Battleborn number 41 is La Rosa, the bitter rival of El Dragon.

Name: La Rosa. The egotistical and cynical La Rosa is a long-time rival of El Dragon because she has lost dozens of times to him due to her cheating in the ring whenever possible. Fed up with losing to him, she left the LLC and joined the Jennerit to perfect her dirty fighting style. Rendain was impressed with her no holds bar fighting style and recommended her for Sustainment. La Rosa declined and chose to earn it the hard way, through fighting in the Jennerit’s gladiatorial fighting pits like Caldarius had done. Now sustained, La Rosa has improved herself through genetic manipulation and cybernetic augmentation. When El Dragon lost to the Magnus ISIC, she left the Jennerit to help El Dragon in his recovery process, and to rub the loss in his face. All in all, she had great respect for El Dragon and now that the universe is coming to an end, they have agreed to a rematch once they save Solus. Let the universe’s greatest wrestling tag team begin!

Battleborn number 46 is called Prim Eval, a Rogue who is stuck with an exo skin permanently fused to her body, but fights for the Eldrid.

However, while en route to the drop off point in the Detritus Ring, Dukatha was attacked…by the exo skin itself. It turns out the suit had been created with a mind of its own.

When his home star was darkened by the Varelsi, Mac Awes and most of his people evacuated their home planet after it succumbed to the Darkening. For a while, his people drifted through space as a collection of refugee ships until they came upon the planet Ekkunar and were taken in by the Eldrid.

As the chief of the U.P.R.’s manufacturing corps Orger was constantly tasked with providing refined materials for the U.P.R’s constant war against the Varelsi. Orger is a miracle worker despite all the pressure the U.P.R. places on him and his associates to fill orders and provide for their ever growing demands. One day he found a bunch of his foremen selling new guns and armor fresh from his assembly line. They were selling to a bunch Rogues who worked for Big Pueblo.

Name: Angiel, the Cyber Seraph. Angiel is a Magnus built to serve in one of the many care practices for Magnuses when they experience cybernetic related maladies or need a tune up. The shutting down of the Magna Carta affected Angiel just like any other Magnus, but it had the opposite effect. Instead, Angiel’s drive to save lives became her only directive. She would spend days trying to save a patient before realizing they were already gone. But she still tried desperately to save anyone she could, even diverting resources that were meant for other patients in critical care. Eventually she was expelled from every major hospital in the Arc Fleet and had nowhere to turn. Angiel decided to open up a free clinic for any cyborgs, humans or Magnuses who couldn’t afford the incredibly expensive fees of medical care.

Project Carrion succeeded and many subject were created. However, during the third uprising of the Thralls led by Attikus, the labs for Project Carrion were discovered and many of the Carrion subjects were destroyed. It was when Attikus was mourning the deaths of his fellow Thrall when multiple pieces of different Carrion subjects joined together to create the being called Carrion, a rage fueled monstrosity with a hive mind.

Here’s my fifty ninth character a transgender hero where a brother and sister fight over control of the same body. Here’s Rosswale (male) and Waleross (female).

Name: Rosswale and Waleross. Rosswale is what is known as a transaar, a species that is capable of switching its gender at will to suit its needs in combat or for more tactful situations. Ross, the male side, is a crass and egocentric nutcase who would rather claw your eyes out with his bio-gauntlet Shadowcutter than have a polite conversation. Wale, the female side, is caring and compassionate, and she would much rather prefer to have a civil conversation than rip your heart out with her bio-weapon Woodsbane. Despite being constantly at odds with one another Rosswale and Waleross are a powerful duo who stood out amongst their people as capable warriors. When their home star fell to the Varelsi, they evacuated with the help of U.P.R. and headed straight to Ekkunar with them. After the U.P.R. left Ekkunar, Rosswale and Waleross stayed behind and joined the Vigilant as multi-roled specialists capable of filling roles on the battlefield which most soldiers were incapable of fulfilling. Now that they have joined the Battleborn, Rosswale and Waleross are more committed than ever to saving Solus from destruction, however they still disagree on everything. You know, a split personality?

Rosswale’s Shadowcutter Blast has increased range on the initial burst and his shield reflects 50% of damage absorbed back at the attacker.

This ability lasts for only 15 seconds or when both of their abilities have been used.

Talent: Transaar Bond: Rosswale and Waleross are always fighting to have control of their shared body, even in battle. Rosswale’s Shadowcutter collects energy and increases their health regeneration the lower his shield’s health is, up to 14 additional health regen per second.
