Earl, I just got my hands on the file for that Fed we ran into the other night. It turns out that beast actually was what Franks told us, No wonder Special Task Force Unicorn wants him swept under the rug, he used to be one of them.
The file says he was a scientist by the name of Doctor David Viper. He was part of some sort of braintrust in New York. Worked on something called Project Rhino. Apparently he created a form of living armor that made the wearer nearly indestructible. Seems the first suit was given to some lunatic who went on to a life of crime, but the doc kept the second suit for himself. That is when Strickland recruited him to S.T.F.U. Seems he liked the idea of having a monster that wasn't actually a monster. Anyway, remember when the old ones first breached in Neechy Bottom? The feds captured a speciman of some kind and they wanted to see how it reacted to various types of Native tissues. Turns out it REALLY liked the living armor. So like usual, we are stuck cleaning up after the MCB and STFU. Cause we needed a half old one, half living weapon hybrid running around Alabama. Milo says he has something that might take him out. I'll let you know in the morning.
