After the death of the most promising Zeta unit, Zeta 9, the program was retooled. Mass production became the main focus. After all, quantity is a quality all of it's own. The Zeta units are a mass produced combat android rarely seen on the battlefield. These special units have been modified to be launched from the Dawn Hammer in specialized drop pods from the roof of the vehicle.
These drop pods have been tuned to emit a haunting whistling sound as they fly through the air to the requested destination. When the Zeta units steps out of the pod, it's shrouded in a fog as the hydraulics that absorbed the impact release the pressure, making for a dramatic entrance, which is only amplified by the menacing appearance of the android.

Harriet shuts her eyes as her shadow begins to change shape. Becoming vague and undefined as three figures climb out of it.
Harriet's oldest companions are beings of Edge and (now) Heart. They fall under the domain of The Lionsmith, thanks to their time spent spent with Harriet and her dedication to over throwing the status quo. They eventually gained a small amount of Heart, born from the emotional connection Harriet has fostered with them.
Their forms are reflective of what Harriet pictured as the perfect protectors, to keep her safe from all harm. They do not always succeed, but they always try.
They each appear as Arthurian knights, their shadows inky and ever shifting. Though to the untrained eye, they simply look like comic book characters brought to life.
Harriet knows this well.
