Biography[]
Apple Boy was The Raven's counterpart and one of his/her closest allies. Having become a Raven at the very same time, he served as one of Cortex's most dynamic pilots changing the equipment loadout of his AC with the progression of his abilities. He joined The Raven in numerous missions as an AC pilot.
Quotes[]
- Raven Test
- I’ll do my best!
- Last one!
- (If Fired Upon)I’m on your side!
- (If Defeated)Arrgh!!
AC Esperanza[]
Esperanza can be called the upgraded version of the starter AC. In early missions, he will use a green and red painted version of the AC you are provided with at the start of the game. In later missions Esperanza is slightly improved, but using the same colors and is a middleweight AC designed with direct combat in mind. The battle is not difficult however the vertical launch missiles can be damaging if too many strike home. The Esperanza is well rounded if a little on the slow side. There is not much remarkable to either Apple Boy's piloting or AC. Much like its pilot, it was built for direct combat and has no real "trump cards."

New to the Raven fold, his AC sports a rudimentary setup. He prefers head-to-head battle with as little fooling around as possible. He's an honest man, but his abilities remain in doubt. Becoming a Raven has been a lifelong ambition. |
