==Overview:==
The Great Old One is a Solaris one-shot, a Frankenmech built only for arena
combat. As such it is a bit eccentric, or outlandish as some would say. Two
heat exchangers protrude from it's back, resembling nothing as much as a pair
of vestigial wings. The weaponry is all clustered around the neck, making it
appear the mech has tentacles protruding from it's "mouth". A monstrous claw
and a heavy, jagged sword complete the horrible sight.

==Capabilities:==
The Great Old One carries an impressive array of lasers for medium-short
ranges. Four large lasers make up the main punch, with three mediums and two
small adding to the salvo as the mech closes on it's prey. Once at close
combat range the Great Old One will grapple it's target and disintegrate it
with what seems like glee.

==Battle History:==
Seen in only five matches so far, the Great Old One has won them all. The most
spectacular show was perhaps fighting a Warhammer in the Liao arena. The Great
Old One moved under water to close in on the foe, who was setting fires in a
desperate attempt to slow down the advancing menace. The assault mech stepped
up from the water straight into raging fire and lumbered forward at unusually
high speed for it's size. The backpedalling Warhammer was caught and slowly
disassembled, as if the Great Old One really hated it.

==Variants:==
None.

==Notable 'Mechs & MechWarriors:==
The pilot of this unique mech is known only as the Masked One. He (for it is a
man) always wears an executioner's hood and uses old Star League uniforms with
Colonel's insignia. After-battle footage shows him with a Star League
neurohelmet. The short speeches aired for the public suggest this person might
be a native of the Draconis Combine, or possibly the Lyran Alliance.

Whatever his origin, he must be classified as an Elite pilot at the very
least. The way he gets the 90-ton mech to move is nothing short of amazing,
and his gunnery is second to none among the current top twenty.
