Fiction:Unified Alliance of Enlightenment/Olympians/Breaker Dragons

"Blood for the Fire Dragon! Skulls for the Empress's Throne! Death to all our enemies!"

- Rad-Eaters Battle Cry

Vanara super soldiers of the UAE, the Rad-Eaters are composed of several semi-sapient sub-species of Vanara enhanced by the gene-seed of their Arhat Lucy. The Rad-Eaters excel at siege warfare, digging trenches and building barricades. When the time has come to come out of their forticfications and deliver death to their foes, they tear through enemies, savagely and without remorse unleashing powerful attacks from their nuclear weaponry. While very loyal to the UAE, they are distrusted by the other Olympian chapters and have learned to rely on themselves since they don't feel like they can rely on others.

Sub-Species
Vanaris Hecate= A sub species native to Worldship Leviathan, they live in packs near the shore were they scavenge on washed up corpses. They are the most primitive sub species. They are sometimes kept as pets.

Vanaris Helios= Native to Worldship Ziz, they live in small clans on the slopes of the plateau were they feed on small rodents and birds. They are also sometimes kept as pets.

Vanara Atlas= As sub species native to Worldship Behemoth, they live in caves in small family units throughout the great dessert. They are the most intelligent, but not full sapient.

Gene-Seed
Taken from the giant, cyborg creature Lucy, the Rad-Eaters gene-seed is strange simmering white substance. In the gene-seed strange colorful wisps float through that could be best described as innocence and reacts violently to corrupt substances. The only being capable of absorbing the gene-seed are innocent beings and thus only works on Rad-Eaters(with a few exceptions) as the formerly unintelligent beasts have no way of understanding right from wrong in any sense. It also works on females since Lucy is female and grants those females who do take it psychokinetic fields.

Culture
With the reputation they carry one would expect the Rad-Eaters to have fierce, war-like, martial culture, rather they have a very laid back fun loving approach to life outside the battle field. Rad-Eaters can often be found sleeping, playing, or sniffing around under the tables in the barracks of the other Chapters(those who will let them in) looking for scraps of dropped food or putting on cute, starving, puppy faces in the hopes of being fed. Rad-Eaters also enjoy hunting, the bigger and more deadly the better, and large potions of the entire chapter will band together to take down some fearsome beast.

Worship of Jura
The Rad-Eaters are incredibility devout followers of the Vanara Beats Jura, the Fire Dragon. They prey to the Beast before battle and offer up every kill to the Fire Dragon to satisfy his relentless hunger for the enemies of the Vanara Empire and the UAE. The Rad-Eaters see the Empress Besta as the daughter of Jura and so are immensely protective of her. The Rad-Eaters do worship other gods as well, Hoorangiir from Ugandal theology is quiet popular, and some even view the Peacebringers Freddie Mercury as a divine messenger of some sort.

Rituals
The Rad-Eaters have many rituals that revolve around warfare. Upon going into battle Rad-Eaters carve a sallow scar into their flesh, if they are victorious they let it heal naturally creating a red stripe, if defeated they rub dirt into it creating a black strip. Rad-Eaters also paint images onto their armor or tattoo them on their body, construction chevrons and radiation symbols are the norm for all Rad-Eaters, but also the symbol for what kind of troop they are, and a symbol that represents their name. They also collect the heads of their defeated enemies, the heads however rarely last long most be used as playthings and chew toys.

Ranks
Rad-Eaters are divided into six ranks each recognized by the part of Jura they have painted on their armor.
 * General Troops - Jura's Back Claw
 * Commaders - Jura's Front Claw
 * Females (such as Psychokinetics) - Jura's Tail
 * Devourers - Jura's Fangs

Sonic Trooper= Once a looked down on massively, the sonic troopers have since gained more acceptance from their fellows with the use of musical bands such as Rammstein, Eisbreacher, and others. They play a very different role than the sonic troops of other Chapters. They act as saboteurs, planting easily hidden sonic bombs that then go off blasting apart enemies structures and killing enemies troops with the continuous concussive waves. On the battle field they play less of a combat role and instead use their music to whip the Rad-Eaters up into a battle frenzy and terrify enemies with the loud booming aggressive sounding vocals.
 * Use - Sabotage, Physiological Warfare
 * Weapons - Sonic Blaster, Blastmaster, Sonic Bombs

Psychokinetic Trooper=
 * Weapons - Psychokinetic Field, Railgun, Force Halberds
 * Defense - AIC (Active Inertia Canceler)

Veichles
While the Rad-Eaters despise ground based veichles, they have no problem with air based veichles seeing them as streamlined graceful combat machines.

War Beasts
The Rad-Eaters also make use of various other forms of beasts to bolster their ranks.

Cabraen= Viscous blood sucking creatures, Cabraen resemble a hairless hyena with large bat like wings, glowing red eyes, and toothless mouth except for two blood sucking fangs. Cabraen fly or charge across the terrain zeroing in on their victims, once they get close enough they pounce unleashing a sulfuric yellow spray that eats away at it's target's skin. The Cabraen then sinks it's fangs into feed draining it's prey of blood.

Cambion= Cambion are some of the most feared and despised Rad-Eater war beasts to scour the battle field. Cambion fly on bat like wings seeking out targets, when they find one they swoop down before carrying them away and draining them of vital fluids with their fangs. Corpses are then dropped or used to decorate the Cambion's nests as sinister ornaments.

Gorgoids= Saber fanged mammal like reptiles the size of rhinos, Gorgoids hunt in packs or alone. Incredibly tenacious Gorgoids will never give up the hunt and will pursue their prey across an entire planet. Their armored hides are extremely tough, indeed it take quite a lot to take down a Gorgoid never mind a pack of them.

Sprarax= Terrifying creatures with cat like bodies wrapped in a black husk, glossy humanoid faces, scorpion like tails, and raven like wings, used to guard important places. Sprarax can speak, but to not understand what they are saying merely repeating at random words they have heard in their eerie hissing voices. They eaisly blend into the shadows of the Rad-Eater's trenches and barricades pouncing on unsuspecting intruders and ripping them to pieces.

Devourers
Vice Jaws guards composed of Vanaris Atlases and lead by the terrifying Carnage. They are armed with Chem-Cannons as well as chainweaponry, mantrap-headed whips, barbed flails and other fearsome weapons that can behead or "devour" enemies. They are fanaticly loyal to their Archon and have little care for their own lives

Conquering Five
It is dangerous for other species to become Rad-Eaters, for if the gene seed doesn't integrate properly the potential Olympian could die of radiation poisoning or in extreme cases a psychokinetic field will form inside them and rip them apart as it expands outward. Also if one fails the Rad-Eater initiation can be eaten. As a result there are only five members from other species called the Conquering Five. They go by code names as to keep their identity secret and any loved ones of theirs safe.

Vice Jaw=

Caraeveus †= "The cowards! The fools! They hide in metal boxes! We must take away their metal boxes!"

Caraeveus was one of the most known members of the Rad-Eaters, not only for his sheer hatred towards the Steelrollers, but also due to his near-insanity that the merciless nature of siege warfare has brought upon him.
 * Name - Caraeveus
 * Species - Vanara helios
 * Role - Destroyer Trooper Commander

Caraveveus started out as any other Vanara Helios of the Rad-Eaters, but soon gained an personal preference for hand-to-hand combat, and started to disdain the use of vehicles. On one particular battle against the Tyranny and her allies, he was tasked with overseeing the construction of a massive minefield while his close friend Vice Jaw was in charge of the command overall. However, despite their hard work, their positions were being overrun. Then, an distress call was made, one only answered by the Steelrollers. They dropped behind the Rad-Eater's line to save the amount of their own troops lost, and then had their vehicles plough forwards, not only destroying most of the Rad-Eaters' bunkers but also bombing Caraveveus' minefields in order to progress further onwards. Caraeveus was outraged by this, and in his first fit of near-insanity, branded the Steelroller's vehicles "metal boxes" and refusing to enter a ground-based vehicle ever since. Over time, he became part of the Conquering Five, and gained a fierce rivalry with the Steelroller who had ordered the bombing of his beloved minefield, a Force Commander going by the name of Indrak Baldarin.

Eventually, the Steelrollers and their closest brothers, the Iron Skulls came under the influence of the cybernetic Bachyeon and Grox, and plotted to betray the UAE while dealing as much damage to the Olympian chapters that distrusted them (witch was the majority). When an system on the outskirts of Federation territory came under control of an Bachyeon beacon located in their main city, and launched rebellion, the Steelrollers saw this as the perfect time, since Vice Jaw and Lucy were away. With their as-treasonous brothers the Iron Skulls, and the loyalist legions known as the Plague Sentinels, the Brave Burners and the Rad-Eaters, the Steelrollers began their assault. Knowing the steelrollers were the best tacticans of them all, Caraveveus grudgingly left overall command to them. The city was divided into 5 main targets: The palace and nearby forges with would be targeted by the Brave Burners, the tunnel/trench network east of the city with was the target of the Rad-eaters, the bunkers west of the city with were the target of the Steelrollers, the underground with would be targeted by the Iron Skulls, and the beacon area with would be targeted by the Plague Sentinels.

What Caraeveus did not know, was that the bunkers and underground had anti-viral protection while the rest hadn't. When the Steelrollers and Iron Skulls had claimed their positions, they suddenly unleashed an extremely potent virus that only the Plague Sentinels could withstand. However, the virus also created a lot of incendiary gasses, and with a single lance of energy, the whole city was aflame, burning the Plague Sentinels as well. The Brave Burners were in turn unharmed, but most had already been felled by the baleful virus unleashed minutes before. Once the firestorm died down as well, the Steelrollers and Iron skulls came out of their air-tight fortification s and started to scour for survivors to kill, while drawing an Cyber Collective fleet near. Little they knew, but Caraeveus and his Rad-Eaters had survived as well, as did approximately 1/3th of Plague Sentinels who had hidden from the firestorm in time, and 1/3th of the Brave Burned who whom the virus had missed and who of course had been unaffected by the firestorm.

The Plague Sentinels and Brave Burners had their Ahrats with them, and under their leadership, managed to ward off the assaults of their treasonous brothers without extreme losses, but the Rad-Eaters were not so lucky. After warning Vice Jaw and Lucy, they descended into a terrible berzerking madness, pouring out of the tunnels they had taken refuge in, heedless of danger, and clashed against the Steelroller's vehicles and mechanizations en masse. Caraeveus himself led these assaults, and managed to hold the Rad-Eater's positions for quite some time, despite the fact that the Rad-Eaters had deployed without vehicles. Just as Caraeveus believed he had warded off the Steelroller's attack completely, a fresh wave of drop pods rained down on top of their positions, and from them more Steelroller Olypians emerged, led by Caraeveus' greatest rival, Indrak Baldarin. After a fierce duel between the 2 (and much insults from Caraeveus' side), Indrak finally crippled Caraeveus, retreated, had Caraeveus watch helplessly as his hated "metal boxes" pulverized his closest under their treads and missiles, and then crushed the Rad-Eater's captain by calling down a drop pod right on him.

Scorn= "Ya betta watch out, cause I'mma red-furred, hot-blooded, shotgun-wielding, radioactive, bat outta hell!"


 * Name - Scorn
 * Species - Vanara helios
 * Role - Scout Commander

Scornis the Rad-Eater's top scout captain, notable to be one of the few female Olympians ever. How exactly she became enhaced is unknown, since Olympian Gene-Seed normally only works with males, opposed to Vahallan Gene-Seed with only (normally) works with females. Sister to the now deceased captain Caraevus, she seeks revenge against the Steelrollers and force commander Indrak Baldarin.

Daring, adventurous, and some might say crazy, Scorn is one of the best scouts of the Rad-Eaters, famed for her ability to appear anywere before shooting her enemies to bits. Her own rounds are filled with a special type of blood coagulant that causes the target's arteries to fill with so many clots that their blood stops flowing altogether, resulting in a slow painful death, there is also no known way to neutralize the coagulant and it causes so many clots that any sort of surgery to remove them would be futile. Like her bother, Scorn is well know for her borderline suicidal tactics.

After the conflict in which the Steelrollers and Iron Skulls rebelled occurred, Scorn was one of the few surviving Rad-Eaters on-planet, she was found injured and exhausted by Vice Jaw and Lucy later and manged to tell them the story of what had happened, before passing out. Scorn is romantically interested is Vice Jaw, but knows that both of them must put their own personal demons to rest before they go that far, which will only happen with the Steelroller's destruction.

Carnage= "Me Carnage, me crush you, me smash you, me rip you, me break you, and me squash you like a bug!"


 * Name - Carnage
 * Species - Vanaris Atlas
 * Role - Devourer Commander

The leader of Vice Jaw's body guards the Devourers, Carnage is a rather infamous Vanaris Atlas to say the least. With his blood red fur scorched black in some places, Carnage charges into battle, completely berserk. He is fanatically loyal to Vice Jaw and would give his life for his Archon should it be required.

Toxic= "Once upon a time I was a normal Vanaris Helios, I joined the Rad-Eaters, I was wounded and then some traitor of the Shadowed Claw mixed the gene-seed of my chapter with some corrupt version of that of the Plague Senitels and Peacebringers. Now listen up, we all know that various gene-seed can be mixed as new chapters are at times created this way, but that Darkling-serving bastard added some of his own mutations to the mix. Thus mutating me into this mess I am now."


 * Name - Toxic
 * Species - Vanaris Helios
 * Role - Sonic Troop Commander

The reason why Olympian gene-seed should not be mixed with other Olympian gene-seed by a Darkling Servant and then mutated, Toxic is a bipedal mutant abomination of a Vanaris Helios, with never-healing deep scars all across his body, a tongue that constantly hangs out of his mouth, and blistered skin that is a sickly lime-yellow in color. Toxic, before adopting that name, was wounded in the battle that occurred during the betrayal of the Steelrollers and the Iron Skulls. He was rescued by a medic trooper corps of the Plague Senitels, and since no Rad-Eater gene-seed was directly available, they healed him with a bit of their own. This worked out well, and many wondered what would happen if they added pieces of the other chapter's gene-seed to him, hoping to transform him into the ultimate Olympian.

This may have had a chance at succeeding had a Fallen Olympian of the Shadowed Claws not gotten word of this. Peacebringer gene-seed has always had a reputation of being extremely unstable, and the traitor was therefore easily able to poison it with a Darkling virus that caused it to mutate uncontrollably. However, it was still implanted by the unaware Medic Troopers. The result transformed the Rad-Eater Olympian into the monsterus, half insane, Neue Deutsche Härte loving, abomination known as Toxic. Toxic is one of the few Rad-Eater Sonic Troopers, and their commander, passing his love of bands like Rammstein, Eisbrecher, Die Krupps, Megaherz, etc, down to them.

The Rad-Eaters used to look down on Sonic Troopers, and as such the Sonic troopers they have lived in isolation, with only Toxic being generally accepted due to this combat prowess and having introduce music the Rad-Eaters enjoy. Especially since the music of bands such as Rammstein has proven especially useful at whipping the Rad-Eaters into battle frenzy quicker, gaining sonic troops better acceptance as a whole. Despite his insane and violent nature, Toxic believes that he must protect the innocent and becomes almost inconsolable when he finds dead non-combatants after a battle, especially children.

Anti= "Tell you a secret...I don't like you."


 * Name - Anti
 * Species - Vanaris Atlas
 * Role - Attrition Troops Commander

The pale white, almost completely silent Vanaris Atlas commander of the Rad-Eaters Attrition Troops. Anti cares about no one and nothing, having no emotional connections, meaning that he has no problems in sending troops to their death or even himself. Extremely underhanded and not afraid of playing the game dirty, Anti has no problems in starving enemy civilians to death and fully believes in the justification of collateral damage. When in combat, Anti creeps up on his foes before unleashing the full force of his death spewer leaving them writing in a cloud of radioactive death. Anti's extreme asocial behavior comes from the fact that he has lost to many comrades in battle and so refuses to care about those under his command so that he will always be able to make the correct logical decisions instead of ones ruled by his emotions. Due to this, he acts as a voice of reason to the other Rad-Eaters to some extend

Carrie= "My vengeance upon you is at hand!"

Carrie the leader of the Rad-Eaters psychokinetic troops is one of the few female Olympians out there. The Rad-Eaters use females because for one the idea of gender role means nothing to them, second only females can generate a psychokinetic field, and third their own Arhat is female. Carrie is quiet distant person who does not socialize well with others and has few friends. On the battle field though she becomes a nearly unstoppable engine of destruction ripping enemies apart with her 4 meters long field.
 * Name - Carrie
 * Species - Vanaris Hecate
 * Role - Psychokinetic Troop Commander

Plastic Blue= "Hello! How are... FUCK OFF!!!."

Plastic Blue or Plastic for short is a female Tech Troop Commander to the Rad-Eaters. Plastic is named for her blue plastoid armor fused to her skin, she is an incredibility skilled hacker and also quite a capable sniper. Plastic is usually calm and pilot, some might even say sweet, only to turn into a raving mad lunatic who will bite your head off at the slightest provocation.
 * Name - Plastic Blue
 * Species - Vanaris Helios
 * Role - Tech Troop Commander

Vergissmeinnicht= "If you survive you will forget me not!"
