That’s one way to deal with an unexpected run-in with spooky cybernetic gangsters!

There is no force more fearsome in the universe than two brave souls with questionable self-preservation instincts and access to a blue plastic tarp.

The Dire Dogs seem to be just chock full of nasty surprises.

Rabid technophiles, the Dire Dogs have made a name for themselves by augmenting themselves with experimental tech more than any other Outer Trinity gang. This grants them strange abilities, like the ability to temporarily “sync up” with their fellow Dogs.

Uh oh. That’s *definitely* not supposed to happen!
