<(Being Level 2, Phase does not yet receive Bugfrags)>
"Hm? That went off quicker than I thought it would..." Vincent squinted at a readout, holding the BoyBomb chip to his ear and shaking as though he expected to hear it rattle. When no obvious defect seemed forthcoming, he shrugged and set it down to continue, "Well, Phase, that was a tad messy, but I suppose it could have gone much worse. Do you wish to continue?"
"Uhh, of course I'm gonna keep going? That one barely counted, c'mon," Still swatting at errant bees, Phase ran the collections engine without a glance. Whatever her reasons for being out here, tangible rewards had nothing to do with it. Nonetheless, the viewscreen saw fit to highlight the mystery data where it glimmered in a tree, and she wasn't about to turn her nose up at cracking it open. "Stand by to receive whatever this is," she said, sounding bored, and reached down a massive hand down through the tree's canopy to poke at its bounty with a finger.

As Phase began to crack open the GMD, a roar erupted out from the diamond she was opening. Moments later, her surroundings began to glitch out, terrain disappearing and reappearing, her surroundings changing like nothing else...until she was in another part of the network far and away from where she had been previously...
The feet of Dignity would land on some solid terrain, a marbled-like terrain that spread out in larger sections, with some pathways connecting across the area to those sections. A magnetizing force could also be felt in various areas of the new field, mostly away from Phase, if nothing else, and, of course, Glass scattered across the field, thin but durable enough for Dignity to stand on...unfortunately for Phase, however, a many tentacled monstrosity was quite literally in front of her. The GMD had transformed into a mimic, a shadowy core between two halves of a bisected GMD crystal and two shadowy eyes leering down...not at Dignity...but peering straight at Phase...leaning down, the creature studied Dignity curiously, turning it's head back and forth out of curiosity...before practically roaring in Phase's face, a trio of viruses answering the call.
Falling down from the skies above, a Scarecrow virus would land in the west, right on top of a Magnet panel, smacking it's chest with it's arms in defiance of Phase's continued existence on the network. A Phirana coming in from not far away, spinning it's arms to an unknown beat and showing off a spear within it's mouth as it began to hone in on Phase's signature...then dropped in the last virus, a sickly purple colored Hardhead would crash down from the skies above, landing in the middle of a Normal patch off to the north-west, mouth closed tightly and preparing it's cannonballs for Phase to enjoy dodging in Dignity's chasis. As the viruses finished showing up, the mimic would rear it's face upwards and let out another roar, battle routines activating almost immediately after, locking Phase and Dignity into another battle...

ScarecrowScarecrow (Scarecrow)
Scarecrow attack every action, if able. Every time they attack, they recover HP equal to their attack power regardless of whether or not they hit anything. This virus type also has the rare ability to absorb Elec element damage as healing for the same amount. They are immune to any status effects associated with Elec element damage/attacks. Scarecrows are anchored to the ground, and thus enjoy the effects of SuperArmor. Scarecrow are never encountered underground or indoors.

A Mystery Data bisected horizontally, with a shadowy core binding the halves together. Two menacing red eyes leer out from the shadows in the crack between them, and a swirl of dark energy of the same color as the data whirls around the entire virus constantly. A Mimic only spawns if an MD is present, and the roll to check contents comes up as a Trap. The MD then becomes a single Mimic. Mimics do not ever appear otherwise. Once triggered, a Mimic either mass summons Viruses, Navis, or other Battle Programs for the next battle number, or mass teleports all allies to the location of the next battle (which is always within the same network area), and the battle begins immediately. These mass summon and mass teleport abilities are unique to Mimics, and cannot be emulated. When a Mimic is defeated, it reverts to MD form. At this point, it becomes ethereal, and cannot be damaged in any way.

Dignity's virus alarm had several levels of urgency, increasing threats corresponding to increasingly clamorous claxons in the cockpit. Electric viruses threw the rating up several notches automatically, to say nothing of the immediate threat of the Mimic and the sudden relocation it triggered: Phase's yell of consternation was almost wholly drowned out in noise. Vincent was able to make out, "What the HELL, VINCENT?" alongside several curses he'd definitely never used around her. Dignity nonetheless lurched into a rushed sidestep, engine revving with a wild howling of steam. As the claxon finally died off, the clamour shifted into the clanging percussion of hammering piston legs.
Mindful of the Scarecrow more than anything, Phase cranked the temperature gauge to its lowest point and turned on the ice machine. She was careful to keep the flow contained to Dignity's chassis, as any overspill onto the ground would only increase the danger of a potential electric shock. Icicles jingled where they hung from her brassy limbs, the iceover thick enough to repel a blow, but defence alone wasn't going to be enough. Thankfully Vincent was at least proving up to the task, as three chips loaded rapid-fire into Dignity. At least he was learning, she thought privately, and leaned into her targeting grip.
Dignity's shoulder cannon swivelled in its socket, feathering left and right in sync with flicks of Phase's right wrist. The AquaNeedles made for a simple projectile for Dignity's system; no modification was necessary to create the needles. The skyward cannon barked once with its muzzle pointed almost vertically, then dropped its barrel as Phase jinked the target marker back to the Scarecrow, and sounded off twice more. A threefold salvo of water pressurized into needle-thin bullets shot high, and whistled high as they plummeted towards the most immediate threats.
Again the colossal steam engine revved its gears. Sweat ran down Phase's forehead; it was getting hotter in the cockpit. Fast as she dared, she guided Dignity through another sidestep, the brass colossus pivoting a full ninety degrees to place its far foot behind it, arms wheeling wide to keep balanced. While the other foot swung to return Dignity to approximately where she'd started, Phase prepped another chip, this time priming the main gun to fire. The Shotgun needed a moment for the barrel to reconfigure, but aiming was a simpler matter of holding the cannon low to the ground with Dignity's massive reach, lining the viruses up and jamming the trigger. As massive as it was, the gun's report sent enough recoil up Dignity's arm to throw Phase hard in her harness, a storm of buckshot exploding from the initial round upon impact.
All at once Phase became aware of a pain in her jaw; her teeth were grit tight enough to hurt. Growling with unspent frustration, she forced her jaw to slack and rolled her neck. The last chip was familiar, and while Vincent hadn't named a target, with one glance at the readout the choice seemed clear. Dignity's torso swivelled at the waist into the farther reaches of its flexibility, gun arm still slung low at virus-plinking height. The Piranha was far from the most threatening, but the fewer viruses chipping away at Dignity's defences, the better. Her cannon loomed before the fishlike virus, wide enough to swim straight up - and so, too, was the ensuing cannonball large enough to bowl the Piranha over completely.

monster in front of her, the Mimic did exactly what Phase thought it would do, a blast of glitchy energy exploding out from the Mimic and evade the attack as the Scarecrow would do the same, leading into a secondary attack they would avoid thankfully. Defenses up and ready to fight properly, the Phranha would fire off a trio of spears at Dignity's chasis, two managing to hit home and crack the icey shell, just barely at least (5x2).
Phase sent munitions into the skies, though her needle aimed at the Mimic went wide, the other two would strike the Scarecrow right in it's head (25x2) and leave a lasting impression. Though as Phase was anticipating another attack, the Deadhead off to the northwest would begin to open up and with it, a sickly purple cannonball would launch ever so shortly after, sending the arcing projectile hurtling quick and...overshooting the attack by a good several panels at the very minimum, landing just behind where Dignity and quickly melting the glass panel it hit into a caustic goop.
The Piranha would fire another trio of attacks and, two would go wide from Dignity's dodge, but the last would graze against it's ice coated chasis (5) before blasting the Mimic point blank with a shotgun, sending the blast into and through the glitchy creature and into the Scarecrow as it almost readied itself up for another attack, leading to Phase's biggest threat disappearing entirely. The Deadhead would quickly close itself up again to protect itself, whilst Dignity swiveled around in Dignity and let off a blast of energy at the Piranha, managing to blast it out of existence with a well placed cannon shot. Unfortunately for Dignity, this gave the mimic just enough time to cough up a glob of glitched data, managing to splatter it all over Dignity's chasis (15+Glitch), the mech's interal systems beginning to heat up almost immediately afterwards, a glitch had gotten in and began to overheat Dignity's internal systems.

Unfortunately for Dignity, this gave the mimic just enough time to cough up a glob of glitched data, managing to splatter it all over Dignity's chasis (15+Glitch), the mech's interal systems beginning to heat up almost immediately afterwards, a glitch had gotten in and began to overheat Dignity's internal systems.
-- Viruses --
ScarecrowScarecrow (Scarecrow)
Scarecrow attack every action, if able. Every time they attack, they recover HP equal to their attack power regardless of whether or not they hit anything. This virus type also has the rare ability to absorb Elec element damage as healing for the same amount. They are immune to any status effects associated with Elec element damage/attacks. Scarecrows are anchored to the ground, and thus enjoy the effects of SuperArmor. Scarecrow are never encountered underground or indoors.

Green MimicGreen Mimic (Mimic)
A Mystery Data bisected horizontally, with a shadowy core binding the halves together. Two menacing red eyes leer out from the shadows in the crack between them, and a swirl of dark energy of the same color as the data whirls around the entire virus constantly. A Mimic only spawns if an MD is present, and the roll to check contents comes up as a Trap. The MD then becomes a single Mimic. Mimics do not ever appear otherwise. Once triggered, a Mimic either mass summons Viruses, Navis, or other Battle Programs for the next battle number, or mass teleports all allies to the location of the next battle (which is always within the same network area), and the battle begins immediately. These mass summon and mass teleport abilities are unique to Mimics, and cannot be emulated. When a Mimic is defeated, it reverts to MD form. At this point, it becomes ethereal, and cannot be damaged in any way.

Special: Gains a 20 HP barrier every turn it is not attacking. Does not stack.: 150 HP (Glass) (Right in front of Phase/Dignity)
PiranhaPiranha (Piranha)
Piranha viruses work as a hive-mind. They all move at the same time, attempt to detect targets at the same time, and once a targets is detected by any of them, they all attack that one target at the same time. Moving and searching for targets takes one action. Attacking takes another. Any Piranha just recovering from a status effect that prevents normal operation will resume acting in unison with the rest of the group.

DeadHeadDeadHead (DeadHead)
A purple HardHead. Aside from the color, it doesn't look any different from a HardHead, ColdHead, or HotHead.
Special Note: DeadHeads alternate actions between attacking and guarding. These are the only actions DeadHeads may perform, and the first action of every battle is always guarding. DeadHeads will not break from this pattern unless forced to by status effects. DeadHeads cannot be lifted or thrown, even with RageClaw. DeadHeads have permanent Zombie status, hence their name.

Overheated Buster: The navi's internal systems are beginning to overload, leading to buster charges being generated, but, if kept, will damage the navi in turn. (+1 buster charge at the start of a turn, take Fire damage equal to half of a navi's charge damage (Half-charges and/or full charges, these stack) at turn end if charges are left. The damage can be blocked with shields, barriers or casings, however nonsensical it may be)

More alarms made themselves known, alongside a series of red warning lights spanning Dignity's control bank. "What the hell does all that mean?" Phase swore.
"Temperature's rising, must be a glitch!" Dignity's system readouts were a veritable maze where they sprawled across Vincent's computer, to the point diagnosing was as much guesswork as actual deducing. Thinking fast, he offered, "Try to keep Dignity's pressure down, you'll rupture a pipe if the steam buildup runs away on us."
Phase wanted to make a smart remark about Vincent keeping her pressure down, but there wasn't time to think of it. Instead she reached for the temperature dial and cranked it as low as it would go. Dignity's reservoir immediately cranked out a deluge of rime enough to spill to the ground and freeze underfoot, but the temperature of Dignity's internal pipeworks continued to rise unabated. "Well that didn't work!" she complained, shoving her shoulder into the right butterfly grip to set Dignity back into a strafe. If nothing else, the ice underfoot was making it easier on the mech, her gyros automatically compensating for the frozen ground and resolving the awkward stomping into a smoother, skating gait. All the while she eyed the temperature - even standing on ice, the buildup continued. "Vincent, how do I fix it before something ruptures?"
"I'm working on it! Just keep up the movement - wait for the cannonball virus to open up!" Vincent got another grumbled cuss for his efforts.Making the cockpit as complex to control had perhaps been an oversight, he mused as he watched Phase flail between controls. Perhaps the control scheme needed updating, but Phase was at least making it work for now, Dignity strafing across her icy runoff with as much grace as could be expected of a piston-legged colossus. From his view Vincent could see her aim: she was trying to put the Mimic between her and the DeadHead, so as to hit them both. Now she had a hand free to load the Battlechip - yes, there, Dignity's cannon was re-configuring.
Net-side, Phase found herself too short of breath for comfort. The heat in the cockpit was oppressive, and the leather of her pilot suit trapped the steam and sweat against her skin in a way that was quickly becoming unbearable. Her hands slipped on the hot metal grips - irritated, she wiped them on her hands and focused on aiming. Thankfully nothing was moving, she had enough to worry about without having to track moving targets, so long as the Mimic loomed before her. Instinct screamed to retreat and gain distance, but between the speed of the Mimic's beam and the effective range of the DeadHead, distance wouldn't make her any safer. Better to strafe, and try to line the two viruses up to get the most use of her Battlechip. She'd given the DeadHead time to try loosing a shot on her, now it was time to return fire before she had to see what taking a cannonball felt like.
The lightning rod Dignity's cannon had unfurled sparked with enough raw juice to destroy the virus twice-over, if she could just line up her shot, clenching the control until it hurt so as not to risk her sweaty hands slipping. Upon pulling the trigger, the DollThunder blasted forth in a jagged, fluorescent-bright streak, piercing unabated to the far end of the arena where the DeadHead sat. Phase could smell the ozone even twenty-some feet above the thunderbolt, blinking glare from her eyes as she returned her attention to the Mimic. Over the whining pipes she yelled, "Vincent, it's getting pretty damn hot in here! You got anything or not?"
From the speaker Vincent's voice crackled, "It's in your buster systems! Use Dignity's cannon on its own without Battlechips, and the pressure should let off." Without leaving room for second thoughts, Phase levelled Dignity's cannon on the Mimic and fired off a shot, quick and underwhelming as base busters always were, and with no visible changes to Dignity's pressure. "No, the - the secondary trigger behind the primary, hold that one down! That primes Dignity's reservoir for a charged shot!" She found the trigger in question, and was relieved to hear at least one alarm cut out. On the other hand, the temperature in the cockpit immediately increased further, as close as Dignity's cockpit was to the reservoir where steam was building.
With one final curse to Vincent's design sense and need to over-complicate what didn't need to be complicated, Phase contorted her fingers into the controls until she found the condition to fire, and wasted no time letting it fly. Dignity's temperature immediately dropped, all the pent-up heat and pressure converting into a powerful burst of boiling water directly in the Mimic's abstract face. Phase noisily gusted a sigh of relief, leaning back in her seat and taking her hands off the controls to scrub at her face. "Man, if that didn't do it, I'm gonna be pissed," she muttered, mostly to herself, but the microphone caught it anyway. Vincent sighed in reply, but didn't comment.

As Phase felt the pressure building and Vincent did his best to supply and talk her through Dignity's pressure and heat building, the navi was quick to release the mech's cooling systems all around it's feet, coating a good portion of the field going outwards from her, it wouldn't take long for it to completely solidify despite the heat the mech was radiating inside and out. A thin sheet of ice would crack and break glass under it to no real harm as it was overwritten, whist the normal paneling near Phase and Dignity would be completely frosted over. This, however, was bad news for the Mimic, recoiling in anger as some of it's tentacles became iced over in the process, but quickly shedding the frost that had come up and over it's method of movement.
Thankfully, the mech was completely unhindered in the cold it created as Dignity made Phase move, strafing around the Mimic and trying to line up the two viruses, the Mimic began to charge up a beam of energy, thick rivulets of power forming in it's crosshatch mouth before leaning forwards and attempting to blast Dignity point blank...but thanks to both the ice beneath and Phase's movements, the beam just barely avoided clipping the navi and mech, going off into the distance before disappearing. And the Deadhead would finally open it's mouth, sending another of those poisonous cannonballs at Phase, a lower more aimed shot this time...only to go wide again and disappear into the distance as the navi and mech unloaded a supercharged beam of pure lightning into the viruses, crushing the Mimic and the Deadhead in a single blast (200!, 100) deleting both in a single blast.
Rewards scattered about, Zenny piling into the Mech's body as battle chip data entered right after...as the GMD Phase initially opened appeared in front of her mech, the battle finished as the GMD could sense, it would unfurl again harmlessly this time as a chip would spin atop the newly made platform atop of the GMD. Thankfully, Dignity's systems would begin to cool down immensely after battle routines finished, leading to a unburnt-to-a-crisp navi.

"Well! I should think that round went rather well, all things considered!" Vincent tapped a few keys and ran Dignity's collection engine, then rose to his feet, wincing only slightly at the extensive time spent sitting. "I'm off to make a cuppa, alright? I'll just be in the other room, so you can call if you need anything." No reply - Phase just snorted and set Dignity back to walking. "...Right, I'm off then." Awkwardly, Vincent stepped away to his kettle and busied himself perhaps overmuch going about his business. Waiting, perhaps, for even a smart remark, but there would be none of that.
Net-side, Phase felt uncomfortable in some wretched, impossible to pin down sort of way. While Dignity's temperatures were running nominal again, her skin still felt overheated and overly sensitive where her leather suit rubbed and chafed. With a cry of irritation, she clawed at her jacket's buckles until she was able to tear the whole thing off, plucking at the tank top underneath where sweat had soaked it to a clinging mess. That was better, she thought as she leaned back into the control grips, but still she felt itchy somehow. Absently her thumbs ran and picked at her fingernails where her hands clenched and steered Dignity. Out of this strange glass-and-magnet board the Mimic had warped her, and aimlessly out into the jungle the mech walked once more, trampling the grass under massive, brass-shod feet.

As Phase got herself comfortable in the pilot's seat again, the jungle came back in around her from that weird distorted area the mimic had sent her to, but it wouldn't be very long, stepping through grass and mud before she found some solid "normal" terrain behind a massive tree as poison bubble bubble toil and troubled itself on either side of the massive tree and mud caked underneath it. Big enough that it's boughs and leaves would reach into the heavens she couldn't even see, casting a wide degree of cool shade upon the area and wide enough to hold a good number of navigators that were brave...or stupid enough...to climb into it.
Of course, this being the net, the sound of an engine revving it's engines up would begin to echo across the peaceful area, leading the navi to find herself the target of a massive yellow tank shaped like a Metool's helm. Wheels caked with mud as the virus came roaring in like a bat out of hell, aiming itself at the mecha, passing by a first time from the left, before making a sharp turn in the mud, spinning out briefly before beginning to turn around to Dignity again and revving it's engines up. Meanwhile, a CrazyRazy with a Genin atop it would begin to move in from the east, turning to Dignity as the knife-armed virus raised it's kunai high into the air threateningly, whilst the Mettank in the west of her would begin to rush the navi with little regard for it's own safety.

Mettank V1Mettank V1 (Mettank)
A Mettank is a combination of the Metool, Catack, and Armadillo viruses. It looks a lot like a regular Catack, with several notable differences. The main body of the tank is slightly smaller, and the tank's driver is very clearly an actual Metool, though it doesn't bear its signature weapon. The vehicle itself is colored to match the Metool-driver's Helmet; thus the most basic version is gold with green trim, while more powerful versions will be colored differently to follow suit. The tank itself retains the same basic design as a Catack, except that its triangular treads have been replaced with four almost comically over-sized monster-truck style armored wheels, and its main gun now sports two long, narrow tines jutting out vertically up and down from a point close to the muzzle. These make it look rather like a giant version of a Metool's pickaxe, and the cannon is also now housed in a vertical pivot that allows it to adjust up and down, or even swing with enough force to strike the lower tine to the ground.
Most of the time, the Mettank moves very slowly, and it has been seen to activate a defensive mode wherein the Metool-driver's helmet expands to a jumbo size large enough to cover the entire tank in its protective dome. This does, of course, render the virus utterly blind, and when specifically guarding like this it can no longer attack or move.
It has also been seen, occasionally, to display sudden feats of unexpected speed, where it will rev up, then suddenly ram a target. At these times, its helmet defense covers the tank, though it recedes again as soon as the attack run loses momentum.
Area: All
HP: 260
Element: Null
Primary Attack Damage/Effect: 20 Null + Stun 1 + Blast 2

Secondary Attack Damage/Effect: 20 Null + Piercing + Ground Attack + Wide Attack

The Mettank does not return to its original position at the end of the attack run, but remains where it stopped.
Special: MetGuard: The Metool's Helmet expands rapidly to cover the entire tank in a protective dome. Assumes MetalBody and can hold this guard for any number of actions. Activating the guard takes an action, but deactivating it to attack does not. Mettank cannot move or attack while MetGuard is active, however its tertiary attack ignores this. Attacks from below bypass MetGuard for normal damage.
Special: Slow to move, but can move and dodge while attacking.
Note: MetalBody is identical to IronBody, but does not hamper movement. Non-Break attacks deal 0 damage, and Break attacks deal double.

There was the virus alarm again, high and shrill to herald the incoming Mettank. Even no larger than Dignity's foot, the Metavirus still boasted more than twice the mech's vitality, to say nothing of the firepower it boasted. Phase glanced at the PET screen, still vacant; Vincent must not have heard. Reaching over the control bank, Phase killed the alarm, and...said nothing. Instead, she just cranked the temperature gauge and fired up the ice-maker, just like she'd done what felt like dozen of times by now. She had this. She had this, and she didn't need to be told what to do!
With a roar of gears and steamwhistles, Dignity stepped forward to challenge the Mettank. Rime-water poured from her shoulder down one arm, hyper-chilled to the point of turning thick and sludgy where it clung to the brass plating. Swinging her left grip in a long push, Phase directed the SetIce program the length of a long, arcing throw down the clearing, Dignity pushing out a wave of ice to sweep out and flash-freeze over the muddy ground, aiming for another patch of clear footing farther away. With Dignity's onboard systems translating Phase's intent into tangible effect, the resultant path was wide enough for the brass colossus to walk the length of, and Phase wasted no time in doing just that, pushing off with force enough to set Dignity's feet skidding down the ice at a decent clip.
Another charge of Dignity's engine, and Phase set the reservoir to churning a second time. More rime came gushing out, this time soaking the mech completely in a flash-freezing flood. Ice shattered around Dignity's joints where the mech pivoted and swiveled, leaving small waterfalls of frozen grit behind her where she slid. Her legs slid through a skater's routine, the smooth motion looking frankly bizarre on such a lumbering body. Yet Dignity did not falter, nor stumble. Her great feet ran smooth over the ice, leaving wide trails of friction-ground smoothness behind her where she carved a path around the massive tree's trunk, keeping the tree between herself and the charging Mettank.
Just as Dignity's skid had continued long enough to bait an attacker into leading their shot, Phase wrenched back on one control as hard as she could, while pushing the other as far as it would go. Dignity immediately wheeled into a ninety-degree turn, her feet pushing forward into a hockey stop. As quickly as she'd stopped, Phase jerked her control arms and made Dignity kick forward with her lead foot, spinning the mech in a tight pivot that was helped along by the slick ice underfoot. Her cannon was brought to bear on the more mobile CrazyRazy, tracking the virus where it flew unhindered over the ice. After a moment's consulting of the display screens, Phase jinked her grip up a notch, and focused on the virus' rider. Her free hand made for the gearbox's stick shift.
As Dignity's engine up-shifted, the noise of her massive gear-churning engine pitched up. The clearing filled with the sound of spinning gears, and the whine of steam-pressurized pipes. Phase's hands ran smooth over the controls, her face set in concentration as she aimed with her left hand. Dignity's cannon came up with a gurgle of pipes, while the mech's reservoir churned once more. Aided by the high-pressure steam, the flood of water came out like a bullet, aimed to shoot the Genin off the CrazyRazy's back.

The navi was quick on her mech's feet, sending a frozen line downwards to help evade along the field, the ice solidifying almost immediately along her path as the Mettank would just barely pass by her, spinning about on the mud and ice as it's treads would be caked in the former. The Genin and CrazyRazy would, however, be on her ass as she brought her defenses up, the Genin quick to throw a pair of Kunai at the navi, though only a single hit managed to get through (10) as the CrazyRazy made an attempt on her next with a trio of blasts, though with her movement around the tree she would avoid getting hit and the tree in turn would get a nice little burn mark on it's trunk (10).
The Mettank was not to be forgotten, however, as it would be making it's move around the tree in turn, the front pincers on it's form rising upwards before slamming down at the navi, a shockwave being sent outwards as mud flung from impact, the tree getting another ding in it's trunk, but the intrepid navi and her mech would manage themselves onto solid ground and out of the way before the wave could hit them. This would prompt her to begin her way to powering her mech's systems up even further, leading the Genin to jump from the CrazyRazy as it shot it's allies with a powerful simulant in turn, the Mettank and Genin feeling ever more powerful as the crazed ninja attempted to slash into Phase's mech, though Dignity was faster, blowing it away in a single high pressure shot, sending it flying and scattering it's data to the four winds (60). The mettank would make the cautious action to back off, just a little bit this time, slowly backing up as it stared down the colossus with murderous intent.

The Mettank was not to be forgotten, however, as it would be making it's move around the tree in turn, the front pincers on it's form rising upwards before slamming down at the navi, a shockwave being sent outwards as mud flung from impact, the tree getting another ding in it's trunk, but the intrepid navi and her mech would manage themselves onto solid ground and out of the way before the wave could hit them. This would prompt her to begin her way to powering her mech's systems up even further, leading the Genin to jump from the CrazyRazy as it shot it's allies with a powerful simulant in turn, the Mettank and Genin feeling ever more powerful as the crazed ninja attempted to slash into Phase's mech, though Dignity was faster, blowing it away in a single high pressure shot, sending it flying and scattering it's data to the four winds (60). The mettank would make the cautious action to back off, just a little bit this time, slowly backing up as it stared down the colossus with murderous intent.

Mettank V1Mettank V1 (Mettank)
A Mettank is a combination of the Metool, Catack, and Armadillo viruses. It looks a lot like a regular Catack, with several notable differences. The main body of the tank is slightly smaller, and the tank's driver is very clearly an actual Metool, though it doesn't bear its signature weapon. The vehicle itself is colored to match the Metool-driver's Helmet; thus the most basic version is gold with green trim, while more powerful versions will be colored differently to follow suit. The tank itself retains the same basic design as a Catack, except that its triangular treads have been replaced with four almost comically over-sized monster-truck style armored wheels, and its main gun now sports two long, narrow tines jutting out vertically up and down from a point close to the muzzle. These make it look rather like a giant version of a Metool's pickaxe, and the cannon is also now housed in a vertical pivot that allows it to adjust up and down, or even swing with enough force to strike the lower tine to the ground.
Most of the time, the Mettank moves very slowly, and it has been seen to activate a defensive mode wherein the Metool-driver's helmet expands to a jumbo size large enough to cover the entire tank in its protective dome. This does, of course, render the virus utterly blind, and when specifically guarding like this it can no longer attack or move.
It has also been seen, occasionally, to display sudden feats of unexpected speed, where it will rev up, then suddenly ram a target. At these times, its helmet defense covers the tank, though it recedes again as soon as the attack run loses momentum.
Area: All
HP: 260
Element: Null
Primary Attack Damage/Effect: 20 Null + Stun 1 + Blast 2
Primary Attack Accuracy: B
Primary Attack Description: The Mettank blasts a target with an explosive shell from its main gun, which stuns targets.
Secondary Attack Damage/Effect: 20 Null + Piercing + Ground Attack + Wide Attack
Secondary Attack Accuracy: B
Secondary Attack Description: Slams the pick-tine of its main gun to the ground, causing a large shockwave.
Tertiary Attack Damage/Effect: 20 Null + Group Attack + Breaking + Impact + Movement
Tertiary Attack Accuracy: B
Tertiary Attack Description: The Mettank revs up and rushes one target with sudden speed. It activates its MetGuard when it begins to rush, and deactivates it again as soon as the attack run ends. The Mettank does not return to its original position at the end of the attack run, but remains where it stopped.
Special: MetGuard: The Metool's Helmet expands rapidly to cover the entire tank in a protective dome. Assumes MetalBody and can hold this guard for any number of actions. Activating the guard takes an action, but deactivating it to attack does not. Mettank cannot move or attack while MetGuard is active, however its tertiary attack ignores this. Attacks from below bypass MetGuard for normal damage.
Special: Slow to move, but can move and dodge while attacking.
Note: MetalBody is identical to IronBody, but does not hamper movement. Non-Break attacks deal 0 damage, and Break attacks deal double.
Possible Rewards (Per Virus): TankCannon1, Guard1, ShockWave, IronShell1, LilBomb, WhiteCapsule: 240 HP (Mud) (Buff10) (East of the ElderTree)
