Description
The "Pariah" is the codename given by Clan Diamond Shark to an OmniMech produced by Clan Coyote. The 'Mech was first encountered by them in 3072, when the Coyotes conquered Babylon.[3] (Further review of new data indicates that the Pariah was created by members of The Society, a group of Scientists who worked to overthrow the traditional Clan society homeworlds. The Scientist designation for this 'Mech is Septicemia.)[1]
The "Pariah" is apparently a front-line OmniMech, as no expense was spared in its construction. The 'Mech saves weight with an XL Engine, Endo Steel chassis, and nine tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor.[3]
Armament
The primary configuration of the "Pariah" is a long-range combatant. Its largest weapon is a HAG 40, though it can only deliver twelve payloads. An ER Large Laser provides effective backup and gives the 'Mech staying power. Both guns are aided by a Targeting Computer.[3]
Alternate Configurations
- Alt. Config. A - A support variant, the second most-commonly seen version of the "Pariah" mounts two ATM 12s with three tons of ammunition for each. These are supplemented by three Heavy Small Lasers in each arm. Extra double heat sinks keeps heat levels in check. BV (2.0) = 1,935[2]
- Alt. Config. B - The third configuration excels at close-quarters combat in restricted terrain, such as an urban environment. Seven improved jump jets enable the "Pariah" to leap up to 210 meters in the air. Two Large Pulse Lasers and three Small Pulse Lasers allow the MechWarrior to make full use of the 'Mech's jumping capabilities and still be accurate. Additional heat sinks keep heat levels under control. BV (2.0) = 2,310[2]
- Alt. Config. C - The fourth variant is primarily for use against non-'Mech forces. Three Plasma Cannons can drive a 'Mech's heat up, but are devastating against conventional vehicles. Eight AP Gauss Rifles and two Machine Gun Arrays, each of which have four Machine Guns, can effortlessly annihilate unarmored infantry. Four Medium Pulse Lasers are effective against hardened targets, including battle armor. BV (2.0) = 2,227[2]
- Alt. Config. D - A hard-hitting, command variant, the "D" was the least-commonly fielded of all the ones seen on Babylon. It mounts an ER PPC for distance. An Ultra Autocannon/20 can make short work of enemies up close, though ammunition is limited. Three ER Small Lasers are potent backups for the high-heat ER PPC. Jump jets enable the "D" to vault up to 150 meters at a time. Accuracy of all the weapons is aided by a Targeting Computer. BV (2.0) = 2,718[2]
- Alt. Config. E - Found only in the Wars of Reaving that took place on the Clan Homeworlds, this configuration was used extensively by The Society and their warriors. The configuration consists of a pair of ER PPCs and six ER Medium Lasers tied into a Targeting Computer. It also carries a Light Active Probe to locate hidden units, but the most dangerous part of its equipment is the Nova CEWS system that allowed it to share targeting data with friendly units. BV (2.0) = 2,950[4]
