X - Personality:
~~~~~~ ~&Apathetic at first glance, Anarkes' personality seems dull and detached, however under the emotionless expressions lies turmoil and melancholy only he knows.Withdrawn at first, Anarkes doesn't connect easily with others as a result of his past experiences and employment, and can be, at best, respectfully silent. Dedicated, and determined, though not necessarily for the payment, Anarkes will stop at nothing until his goals are met, short of deactivation itself.&~

X - Abilities and Talents:
~~~~~~ ~&Shielding Array; a small shielded device located on Anarkes' right arm emits a defensive shield, repulsing most forms of attack, if not dampening them, for a brief period of time, or unless its particle makeup has taken enough damage, allowing him to close in on most opponents before taking damage himself.

Scrambling Array; Through the same device as his Shielding Array, Anarkes can also emit a high frequency signal that scrambles, obstructs, and otherwise disables radar, motion tracking, satellite imagery, and other various electrical and mechanical signals.

Shock Absorption; Anarkes' armored hull is supported by a gel layer, which allows him to take heavy impacts with ease, dampening most physical attacks, though not completely absorbing them.

Nano-Repair; Anarkes' gel layer is a makeup of synthetic petroleum jelly and self-produced nanobots, which help repair and maintain Anarkes' body.&~

X - Special Techniques:

~~~~~~&Shredtastrophy&: ~&Punching with his MultiTool in a harpooned shape, Anarkes forces his MultiTool to expand as jaggedly as possible as he tears outward, shredding whatever his harpoon has lodged itself into, usually leaving the object in ribbons.&~

~~~~~~&Grabn'Blast&: ~&Anarkes uses his MultiTool to grapple an opponent, and fires his Ion Cannon at point blank range, usually destroying armor and equipment upon the targeted area.&~

~~~~~~&Unidentified&: ~&Unknown Content&~

X - Weapons:
~~~~~~ ~&MultiTool; Heavily armored, and extremely bulky at first glance, Anarkes' right arm houses a highly adaptable MultiTool. Used primarily as a shield, the trapezoid-shaped shield is melded into the entirety of his arm. Through the shifting of plating and rods, the MultiTool can take on various shapes and has virtually limitless uses. Typically, Anarkes utilizes various shielded melee versions of his MultiTool, forming crude axes, spears, blades, etc.

Hand Cannon; Anarkes' left forearm is more cylindrically shaped due to the housing of a mid grade Ion-Cannon. This cannon fires at mid range (up to twenty feet) and can be fired in a multitude of ways dependent on the need. Typically used to fry Mechanical unit mechanisms and operation systems, the cannon causes severe burning and radiation against any organic material.&~

X - Bio:
~~~~~~ ~&Anarkes was originally the precursor of a failed co-project between Genetics Enterprise, and Tech Inc, the project was to be called SADAs; Synthetic Artificially Dependent Andriods. The goal was to develop Androids that were less dependent on command and instruction, sharing a synthetic common sense that would allow them the most valuable weapon humankind held against them; free thought. Controversial, to say the least, the project was labled too risky and blacklisted publicly, though TI and GE had other plans. Lead software designer Demetri Gorhiem, employed by TI, and Briana Drakovicht, Senior Lab Technician for Genetics Enterprise were co-assigned to the project. Originally meant to upgrade the base androids already manufactured by TI, SADAs was a twelve month projected project, and was deemed useless if not completed by then.

Briana and Demetri became obsessed with their project, secretly re-creating a new Android from their own schematics. five months into the project, nearing the completion of the exo-armor plating, one of the final steps of Briana's schematics, Demetri's son, Allan, was diagnosed with a terminal illness that soon left his body ravaged, frail, and bed-ridden. Depressed, and unable to concentrate on his work, Demetri was almost terminated from project SADAs, and AI overall, but was covered for by Drakovicht, who had fallen for Demetri during their endless nights in the lab together. Their companionship had not gone un-noticed. Seven months into Project SADAs, during testing of the androids, Demetri and Briana were faced with failure after failure when testing the android's ability to make its own decisions against the command prompts, when statistically necessary.

Frustrated, and still grieving, Demetri stumbled upon a comic of his son's while sitting in his room. The comic's main character used objects

called soul stones to animate objects, giving them free will and intellect. The idea was fantasy, impossible, yet something he had read pushed him into research. Days later, Demetri revealed to Briana his creation, a Soulous Crystal. Knowing the project would fail for the companies, the two moved their creation to the Gorehiem family home, and hid it in a sub-basement panic room. Desperate, Demetri forged his dieing son's soul into the crystal, and with Briana's help, initiated their experimental child. During the uploading of data to the SADA, the Demetri Estate was bombarded, and later examined by a Spec.Ops Team who recovered the bodies of the two former employees. The
companies had discovered Demetri's plan and had to eliminate any chance of the rouge operation.

Activating several years later, Allan discovered a recording of his creative-parents,and absorbed as much of the information as he could that was left for him there in the panic room. Overloading his processor, Allan's systems reset, and the main Android combatant program initialized, but through a surge of the Soulous Crystal, was fused with what can only be described as Allan's Soul. The result was Anarkes, a sub-file name chosen at random from Demetri's database. A being with no memory of his parent's sacrifice, 'nor of his mortal existence, only the urging purpose to dismantle the corporations responsible for his programmers' murder<~
