Overview:
    When word initialy came in to a comission from the now resurgent Jade Falcon forces offered
    to D&K Creation Studios, the company was initially thrilled by the offer. A new heavy
    omnimech, one intended to hold the line of battle as an anchor unit for combined arms and to
    go the bare minimum standard speed of 65 KMH at a run, why that was an easy ask for the
    admittedly suffering from success company, especially with the other offers of production
    liscenses in exchange for their own liscened omnimechs, in this case the Zagreus, the
    Vidofnir, and the Thunderbolt omnimech.
    
    Then came the devastating attacks on the Raven Alliance, one of their new homes. From this
    outflow of information of the horrors now taking place across the entire inner sphere, of
    taking place in their own back yard, and of more attacks being planned by the thought
    extinct menace, they had to adapt to the new battlefields that would take place. Then came
    word from Savannah. Of the rapid flight from a resurgent Word of Blake force from a majority
    of their technicians in service with Sequere Nos. And then word was given of the stubborn,
    heroic survivors of those battered few. Those brave FWL, Capellan, Sequere Nos, even those
    brave Wolf forces that threw themselves into the gauntlet to desperately hold that line on
    Savannah, of those few D&K technicians that stayed to repair and even give their lives there
    on that far flung world.
    
    The plans, for what is now known as the Hræsvelgr, changed. Gone was the expensive, fast
    'mech originally planned. In its place was a rugged, inexpensive, easy to repair machine.
    Gone was the ferro-fibrous armor and XL engine to propel the 'mech to speeds of 84
    kilometers an hour. In their place, eighteen and a half tons of ballistic-reinforced armor
    and a standard 300 rated fusion engine to allow the machine to keep to fighting to the last,
    and whether artillery fire like a champion. Gone were the fifteen engine mounted heatsinks,
    dropped down to twelve to allow for the engine size difference thanks to dropping the speed.
    But now added was a compact gyro, to allow the machine to mount more weaponry in its central
    torso to continue fighting when many other machines will die. The only thing that indeed
    remained consistent throughout its creation was its endo steel chassis, though with the now
    added ballistic armor, many structural changes had to be made.
    
    What was originally a more elegant and refined vision more akin to a classical bird of prey,
    now instead turned into a treading, plodding machine of death that resembles something like
    the bigger birds of Old Terra. Those that show their ancient raptor and more sauropodian
    ancestry better. Still elegant, in a way, but in their more primal sense of wanting to hurt
    their enemies. One that will last throughout the battle, and show why it was named after
    something in mythology better known as the Corpse Eater. For at the end of the battle, that
    will be all that is left of its enemies to consume.

Capabilities:
    Thanks to some... vested interest and a now surplus in VSP lasers recently, the Hræsvelgr E
    was originally a field refit of a heavily damaged chassis sent into battle as soon as
    possible to hold the line against a renewed Blakist assault. Equipped with two at the time
    scavenged Large Variable Speed Pulse Lasers, as well as a light active probe, a light TAG
    system, and an ECM suite in the head on top of its four pod mounted jump jets, the black box
    recordning recovered from the initial machine offered great insights into how effective the
    machine would work with only two "big guns" to provide firepower as an anchor unit. In this
    case, it showed that the inclusion of the VSPs provided ample benefit for very little cost
    to the chassis, as when combined with its electronics payload and its jump jets, it
    performed with distiction as a skirmisher.
    
    Thanks to this, the E variant was put into fulltime production by D&K Creation Studios as an
    option to buy directly from the company.
