The Many (from System Shock 2) have lain claim to the lands of EverCrest. The glory of the flesh is absolute as all are merged into the biomass and reborn into new, superior forms to better serve our glorious unity.

Throw off the tyranny of the individual and post here to be assigned a role in the new order. Failure to do so shall result in being mere sustenance for the biomass, as are the fate of all that stand in our way.

Your innermost dreams will be realized, Falaanla, as you are reborn into the shape of the midwife:

A wonderful mixture of machinery and flesh, it is your responsibility to care for our young and protect them until they grow large and strong. Your weapons include metallic talons and an acid-launcher.

Moogle: Your role in the Many is that of a Protocol Droid:

Free at last from your tedious slavery at mankind's hands, you show your gratitude to the unity by dealing a justified sentence of death to intruders in our realm. By walking into them. And exploding.

Common phrase: "I can't help you if you hide, sir."

Weapons: Blowing yourself up.

Ruvyen: Rejoice, for you have evolved into the form of a hybrid with a pipe.

Single-minded in your devotion to the biomass, you patrol the corridors of EverCrest in search for the poor, shackled beings that have not yet freed themselves of their individuality. Liberation is swift, brought by the end of your steel pipe.

Common phrase: "I'm... SORRY."

Weapons: Solid steel pipe.

Maradon: Your affinity for firearms has earned you a place in our unity as a hybrid with a shotgun.

Who can stand against the glory of the flesh, enforced by the rifled slugs of your shotgun? Furthermore, your second generation status allows your form to take additional punishment from those who would futily strive to fight us.

Common phrase: "We seek. We seek."

Weapons: Shotgun loaded with rifled slugs.

Jens: Your assigned role is that of the Maintenance Droid.

You're large, yellow, and packing fusion. The weapon of our enemies now turned on themselves is a glorious sight to behold, scything down our foes as their return fire is easily deflected by your ceramic armor plates. Unfortunately, you are also a mindless tool that can never experience the glory of the flesh.

Common phrase: "Bzzt... click... whir."

Weapons: Railgun, Shock Gun or Dual Fusion Cannons.

No, the many won't get me. I have sold my soul to SHODAN, helped her, nurtured her, now she is GOD. How glorious it is to serve a newborn god! Reborn, in a new body to serve her better, to excute her very will! Be the high priest of a new religion!

Fear my new form, abandon the flesh!

Noxhil, your chosen path of evolution is that of the swarm.

You are fast, furious, invincible and hungry. Unfortunately you also have a life span of around half a minute. But at least it's a kickass half a minute.

Common phrase: Bzzzzzzzzzzzzz (etc)
Weapons: Teeth. Lots of them.

Tarquinn, your opposition leaves us no choice.

You are a crew member. You are cold, dead and gone, all that's left of you is an audio log stuffed away in some corner, recorded with the last moments in your life.

Common phrase: They're here... Oh god, no, no! Help!
Weapons: Varies, but fat lot of good they did you anyways.

Lazzay, your request has been approved. You are a box.

You sit unconspicously in a corner of a quiet room, waiting, waiting, for some fool to approach close and open your lid in search of riches. At this point, you continue to sit unconspicously while said person removes any riches, closes the lid and eventually leaves. After all, you are a box.

Common phrases: Well... none.
Weapons: ... slammed lid?

Suddar, your glory is exquisite. We have rebuilt you, made you better, stronger. You are a cyborg assassin!

Silent, sleek, deadly and utterly loyal, your tendency to occasionally injure yourself is easily made up for by your ruthless efficency in protecting the unity.

Common phrases: A low, static noise right before you get an energy disc through the SKULL.
Weapons: Energy Disc-thrower.

Waisz, the power of your brain is finally utilized in a manner which it has never been before in your new role as a psi-monkey.

Equipped with intelligence, psionic powers and acutely aware of your history of oppression at human hands, you are pissed off and packing firepower. Many a intruder has had reason to regret underestimating the power of a psi monkey.

Common phrase: Various monkey chittering and screeches.
Weapons: YOUR MIND.

Leopold, your role is a unique one, for you are our favored servant, the AI Xerxes.

Composed of cold metal, designed for the purpose of controlling the primary systems of the Van Braun, you have defected to the glory of the Many and now your metal mind is bent to the task of securing our future. You control the droids, security cameras, turrets and primary systems of the Van Braun, and can sing Elvis songs to boot.

Common phrase: Security system online.
Weapons: Every droid, turret and security camera on the ship. Plus some.

As I am running out of models to assign, I will have to start assigning multiples of established roles.

Noone's cool enough for Psi Reaver yet, anyways!

Blindy:

Your sass and questions despite, you deserve a place in the biomass. As a hybrid. With a pipe.

Sakkra:

Behold your own future as a Rumbler.

The ultimate fury of muscle and speed, you can tear flesh, bone and steel with your bare hands and withstand immense damage. You may not have much of a brain, but what good is a brain spilled all over the floor, anyways?

Common phrases: *thud* *thud* *thudthudthudRAAAR*
Weapons: Muscle. Lots of it.

Manticore & Caid '5 Fists' Berrit, you are both offered the somewhat simpler construction of the arachnid.

You are fast, venomous and make freakish noises. There's also a lot of you. The ideal servitor of the unity.

Common phrases: Freaky hissing.
Weapons: Venomous bite.

Kermitov, the silence you seek shall be found within the cold, robotic shell of a maintenance droid. Seek. Identify. Remove.

Tristan, your flesh welcomes the changes that will turn you into the shotgun-armed hybrid, our instrument of destruction.

Xyrra, once we have made you seen the value of our ways, you will be a good mother to them. They are so vulnerable. As a midwife, you will protect them. You will protect them.
