Robot: Getter-1 Robot Weapons/Armanents/Abilities/Other Features: Weapons: Getter Cutter (AKA Getter Razor) - Getter-1 uses the blades on its forearms as slicing weapons. Getter Beam - A beam of purple Getter Energy, fired from Getter-1's stomach. The beam is Getter-1's most powerful weapon, and is particularly dangerous to enemies who are sensitive to Getter Rays (which typically includes most Getter villains). Spiral Getter Beam - Getter-1 fires its Getter Beam while covered in its Getter Wing cape, resulting in it spreading and spiraling outwards, hitting multiple enemies. Getter Tomahawk - A gigantic hand axe, and Getter-1's main melee weapon. The robot can wield two at a time, although it only uses one in the original series. Tomahawk Boomerang - Getter-1 throws the tomahawk. It spins extremely quickly, cutting through anything it hits like a buzzsaw. Typically the weapon will curve in mid-air, hitting moving enemies and returning to the Getter after striking its target. Getter Machine Gun-Pulling out a pair of machine guns, Getter-1 sprays the battlefield with bullets. Missile Machine Gun- A big, Gatling gun-type that fires missiles.

He's smart and likes to keep to himself, and acts like your average teenger does, IE: kind of a brat who sometimes thinks more of himself than he should! He's somewhat reluctant to fight, but at the same time thinks himself to be the /only/ pilot for his Gundam. But, he's still a good kid at heart. Race: Human Occupation: Pilot of RX-78-2 Gundam Short Bio: He was born on Earth, but moved into space at some point, living on Helio 7. He mostly keeps to himself and works on electronics, through he does have friends in Fraw Bow and Hayato Kobayashi Abilities: He's quite skilled, mechanically, able to create a small robot named Haro. He's also quite quick when it comes to learning, ablue to figure out the Gundam's control via a quick read through of it's manual. At it seems there's a special power within him....a new type of power for the human race. Robot: RX-78-2 Gundam Robot Weapons/Armanents/Abilities/Other Features: Built from Luna Titanium Alloy, it's both light and quicker than most other MSes at the time Core Block System The prototype mobile suits produced by the Earth Federation Forces' Operation V, are equipped with a central block which houses the mobile suit's cockpit, control systems and main power source. This core block can eject in case of emergency and unfold into a small Core Fighter. Hardpoints An attachment point for weapons, shields, spare ammunition, or optional mission-specific equipment. Hardpoints can also be used to store carried weapons when a mobile suit needs its manipulators free for other purposes. Learning Computer A critical component of the Gundam's success in combat, the Learning Computer System was similar to a modern day black box. It recorded the data from each of the Gundam's battles for further use. However, the system could also actively learn and improve the capabilities of the Gundam. This was conceived of as a means to get around the difficulty of training pilots. The computer could apply various programs for walking, fighting, and working to the case at hand, independently reaching decisions and making improvements. Once adequate data had been accumulated, the programs could be transplanted, allowing even a machine operated by a novice to perform like a veteran pilot. Heatproof Field A system installed in the RX-78-2 Gundam, which pumps out air to counter the friction heat of atmospheric entry. The mobile suit's internal cooling systems must also be engaged to deal with the heat that penetrates the air field. 60mm Gatling Cannons "Vulcan Guns" The Vulcan guns were 60mm gatling guns stored on the sides of the Gundam's head. Having the greatest rate of fire of all the Gundam's weapons these are primarily used to ward off advancing enemies, shoot down missiles, or hit other fast moving targets. They also made good use as an anti-aircraft and anti-personnel weapons. The Vulcan guns however had a hard time piercing heavy armor (though they had shown the ability to do severe damage to mobile suits if fired at point-blank range) and thus were not often used against larger, more heavily armored foes. Still the Vulcans were useful in preserving ammunition for the Gundam's more powerful weapons such as the beam rifle. Beam Sabers The Gundam was the first mobile suit to ever use a beam-oriented weapon in melee combat. The sabers are stored on the backpack, and can transform from saber to the "Gundam Javelin," a large pole with a three pronged beam at the end. The beam sabers use Minovsky particles held in place by an I-Field to form an effective cutting surface that can slice through nearly any material. The particles for the beam sabers are stored by E-cap in the hilt of the saber, which is recharged from the Gundam's reactor when the saber is returned to its socket. Once activated, beam sabers do not rely on the mobile suit's reactor and can be thrown or discarded as decoys. The beam saber is most often used for close range combat or as an emergency weapon once all other ammunition has been depleted. One can be used as a reserve weapon, or both can be used simultaneously in a twin sword fashion. Beam Javelin The beam javelin is an alternative to the beam saber, it has a higher output than the standard beam saber, and the beam's shape allows for a greater amount of armor penetration ability. The long reach of the weapon gives the RX-78-2 a considerable advantage in close quarters combat. Gundam Hammer/Hyper Hammer A rather unusual weapon, the Gundam Hammer was essentially a large spiked ball attached to a chain. It was used to give the Gundam a ranged melee weapon. The Gundam could either throw or swing the Hammer around itself in order to impact and damage its target through the sheer mass of the hammer. Later, it was upgraded into the Hyper Hammer and had several rockets mounted into the ball in order to give it use in space allowing it to maneuver in zero-gravity also the ability to change it's direction before impact, and to increase the damage it could cause. BAUVA*XBR-M-79-07G (Bauva eXperimental Beam Rifle Medium-range) A revolutionary weapon for it's time, the beam rifle is the primary weapon used by the Gundam. Making use of the Federations E-cap (or "energy capacitor") technology, the rifle uses charged concentrations of Minovsky particles as ammunition. This gives the beam rifle firepower equivalent to that of a battleship's beam cannons. As the Minovsky particles destroy matter on a molecular scale, the beam rifle can penetrate even the thickest armor and destroy its target with a single shot. One weak point of the rifle was its energy limits. The rifle could only be fired 16 times before depleting its energy and becoming useless. BLASH*XHB-L-03/N-STD (Blash eXperimental Hyper Bazooka Long-range) Similar to the Zaku's bazooka, the Hyper Bazooka was a heavy weapon used by the Gundam. Technically a large rocket launcher it could fire several 380mm missiles to attack targets at long range. No mass-production MS's armor is able to stop this weapon. While very powerful, it has a slow rate of fire and a fairly little amount of ammunition. Most oftenly used to take out slow, heavily armored targets. RX*M-Sh-008/S-01025 (Renpou [Federation] eXperimental Medium Shield) Hand-carried, forearm-mounted or stored on the Gundam's backpack, the shield is a simple defense used to block most incoming ballistic and explosive projectiles. Also used to great effect in close quarters battle with enemy mobile suits. Has a view port than can be sealed off with an internal blast plate. The shield is also used to deflect heat away from the mobile suit when undergoing atmospheric re-entry.

Though he appears boisterous and arrogant at times, he's also quite supportive and clever in battle. All this, however, hides his own worries and is a means to support others, who he feels are the true heroes. Race: Human Occupation: Pilot of Gurren, co-pilot of Gurren Lagann, Team Gurren leader. Short Bio: Born in the underground Jeeha village, he reached the surface with his father at a young age. However, he returned to the village soon after, and spent his time wishing to return. His wish was granted when a large machine fell onto the village, leaving a hole to the surface. After his partner, Simon, defeated the beast, they left for the surface, deciding to fight Beastman Empire, ruler of the dark continent Abilities: He has decent skills with a sword, allowing him to fight hand to hand if need be. Despite his loud personality, he's also quite the tactician, allowing him to quickly figure out a battle. His endurance is, quite frankly, amazing, and his fighting spirit is strong enough to let him do the impossible. Robot: Gurren Robot Weapons/Armanents/Abilities/Other Features: Sunglasses that can be used as swords, and the ability to combine with Lagann.

Speaking of my OG, you mind if he had one of the Astray Gundams? They WERE a secret project on Heliopolis in the original seed setting, so I figure them being in Helio 7 would make sense! Also they're rad and I want to use one but I have no idea about Astray's plot.
