Cerberus unit 02: Rottweiler type. Code Name: Big Bertha (Bertha for short)

Another specialized Aretemis/Wunderkildren Beast design. Built for the German Techanoid special forces Panzertek, Bertha was obviously the heavy weapons specialist. Unfortunately, she never got a chance to prove herself. Shortly after activation, her and her 'litter' of 7 other sibling units were being transported to their base to receive training. Their transport was ambushed by terrorists hoping to capture and use the Techs for their own means. However, their attack worked too well and instead of disabling the transport they were on, accidentally destroyed their hauler when the RPG they fired ignited the fuel tank which in turn caused the ammo the units were carrying to explode as well. Bertha was in the back, hanging most of herself out of the window, enjoying the ride like any dog would, when the attack happened. She fell out of the vehicle when the RPG hit and was spared when the vehicle blew up, eliminating her siblings. She was in shock when the terrorists discovered her as they tried to salvage the situation. When they tried to restrain her, she went berserk.

Her attackers were caught off guard when she suddenly turned and bit the head off the closest one to her. They were shocked long enough for her to grab the fallen human's assault rifle and turn it against the next two closest to her. With 3 of their number down already, the survivors attempted to take her down with various assault weapons and RPGs. They didn't last more than 5 minutes against her rage filled rampage. 24 armed terrorists armored walkers were literally torn to shreds by the time that response forces arrived. Bertha was covered from head to toe in gore and was busy tearing at the soft insides of a combat armor, despite the pilot being long dead. She nearly attacked her friendly forces but collapsed when she lunged at them. Apparently she expended most of her energy in her previous attack, mostly due to having only a minimal amount when she was activated.

She was detained and was tagged for termination, but before her due date she was paid a visit by the Artemis Director. She really wasn't in a mood for talking and pretty much told him to "Either kill me or piss off!" She revealed that she has a strong dislike for humans and can't stand how weak and pitiful they are, how they are so 'squishy' and smell horrible. Her attention was piqued when he offered her a second chance at existence and many more chances to kill humans. She thought of it for a moment and accepted.

Like her team mates, she is officially 'terminated' but is actually part of the covert strike team Cerberus. She prefers big guns such as shot guns, mini-guns, and lots of high explosive launchers such as RPGs and anti-tank rockets. In a pinch, she's deadly enough without weapons. She can tear into a tank in seconds, and rip out pilots from walkers like it was nothing. She creeps out her squad when she enjoys comparing the task by saying how she loves to crack the hard shell to get to the soft squishy insides. She apparently also has a nickname for humans, calling them 'Squishy' whenever she has the chance. Her dislike for humans is tolerable though she makes it clear she dislikes being near them. However, she has taken a liking to her savior, the Director, and enjoys his company. Preferably when on his visits he scratches her behind the ear and tells her she's a good girl. She thought of spending a night with him, but worries that she might destroy his fragile body.

In the mean time, she does take a liking to her squad mates, though she does try to hide it. At times she's annoyed by her sniper, Loc-in and is frustrated by how by the book her team leader Rinty is. But she will always be counted on to save their butts when something bad happens. She apparently developed a horrible fear for flying after a mission where she had to jump out of an airplane at a high altitude. She openly refuses to get on any airplane or helicopter and tends to have to be put in stand by mode by her team mates. They have to decide who restarts her by flipping a coin since they discovered the hard way that she wakes up punching the first thing in sight.

In her spare time, she seems to enjoy playing fetch with grenades. If the grenades are live, no one knows. She has also taken a liking to cigars as well.
