Sentinels

'Sentinel' is the name dubbed to mechas piloted by forces, their likeness having been taken from creatures that used to roam the earth before it was ruined. Designed to fit that specific animals strengths and qualities, however the line between fantasy monster and real creature have become blurred.

They appeared not long after the Battle of Seoul, seemingly an attempt to scare off the Generals should they return to cause harm.

They now run wild in the wilderness outside of the main cities, officials call this being on 'roam mode'. They attack anything and everything in sight and are fuelled by vastly diminishing resources. It is suspected that their reserves of food, water, fuel and adrenaline are being topped up by outside forces, however this is heavily debated due to how dangerous doing this can be.

It is a near suicide mission to go against a Sentinel without proper firepower, this is what caused the Silverback mission a few years from current time, where a Sentinel ambushed ROK scavengers and had to be rescued by an Elite. The incident gained even more traction after the Sentinels successful takedown and rescue by said Elite with minor casualties. ROK now questions their usefulness.
