Smiley

Smiley (スマイリー, Sumairī) is one of the characters in Black★★Rock Shooter DAWN FALL. He is the leader of the Education Institution cult.

Appearance
Smiley has a glossy appearance, as seen by the shine on parts of his body. He has brown hair, blue eyes, defined pink lips, a mouth like a ventriloquist's dummy, and is naked save for a long red cape that he wears. Two lines of English text form a cross on his torso, both appearing to read "education is the only one that makes people happy".

Personality
Smiley is the embodiment of a God complex; A sociopathic individual who is obsessed with creating a perfect race, and speaking in condescending terms, believing himself enlightened and superior and with the knowledge and wisdom to guide those in need of his "education". He looks down on fundamentally everyone, and cares little for any life whatsoever except himself and Artemis.

He engages on depraved acts of religious zealotry, often speaking about "rituals" and "sacrifices" which he deems necessary. Said practices are very much reduced to engaging in lecherous sexual activity with young teenage girls all for the purpose to find someone compatible to modify into an Hermiteos Unit to serve as a proper birthing machine for his idealized race of perfected beings.

Smiley is deeply self-engrandoised, being openly disgusted with humanity and viewing them as inferiors, filthy and impure, while boasting of his own ability and right to nurture his self-professed new race under his rule and leadership. He is so drunk on his self-worth that he bobby trapped a train with girls to be used by him with bombs all to kill them in the eventuality a rescue force would interfere with his plans, all under the pretense of not allowing humanity to have them due to being undeserving, in his view, of his precious material.

Beyond all, Smiley was alienated from any sense of morality or redeeming qualities. Smiley was more than willing to toss his own men at Empress as he ran out of bullets on his vehicle. He was also, sexually perverted in nearly all instances, even in combat as he felt arousal when Empress shot at him.

History
the leader of the Education Institution, Smiley attempts to transform selected human girls into Hemiteos Units, and give birth to hybrids of living beings and machines that he self-proclaims as the "children of god".

Abilities
As the leader of the Education Institution, Smiley ruled over the entire body and could issue military operations at will, commanding over a great and threatening army equipped with several armed vehicles. Smiley himself had a seemingly bio-mechanical body that granted him superhuman abilities. While his own standard form was not suitable for combat, he could transform and modify his own body at his own discretion.

On his first combat form, Smiley's entire body became a stark pink while his own face resembled that of a robotic baby. In this form his body was fairly durable and could block bullets from Empress' gun with his forearms. On his final form, Smiley's skin is enveloped on a navy hue, with glowing pink marks across his body and face. In this form he sacrifices his durability for softness as his body can easily absorb the same bullets he used to block which inflicted no damage and could also withstand a point-blank explosion from a crashing vehicle and a grenade, although his crotch was a sensitive spot. In this form his body was flexible and could stretch his own arms several meters long and even split his own arm in two, giving him more limbs with which he could restrain his foes. Despite his increased combative power, he was not impervious to damage and Empress' main cannon was able to kill him in a single blast to his torso.

Smiley's personal vehicle was pink armored automobile twice as wide as Black Trike, and sporting two chainguns on the sides which could also face backwards. These chainguns had great firepower as they were capable of puncturing Black Trike's armor and deal critical damage. Smiley could also control them remotely by snapping his fingers.

Smiley was also a bio-engineering expert being capable of genetically modifying teenaged girls into being Hermiteos Units, although he could not apply this universally and needed a qualified vessel to perform this procedure.
