Kalran: Tales of the four nations/Shiro Yamashita

"They will kneel. Willingly or not."

Shiro Yamashita is the hero unit of the Ouroboros Peacekeeper Division. Planned to be voiced by Billy Kametz

Tactical Analysis

 * Machine man: A deadly combatant more machine than Nekomata, Shiro is one of the toughest heroes equipped with a special cranial implant that lets him share his sensor data to nearby volunteer units, boosting their overall coordination, while also making any fire directed at units around him to damage him instead, allowing him to serve as a meatshield for more vulnerable volunteer forces, especially thanks to his incredibly tough body. This doesn’t mean he can’t fight as he is also armed with a high-powered, custom-made, anti-material rifle for handling anything on the ground or air, enabling him to defeat most enemies at range with ease and take out important targets
 * Machine heart: If his enemies get too close for comfort, or if he’s in a bloodthirsty mood, Shiro can transform his hands into a pair of mono-edged claws, which are enchanted to leach the life out of beings struck to heal him, and reveals the extent of his cybernetics, transforming into a beast that makes him even more vicious and quick, while terrifying anything near him, friends or foe. Once his limit is reached and switches back to normal mode, he’ll change back to his rifle
 * Design errors: He is not without his weaknesses, however. His rifle can only hold one round, and it takes a long time to reload, which can’t target aircraft, thus it’s easy for him to get overwhelmed without an escort. In addition, the weight of his 'augmentations' render him unable to swim and rather slow
 * Unloved and unnatural: After extended periods in battle, Shiro will change his rifle receiver to accept larger, prototype rounds. This prototype receiver allows him to not only chamber two more rounds, meaning he reloads after three shots, but the new round now explodes, not only killing anyone near the target but also causing those nearby to panic. Not to mention he will also overclock his systems, further increasing his powers but also giving him a powerful forcefield

Known Activities
- Wiped out an entire Tenko base alone and took almost no damage, save for a crossbow bolt through the leg.

- Destroyed a group of Salamander forces threatening an oil rig. Despite the fact that soldiers protecting the oil rig all died, he single-handedly eliminated the attack force of a hundred soldiers. Only losing an arm.

- Singlehandedly broke up a major riot on a recently conquered island. Despite being armed with rubber rounds and restricted from transforming, Shiro still managed to cause a large number of injuries and even a few deaths. Forcing the island the comply.

- Fought off a KAF surprise attack and rally the confused forces, despite losing his lower half in the initial strike, ending with him managing to get inside and destroy the leading Saegusa.
