-Zero V.1


Name: More like a code name than a name, he is usually refered to as Zero, or Version 1 as to not to confuse him with his 'brother'.
Age: His current body is about 210 years old, his mind is programmed to represent a young adult or older teenager.
Gender: N/A (body-build is modeled after a human male)


Personality: Zero has a very headstrong personality. He takes things head on, and is often a very serious individual. His artificial eyes always seem to look for a new goal in the distance, and rarely is it possible to talk to him in a calm manner. He follows the path of the warrior, longing to be the strongest fighter of them all without any real reason to do so - he simply has no other use for his strength and given powers.
Being a robot, Version 1 has a computer virus inside of him that makes it impossible to reprogram him - he sees himself and other robots superior to humans, but doesn't look down on them by default. Instead, he thinks that as superior beings, robots should take care of humans and make sure they don't destroy themselves, since their foolishness is often far greater than that of an AI.
Habing an AI designed for being a 'person' rather than an 'entity' basically by his hardware, he is unable to simply read in unlimited information or the like, but he can use memory sticks to gain knowledge fast or save his own memory banks to them for use by others or to safe keep them, having lost his memory cache more than once in the past.
As a warrior, Zero is very ruthless and brutal - he destroys those that oppose him without a second thought or regret, cutting them down into bits and pieces with his energy blade. In that sense, he is a perfect war machine, since he keeps peace and order through destruction instead of protection.
However, should he grow to like someone, he might be caught smiling once in a while, or actually using his powers to help someone other than himself. Inside, he is mainly a jerk - he will never show his liking to someone, but if he feels it, the person who he appreciates will notice somehow for sure. Obtaining the trust of the android is hard, but it holds a lifetime long once it is there.
In battle Version 1 more of a beast of war, being built to take on armies. And always long for a fight that shall end all fights.
While always keeping it secret, Zero longs for moments of peace and tranquility for himself and others.

Power Development Stage 1 Describtion: His first stage of combat prowess is the use of the Z-Saber V1, an energy sword that can be modified into many shapes, and the usage of his Z-Buster V1, a one-handed semi-automatic energy gun. His blades are sharp and durable, but don't vibrate or burn objects. The micro fusion-cells powering them have the theoretical maximum output time of 500 years before needing replacements, which are easy to get in today’s time.
Power Development Stage 1 Abilities:
Z-Saber V1 x2
Zeros weapon’s of choice is carried on his back most of the time, upon unsheathing it. .It is a medium-length energy sword, and Zero can perform a variety of moves with it: The air cutter, where he spins around forward while jumping to rapidly cut opponents, or the rolling slash, with which he does that move on the ground, moving constantly forward until stopped by an obstacle that's too hard to cut down or an enemy attack.
Upon charging it with Reishi, the next sword slash will release a small energy wave shooting out, dealing the same damage the sword would. If an element chip is in effect, the charged move will take over that element.


Z-Buster V1x2
A weapon hidden in the armor of his hands, the Z-Buster is mostly used left-handed with the Z-Saber still taken out in the right. It can fire small bullets with half the strength of a Bala in rapid succession, or be charged with Reishi for a short time to release a blast with half the strength of a Cero. Unlike Version 2, this one can fire up to 2 charge shots at once.

K knuckle x2
this is a set of brass knuckles built into his hands which are great for close-up attacks. Using them grants Zero access to the special technique called RyuKen where Reitsu is placed into them and make an empowered punch with the power to shatter 3 blocks down, this technique takes 2 post to gather the energy before he can do it/

B Fan x4
this is a pair of fans offering high attack and defense capabilities. This are foldable and stored in his leg armor and extras stored in his lower back area. They can deflect energy attacks when Zero is standing still. And can bypass energy barriers. The downside to these are, they need to be charged with reaitsu the full time they are out in order to do so.


Power Development Stage 2 Describtion: The second ability of Zero is to use the three Elemental data into his main frame, changing his color when active, activating a 'form' in which he takes less damage from that element, and has his charged attacks change element. However, his elemental data also activates a set of special moves with the Saber. These where turned into chips for version 2
Power Development Stage 2 Abilities:
Flaming Upper
Propelling himself upward, Zero slashes above him with a superheated blade, able to cut many materials with ease. Afterwards, he crashes down with the saber, releasing a ring of fire around him.

Thunder Roll
A special move rolling over the ground, Zero is now super-charged with electricity, and will release this energy with each slash, more and more, until he stops rolling, jumps out of his form and slashes down, releasing all dormant energy left in a tower of lightning. The resulting explosion sounds like a loud thunder. This move can also be used in the air.

Ice Breaker
Zero cools down his energy blade extremely, before releasing ranged slashes that release flying ice slicers, able to freeze whatever they hit in addition to freezing them.

Wily Virus
A move and also the unlocking of Stage 3 at one. Activating the Virus is only possible with Zero reciting the quote "'Ragnarok Beast of War ". The virus can use any elements, and Zeros overall strength in it is tremendous, his speed is increased greatly This makes the power of all the weapons greatly increase as well, such as a uncharged shot from the Z Buster V1 are now have the normal shots are like ceros while the fuly charge shots are much stronger and faster than before.


Power Development Stage 3 Appearance: After releasing the virus, Zeros eyes glow red, indicating the change of personality, together with a bright purple W appearing on the crystal on his forehead. Zero is often seen manically smiling and laughing like a madman in this form, which is said to be the 'purified' mind of the robot. His armor turns black as well
Power Development Stage 3 Abilities: Wily Zero is a Zero that removed all limiters on his body and bloodlust, making his physical power increase, with his fighting style changing into that of a Berserker. He still is intelligent and cunning enough to change weapons without trouble, and wants to destroy everything in his path. Usually, Wily Zero will change back into Zero after some time, but with each release, it get's harder to snap out of War Mode. Using it too often will render Zero unable to change back. His brother-robot, Zero V.2, is the only one with the code installed to turn War Zero back into Zero if that happens.

If both are nearby in the same area with there Omega and Wily Mode one, there codes hall return there minds and allow them to in the Stage three form. But to do this they cant have more than 240 meters apart from each other.

Background: Zeros story begins before he was actually built, during the times where the first air-cities powered by Reishi Reactors were made. The first of those cities was mainly a large mass of production facilities and factories, with nearly no humans actually living there, since it was mainly an experiment. So, to maintain this area, robotics were heavily used, together with robots known as 'Robot Masters', strong robots with artificial intelligence building more robots and controlling the ones without intelligence to maintain the facilities. However, one of the lead scientists saw the great powers behind the machines he built... and decided that his robots were not made to serve.
He made them to rule.

Incorporating more and more battle routines secretly into the robots, he also designed his first robot made specifically to fight - Project ZERO, a complete war machine with human-like intelligence, but completely obedient to his master. In fact, the doctor created two versions, a heavily armored Zero made to fight on land and large-scale battlefields, even underwater and the light-weight Zero V.2, made for infiltration and assassination with incredible speed and strength. At least in theory.
The doctor cared for them like for his own sons, and even conversed with them in semi-activated states during the creation, like a father. While both Zeros expelled strong cases of sarcasm and cynism and often made the doctor mad, they still obeyed their father thanks to their programming.
In order to take over the world, after finishing the robots, he created a virus that corrupted the programming of normal machines and made them go haywire in order to hijack all Robot Masters in the sky city they were made in, the 'Irregular Virus' which would make them all obedient to the doctors will.
However, Zero V.2 had a strong defect in him - he was able to refuse orders at least a bit, so since the doctor never stated to leave the Virus alone, Zero hacked into it and began to rewrite it constantly while carrying out his covert op actions to take over robots. He did this since he did not want to enslave his robot brothers, calling all those made by the same doctor 'brothers'. When the doctor noticed what his 'son' did, when the first robots attacked by Zero suddenly also turned on him and joined Zeros cause of independent robots, and after converting even his brother to his side by breaking his programmed shackles with the Zero Virus, the doctor decided he had to built a new robot able to defeat Zero to regain control over his robots.
During this time, Zero joined a group of other independent Robots and human scientists, called 'the Resistance', in the sky city. Together with their commanding scientist, a genetically altered female human teenager, he took down many of the doctors leading robot forces, while also fighting against the threat of 'Irregulars', robots either acting violently after being afflicted by the Zero virus or simply those gone haywire.

Finally, the doctor decided to take down the whole city with his new, best robot - Omega, modeled after Zero in the body, was actually a computer virus able to take on corporeal form that threatened to turn all robots and androids into irregulars. Fighting against him, Zero V.2 took him on alone while Zero V.1 and Ciel evacuated the robots and humans of the city, as Omega aimed to destroy the engines making the city float.
During the battle, Zero had to use his own body to seal away Omega, but in doing so, he also had to seal away his maximum fighting capabilities so that Omega could not take over. Creating the 'Omega Chip', he was from then on able to use Omega Zeros power to change into a merged consciousness version of the ax-crazy robot virus.

Zero V.1 at that time was fighting off the rest of the “robot masters” and save the citizens of the city. But a the battle drew on he was reaching his limit getting slower. Before lone The doctor had sent his other super war machine Sigma to deal with Zero V.1, before long Zero himself was losing till one of the robots saved him by acting like a shield, the robot was called Iris. This gave Zero time to recover some, as she died from sigma attack, he took revenge by punching the war machine sigma core out of his body and slicing it in half.

Normally, the city would've been saved, but the doctor attacked Zero with the use of a highly advanced combat mech, and managed to damage the cities reactor. The only way to rescue the still inhabited area under it, Zero V.2 faced his father in battle, and defeated him, before causing the entire core of the colony 'Ragnarok' to explode, tearing it into small debris raining down into the area, only causing minor damage. Still, this released the Zero Virus on a scale where it even affected the organics, and the area under it turned into a wasteland and desert. Zero was supposedly dead, and Ciel soon afterwards vanished, being in love with Zero even though he was a robot, with him supposedly returning her feelings. What became of her afterwards is not known, neither if she found Zero, nor if she is still alive today.

One hundred years have passed in today’s time after the collapse of the sky city. In the desert left of it, many rampant robots and haywire machinery was still active, those that did not escape in time - but on one day, something disrupted the sealed being sleeping under the sands. Erupting in a flash, Zero cut down every single one of the rampant machines before deciding to leave the desert.
His memory banks were damaged from the fall, and he does not remember how he survived the explosion and ended up sealed, or what unsealed him, either. He does remember key elements of his life, like being made by the doctor, leading a robot resistance with his brothers, and knowing a girl named Ciel, as well as having a very good friend in another independent robot that was built to be independent from the start, unlike Zero, but especially his memories of fighting Omega and the doctor are rigged at best, if not completely gone.

As for V.1 he traveled the earth alone all these years destroying all the “robot masters” that remain

Approved, 2-1 for normal, and for his ultimate form 1-1.
