Seriously though... Schwarzwald is the coolest character in the entire show.
Sit back and hear the story of Schwarzwald.
Spoilers included:
Micheal Seebach was a reporter for Paraidgm press, it was his job to expose the truth and present it to the people, not an easy task in a place like Paradigm City.
Mysteries surrounded him, but he was getting no where, he had to know what was going on. He was tired of the BS Paradigm Corp was feeding him, and he was even more frustrated with the fact that the people of paradigm seemed to be completely oblivious to their own history, origin, reality.
He made it his job to combat the forces of ignorance and lies, to investigate, to discover, to know the truth! he was going to find it no matter what, and he would bring this truth to the people, wether they wanted it or not.
That was the moment that micheal seebach ceased to exist, and a new entitiy, the seeker of the truth and the crusader of knowldege was born.... his name was Schwarzwald.
Schwarzwald: German for black forest. From the tale of the little boy who ventured deep into the forest to find grandpa, the wise man who knew, against the wishes of his mother.
So one day all his searching led him to one place.. He ventured deep underground, a place that strikes terror in the heats of all, and where the most bizzare of events take place.
There he found a megadeus, a giant machine that represented the power of god, an archetype of The Big O.
He managed to unlock it from its chains.... but in doing so he was burned severly, requiring the excessive use of bandages....
When roger smith was hired to look into the dissappearance of Micheal Seebach, he found schwarzwald and his archetyepe, but the unexpected factor of R. Dorothy Wayneright, activated the abandoned fossil and managed to get itself destroyed by its own decendant.
Shaken, but not finished, Schwarzwald knew he still needed to find the truth, if he couldn't find it underground, he would find it abroad, outside paradigm.
No one knows what exactly schwazwald found, or learned, but whatever it was, it gave him some sort of distrubed clarity.
But what we do know is that somewhere near the deserts of JFK mark, schwarzwald found somthing, an abandoned megadeus... but not just any megadeus.....a BIG! Big Duo a megadeus that could fly!
The time was right, schwarzwald knew the truth, He had to destroy the corupt elite class of dome dwellers whch had paradigm corp. as its head. They were the biggest obstacle in finding the truth.
Now he finally had the power in big duo to do this, to bring the truth to the surface no matter how violent or destructive he had to be to accomplish that goal. But one obstacle in his way was the bothersome Roger Smith.
He was nothing more than a lacky for the Paradigm Corp, they played on his naive notions of justice and protecting the innocent. The truth is more important of that the lives of the corrupt dome dwellers who leech off the people.
On one fatefull day, there happend a Clash of titans in Paradigm's Central Dome.
Big Duo, piloted by Schwarzwald, the man who would destroy Paradigm Corp and reveal the truth.
Big O, piloted by Roger Smith, the man who cared not for the truth or paradigm, only to stop a madman who threatened to kill more innocent people.
There commenced the greatest megadeus battle in Big O history, and it was all going Schwarzwald's way, until a premature sense of victory and overconfidence made him open for a swift attack by Roger.
and in a gorious end, Big Duo was decaptiated and left for scrap metal..... it was over.....untill... it started moving....standing..... and walking on its own?~!
Schwarzwald had alreadly bailed for his life yet the zombie megadeus big duo slowly crawled out of a bombed out crater and collapsed while reaching out to somthing....
This caught Schwarzwald by surprise..... had he been mistaken to think he could control a Megadeus?
..... and this is where the schwarzwald story become unclear.... again he wanders out into the desert..... but this time he found it..... whatever it was.... but he never returned to deliver his story to the people.... his body was found in the desert near the ruins of coney island......
yet the message of schwarzwald did not die! His voice still rang through the domes and walls of paradigm....he prophcied the the final days of mankind, and his spirit continued to wander paradigm in search of the truth....
and occaisionally to teach someone a lesson.... as in the case of Alan Gabriel.
What was it the Scwhwarzwald learned? And why the hell hasn't he told us? This and much more will be revealed in season 3, via flashbacks (like in act 17), narrations, or through more unconventional means (act 24)
