The architect of the AMA-ESS program and Michelle’s protector. A leading scientist in applied energy technology, known for his practical ingenuity, Hammond grew disillusioned with Encore’s ruthlessness and became Michelle’s surrogate father and the moral compass of her life.
He designed the AMA-ESS 05 and its Stabilizer Core to channel Michelle’s unstable energy into a usable system, turning her greatest weakness into her strength, and crafted upgrades like the Hydrocell and the Proton Ultra Cannon. He is the proof that even inside Encore, some choose to protect rather than exploit.
