Truth & Consequence

It's time for the rest of the Protectorate warjacks! If you haven't seen part 1, it can be found  here. Let's not beat around the bush, it's time to start with our next Warjack. Purifier - C So as of writing this, this guy is pretty new. The thing about Purifiers is... I honestly think they're pretty damn good. The problem is we also have Dervishes.
