The Faceless – Berserker Alpha

Today we are presenting the first non-chapter update, featuring the Faceless Berserker Alpha renders.

“There are some things, you can never forget. Things, that won’t let you sleep for long weeks. Once you see them… You will understand that. They are different. Somehow much more terrifying than Demons. We can understand Demons – even if they are manifestation of everything that is evil. But there is no clear purpose in the brute force behind those faceless creatures… They can rip a man in half in a second and then feast on his souls. Yes, brother, there are thing you can never forget.” – Sir Roderic Malv, one of the Chapters Holy Knights

.

Faceless were created soon after the Demons came into the world of The Edge. Exact circumstance of their creation are not clear to either Chapter or demon, but the reports state, that first faceless creature were created from human body pierced by a crystal part.
First, they were only half-dead bio-mass wandering around battlefields and feasting on the dead, but soon they evolved into something much more terrifying – they implemented some of the metal parts into their bodies and reached for the next step in their evolution. Faceless takes various forms, but they have few things in common – all of them have a crystal hidden most often in their chests as well as they have usually masks built up from bones or metal (this is where they got their name).

They do not feel emotion and are driven by sole instinct of devouring and evolving – or at least they seems to, as there is little known about them. Sometimes they are called by humans “Soul eaters”, as they are literally sucking life energy from defeated enemies. They are also an unexpected obstacle and a threat for the Demons conquering plans, as they can’t be manipulated and they feel no fear.

When it comes to gameplay, Faceless will be mostly focusing on close combat fight and “growing” with each unit they will defeat. They have are also showing abnormal regeneration skills.

Take a look at more exclusive model preview of Faceless Berserk Alpha! Soon the model will be cast in high quality resin.

The Berserker is using with deadly accuracy the scavenged mechanical parts, now implemented to its body as shredding limbs attached to it’s back and sharp claws on the hands
