated armoured individual. Because of their common experiences, the two grew closer and decided to help one another in times of need. JINX-362 also wants him to spend as much time as possible with her because her older sister, VI-516, is an active G/NEX rebel fighter. A few days later, the two are bonding by wreaking havoc and destroying PROJECT forces in Technovolk, and after that, BRONZAMITE-625 transformed into a car and took her on a road trip to the *Obsidian Mountains* to bond and relax from such a tense time in the entire incident. VI-516's request to let JINX-362 join in the G/NEX resistance was authorised after the resistance witnessed her and a mecha save Technovolk's citizens despite the city being severely damaged.

Much to her chagrin, ASHE-159 has welcomed JINX-362 into the resistance, tapping the loose cannon's shoulder and warning VI-516 to keep an eye on her younger, insane sister. They enthusiastically welcomed BRONZAMITE-625 following their previous confrontation. The celebration, however, was cut short.

### Titans, Clash.

When the powerhouse mecha, the PROJECT OBELISK was now launched into Technovolk and quickly decimated all Evalkan infantry and ground vehicles in his route. His overwhelming strength and ferocity enabled him to crush forces that persisted to oppose him. PROJECT corporation declared Technovolk an obsolete city, allowing OBELISK to enjoy the orders while joyfully destroying the city. BRONZAMITE-625 notices a rival, OBELISK, and proceeds to charge at him. This attracts OBELISK's attention, and the two fight ferociously, exchanging thundering strikes; nevertheless, BRONZAMITE-625 is quickly defeated by OBELISK's superior strength paired with his pure fury. As a result of their observation, the G/NEX resistance enters the conflict, applying enormous amounts of firepower in an attempt to stop the robotic beast, FIONA-384, SHIRO-113 and HAYABUSA-096 has made some progress on damaging OBELISK.

EION-013 famously used his RAGING CULL ultimate ability to shoot both gigantic machines, but he was assaulted and hurled away by a Meviksa Predator. As a result, he is injured, suffering a broken leg and a busted left optic. Despite the resistance's subpar but consistent firepower of damaging OBELISK, he remained unaffected... until PROJECT TAGGART broke through a tower, spearing OBELISK into the structure. As a result, the G/NEX resistance is perplexed yet intrigued by the phenomena unfolding before their eyes. SHIRO-113 believes the two huge machines' programming were compromised, whilst HAYABUSA-096 believes that the raging mecha is created to fight for the good guys. SCYLLA-028 instantly silences them with her two-month-old discovery.

TAGGART has speared OBELISK through a building, prompting the G/NEX resistance to retreat from such a ruckus, not wanting to do additional harm. They also dragged JINX-362 and BRONZAMITE-625 away from the fray, allowing the G/NEX to fight another day. The two titans collide, and fortunate news agencies employed drones to highlight the incident. As a result, Muldoon Lundgren was enraged and directed the corporation to purge certain news outlets, but to no avail. It has been presumed that COALESCENCE agents have prevented PROJECT from destroying various news outlets. OBELISK recognises him as a PROJECT-created mecha and defiantly ordered him to stand down. However, TAGGART refused, which quickly results in a fistfight that exacerbated the situation. Fearing that he is responsible for the entire chain of events, BRONZAMITE-625 retreats and fully sides with the resistance, transforming into his car mode and allowing resistance members to ride.

### A Surprising Newcomer

BRONZAMITE-625 changes into a vehicle while retreating to escape interference and death from the two titans colliding, allowing the G/NEX resistance to ride him as a conveyance and flee from Technovolk. He gains the consent of the resistance, and they also transport the battered EION-013 to safety. However, a shadow comes from a building, successfully flinging her levitated blades into the chasing PROJECT vehicles. She presents herself to the resistance as TRISTANNA-651, and ASHE-159 shakes her hand in reverence, perceiving her as highly capable, but her identity seems unsettlingly familiar. SHIRO-113 and HAYABUSA-096 were glad that she made it, knowing that they used to be Losterian warriors back in the day.

The escape was nearly thwarted by a blockade of FT05-PRJ tanks and ATVs, but BRONZAMITE-625 transforms back into his robot mode and destroys them. However, more tanks and missile vehicles have arrived, prompting RUBICORE forces to land their troops in Technovolk and fight the PROJECT forces in armoured warfare. VI-516, forced JINX-362 to depart from the car and the two stole a MK6 Titan tank without the military's consent, but they were able to keep it after the escape.

## Aftermath

The occurrence gained planet-wide attention, therefore it was labelled a "global incident," and it was extremely demoralising for PROJECT corporation, forcing them to shelve TAGGART due to his mechanical animosity, wrath, and uncontrollability. As a result, RUBICORE launched an invasion force in Technovolk, liberating the city from the megacorporation's grip and capturing control of the Obsidian Mountains, which now served as an operational base in Evalka. Despite Technovolk's apparent destruction, OMAR-CONSTRUCT and RUBICORE forces have made slow but are progressive in restoring the city.

LILIAN-395 has requested to meet ASHE-159 in Brimstone, Freya. This earns the doubts of the resistance, but she travels alone through a Hover platform to meet her, even changing the meeting point to Avarshi instead.

## Trivia

### General

* BRONZAMITE-625 irreversibly caused this event, turning it into a global incident; Making the entire PROJECT-G/NEX War much worse than imagined. The effects have been more worse in Technological Lies.
* The fact that TAGGART and OBELISK fought each other forced PROJECT to reinforce their programming and will blindly follow orders as a result of the incident.
* PSYLOCKE-832 is notably inactive in this incident, after rejecting a request from OMAR-CONSTRUCT for COALESCENCE. This proved to be beneficial, however.
* The loose cannon, JINX-362, is to blame for roughly 46% of all property destruction in Technovolk, Obsidian Mountains, and Camelot.
* This is the only section where BRONZAMITE-625 has caused a reactor meltdown in Technovolk.
* The Loose Cannon herself was able to redeem herself and gets accepted to the resistance.
* Some say Michael Nexima is fighting somewhere, in a suit of armour known as "Iron Man". Though it can be false.
* According to a Data Vault, PROJECT has attempted to seize CTH Armaments, which was said to be the sponsor manufacturer of the future group known as MERCS, a group of mercenaries employed by RUBICORE to protect their assets and fight the megacorporation through unconventional warfare.

### Developmental Notes

* There are a lot of occurrences before *Rampancy*.
