Fictional biography
Attack Drone was once a proud and feared warrior, fighting for his leader's belief that peace can only be achieved through tyranny. After facing the nemesis, he fell victim to something worse than death. The nemesis recreated his exo-structure into a six wheeled buggy. A shell, which is not capable of transforming any more. Now, known as the Attack Drone, he lures in victims to be his new master, be it enemies, or former allies. Once his master is done with the victims, Attack Drone disposes the dead remains in a place he wishes he could be in.
