@S121
This could work.
If they can overcome the illusions, psychic visions, and teleportation then it should be straightforward to capture Kessler. Much like Cole, Kessler relies on electricity. Drain him of most of his energy and he should be easy to capture. Other than that, I can't think of much else except how Cole would react to the reality of not only a fully functioning Raysphere but to also see his greatest foe brought back. I'll have to share some more details about Kessler in due time but a lot of them are large spoilers.

Ok.

As for a countermeasure against Kessler, would a Halo Power Drain ball work? It's capable of fully draining a Spartan's shields, which are powered by a fusion reactor, so it would work, right?

@S121
That should be acceptable. Technically nuclear fusion doesn't directly result in electrical power but I can imagine that the armour converts the produced thermonuclear energy into electricity for use in the shields and other devices within the armour. If this is the case then a Power Drain Ball should be effective against Kessler.

@TRXD

The reason I mentioned the fusion reactor because I was trying to give you a sort of measurement of how much power is needed for the shields.

Sorry if I caused any confusion. ^^;


Now I just need to find the Power Drain's maximum effective range.

Okay here are my app for Gate.

Gate:
Spoiler
NPC Character of Choice: Gate

Game of Origin: Mega Man X series. First officially appeared in X6

Power: Gate is remarkably intelligent. This is evident as he was one of the first people to ever get close to fully analyzing Zero's DNA (it even states that he had decrypted 99.98% of Zero's DNA. Something no one else in the series have been able to do.) Gate is also somewhat dangerous in a fight. As when he takes off his lab coat he dons a golden battle armor. When in this battle armor Gate gains the power of flight, capable of summoning Nightmare Drones, and creating small "gates" that have different effects ranging from slowing down time temporarily, altering gravity to make the field much heavier, and even a sort of black hole of sorts that sucks in any nearby targets. Thanks to Gate's armor he is immune to the effects of these "gates." Also with this armor Gate's defense is nearly doubled. Allowing him to even resist fully charged X-Buster shots, and slashes from the Z-Saber.

Weapons: None, except his ability to create and summon Nightmare Drones. Or to be exact the Nightmare Virus (Which is in a drone-like form.)
These things obey all of Gate's commands, and since they are basically a computer virus manifested into a physical form Gate can summon a near indefinite amount of them (not all that once. He can only summon so much at any given time. That does not stop him from being able to make an army of them if you give him enough time.) These Nightmare Viruses are capable of infecting and taking control of technology by latching on, and having their DNA strand-like arms fuse with any piece of technology. This even includes fallen robots and machinery. When the drones do this you can still see the head of the drone sticking out of the piece of machinery, and if you destroy the head you basically get rid of that individual virus. They are also capable of firing incredibly weak energy spheres from their chests, but it takes approximately a 30 seconds to charge up a single shot.

Weaknesses: Gate's armor may give him abilities to mess with/ and take on most opponents stronger than him, but he is not a physical fighter by any means. He prefers to plan ahead, and use strategy more than anything. Messing with opponents with his many "gates" to take on his opponents. Even with his armor the only real thing going for him is his added defense, and maneuverability. Gate is also incredibly vulnerable to his own attacks. As his "gates" can be destroyed by attacking them with energy (like hitting it with an energy saber) which will cause the gates to burst, and if Gate is within range he will be caught in the explosion and will be seriously injured. Not only that, but Gate may be maneuverable but he isn't that fast. One can easily outclass him in speed.
Gate does not even really fight unless he has to. Preferring to develop strategies for allies to use, or sending other people to fight for him.

Appearance:
Normal Gate:

Battle Armor Gate:


Personality: Gate is a devoted researcher with a cold and sarcastic attitude. In order to achieve his goals, he's willing to do everything necessary to get what he wants. During his time with the research team, unlike Alia, he broke research protocols by making his creations unanalyzable, causing him to become a social outcast. He became bitter and filled with hatred when his creations were destroyed by his very own colleagues, especially because Alia (who's often speculated to have felt romantic feelings for him) was part of the conspiracy. Like many of the villains in the series, Gate desired (and still sort of does) a Reploid government under his leadership, and will gain it by any means necessary. However this desire for a Reploid only government had almost been forgotten when he began work with the Neo-Yakuza. He also became "friends" with Volgin. His boss, and the leader of the Neo Yakuza base of Australia... before Volgin blew it up because it was attacked by an unknown Reploid who stole Gate's
s "secret" weapon.

Gate believes that the best programs are completely unanalyzable, which is why he is so fascinated by X and Zero, and why he valued the sample of Zero's DNA that he obtained so highly.

Morality: Heavy Neutral. He may work with Volgin still, but he does do what he wants. He can also be persuaded to help others.

Biography:
Gate used to work in a team of Reploid scientists, researching the potential of Reploid engineering. He was fascinated by the Maverick Hunters X and Zero because their body structures and DNA was a mystery to the world's finest scientist and researchers. Both of them were completely unanalyzable and their inner functions couldn't be fully understood. He saw it as a challenge to find a way of analyzing both of them or at least creating Reploids with similar attributes. Eventually, he succeeded and created eight Reploids whose DNA couldn't be analyzed by the other scientists: Commander Yammark, Rainy Turtloid, Shield Sheldon, Blizzard Wolfang, Blaze Heatnix, Infinity Mijinion, Ground Scaravich and Metal Shark Player. Gate's Reploids were widely praised and used in various locations for several duties. However, this created jealousy and disdain between him and his colleagues, and they eventually began conspiring against him and his creations. Alia was also one of them, although unwillingly.
All seven of his Reploids were either sabotaged while on duty or labeled Maverick, but in any case, all of them were destroyed. Broken and bitter, Gate left the research team, becoming an anchorite somewhere on Earth. However, things changed when he discovered some interesting remains while skimming through the wreckage at the Eurasia crash site...

During the events of X6 which was two weeks after the Eurasia incident (happened during X5), Gate visited the crash site. There, he found something. At first, he thought he had merely found a piece of junk, but it soon proved to be something far more powerful. It was a piece of Zero, more importantly, a DNA sample of Zero. He immediately began analyzing it and after roughly a week of study, he had been turned insane by Zero's viral DNA; however, he called it a very "liberating" experience. With the help of the mysterious Reploid scientist Isoc, he managed to decrypt 99.98% of Zero's DNA, creating the Nightmare Virus from it, as well as the powerful Reploid High Max and resurrecting his eight dead creations.
Both of them then came up with a plan to use Zero as a scapegoat for creating a new society of selected, powerful Reploids; independent from humanity, in an ideal state, led by Gate. To do this, he created a discolored, apparently insane copy of Zero, called the Zero Nightmare, which was then publicly blamed for the recent Maverick attacks by Isoc. Isoc encouraged Reploids all over the planet to join the Nightmare Investigators to hunt down and destroy the Zero Nightmare to bring back peace.

Eventually, Gate would contact the Maverick Hunters upon their victory over his creations or a temporary defeat of High Max, inviting X and Zero (if found by X after the destruction of the Zero Nightmare) to challenge him. He later revealed to X/Zero that he didn't set up all this on his own, but with the help of Zero's DNA. In order to gather and analyze even more data about the two ancient robots, Gate challenged X/Zero to battle. By utilizing all the data he had analyzed by now, Gate managed to make his golden battle armor virtually invincible against all attacks; except his own if they were repelled against him. X/Zero managed to find this weakness and defeated him, leaving him damaged and immobile. Gate, however, refused to give up. Although he didn't want to do it, Gate unleashed his final trump card: a revived (yet incomplete, with an unfinished body and a barely alive consciousness, leading him to act irrationally and incoherent) Sigma. Unfortunately for him, however, Sigma refused to acknowledge Gate's part in his resurrection, nor needing him for anything, and killed him.

After Sigma had been defeated, X returned to the remains of Gate's laboratory, salvaging his body because he was unable to leave him there as he used to be Alia's friend. Yet, he had been severely damaged. Alia was given the choice of what to do with Gate, repairing him or otherwise; however, it was never made clear and his fate remains unknown.

In the real world after the Horizon Incident Gate was brought into the world and had been found by the Neo-Yakuza where he had became the head scientist/researcher of the Neo-Yakuza base of Australia alongside Volgin who was in charge of that base.
Gate and Volgin had actually bonded quite a bit, and became friends of sorts over discussing Volgin's "secret" project. In turn Gate had also showed Volgin his own secret project. Another Nightmare replica of Zero. This one was called "Nightmare Zero MK-II" and would have been much more powerful than the original Nightmare Zero. As well as being more stable. However one night when Gate was in his lab doing some research a mysterious, yet familiar Reploid had broken into his lab and wrecked the whole place. Gate tried to stop the mysterious intruder, but was unable to. As a result Gate was seriously injured, and Nightmare Zero MK-II was activated and attacked Volgin before escaping alongside the mysterious Reploid.

After that security breach Volgin took Gate and destroyed the entire base while fleeing. Currently Gate is up and running once more. He is currently somewhere in Russia.

Traumas: Easily when his own colleagues (including Alia) had betrayed him and destroyed his creations when he originally worked as a researcher.

@ Neo
Thing is, Volgin has been missing for two months as he has been captured for testing on a new product...

@Wonder

That I did not know Wonder. I kind of forgot what had happened after the whole Gate and Volgin thing had happened.

It's alright. I'll get it started after S1 posts.
