Over his many years of
competition, Shirro has
developed unrivaled
power, yet retains a
youthful sence of humor.
Shirro is the Head of Public Relations for all of WAR. It was his idea
to have this contest for the media coverage. He believes that if the
event is popular enough, they may find a new business for the robots:
entertainment. Though Shirro knows much about what happens deep within
WAR, he never takes things too seriously and just hopes things will work
themselves out. Those who have seen him in martial arts tournaments
agree that he is both incredibly strong and tactful, always smiling and
shaking your hand after he beats you.
Single players quotes:
A girl of your beauty shouldn't be so troubled.
My peace will come after this battle is won.
And now the little boy will go to school...
Little boy? I am twice your better and will prove it, now.
Do you think that your choice in 'bots was right?
Guess we're gonna have to see.
Your father was a good man. Things will work themselves out soon.
As soon as i get my hands on your boss.
Do you use turtle wax on that head?
Nah. I use Mr. Kleen.
Hope you don't mind a few dents in that 'bot.
If you fight like you did in your last match, I am sure to win.
Well, IB! Long time no see...
This is serious, friend. I must defeat you.
Just what are you, girl?
The last thing your miserable company would expect.
Though i admire you, I must have this victory!
But i'm afraid i have other plans...
I know many of your weaknesses. You can forfeit now, boy.
You know nothing.
What are you doing here? Oh well, the more the merrier.
Well well, I'm suprised to see you here, also.

You awaken in your own body. For a few moments,
you come down from the adrenaline high you've
experienced. Your body seems so frail now. The
team is already celebrating, and you welcome
their congratulations.
The time to party is short-lived. Your mind
takes in the last few hours events and the
knowledge that an entire moon is now yours yo
command.
"Wait a sec!" comes a paniking voice from a
vidmonitor. "Everyone! Listen!" he turns up
the volume and everyone in the room is quiet.
"...was found dead today. We repeat, Hans
Kreissack's body was found at 18:00 hours
tonight in a garbage bin outside the Nova
labratories."
Everyone is holding their breath as the news
reporter continues. "We have been handled this
notice that was to be read when Kreissack won
the fight tonight. It reads:"
"Notice to all humans: A new day has begun!
Nova, a project started by WAR., will give new
life! This process can take a human brain and
place it inside a robotic body."
"What you saw tonight was me, Hans Kreissack,
directly connected to a new form of H.A.R. The
human race will now see its ultimate evolution!"
The announcer lays down the digipad containing
the message. "Tragically, all the scientists close
to the project have been killed in a fire which
broke out shortly after the last match tonight.
All records of the Nova project were destroyed."
A crew member switches the display off. "Well,
looks like we'll be lookin' for a new boss
now..."

A human brain inside a robot? You think of the
possibilities. How wonderfull could it be to be
inside that metal frame permanently? How
powerfull?
But look what that power did to Kreissack. You
wonder what it might do to you...
You file that thought in the darker recesses of
your mind and turn your attention to the
future. A future where H.A.R. arena fighting is
a sport instead of a simple publicity stunt.
Since this wouldn't involve damage to living
creatures, it could easily get past the world
peace organisation.
Yes! A new sport! Plus the money and fame will
go to you! Eventually, so will WAR...
