The Subjects

The Subjects are Grimm that have been experimented on by the Grimm Control Program, given artificial Enhancers and augments. In total, twenty-four were captured, studied, and experimented on. Each one was given the name of a different demon from various Remnant legends and assigned a letter of the Ancient Mistralian alphabet.

ALPHA
The ALPHA was the first Subject created. The ALPHA is a Solitas Beowolf that was found inside the ruins of a frontier settlement in the kingdom of Atlas known as Firma. In order to garner more favors and funding from sponsors in the upcoming presentation, the scientists tasked with augmenting the Grimm grew ambitious. In addition to specially designed Enhancers and a brain, they grafted on the tail of a juvenile Deathstalker after removing the Beowolf's original tail. Later tests showed that the tail was capable of producing both venom and antivenom. The name of the brain donor was recorded as "Praesina, T.", the gender of the donor was female, and the assigned name is Ashema.

BETA
The BETA was the second Subject created, and the only to be commisioned and bought during auction. The BETA was a Geist found inside a burned homestead in Mistral, captured, and forced into a suit of armor. The BETA was given standard augmentations, though his nature as a Geist prevented him from receiving Enhancers. The name of the brain donor was "Flax, T.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name was Corson. He was bought by Jacques Schnee and killed during a training session by his daughter, Weiss Schnee.

GAMMA
The GAMMA was the third Subject created. The GAMMA was a Solitas Ursa captured in the same mission as the ALPHA. The GAMMA was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Blanc, A.", the gender of the donor was female, and the assigned name was Rakshasa. She was killed during an escape attempt shortly after her post-exam combat trials.

DELTA
The DELTA was the fourth Subject created. The DELTA was an Ursa Major found in the mountains of Mistral. The DELTA was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Chintz, D", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name was Gadreel. He was killed by an exploding building following a successful raid on the White Fang.

EPSILON
The EPSILON was the fifth Subject created. The EPSILON is a Creep that was found in an expansive cave system in Mistral. The EPSILON was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Bright, E.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Saleos. He escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

ZETA
The ZETA was the sixth Subject created. The ZETA is a Lancer that was found in the floating islands of Lake Matsu in Mistral. The ZETA was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Sepia, B.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Seir. He escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

ETA
The ETA was the seventh Subject created. The ETA is a Lancer Queen that was found in the floating islands of Lake Matsu in Mistral. The ETA was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Topaz, H.", the gender of the donor was female, and the assigned name is Pythia. She escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

THETA
The THETA was the eighth Subject created. The THETA was a Griffon found flying close to Mountain Glenn in Vale. The THETA was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Cerise, R.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name was Halphas. He was killed after a weapons malfunction sent him into a fatal dive during a patrol.

IOTA
The IOTA was the ninth Subject created. The IOTA was a Geist found in the subterranean levels of Mountain Glenn in Vale. The IOTA was given standard augmentations, though its nature as a Geist prevented it from receiving Enhancers. In addition, the IOTA received a total of six other brains. The names of the brain donors were "Claret, P.", "Glo, D.", "Dun, B.", "Indigo, E.", "Puce, R.", "Silver, A.", and "Umber, S.". The donors' genders were, respectively: male, female, male, female, male, male, and male. The assigned name was Paimon. Paimon died some months after surgery due to complications.

The IOTA is considered to be the Grimm Control Program's crowning achievement, beyond both the TAU's mechanical prostheses and the OMEGA's advanced and powerful Enhancers. Paimon was given seven different brains and, for a time, was considered "the smartest creature on the planet". The IOTA gave the GCP valuable insights on how Grimm worked thanks to the dedication of its interviewer and personal therapist, Specialist Symponia Roseus. However, due to the existence of seven brains in its body and the mystery surrounding Grimm biology--that of Geists and Seers especially--the IOTA developed several mental disorders and was usually unstable mentally and emotionally. It was due to the taxing energy requirements of the brains and the quickly fracturing mind of the Subject that scientists agreed to euthanize it. The IOTA was forced out of the brains it was possessing and into its corporeal form. It was then euthanized.

For reasons unknown to the Research Group, the mask refused to dissolve with the rest of the body, and even showed signs of harboring a fragment of life within it still when it was implanted into the OMEGA.

KAPPA
The KAPPA was the tenth Subject created. The KAPPA is a Boarbatusk that was found near an oasis in Vacuo. The KAPPA was given standard augmentations, though the Endurance Enhancer was given in a stronger dosage than typical. The name of the brain donor was "Vermili, O.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Mammon. He escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

LAMBDA
The LAMBDA was the eleventh Subject created. The LAMBDA is a Seer that was found hiding inside a cargo container on a beached tanker ship on the coast of Mistral. The LAMBDA was given standard augmentations, though his nature as a Seer prevented him from receiving Enhancers. The only exception to this is the Strength Enhancer. The name of the brain donor was "Zeleny, G.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Abraxas. He escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

MU
The MU was the twelfth Subject created. The MU is a Sea Feilong that was found off the coast of Menagerie. The MU was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Okun, M.", the gender of the donor was female, and the assigned name is Abezeth. She escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

NU
The NU was the thirteenth Subject created. The NU is a King Taijitu that was found underneath a large dune in the deserts of Vacuo. The NU was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Rimal, A.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Gremory. He escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

XI
The XI was the fourteenth Subject created. The XI is a Nevermore that was found flying near Mountain Glenn in Vale. The XI was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Noir, O.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Molech. He escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

OMICRON
The OMICRON was the fifteenth Subject created. The OMICRON is a Manticore that was found flying in the mountain ranges of northern Mistral. The OMICRON was given standard augmentations, though the Endurance Enhancer and Strength Enhancer were given in stronger doses than typical. The name of the brain donor was "Kirsche, R.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Aeshma. He triggered the "OMICRON Crisis", which was a series of escapes spurred on by his own.

PI
The PI was the sixteenth Subject created. The PI is a Goliath that was found in Mountain Glenn in Vale. The PI was given standard augmentations, though the Endurance Enhancer was given in a stronger dosage than typical. The name of the brain donor was "Aprico, S.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Eligos. He escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

RHO
The RHO was the seventeenth Subject created. The RHO is an Apathy that was found in the suburbs of an abandoned city in Atlas known as Core. The RHO was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Verdigris, K.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Sabnock. He escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

SIGMA
The SIGMA was the eighteenth Subject created. The SIGMA was a Beringel found in a ruined settlement in the swamps of Mistral. The SIGMA was given standard augmentations, though the Strength Enhancer was given in a stronger dosage than typical. The name of the brain donor was "Fuchsia, B.", the gender of the donor was female, and the assigned name was Eisheth. She escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis", but was killed soon after when she resisted recapture.

TAU
The TAU was the nineteenth Subject created. The TAU is a Deathstalker that was found in the tundra of Atlas. The TAU was given standard augmentations, though the Endurance Enhancer was given in the strongest dosage ever recorded for a Subject. The name of the brain donor was "Amber, G.", the gender of the donor was female, and the assigned name is Naamah.

The TAU received mechanical replacements for all of her legs and eyes due to complications from before, during, and after her capture. In addition, her stinger was replaced with a weapon capable of shifting between a Dust cannon similar in design to the one found on the Colossus mech and a stinger, though it is incapable of poisoning targets like her original. She also had two large metal plates attached to her pincers to act as giant shields. She escaped following the OMEGA's destruction of OLYMPUS.

Psychiatric examination reports indicate that, for an indiscernible reason, she rejected the brain initially. Because of this, she developed Dissociative Identity Disorder, and has two distinct personalities. One is described as meek, and the other confident. Studies were underway on how and why some Grimm rejected brains shortly before OLYMPUS was destroyed.

UPSILON
The UPSILON was the twentieth Subject created. The UPSILON was a Sabyr found in the suburbs of an abandoned city in Atlas known as Core. The UPSILON was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Beryl, C.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name was Valac. He was killed by the OMEGA's destruction of OLYMPUS.

PHI
The PHI was the twenty-first Subject created. The PHI is a Sphinx that was found flying in the mountain ranges of northern Mistral. The PHI was given standard augmentations, though the Endurance Enhancer was given in a stronger dosage than usual. The name of the brain donor was "Henna, O.", the gender of the donor was female, and the assigned name is Lechies. She escaped following the "OMICRON Crisis".

CHI
The CHI was the twenty-second Subject created. The CHI was an Ursa Major found outside a frontier settlement in Vale. The CHI was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Granite, S.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name was Gusion. He was killed by the OMEGA's destruction of OLYMPUS.

PSI
The PSI was the twenty-third Subject created. The PSI was a Creep found in the subterranean levels of Mountain Glenn in Vale. The PSI was given standard augmentations. The name of the brain donor was "Sable, M.", the gender of the donor was female, and the assigned name was Hauras. She was killed by the OMEGA's destruction of OLYMPUS.

OMEGA
The OMEGA was the thwenty-fourth and last Subject created. The OMEGA is an Alpha Beowolf that was found in the mountains close to OLYMPUS in Atlas. The OMEGA was given standard augmentations, though the Optical Enhancer had less pronounced effects than normal due to injuries sustained prior to capture. Due to other, possibly related injuries, part of the OMEGA's faceplate is broken and most of the spikes are either broken off completely or damaged. The name of the brain donor was "Roseus, O.", the gender of the donor was male, and the assigned name is Apollyon. He escaped following his destruction of OLYMPUS.

The OMEGA is considered to be the most advanced and powerful Grimm ever created by the GCP. Not only are its augmentations the most powerful made, but it received the transplanting of two separate Grimm species and even a non-Grimm animal. It is also the only Subject to have part of another Subject transplanted into it, with the mask of the IOTA making its new home in his chest. In addition, the venom of a Deathstalker was given to a custom-stitched venom sac for future production by his body. Because of his missing and damaged spikes, the OMEGA was also given a full set of metal spikes bolted over the stumps of the old ones.
