The Metal Devil is a machine in Horizon Zero Dawn. It is not a contemporary machine; rather
it is one of three machines of the ancient Chariot Line, manufactured by the robotics and
technology corporation Faro Automated Solutions during the mid 21 st century. As such, it was
designated by FAS as the FAS-BOR7 Horus and was also called the Horus Titan. However,
one swarm of Chariot robots, including Horses, went out of control, becoming the Faro
Plague, which ultimately eradicated all life on Earth.

History
Pre-Extinction

The FAS-BOR7 Horus was designed by FAS' owner and CEO Ted Faro, and developed as part
of FAS' Chariot Line of combat robots. Faro designed the Chariot line to operate in swarms
similar to those of certain insects. Horses were the colossal
"queens" of a swarm, replicating
other swarm robots as well as themselves, in numbers that invariably overwhelmed any enemy
force. Additionally, they themselves were formidable combat machines, adept at tearing into
and destroving huge enemy fortifications. They could consume biomass as fuel in the event of
fuel line interdiction, and their network was virtually unbreakable.

Appearance
Metal Devils are colossal, large enough to easily crawl over a mountain. Resembling
a giant lobster, sea scorpion, or similar aquatic arthropod, a Metal Devil stands on ten
legs with four long, triple-jointed legs supporting the segmented "tail" while six shorter
legs support the front of the main chassis. Covered in thick, black armor plating, it has
four massive tentacles at its front. Each one is as least as long as the Metal Devil's
body and is tipped with an enormous drill, designed to penetrate into heavily armored
fortifications and bunkers.
