Code Name: Strider Hien

Former Status: A-Class Strider

Despite being Strider Hiryu's former comrade and friend, Strider Hien was too ambitious to be the most powerful out of all the Striders on Moralos. It was because of this that Hien set Grand Master Meio free from his coffin, beleiving that Meio would give him power beyond anyone on Earth. Hien joined Meio to achieve this and was thus, Meio's right hand man in his plan to take over the world. Hien is a formidable opponent. Armed with two Cyphers, his weapons are attatchable to make a Cypher that can be thrown around like a boomerang for long distance attacks. His fighting style is very reminiscent to that of Hiryu's, but seems to move more quickly due to his younger age. Given the mission to stop Meio and protect Earth, Hiryu has encountered and fought against Strider Hien sevral times, but has never reported Hien to be dead. It seems like the Striders have not seen the last of him...

Name: Onslaught

Alias: Charles Xavier

Date of encounter: N/A

Hiryu's most recent adversary. According to Hiryu's report, Onslaught was a sentient psionic being created from the consciousness of two people: Professor Charles Xavier, founder and leader of the X-Men, and the mutant known as Magneto. Some time ago in Professor Xavier's dimension, Magneto had established his space station Avalon as a haven for mutants who had no desire to remain on Earth due to seemingly endless persecution. Magneto, in his grief over the death of Illyana Rasputin from the Legacy Virus, had created, and intended to use, a weapon involving electromagnetic pulses to destroy most of humanity. The X-Men, including Professor Xavier, traveled to Avalon to stop him. During the battle between the X-Men and Magneto's Acolytes, Xavier used his telepathic powers to reach into Magneto's mind and shut it down. Magneto was rendered catatonic as a result. During the psionic contact, Magneto's anger, grief, and lust for vengeance entered Xavier's consciousness and remained there. Magneto's negative patterns combined with every long-suppressed negative feeling that Xavier had endured over the last thirty years. The combination of these created the entity known as Onslaught. Onslaught remained dormant for some time after Xavier's fight with Magneto as Xavier's continued frustration with his dream of human-mutant harmony began to increase. The daily growth of anti-mutant hysteria, the deaths of dozens of mutants from the Legacy Virus, and Xavier's own failed attempt to rehabilitate the mutant sociopath Sabretooth, which resulted in near-fatal injuries to the X-Man Psylocke, were all factors in Xavier's increased level of frustration. The breaking point occurred when a young mutant named Dennis Hogan was hunted down and killed by an anti-mutant group near the grounds of the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning, the secret base of the X-Men. It was at this point that Onslaught awakened within Xavier. The X-men tried to stop Onslaught from his quest of purifying Earth of it's inhabitants but it was already too late. Being able to go to different dimentions, Onslaught broke into a multitude of different worlds leaving only trails of destruction behind. Action was needed to take place. It was at this time that Strider Hiryu was assigned by the Vice Director in Japan to investigate. Although Hiryu had lost contact with Strider HQ, he was able to put a stop to Onslaught after a long battle on an astral plane with the help of Captain Commando and his team of skilled (but rather strange) commandos, former assassin Ton Pooh, the X-men, Blodia Pilot Jin Saotome, and many other individuals from not only Xavier's dimension, but from other paralell universes as well. To Hiryu's surprise, Onslaught turned out to be none other than Professor Charles Xavier. It seemed that Xavier had a little control over over his own will left and summoned Hiryu and everyone else to fight against and defeat Onslaught on a neutral ground without harming any innocent civilians. Hopefully, an event like this will never happen again.

Name: Strider Matic

Former Status: Vice Director of Moralos

A good man gone bad due to Project: Zain, Strider Matic was being controlled by a tree called the Yagdrasil that was under safe keeping on his battleship, the Red Dragon. Matic then ordered Strider Hiryu to kill his comrade Strider Kain who knew too much about Project: Zain. It was Matic's threat of killing innocent Mongolians that forced Hiryu out of reitrement. Hiryu's report states that Matic had been infected and brainwashed by the Yagdrasil when guarding it. It seems that the Yagdrasil gave off psi-waves which infected the minds of anyone who stood within a certain vincity of it. Matic was killed in action by Strider Hiryu with the assistance of Strider Ryuzaki.

Name: Meio

Former Status: Emperor of "The Third Moon"

As the most powerful out of all of Hiryu's enemies, Grand Master Meio reigned supreme over the Russian government a few years back. Our database doesn't have much on him but it is said that he has come from outside the solar system. Possibly the Pixie system. He has the power to create and deconstruct anything, whenever he pleases. As he watched Earth from his moon base "The Third Moon", Meio had the power of a god. We don't know how Hiryu was able to stand up to a monster such as Meio, but one thing is for sure. Nobody would want to re-live the war between him and Earth.

Name: ???

Alias: Solo

Former Status: Bounty Hunter

A Bounty Hunter with a very costly price on his head, this skilled individual uses jet propelled attack armor to eliminate his targets clean and fast. He has been hired by Meio to dispose of Hiryu, who's skill is practically equal to Solo's. When it came to combat however, Hiryu came out the victor, not only once in Siberia, but a twice when confronted by him again on Meio's base, The Third Moon.

Name: Ton Pooh

Former Status: Hired Assassin

Ton Pooh was one of the three assassin sisters that were sent after Hiryu to stop him from getting to The Third Moon. Don't let her looks mislead you though. She can be as beutiful as she is deadly on the battlefield due to her kicks. Not much is known about where she's from, but since she speaks the Mandarin dialect of Chinese, she could be from Beijing or from one China's many other provinces...

Name: Captain Beard

Former Status: Capt. of the "Ballog"

Captain Beard is yet another one of Meio's minions. He has had full command over the battle ship "Ballog" before it was destroyed by Strider Hiryu. In a last ditch attempt to save his life, the Captain left his whole crew behind on the ship only to be confronted and defeated by Hiryu in his narrow escape. The following was a picture of the Ballog before its desturction.

As you can see, the Ballog was a ship of raw power. However, with Hiryu infiltrating the ship, it was more than easy to wipe it out of existence with his skill. You can imagine how Captain Beard felt when his prized posession of a ship went down in flames...
