As Dale shifted through the ashes of the once corrupted wall. He would find a charred and twisted metallic ball, seemintly melted on the outside, but perhaps whatever was inside it could still be intact.
ζζ Torso (Damaged): The torso of a ζζ, it's a little damaged, but still salvageable. X1
Ninevee said nothing as they continued, her fight arm smoking slightly.

Though he had the option for a more through investigation should he choose... the minced pile of black ichor coated and bloody meat that both accumulated on the ground before him and someone still clung to the walls gave an indication of what was here prior.

As much as he really, really didn't want to deal with that pile of stuff, Dale knew it probably connected to...Ninetee, was it? Scary strong android. He might have to. But as much as that might be necessary, he couldn't feel safe doing it til he'd seen to something else he knew was nearby. Dale round the corner and prepares for a fight.
"Show to me what is capable of this Persona of Blue...."
As Dale rounded the corner he would come face to face with a being seemingly constructed entirely from stitched together body parts, from each seam, a trickle of Black Ichor.
You could cut something into pieces, and make one of these things out of it? And it'd live? He hated that black goo, he hated it, he hated it he HATED IT!
If they wanted to see what Enkidu could do, then Dale would happily show them. "Enkidu! Show them!" Instead of the usual roar from Chip, there was a deep rumbling laugh as the beast of clay was called forth. "Gladly."
Skill 2: Poisoned Dagger | Inflicts a small amount of Pierce damage to one enemy that has a 10% chance of poisoning. | 8% HP | Tier 1
Skill 3: Media | Recovers a small amount of HP (20%) to allies. | 8 SP | Tier 1
Skill 4: Poison Boost | Increases odds of instilling Poison by 35% [25 Base] | Passive | Tier 2
Soul Skill Name: Sculpted Munitions Persona Name: Enkidu Tier: Tier 1 Cost: Passive Type of Damage: N/A Description: Each turn in a topic, Dale generates 1 Clay round, up to a maximum of 10. Clay rounds behave as Basic Rounds, but crumble after use and when given to someone else, rendering them useless. They do not carry over between topics, and cannot be sold even if somehow kept intact after leaving Dale's possession.
Relevant Strengths/Weaknesses:
—Strength Name: Ruthless Optimisation —Description: Due to the ‘niceties’ of his current lifestyle, Dale has been forced to get familiar with the intricacies of fighting people, developing a brutal and opportunistic style of combat with the focus of taking down an opponent as quickly as possible – by any means necessary. Dale is capable of attacking twice with his soulbound weapon.
—Strength Name: Cybernetic Resilience —Description: To put it simply, Dale is made of metal. Strong metal. That means he hits like he’s made of metal, and more importantly to his survival, takes hits like he’s made of metal. Dale takes 5% less damage from physical attacks, and typically hurts to punch.
—Strength Name: Variable Fuel Converter —Description: Dale has a variety of systems designed to enable him to ingest organic materials for power. And while he doesn’t need to worry about the likes of toxins or disease, he has had to have a lot of countermeasures implemented to prevent damage in case he consumes materials that are corrosive, or otherwise hazardous. Dale has 15% lower chances of being Poisoned.
----- —Racial Strength Name: Robust Firearm Design —Description: The Rampart doesn’t appear too impressive at first, at least where Dale’s from. It looks, for all intents and purposes, like a basic heavy energy pistol. But when you get to handling it, it’s very easy to see why it’s the sidearm of choice for anyone who could afford to use it. The Vydrata Rampart has three firing modes. Standard shot (revolver), rapid-discharge (machine-gun) and energy lance (sniper). The firing mode in use is indicated by the lights on the side of the gun – blue for standard, orange for rapid, and red for lance. So long as it is not currently being fired, Dale may switch firing modes on the Rampart however he pleases.
—Weakness Name: Entry Not Found —Description: Dale’s knowledge is critically lacking, be It law, social norms, or just common objects. He started off with a very baseline of necessary knowledge, and when you’re meant to be in a lab chamber for your entire life, you can get away with removing a surprising amount from that baseline. Dale has a 15% reduction to his Pmstr.
—Weakness Name: Inadequate Thermal Regulation —Description: While Dale is fine at most temperatures, severe cold has a more pronounced negative impact on him compared to other individuals. Dale receives 15% more damage from Ice based attacks.
—Weakness Name: Outside Scope of Design —Description: Even if Dale has managed to exceed the expectations of his initial design, the fact remains – he wasn’t designed to do the things he can. As such, he’s missing a lot of the countermeasures that would mitigate the issues involved in performing these feats, making all of these superhuman feats very physically taxing. When in Orgia mode, Physical skills are half cost instead of free.
—Weakness Name: Hyperactive Threat Assessment —Description: Dale is paranoid. Quite paranoid indeed. He got that way within a week of being out, and it served him all too well since then. But that doesn’t mean the way he’ll jump at shadows is in any way good. It is 15% easier to inflict Fear on Dale.
----- —Racial Weakness Name: Hardware Compatibility Issues —Description: The Rampart was originally designed to work with a very specific type of high-capacity power cell, which allowed a ridiculous amount of usage without any concern of power. Not the cheapest, but if you could afford a Rampart, then you could probably manage. They were also compatible with a variety of other, more common cells. You didn’t get as much output, but you still got usage in line with typical standards, so it was still worthwhile. Dale, thankfully, has been able to find power cells compatible with his stolen gun on Junction. Unfortunately for him, however, they definitely don’t have the same form factor as anything back where he’s from, and the mechanisms for reloading are not the easiest to work with.
The Vydrata can only fit five rounds. Once all the bullets have been expended, Dale will have to spend a turn on reloading his gun before it can be fired again. Should he try to use the Rampart’s rapid-fire mode while he has less than three rounds remaining, he will instead fire however many rounds remain, but otherwise the behaviour is the same.
Action:
Using Poisoned Dagger - 14 Pierce Damage on hit. Current HP: 75/81
The sound of earthy laughter only recurs as Enkidu's hand spears into the creature before them. As it rears back from the blow, Enkidu gives Dale a quick wave before he crumbles. "Your turn, partner."
As the pieces of the Persona fall to the ground, a volley of brilliant blue energy slams into the stitched abomination. "Got them. Couldn't have done it without you." Chip barks appreciatively.

"Magnificent..."
Ninevee's porcelain visage curled into a smile as she watched the Persona of Blue tear into the corrupted being.
Dale's savage assault would nearly rip the best apart as chunks of it's flesh was torn away under a hail of gunfire. Each bullet staggered the creature, however it was undaunted as it swung one giant meaty fist towards Dale as a counter attack.

The mighty blow that came as a counter would have been painful had it struck home...but the bellowing roar that sounded out in the tunnels showed it was not meant to be.
"SLOPPY!"
Rippling clay arms wrap around the punching limb and redirect the force, using the might of the blow to pivot around and slam the stitched abomination into the wall. Job done, Enkidu leaps back and dissolves into a dusty spray, opening the way for Dale to follow up with a pair of axe swings.

Dale tore savagely into the creature as he took advantage of the opening Enkidu provided, taking it off balance with a cut into its front, and a far deeper one along its leg. As he saw it falter, he pressed his advantage, sending in rapid blows meant to cripple and dismember.

"To improve so much after a single combat... Are you certain that you yourself are not a nine frame?" Ninevee's flat voice held an impressed, shocked tone hidden under it's layers of monotone. She eyed the decimated mound of flesh that once was the corrupted flesh golem and smirked. "What potential..."

It was done. It wasn't moving. It wasn't going to move, and Dale was all too happy about that particular fact. He turns around to Ninevee. "I think so...I don't think they have...'nine frames' where I'm from..." Dale's body locks up for a moment, his eyes staring into a space that wasn't there until a nudge from Chip snaps him out of it. "Nothing. Remembering." Looking back at the once moving chunk of flesh, he turns his attention to the way he came...and the pile of flesh and black goo he'd ignored at first to deal with the thing he'd stopped. "Guess I need to look at that now..."
