Background/History: Demons of Iron and Violence are servants of the Yama King Lord Mikaboshi, lord of the hell known as "The Wicked City," a bureaucratic and technological nightmare. They are part of his combat arm, and roam the city streets, killing those targets Lord Mikaboshi has marked for elimination.
Personality/Motivation: For the most part Demons of Iron and Violence are driven by a simple desire to destroy. However, they aren't mindless engines of destruction, and usually have a specific target in mind went sent on a mission. On the other hand, subtlety is beyond them, and they will gladly and deliberately cause massive amounts of collateral damage in the course of terminating their target.
Quote: The sound of gunfire and something wet happening to the demon's foe(s).
Powers/Tactics: With no use for subtlety, Demons of Iron and Violence tend to take the direct approach, pursuing their target with no regard for stealth or secrecy. Once they find their target they will engage it immediately, hosing down the area with their assault rifle (or other weapons), and then engaging what's left in hand-to-hand combat until that target (and everything else around it) is either dead or dying. Once finished with its mission, the Demon will leave.
To allow his Demons to find any and all foes, Mikaboshi has given them incredible senses, allowing them to detect ghosts, chi constructs (such as certain forms of undead and magicians), and limited precognitive abilities. Coupled with their size, strength, and weaponry, this makes a Demon of Iron and Violence an almost unstoppable hunter.
Appearance: A Demon of Iron and Violence stands around nine feet tall with a broad build. Their bodies are covered by bits of armor plate, while cables and tubes run from one part of the body to the other. Over this will goes clear plastic rain coats, goggles, and similar protective gear. Normally, these demons armed with huge assault rifles, although other weapons, such as flame-throwers, grenade launchers, and mechanical rippers, are possible.
Designer's Notes: The Demon of Iron and Violence (I love that name!) is adapted from the White Wolf Kindred of the East source book The 1000 Hells. Characteristics have been derived using the conversion notes given in The Ultimate Mentalist. The values for skills were derived from the idea that 1 dot = 8-, 2 dots = 11-, and each additional dot as a +1 to the roll. Powers were derived from Robert Harrison's conversion notes for World of Darkness to HERO.
The character sheet see here is meant to be a generic version of the original character, with most Vampire specific rules removed. It should only be considered a template, and other Demons of Iron and Violence can have differing powers, skills, and weapons.
