(Super Robot) Arskannon
Name: Arskannon
Type: Super Robot
Mobility Type: Air
Control Type: Manual
Years Running: 55
Previous Records: None
Appearance:
Height- 45m
Armament: Charged Particle Cannon- A massive weapon mounted on the right arm capable of generating a beam of charged particles. The beam is equal in power to the particle cannon equipped on the Macross and will essentially annihilate anything in its 2 mile wide path. Ideal for large and/or low mobility targets (ships, colonies, etc.). Takes a few minutes to charge between shots.
Chest Bomber x 2- Hidden underneath the chest plates are twin plasma launchers. After the plates open up, the twin launchers will fire two large, red balls of energy. Upon making contact with something, the balls will detonate in a massive explosion. The Chest Busters are significantly weaker than the Charged Particle Cannon but are still capable of taking out most spacecraft with a single strike and can do serious damage with the explosion.
Gatling Laser x 2- These gatling lasers are four medium range laser guns mounted on a rotating ring on each of the wrists. The lasers on each ring are linked to fire simultaneously and the rings will spin, creating a sort of cylinder of laser fire. Ideal for single targets as they will rip through most enemies with ease.
Multi-Directional Laser Turret x 2- By far the weakest of Arskannon’s weapons, these lasers are stored in the fold drives (which are the large cylinders mounted on its back). When they need to fire, they extend out from the top of the drives. The turrets will fire lasers in all directions. Only really good for when the enemy is surrounding.
Armor: Spiritual Aura- A spherical energy field created from spirit energy that encircles the immediate area around the mech. This aura defends absolutely against conventional weaponry like energy beams, missiles and kinetic munitions (i.e. bullets). Its only weakness is other forms of spiritual energy which will cancel out the aura.
History: A robot built by the Utnapish alien civilization to use in their war against the Zentradi and the Supervision Army. It was created using Utnapish’s dimension gate technology and is among of the Utnapish’s most destructive weapons. Fortunately, mech of this caliber are rare due to a lack of pilots with the necessary traits to wield mech equipped with the Extra-Dimensional Drive. Arskannon was designed specifically for long range combat and possess enough firepower to wipe out entire fleets.
Special Attacks: Shedu Mode- Arskannon’s body transforms itself into a giant cannon by retracting its limbs into itself and connecting the charged particle cannon to its head. In this form, Arskannon loses most of its mobility and what mobility it has left is used almost solely to aim itself. It also loses the ability to use any of its other weapons. In exchange, it can repeatedly fire its particle cannon because almost all of Arskannon’s energy is diverted to the particle cannon. Although it is able to cause epic levels of destruction in Shedu mode, it is almost impossible to use effectively without significant cover support.
Special Features: Extra-Dimensional Drive- Using a miniaturized dimension gate, the Extra-Dimensional Drive taps into the limitless energy of a spiritual sub-dimension. This gives the mech the potential to have an infinite amount of energy. However, the dimensional gate requires a certain amount of spiritual energy to operate, much like an gasoline engine needs a spark plug to run.
Empathy Processor- A system that converts the emotions of the pilot into spiritual energy and then amplifies it, creating a large enough catalyst to run the Extra-Dimensional Drive. This device also allows for the mech to be controlled by the emotions of its pilot as well. The major drawback is that it is extremely dangerous because it can quickly exhaust most would-be pilots to the point they are made comatose or even die. Thus a failsafe was installed that would disable all functions of the mech before such a thing could happen. Even so, the only way to use such a system with any kind of effectiveness is to have a pilot of extreme mental stamina.
Fold Drive- A miniaturized faster-than-light engine that creates a wormhole through space for the mech to travel through. It pretty much functions the same as the fold drives on the Macross or other similar craft. The only difference is the “bubble” of space that is taken along during the fold is much smaller, limited to only things directly next to the mech.
