Description

The Invincible, RHULIC CHARACTER HEAVY WARJACK

Constructed a decade ago as a simple warjack to be used against the wild beasts that sometimes atest Rhullic communities, it was nicknamed the Invincible after its demonstrated ability to survive battles. Its owner, a Rhullic Lord named Saverack Gohmer, had a powerful and somewhat sentimental attachment to this warjack which he chose to heavily customize with his immense wealth. The greatest warjack designers of Rhul offered him designs and plans to retrofit the jack. It wasnt until the legendary engineer Thannis Breckkor tabled his design to drasticly improve both the defencive and offensive capability by replacing the armor plating with Serric steel which lightweight properties allowed for an unparreled number of armor layers. Secondly, was installing two high quality but compact burners which would give the warjack the highest level of torque and power possible for all of its servo's making it offically the strongest unmagically enhanced warjack in history.

The fickle nature of the Serric steel market saw it take almost three years for the materials to be gathers. During that time the Searforge commision had been founded and the Rhullic ballifs had heard rumors of a new monsterious jack being created within their boarders. It was when Saverack had completed the warjack did he realise that he was almost bankrupt, with many of his trading ventures crippled by the war abroad and the instabilities that it was creating within Rhul itself. Nonetheless, he pressed the warjack into service complete with a replicated, if not warjack sized version of his family axe in its metallic grasp and a complicated weapons system designed by Herne Stonegord, it easily quashed any threat to the Rhullic communities in northern khador. Upon witnessing its effectiveness, Gorgit Stockholm convinced the newly convened Rhulic war council to purchase the jack, citing that it was far too powerful and impressive to be wasted defending Rhul against bandits and boogymen while real threats gathered beyond its boarders.

Saverack was paid handsomely beyond its worth, and was given a small group of Rhulic warjacks in exchange for the Invincible. It has only seen real battle a handful of times and has yet to suffer from any damage that could not be repaired. At great expense and difficulty, its Serric steel plates have been reforged and reconnected and it has been hailed as the pinnacle of warjack design and achievement. It was rumored that the Rhullic embassy in Korsk has placed a sizable bet that the Invincible would outlast and defeat the famed khadoran Behemoth in a fight.

Concept Notes

I wanted to make a distinctly Rhulic jack, with there low DEF and good ARM i wanted to make it somewhat different than the Behemoth with its own unique advantages.

The Invincible has only one powerful melee attack but it is a doozy. Combined with his repeating cannon, with some focus the Invincible can heavily punish any enemy.

Unbridled is interesting because it means it cant be affected by popular anti-jack strategies. Slams, knockdowns and other attacks he is immune along with debuffs for SPD and
