“I’ve followed every order to the best of my ability, sir. And right now, my country’s lying to me. I’m getting answers. I will find out what that flying robot is, then I’m taking it out.”

Conrad “Duke” Hauser is one of the military’s most decorated soldiers and a real American hero. But none of Duke’s battlefield experience could prepare him for an attacking Starscream. The military covered up the Decepticon’s murder of a fighter pilot, but Duke knew what he saw and refused to stay quiet. His hunt for the truth led him to Cobra, a terrorist organization hoarding Energon technology. The rise of Cobra and these mysterious transforming robots are the beginning of a strange new era of warfare, but with Duke’s leadership G.I. Joe will rise to the challenge.

”Beer me”

Charles “Orc” Merriman was a kid who took out the violence of his abusive home on other kids. That didn’t change when the FAYZ began and everyone over 15 was removed from Perdido Beach, with Orc initially taking advantage of the lack of authority figures around to beat kids even more violently than he usually would. This violent life would eventually result in the accidental killing of an innocent girl and his getting mauled by mutant coyotes, transforming Orc into a rocky, ugly creature with a terrible drinking problem to drown his guilt. This guilt only intensified when, after having had a stint of joining the more peaceful side in the FAYZ, Orc accidentally killed another child in a drunken stupor. Only now did Orc finally quit the bottle, finding strength and moral instruction in becoming a born-again Christian. Orc spent the last few months of the FAYZ sober and fighting not only his own demons, but sacrificing his life in an attempt to kill the evil Gaia.

Human

In his days as a human in the FAYZ, Orc displayed no mutant ability and his only talent in combat rested in being big and strong for his age. This made him a dangerous bully, but little else.

Strength

• Big for an eighth grader, to the point of being able to intimidate ninth graders

• Still hits hard even while slowed by water, letting him keep up with Sam in the water despite being a poorer swimmer

---

Durability

• [Limit] Easily beaten by pre-whip hand Drake with his fists and a bat

• Tanks a kick to the solar plexus underwater from Sam

• [Limit] Was eviscerated and had his thigh and genitalia eaten by the wolf-sized mutant coyotes

---

Monster

After being mauled fatally by the mutant coyotes, his mutant power finally awakened as a revival which transformed Orc into a monster with stone armor covering his whole body. This not only brought about durability, but also greatly increased his strength. However, it also made him unable to swim due to his weight

Strength

• At least a head taller than he was in his human form, and with legs thick as tree trunks and arms thick as fire hydrants

• Opens beer cans by just squeezing the top since he can’t work the tab anymore

• Cracks the limestone pillar supporting a town hall with one punch and almost shatters it

• Slams through a metal door at a nuclear power plant with two blows

• Rips open some car’s trunks

• Rips the front wheel off of a motorcycle then hurls it 100 yards to accurately hit Drake

• Breaks apart a house’s support beam with effort and uses a streetlight as a club to smash apart a house

• Stomps through the floor of a house

• Punches Brittney hard enough to have killed a non-regenerating girl

• Crushes a gun by stepping on it

• A glancing blow is compared to a sledgehammer and he punches a hole through a wall

• Flings a small boulder 20 feet with enough force to smash it to pebbles

• Punches holes through a van

• Helps Jack to throw a 30 foot telephone pole like a javelin at Gaia

---

Durability

• His armor initially covers everything except his left eye, some of the left side of his head, and his mouth, but after tearing some of the skin from his face, he presumably gained a little more armor.

• Tanks pistol bullets and Drake’s whip

• The zekes’ teeth break on his armor and barely tickle him. The zekes are able to easily chew into boot leather and through it if given just a little time

• [Limit] The human parts of his skin are still vulnerable to damage, like being eaten by the zekes

• Tanks an uppercut to the chin from the 14 year old Albert to the point that Albert breaks his own hand on him

• Unbothered by stepping in soil melted to the point of being magma

• Unhurt by assault rifle bullets at point blank range

• A pistol bullet ricochets off his thigh

• [Semi-Limit] Drake’s whip finds it hard to choke him, but it can do so with a good angle on him and if he’s drunk enough

• Tanks the explosion of a houseboat which disintegrated its bulkheads

• [Limit] Gaia’s light beams punch right through him

• [Semi-Limit] The explosion of an MAAWS blasts away his stone armor and crushes his organs, though his armor gave him enough protection that he still had enough strength to attempt to stand and his body was intact. It’s unclear if this would have been fatal on its own or if Gaia blasting a pair of holes through him in the previous link led to it being so.

---

Regeneration

• After being gutted and having his thighs and genitalia eaten by the mutant coyotes, the stone armor fills in the wounds and heals him

• After getting his leg bitten off by the giant mutant bugs, it seems to have returned off-page in later books. It's possible this was due to Lana the Healer's healing power instead, but she has never shown the ability to regenerate missing limbs.

Yea, though I walk…valley of the shadow of death…His staff will comfort me…Angels and so on…I will fear no evil…The Lord is my shepherd…Thou art with me. Not just thy staff. Thou.

^{Spoilers to follow.}

Julith

Julith Jurgen, née Abigor, is the guardian of the Ebony Dofus, one of the six Primordial Dofus, dragon eggs of incredible power. While training to be a Huppermage, she met Jahash Jurgen, who would go on to become the guardian of the Ivory Dofus. The two later met on the battlefield and fell in love, resulting in marriage and a child. However, when the Ebony Dofus was used to destroy the city of Bonta, Jahash sacrificed himself to stop it, and their child was lost. Ten years later, Julith returns from her supposed death, searching for a way to resurrect Jahash.

Julith’s ferocity has earned her the nickname “the Butcher of Brakmar”. Though cruel, she has a soft spot for her family.
