CHARACTER
INFORMATION
Name: E-123 "Omega"
Nicknames:
Omega
Inventory
classification: Twenty-fourth model of Dr. Robotnik's E-100
series. While earlier models were powered by small animals, Omega's
power source is unconfirmed.
Gender: N/A - Robot (however, he has a monotonous,
male voice; which is why he will be referred to as a male in this profile)
Age:
Unknown
Date of birth: Unknown
Birthplace: Unknown
Height: 150 cm
Weight:
1230.512 kg
Physical
techniques:
(1). Spin Jump
Description: Also referred to as the "spinball jump,"
Omega is able to leap into the air and curl into a spinning, tightly
compacted ball of destruction which can destroy enemies and break barriers.
In-game debut: Sonic Heroes, Nintendo GameCube/PlayStation 2/Microsoft
Xbox, 2003
Aptitude
statistics :
(1). Inconceivable melee demolition skills. Once motivated, E-123 Omega
can immediately decimate the current vicinity to smoldering ruins with
his outstanding firepower. Unlike E-102 Gamma's precision shooting,
having accuracy in his marksmanship is dismissed and ultimately unnecessary
for Omega.
(2). Heavy duty frame and inner mechanics make Omega remarkably powerful.
(3). Frame and interior components seem to be waterproof. (Frog
Forest and Lost Jungle ring a bell?)
(4). Upgraded limb construction to simulate more realistic bipedal
movement along with an upgraded propulsion system, enabling Omega to
fly slightly off the ground at very high speeds.
Hardware specs: Unknown
Weaknesses: No known weaknesses, other than
being a bit single-minded.
Appearance:
- Red, black, yellow, and silver color scheme
- Red and black torso with four exhaust vents and silver box-accents
with two thrusters on the back
- Small, yellow platform-like head with red cylindrical eyes
- Giant, acylindrical arms with several points of articulation, covered
at the top by unwieldy black shoulderpad components with red handle-bar
accents
- Large metal-constructed hands with 4 very sharp, claw-like digits
- Short legs with three points of articulation and large, black metal
feet accented in red
- Steel piping embraces the waist, the front of which has a large box-like
component with a green light, and the sides are covered in red metal
flaps
Items
& weapons:
- Omega's lower arm segments are so unbelievably massive since inside
each of them is a specialized weapons system. At will, Omega's razor
sharp claws (which are weapons themselves) can withdraw into his giant
arms and out will come a series of firearms including gatling guns,
flamethrowers, missile launchers, and laser cannons.
Vehicle(s):
N/A
Personality
details: Unlike the previous models of the E-100 series, E-123
Omega seems to have been blessed with a free will that was programmed
initially. Or, it is possible that once he was finally activated by
Rouge's presence, he immediately became self aware since he was so furious.
But no matter what, Omega does indeed have a free will: something E-102
Gamma had to work and get some sense talked into him (by the likes of
Amy) to achieve. Omega is serious, determined, and is motivated to do
but one simple task: get back at Dr. Robotnik for sealing him away like
some worthless reject and prove he is Eggman's strongest robot. Even
though E-123 Omega may not be as advanced as Dr. Robotnik's prized Metal
Sonic, Omega certainly could be a close second. He has set himself to
prove his worth to Eggman no matter what and to set the record straight
for being locked away so irrationally. And since he is a robot and a
determined one at that, there is little likelihood he will let anything
get in his way. Beyond that, though, he isn't without morals, as he
has respect for those he works with.
Historical
biography:
E-123
Omega, appropriately judging by his name, was the last of the E-100
series robots. Omega was a massive upgrade from the erroneous models
from before his time. Unfortunately, it seemed Dr. Robotnik lost interest
in the series by the time Omega was finished. So off Omega went and
was apparently shipped to one of Eggman's older bases to live a life
of eternal dormancy before he was even tested. For a long time, Omega
was stationary in the same room that Shadow was kept in suspended animation.
But fate had taken its toll, as one Rouge the Bat trespassed to access
Eggman's secret treasure she had heard of. That secret treasure turned
out to be Shadow. The noise and disruption stirred by Rouge's rapid
attempts to liberate Shadow from his incarceration activated Omega,
and in a blind rage, Omega immediately whipped out his gatling guns
and demolished the entire room to smoldering brimstone in his reckless
endeavor to eliminate all of Eggman's robots. Omega was angry for being
sealed up in that room, never to be activated again, and he wanted to
show Eggman just how angry he was. Shadow had other plans,
since he managed to free himself soon after. Unfortunately, he had amnesia
and did not remember a thing about his past.
Telling
Rouge to hold still to ensure her safety, Shadow immediately went off
to attack Omega as the robot continued eliminating (as he'd say it)
the vicinity, and right before Shadow made the final lunge of fate,
Rouge got in between both of them and told them to stop. After a brief
swapping of stories and rather dramatic anecdotes, the threesome decided
to form a team to get back at Eggman. Rouge was in it for the treasure,
Shadow to find answers about his past, and Omega to get back at Eggman
for sealing him in that room. So off the three went to hunt down the
dastardly doc and accomplish all of their goals.
During
their arduous voyage through endless bounds of jungles, beaches, cities,
and canyons, Omega was totally fixated on getting to Eggman. He did
not want to sight-see, waste time, or beat around the bush. He just
wanted to put in the fatal crack on that egg-shaped doctor, metaphorically-speaking.
Their journey paid off in the long run when they arrived on Eggman's
main skyship fortress and laid the smackdown on Dr. Robotnik…
or so they thought.
You
obviously know how the story goes (read Metal Sonic's profile if you
don't). That Eggman they battled was just another fake. The real Eggman
was trapped inside of his own aerial fortress, trying to get the Chaotix
boys to come save him! So needless to say, our three rebellious renegades
known as Shadow, Rouge and Omega definitely had a sour taste left in
their mouths once they found out Metal Sonic was behind it all. But
in the end, Super Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles saved the day and put a
stop to Metal Sonic's fiendish plot. Everything was okay, and as for
Omega? Aside from assisting Roueg and Shadow every now and again, he's still trying to lay his special brand of pwnage on Eggman
whenever and wherever he gets the chance.

Personal character analysis/commentary (by Nuclear Envoy):
E-123
Omega is actually cooler than Gamma, but his style and rap… hell,
his design just doesn't match up to E-102's. E-102 looked like some
effort was put into him; like he is an actual robot. Omega just looks
like something swapped together with only about a day or two's worth
of thought. But Omega's sweet moves and actual personality make him
just as cool, if not cooler than Gamma. Omega doesn't take crap from
anybody, isn't worried about answering any questions about himself and
isn't a dramatic cliché. He just wants the job done and likes
to blow stuff up. Let's face it, people like explosions. This is why
Bean would make a good addition to the cast. But for now, we get to
see Omega go postal on Eggman's little robots and randomly scream "ANNIHILATE"
and words like that.
As
for his further existence in the franchise, things are looking supringly
bright. He's been in quite a few titles since his debut, so he may be aroung for a while. Simply put, he came, he saw,
he conquered… and showed us what the heavily-anticipated Omega model of the E-100 series looks like.
