Powers and Abilities

HARM chose to encase his brain in a powerful robotic body.

It’s equipped with a range of sensors and target acquisition devices. Its main gunnery system is the equivalent of field artillery. It can transform in a flying barge large enough to carry his two partners.

Attica can interface with his computer systems to act as a forward observer/gunner for indirect fire.


History

The Tri-Ad team has worked together for a long time. Their first appearance was against the WildCATs. They were working for the Gnome, who was attempting to seize the Orb of Power from Helspont. They stormed the SDI facility, while the WildCATs and Youngblood were fighting each other. However, they got their ass kicked by Spartan, Maul and Warblade.

After improving their skills, they were hired by Soma, Tapestry’s sidekick, to capture the WildCATs. They succeeded except for Zealot and Grifter. Apparently, they got paid anyway.

However Attica insisted on capturing the two missing targets. That greed finally lost them, as they were confronted by the Huntsman, who bagged HARM and Attica alone, but was neutralized by Slag. Later, Soldier, Majestic and Savant, along with Grifter, got them when they located Zealot.

Gang war

They later were the first target of the Savant’s WildCATs II. HARM was shot dead by Condition Red, after Ladytron dropped on his shoulders and pulled out his helmet. The WildCATS attacked during his funeral. Tao dropped the container where HARM’s molten armor was kept, on Slag, thus encasing him in a shell of steel. Meanwhile Majestic knocked Attica out.

They were freed from their virtual prison by Tao when he was eluding the WildCATs, after his schemes were exposed.


Description

HARM’s appearance is that of his robotic body.


Personality

HARM is a bit dumb, hardly taking any initiative but following Attica’s orders. When alone, he acts only for self defense.

Quoting Attica : “I didn’t know he had a name. Hell he didn’t have a personality…”
