An original Daimon design I came up with a while back and finally decided to draw.

Arma was an early prototype from when the Death Busters operation was still in its infancy stages and still experimenting with Daimon parasite genomes. While later generations of Daimons would be able take control of organisms and eventually even transmutate inanimate objects into suitable hosts, the early test genomes utilized specially constructed and engineered bodies for the parasite to interface with. While rudimentary, the process was stable and reliable, and provided a solid foundation for experimentation with a wide variety of Daimon sub-strains.

With the Death Busters urgently in need of an effective warrior unit, Arma's physical body was designed as a versatile HWP (Heavy Weapons Platform), capable of handling a wide range of conventional weapons with relative ease, from basic machineguns, to light artillery cannons, and even surface-to-air missiles if needed. Though expensive and time consuming to produce even a single body unit, the infusion of specially engineered Daimon cells would result in a devastatingly powerful combatant, combining the firepower and durability of a battle tank with the flexibility and adaptability of standard infantry.
