Biography
Mutation Disaster and the Secret War
Terry deploys as one of the three Calamity Grades in Degulish's squad and accepts the plan to kill Han Xiao. During the battle, he uses metal strips extending from his combat suit to tear through machinery and repeatedly pressures Han at close range. Although his attacks pierce vital areas and his speed creates an opportunity to disengage, the DarkStar force cannot kill Han. Terry survives and, after the retreat, asks Degulish what the group should do next. (Chapters 567 and 569–577)
Appearance and personality
Terry wears a thin, light combat suit, but the corpus gives no stable description of his face, species, or build. He is terse and mission-focused. He does not object to killing Han and reports the operation's failure without offering excuses. (Chapters 567, 570, and 577)
Abilities and class
Terry is a Calamity Grade Mechanical Pugilist. Unknown-alloy strips built into his suit can extend for dozens of meters, move like flexible blades, destroy machinery, and pierce vital points. He is also fast enough to create distance from Han during their fight. The corpus does not explain whether he built the equipment himself or name his techniques. (Chapters 570–574)
