multiweave padding, Rigidium carbide laminate, titanium skeleton with
carbon polymer foam core. Various alumnium and steel components.
Addition Features: ISN series microbot reservoir.
(ISN-Cero series "Insecticon" units for limited auto-repair capability
and for remote, wireless network infiltration)
Additional Bodies: Aquatic Shell (personal submersible
marine craft alternate form), Ebon Shell (powered by Dark Matter Ion
Trapping and Recovery Infrastructure (D.M.I.T.R.I.) microprocessors and
logic chipsets which immunize sensors and instruments from effects of
the De Midian Shadow), Vulcan Shell (Composite armor for withistanding
up to 11,000 degrees Centigrade)
Newly Added Features: R.P.M. Armor Capability *see R.P.M. Armor List*
"The support unit, designated RVG-Gamma, is one of my most arduous
endevours. This unit was built for combat scenarios and houses a
vertitable personal arsenal of ballistics, explosives, and debilitating
electrical weapons. Equipped in a back hatch are paired autoturrets
capable of deliverying a high volume of shells--both swivel and adjust
tradjectory in unison or independently, compatable with traditional
ammunition, armor-piercers, or explosive-tipped ordinance.
Deployed from collapsing spoiler-wing units on Gamma's shoulder joints
are a set of deployable rocket launcher systems capable of firing
surface to air missiles, concussive ordinacy, tunnelers, and underwater
torpedos. Additional missile types can be compatabilized if the need
arises in future missions. Of particular note is the Zeus Thunderbolt
electroshock discharge cannisters, capable of delivering an intense
localized electric plasma explosion; more than sufficient to
incapacitate humanoid and mechanical adversaries. Gamma is also equipped
with melee range claws and fangs, the former enhanced with microblade
diamond-carbide, the latter mechanically assisted with high torque
hydraulics in the mandible joints. Save for the later Generation 2 Kappa
Unit, no other Support Unit has this much weapon capacity, making Gamma
the frontline sword of the animal-type mechanical constructs.
In addition it has the added advantages of two methods of network
infiltration at its disposal--via hardline serial and parallel
communication cables and via remote link to a deployed payload of
ISN-Cero series microbots normally kept inert in the upper chest cavity.
This feature not only safeguards the RPM megaframe from suspicious or
risky computer system infiltrations but also provides it with an
external memory system to upload and download programs and data from.
This allows its designated user, most often Sally Acorn, to vastly
compensate for a lack of programming knowledge and ability in Violet
Tokugawa's or Scott O'Conner's absence from mission. Gamma's various
firewalls, anti-backhack, and antivirus software meets and exceeds the
standards necessary to augment the UCI Action Team's information
technology in the field.
Regarding Gamma's A.I., traits from several breeds of large cat
including puma, panther, cougar, and jaguar were interwoven into its
core consciousness architectures. While maintaining a strong sense of
duty and loyalty, Gamma's ferocity in the field is never to be
questioned. If a UCI so orders, Gamma's prey is as good as incapacitated
or disposed of. During downtime, many UCI have noted his cat-like
behaviors. Gamma is quite curious but cautious. As a side note I've
noted it has become rather fond of the rather cliche activity of playing
with a ball of yarn. While it has shown interest in both fish and
birds, Gamma refrains from hunting them as a real cat would; he is quite
aware that he is a machine and not one of its living counterparts.
While I am hesitant to bring it up, I must unfortunate document Gamma's
behavior for exhibiting fear when he senses hazards capable of actually
causing serious damage to him. Of note is his encounters with the one
known as Aurelis; I am informed Gamma was witness to a multitude of
alchemic catastrophies sown by the offending party. UCI members have
described Gamma as one to cover his optics with his forepaws while
distancing himself from Aurelis. My endevours to filter this out of his
A.I. have been less than successful. I have concluded that as long as it
does not impact his performance in the field, it is no cause for alarm.
Gamma shows great potential for further expansions; I have even siezed
the opportunity to implement a new feature I will explain in greater
detail in the report on the RPM Armors."
