Heaven Smile

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Heaven Smile is the standard type of enemy that the player faces in the Killer7 metaverse. Upon seeing the player, they will release one of their characteristic laughs, and begin approaching slowly. On reaching close range, they will lunge at their target and explode, delivering a severe amount of damage (on the highest difficulty, resulting in instant death for most personas). They are ordinarily invisible, using a sort of active camouflage.

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

The Heaven Smile is a terrorist organisation which is operated by Kun Lan. It consists of giggling psychopathic mutants, where in some cases are actual people touched by his God Hand or infected with a virus; in other cases, they are actually animated corpses or artificial humans with organs coming from various sources, including a black market of children's organs run by Curtis Blackburn and Pedro Montana.

These walking bombs were used to disrupt the political dealings of the United States, and because of their invisibility, they were impossible to combat without Harman Smith and the Killer Seven; specifically, it is Garcian Smith's Vision Ring that allows them to see the Heaven Smiles.

After identifying himself as Emir Parkreiner to the computer, the ring is rendered unusable. He is still able to attack them using his powerful Golden Gun in the final mission "Lion."

Spoilers end here.

The HS can be quite tough; able to lose heads or limbs without dying. However, most Smiles have a weak point somewhere on their bodies; a single shot here instantly kills the creature and causes its body to dissolve into a large quantity of blood.

According to "A Hand in Killer7", Smiles are mindless. They smile and laugh because they are in constant ecstasy. They have only one purpose: to kill humans, killing themselves in the process.

In Killer7, some of the Vinculum Gates have unique Smiles hiding in them. These Smiles can be quite dangerous when compared to the normal Smiles.

[edit] Heaven Smile Types

  1. HEAVEN SMILE - The basic HS, a humanoid, typically reddish-brown with darker speckles, glowing eyes, and a mouth of sharp teeth, always held open in a smile. Various other colors, including blue, green, and yellow are sometimes encountered; color appears to have no bearing on a Smile's abilities. They will either slowly walk towards you, or can sometimes be seen jogging at you.
  2. CAMELLIA SMILE - A placid white HS covered in specks of blood. They appear to be working with the Smiths, but if approached or shot they will run away screaming until they explode. Killing one by almost any means earns a lot of blood. The blood covering its body symbolizes that the Smile had betrayed the other Smiles.
  3. MICRO SMILE - A small, flying Smile which is said to move supplies between nests. Unlike other Smiles, their explosive attack causes temporary blindness instead of damage. They're well worth shooting: the red/blue ones grant a large amount of blood, while the yellow/black ones restore full health to the personas.
  4. DUPLICATOR SMILE - A Smile with a humanoid torso hanging upside-down from a much larger growth of flesh and tentacles that can cover a room. It lays eggs that hatch into more HS. Its weakness is the brightly colored nodes scattered across its body; Dan's Collateral Shot remains the most efficient way to kill it. Another way is by use of Mask's Ultimate attack (lvl.5)
  5. SPEED SMILE - A very fast Smile. Its spazzing movement makes it really hard to take out its weak spot: its head.
  6. SPIRAL SMILE - A Smile in the form of a sphere covered in faces. Its orange face (surrounded by a green star shape) is its weak point. They jingle as they roll, so you can hear one coming.
  7. ANOTHER SMILE - This Smile climbs on ceilings. It drops down to attack or when shot.
  8. BOMBHEAD SMILE - A sensitive smile. Its only weakpoint is its head which is sometimes shielded. If shot when the head is shielded, or on any other body part, it will explode.
  9. DIVER SMILE - This is like a normal Smile, but it suddenly drops from the sky on a jetpack, usually very near its target. Like Spiral Smiles, you'll hear them coming; keep your ears perked for the sound of one hitting the ground.
  10. MOTHER SMILE - Like a duplicator but mobile. Its legs are very short, so it walks with its arms. While its weak point is vulnerable to other attacks, Dan's Collateral Shot remains the most efficient way to kill it.
  11. POISON SMILE - a purple, gas-emitting Smile. It must be shot in the weak point or it will revive.
  12. PHANTOM SMILE - This Smile has an enlarged body part, usually its head or a hand, that is its weak point. If shot anywhere else, it will instantly teleport to its target and explode. It can still be stopped with a Counter-Attack, but it must be perfectly timed.
  13. GIANT SMILE - A very large smile that falls on its victim. Its eye is only vulnerable when open.
  14. ULMEYDA SMILE - A normal Smile with a t-shirt. The shirt is a large and obvious weak point. They typically ignore passerby unless they are attacked on some other part of their bodies. Killing them nets the usual blood, as well as a coin that can be used in Ulmeyda's city. These Smiles are great targets for stocking up on Thick Blood in the Cloudman mission.
  15. BACKSIDE SMILE - A floating smile with large scythes on its arms. Repeated fire to the scythes turns the monster around, revealing the bright yellow weak point on its back.
  16. PROTECTOR SMILE - A large hulking smile that only Mask can kill.
  17. PROTECTOR Z SMILE - Similar to the Protector Smile, only Mask's Shock Shell (lvl.1) can kill this one.
  18. BROKEN SMILE - A jet-like smile that flies toward victims. The cockpit is a weakpoint, but it's quite difficult to hit. Like Spiral Smiles, keep your ears open to hear their jetpacks start up.
  19. CERAMIC SMILE - A smile found only once in the Fun House during the Encounter mission. This semi-cowardly Smile will run around the room you encounter it in, and can only be killed by hitting its exposed heart. He's tricky to hit because he'll always try to turn tail and run whenever you lock onto him.
  20. PROTECTOR ZZ SMILE - Only Mask's Focus Shells (lvl.2) can kill this one.
  21. MITHRIL SMILE - An armored smile. Shoot off its armor then kill it or hit the critical spot without hitting any armor.
  22. LASER SMILE - Shoot this one first before it shoots you. If the laser does hit you, the Smile will kill itself.
  23. ROLLER SMILE - A normal smile curled up in a ball that rolls towards you. Hit its weakpoint. Be careful, its is EXTREMELY quick and tough to target.
  24. TIMER SMILE - This Smile can only be killed by shooting the red spots on its body. When you shoot all but one of the spots, it'll go crazy and come running right at you at full speed.
  25. GALACTIC TOMAHAWK SMILE - A smile that fires missiles at you. It's immobile, but extremely dangerous!
  26. BLACK SMILE - An invincible smile which can only be killed by Garcian's Golden Gun.
