## **Gallery Page · Quotes Page**

Once, S-H.A.W.S. was a man, much like you or me. However, he was taken by Talon in the middle of the night. He as used as a test subject for Project: Tyrant, the project's purpose to make an unstoppable war machine that could be controlled by simple voice commands. This was done through mental tampering, forced muscular hypertrophy, and bolting of metal plates into his bones and skull, as well as placement of cybernetic chips onto the brain stem.

When all was said and done, the man was given horrible mental trauma, brutish strength, and an immense hatred of his captors. His left arm was made into a huge, clawed limb, his chest and body was covered in heavy muscle, and heavy armor plates were attached to his flesh. When Talon first tested him out during the aftermath of The Omnic Crisis, he immediately turned on his captors, killed them all, and ran off into the woods. He was hardly seen again after that, though he has been seen in the battlefield time to time, fighting Talon agents brutally and viciously. All the while he's looking for his brother.

## Appearance

S-H.A.W.S. is incredibly strong, his body built like a tank. His left arm is covered in heavy iron armor plates bolted into his flesh, and his left hand is quite large, ending in sharp, hooked claws.

His body has thick armor plates bolted onto his chest, belly, and legs. His right arm is also strong, though without the large hooked claws. A large 4-fingered metal claw is attached to his right arm, making up for his right arm's smaller claws. The skin underneath the armor is grey, sometimes red.

his head is partially covered by a metal plate that obscures his left eye, while his right eye has a odd aiming device that allows for precise aiming.

## Personality

S-H.A.W.S acts very brutal, seemingly uncaring. His attitude is very aggressive, with an enjoyment of killing Talon Agents using his bare hands, and making Talon Bases into crumb ling heaps of steel and concrete. Aggressively takes up tasks involving killing Talon Agents, destroying Talon Bases, or popping someone's head off with his hands. Generally doesn't mind the presence of omnics, but has killed a few that got in his way.

## Role
