Hemiteos Unit

The Hemitheos Unit (ヘーミテオスユニット, Hēmiteos Yunīto) are an organization of special technologically-enhanced fighters in Black★★Rock Shooter DAWN FALL.

History
The Hemitheos Unit were originally developed to protect Project Elysion and serve as its "trump card". However, when Artemis turned against humanity and rendered the project a failure, the Hemitheos Unit instead became humanity's guardians, fighting for their sake in the war against Artemis.

The exact process of becoming a Hemitheos Unit is as of yet unknown, but all known Hemitheos Units were originally human girls who were enhanced and remodeled through and through with computer DNA to become stronger. Their combination of biological DNA from when they were purely human and computer DNA gives them superhuman capabilities unlike any other, as seen in the known members' mutual and individual abilities to fight and survive.

Members
There are currently three known members of the Hemitheos Unit. All of the known members appear to have originated from Lighthouse No. 8, and are also the only known survivors of the Hemitheos Unit in the present time.


 * Empress - Leader of the Hemitheos Unit, also known as Black Rock Shooter.
 * Dead Master - A master sniper who is extremely possessive of Empress.
 * Strength - A violent girl who blames Empress for the gaps in her memories and recurring headaches.

The Black Trike owned by Empress, as well as the other two models of its kind owned by Dead Master and Strength respectively, all serve the Hemitheos Unit as high-mobility support combat vehicles.

Etymology
Hemitheos is derived from the Ancient Greek word ἡμίθεος (hēmítheos), which means "demigod".
