Christian

Christian Devroe is one of the ten pilots available in the one player mode and an opponent in the North American Open, WAR Invitational and World Championship tournaments in One Must Fall: 2097, and one of the few returning characters in One Must Fall: Battlegrounds. His motivation in the single player storyline mode is to avenge the deaths of his parents, which he suspects were orchestrated by Major Hans Kriessack for their refusal to continue work on the mysterious Nova project in WAR. His main affiliation is his twin sister Crystal Devroe. He genuinely cares about her and doesn't approve of her risks taken to unearth the truth behind their family's tragedy. His other ally is Shirro, a family friend. He interacts cordially with Ibrahim and Cossette and displays rather indifference towards other competitors. His only hostility is against Major Kreissack.

Profile[]

One Must Fall: 2097[]

Christian's aggressive style strikes fear in the minds of competitors and desire in the hearts of many young women.

Christian knows that the shuttle which carried his parents was destroyed on purpose. The passenger manifest listed thirty persons going aboard the craft, and all the names on the list weren't real. WAR killed his parents, and he wants revenge. The fact that his sister Crystal seems to be in on the hunt only scares Christian. He realizes the power of WAR and is afraid for her safety. When she applied for the Ganymede position, as he knew she would, Christian vowed he would beat her himself just to keep her from putting herself in the possibly dangerous position of Head of Ganymede. His anger and bitterness are such that he never stops training to win, and his opponents will agree that he is about the most aggressive fighter in the contest.

One Must Fall: Battegrounds[]

Years of professional combat has made him an aggressive and unyielding opponent. His consistently solid fighting and sportsmanlike attitude has made him a favorite among critics and fans alike.

Notes[]

Player controlled[]

Christian is one of the best pilots to use in the single player mode, having well balanced stats with a slightly high endurance. He works best with balanced HARs like Jaguar, Katana and Shredder.

Opponent[]

Christian is extremely aggressive and learns fairly quickly, tending to use the same move over and over; depending on which bot he’s in, this can be good or bad for you. He absolutely loves combo moves, so keep blocking! Fortunately for you, he often forgets to block, so use his strategy against him: keep hitting him until his defense slips and make your own combo. His mix of power and endurance is good in any robot, but the more obscure robots like Pyros and Gargoyle could confuse your opponent a little.

As you fly towards the moon, a peace falls over you.

You feel like you can finally be happy, now that your parent's deaths have been avenged.
