Durge (1999)



A short, thickly-built shelled alien from the world Pleuron, Durge was a strong and gung-ho soldier, winning nine commendations for bravery. He preferred the direct approach, and tended to barrel through obstacles and enemies like a tank. Unfortunately, he felt hampered by his heavy, slow body, and tried to overcome this with powerful stimulants. He secretly became addicted, which culminated in him hallucinating and shooting three innocent women. Durge's mind was erased in v1,#18 but his automaton-like body, able to follow simple orders, was still used in battle until his death.
