Machinery Warrior 
”I'm Wodan Ymir.
The Sword of Magnus.
There's nothing I cannot cut!”-Wodan Ymir, Machinery Warrior
In the depths of the Earth Cradle, one of the main mecha research centers and a veritable fortress, a new miraculous technology was developed. Self-replicating, self-regenerating and self-evolving nanomachines that could greatly improve any mecha they were applied to-and even their pilots. This technology was baptized Machine Cells.
Alas, soon enough it became clear the power granted by Machine Cells was not whitout price. Prolongued exposure to the machine soon infects the pilot with delusional feelings of invincibility and megalomania, plus extreme stress on the body. In the case of lesser beings, a messy death soon follows in a matter of months, weeks, or even days. In the case of those who don't succumb too soon, even if the Machine Cells grant them great power and resilience, seeking to face multiple armies head-on is still a plea for death.
Some theorize that given some centuries of “incubation”, a Machinery Warrior could become a veritable demigod as his Machine Cells keep improving him, but that's nothing more than a theoretical thesis. What's the chance such a pilot could stay put for so much time?
BECOMING A MACHINERY WARRIOR This path is taken both by Real Pilots seeking to expand their machine's resilience and Super Pilots seeking to refine their mechas.

Weapon and Armor Proficiencies: A Machinery Warrior doesn't gain any new Proficiencies.
Machine Cells: At first level the Machinery Warrior picks a mecha he has acess to. It gains the following benefits
-DR and Natural Armor increases by 1 for every Machinery Warrior level.
-HP increases by 25 for every Machinery Warrior level.
-Energy increases by 5 for every Machinery Warrior level.
-Saves bonus increases by 1 plus 1/3 Machinery Warrior levels.
Machinery Weapons: At first level pick two in-built weapons from the Mecha chosen for Machine Cells (a set of Twin-linked weapons counts as one weapon for this). The Machinery Warrior gains an enanchment bonus on attack and damage rolls with those two weapons equal to his Machinery Warrior level, up to +10.
Spirit On the Machinery: Each level of Machinery Warrior increases the maximum number of spirit points of the character by 4. In addition the character learns one spirit at levels 1, 5 and 9. Those Spirits only cost half the normal amount of spirit to use, or subtract 2 * Machinery Warrior level + 1 * other levels from the SP cost, whichever discount is smaller.
Self-Regenerating: The Machinery Warrior's mecha gains the Regeneration and Reactor I property, that increases an extra 1 at levels 3, 5, 7 and 9. This doesn't stack with Nanomachines or Reactor gained from other sources. The Machinery Warrior himself also gains the same grade of Nanomachines. However, the Machinery Warrior can no longer gain health or energy from any external source (including accessories, potions, and magic) nor from any spirits, including their own. He may still gain healing and energy from any racial ability, feat, class feature, or anything inherent to the Machinery Warrior or his mecha.
You Cannot Stop Me: At 3rd level 1/hour when the Machinery Warrior or his mecha would lose HP that would reduce them below 50% of their own maximum HP (excluding temporary hitpoints), they may lose only enough HP to bring themselves to only 50% of their maximum HP instead. Any further damage from the same source that triggered this is ignored until the start of your next turn.
Machine Cell Maneuver: At levels 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 the Machinery Warrior learns a new Maneuver from a school they already know, needing to meet all prerequisites. You may use your Bab+Machinery Warrior level instead of Pilot level for purposes of determining that Maneuver's effects (but not learning them), and increase any of their DCs by an amount equal to 1/2 your Machinery Warrior level. Notice Machinery Warrior levels don't fully increase Pilot level.
Machine Cell Stance: At levels 4 and 10 the Machinery Warrior learns a new Stance from a school they already knew, needing to meet all prerequisites. You may use your Bab+Machinery Warrior level instead of Pilot level for purposes of determining that Maneuver's effects (but not learning them), and increase any of their DCs by an amount equal to1/2 your Machinery Warrior level. Notice Machinery Warrior levels don't fully increase Pilot level.
Machine Cell Might: At 5th level the Machinery Warrior gains +2 to an Ability Score of his choice as the Machine Cells augment their body.
Machinery Cannot be Stopped: at level 6 1/hour when the Machinery Warrior or his mecha would lose HP that would reduce them below 75% or 25% of their own maximum HP (excluding temporary hitpoints), they may lose only enough HP to bring themselves to only 75% or 25% of their own maximum HP instead respectively. Any further damage from the same source that triggered this is ignored until the start of your next turn.
Adaptative Machine Cell: At 7th level as a swift action the Machinery Warrior can double its Mecha movement speeds, its ranged weapon's range or its melee reach. This bonus lasts until this ability is activated again.
Flawless Frame: At 8th level both the Machinery Warrior and his mecha become fully immune to critical hits, diseases and poisons.
Advanced Machine Cell Might: At 9th level the Machinery Warrior gains +2 to two diferent ability scores of his choice. You cannot pick the same ability score than in Machine Cell Might.
Eternal Machinery: At 10th level the Machinery Warrior stops aging, and will never die of old age. In addition his mecha isn't automatically destroyed when it reaches 0 HP, but instead is just limited to one move or standard action per round. If he chooses to use a standard action while on negative HP, then he deals damage to himself equal to 1/2 its max HP, bypassing any and all of his own defenses (there's just how much Machine Cells can keep up with). The mecha is only fully destroyed if reduced to negative HP equal to its Max HP, and during that Nanomachines keep working (altough the Machinery Warrior himself cannot take actions). In addition once per day if his mecha would be destroyed, he can choose to don't eject. If he does so, his mecha will raise again at full HP, energy and ammo at the start of the next round.
