Authors Note: Hey there my readers, yet another tech spec for Kuro's story "Imperfections". Also, for those following that story, the poll on Kuro's page is in regards to whether or not the oneshot story I posted last month "Shattered Boundaries" should become canon to his story, but anyway let's get to the cool bit shall we.
Disclaimer: Alvin and the Chipmunks belongs to Ross B. and Fox Studios, and the story of "Imperfections: The Twist in Time" belongs to Kuro Rakka Shimo.
The Tech of Imperfections: The Redeemer
Of all the creations that Dr. Bell made, this is possibly his most powerful by far both in how it works, and what it can do. This is the Redeemer, the primary mode of transportation used by Dr. Bell to get from place to place, as well as serve as a mobile base of sorts. Visibly, the craft looks like an old pirate ship about 170 feet in length, though it has no sails and is made of metal, the bow of the ship itself having a "jaw" of sorts that acts to grab onto oncoming threats. Despite the nautical look of the Redeemer, this ship is actually a type of aircraft, using a combination of jet propulsion and anti-gravity levitation to stay airborne. For weaponry, the Redeemer has a pair of triple barreled rotary laser cannons at the bow of the ship, along with a larger version of the Beasts kinetic spike cannons on the sides, about twenty of them per side. The interesting thing to note in this aircraft is that the entire hull of the ship is made up of interlocking armor plates, as well as having a pair of wings like a harrier jet to aid in turning, though that isn't the half of what the Redeemer is capable of.
Remember that jaw-like structure at the bow, well there's a reason for that being there other than catching airborne threats, and it's simply an amazing feat of technological prowess. At his will, Dr. Bell is able to make the Redeemer shift itself into what must be the largest Beast in his entire army, the size of it being comparable to that of a three story building, the wings aligning with the forearms of the titanic beast and forming blades to slash at enemies, while the cannons from the bow of the ship are repositioned to the shoulders. The jets used when in ship mode are still usable, aiding in running, as well as the anti-gravity devices ending up in the feet of the mechanical giant, this having a few effects, the first being to act as a muffling system when the machine moves, in essence making it move near silently, as well as being used as a type of weapon, giving Dr. Bell the ability to literally shoot at enemies with air, concentrating it to the point of being deadly on impact. That jaw at the bow of the ship, it shifts onto a neck and is joined onto the main control station of the ship itself, forming a head for the gigantic monster. To top this all off, a large tail is extended to aid in balance, and is tipped in a spiked ball similar to a mourning star, the spikes able to be shot in a way to mimic a shrapnel grenade.
If this wasn't enough, Dr. Bell gave the Redeemer enough armor to withstand a direct impact from a missile, this being due to a combination of typical armor plating as well as a weak, but effective, energy based force field. In total, the Redeemer is possibly Dr. Bell's most complex creations, only second to his time machine.
There we go, the Redeemer in all its glory. Now, as stated above, the poll is in regards to if the story of "Shattered Boundaries" should be made canon for "Imperfections: The Twist in Time", but before you go and vote on the poll, go read the story in question first, you'll need to in order to understand what Kuro is thinking on adding to "Imperfections" but anyway, since I'm essentially done here, leave your comments/reviews in the box below, and I'll see you all in the next update I post here. By the way, as of the posting of this chapter, I am now 23 years old, that's right, it's my birthday :D so if you want, feel free to wish me a happy birthday in the box below. and as I always say, Kuro if you're reading this, I hope you liked it friend :)
