Terminators are fearsome automatons from another plane of existence. Fearless and implacable, a terminator pursues its targets relentlessly until one of them is dead. False Flesh. Terminators are coated with artificial flesh that makes them appear human. This skin radiates warmth and can even bruise or bleed when cut, reinforcing the deception. Strip away this skin, however, and a terminator’s true form stands revealed as a gleaming metal skeleton with glowing red eyes. Implacable Assassins. Terminators are deployed for a single purpose: to track down and eliminate people that their elusive masters consider threats. When a terminator appears, it begins investigating its target, acting inconspicuous and unassuming so as not to draw attention to itself. Once it has its target in its sights, a terminator throws subtlety to the wind and advances on them like an unstoppable force. A terminator cannot be reasoned with, and it will kill anyone that tries to interfere with its mission. It will pursue its target wherever they go, never resting and never stopping. The victim can run to the ends of the earth, but eventually they will tire. And then, the terminator will catch them.
