Briareos has an extensive amount cybernetic implants, resulting in his body being mostly artificial. He has five eyes mounted on his head, a large main one and four in the corners. In addition to this he has two rabbit-like "ears" complete with their own servo controls. The ears can be use by him to look around corners with their built in cameras. His cybernetics controller, the Hecatonchires system, is name after the same 100 handed giant from Greek mythology. It is capable of controlling dozens of limbs or other cyborg bodies independently from one another, with no additional strain on the user. In the manga, it is pointed out that a cyborg equipped with the Hecatonchires system is able to fully control on its own a whole aircraft carrier. |
