Zeugma's Body Crystals

[Spartan Warlord]

I was bored so i re-read through some datafils and saw Zeugma's picture and what i make out as 4crystals on her chest...are they similar to Alk's in that she could give them to people to be processed into master zoalords???

[Juggernought]

It's possible i believe since she was created as a replacement to Alkanphel. Notice her design does resemble him in many ways. Looking back at it now, it's almost like she is a successful clone of him, or they recreated the process used for him just made her female and less powerful.

[Spartan Warlord]

well she was created to be his second in command so you'd think so...id like to see Krons Zoalord from before his Bio-Lord Upgrade you would assume he would look similar to Alk aswell

[W'Kar]

Zeugma and Kron were made to replace Alkanphel.

As far as the creators were concerned, Alk was dead.

She was processed from a human form. She wasn't born a zoalord like Alkanphel was. So I would imagine a combination of that and a more rushed job of it, caused her to have hlaf the power of the original.

Yes, she is practically identical to him, but remember that in WG zoalords have a sort of tendency to resemble a zoalord line of design.

Kron I doubt looked like Alkanphel or Zeugma. I think he looked more a cross between Alkanphel and Imakarum.

Actually, the Supreme Zoalord's zoacrystals were grown, not taken from Alkanphel.

Actually, the Supreme Zoalord's zoacrystals were grown, not taken from Alkanphel.

Actually both, Balcus grew the crystals from scrapings he had gotten from Alkanphel's zoa-crystal.

So they were taken from him, just not whole peices.

[McAvoy]

Well that is what I meant. I sort of a in hurry writing that.

That actually suggests that maybe zoacrystals can repair themselves, maybe not on their own.

[*zeo]

Yes, we've seen at least one zoa-crystal repaired in the Manga though it took months.

[McAvoy]

Well considering a zoacrystal can basically be re-cloned by a taking a piece from the original and making a whole new one, suggests that zoacrystals even shattered/missing pieces/broken can easily repair itself.

Which means what happened to Proto Guyver, he could have been repaired if given time. Though, I think Proto Guyver's zoacrystal is more unique since it probably has the same properties as a control medal. So maybe the control medal aspect of that crystal was damaged and the remaining parts were absorbed into Greg Howzer's body, giving him the Hybrid Guyver form.

[Zoaknight]

Okay, thats new! I had no idea that there was a Zoalord that could self heal his own Zoacrystal over time (my guess is its Alk, right? lol). That raises another question, Zoalords can heal fast like a guyver yes? And like a guyver, who can only be killed by destroying its control medal, a Zoalord can only be killed by destroying its zoacrystal, right? also, i noticed that zoalords have crystals all over their bodies, not just their forheads (the main crystal), are these body crystals considered zoacrystals as well or are they something else altogether? what function do they serve? additional weapons and power ups?

oh, last question. You know how Chronos creates Proto-Zoalords to test a new zoalord design before implimenting it? well, does this mean that back in ancient times when the creators still ruled the earth that they must have created a number of prototype master zoalords before they finally created Alkanphel? It seems unlikely to me that considering the difficulty it takes to perfect a supreme zoalord, and considering that Alk is supposed to be the most powerful living being the creators ever made, that the creators could have given life to a perfect master zoalord on the first try, am i right or am i wrong?

[*zeo]

Imakarum didn't self heal his zoacrystal, he was placed inside Alkanphel's Bio-Tube on Silha Island for about 6 months.

The 12 Zoacrystals were created from shards from Alkanphel's but that presumably took time and like growing any crystal, probably needed some help in the process. They are crystals after all and crystals only form under certain conditions.

Though it is unknown if Alkanphel's can self heal but since his doesn't show any damage then presumeably it can, since it was believed a Zoalord could not survive without the Zoacrystal though it has been revealed that they can. However he probably just spent some time in his Bio-Tube.

The Zoacrystal can help sustain a Zoalord's life, even if they get sliced in half, but only so long as there is still energy in the Zoacrystal. So once they exhaust that power then they die. But this may not hold true for all Zoalord's though the fate of Purg'stall is not entirely certain since it was hinted that his body was taken to a special location in the Manga.

Zoalord's do not all have the same abilities but aside from Khan, who can absorb and use the mass of other zoanoids just like Aptom does, no other zoalord has shown the ability to rapidly regenerate.

Guyote for example had to be bandaged up after he was Mega Smashed by G3, showing he needed medical attention and thus could not rapidly regenerate from injuries. Purg'stall had a hole blown through his chest when he presumably died but he was considered to be physically weak by the other Zoalords so that may have been unique to him but shows that none have Guyver like regeneration capabilities.

The body crystals were originally thought to be zoacrystals but we have learned that only the head crystal are zoacrystals.

The body crystals thus are part of the abilities of the specific Zoalord, for example for Guyote and Imakarum they are gravity points that provide the gravity energy for their abilities.

The Creators ability to create zoaforms is greater than Chronos, who only backwards engineered zoaforming tech from creator technology. So as smart as Barcus is all his technology is second hand.

That said however it is possible that there could have been test designs before Alkanphel but the Creators have been messing with DNA since life began on Earth so it would have taken them very few tries to get it right.

The only thing they did not predict was the Guyver effect, which only turned up when you combined their Units with one of their creations on Earth.

[McAvoy]

It is also possible that zoacrystals made by Balcus is flawed in the way they're grown. Since Balcus had to use a zoacryatal shard to grow into a full one. Since Purg'Stall's zoacrystal is pyramid shaped which does not look like any of the crystals on Alkanphel.

A short note from Z's Data File for all the gang to see:

-Other Abilities: The Subject does possess one power that has not been observed by any other zoaform being and that is the power to heal by using a combination of the power of her mind and the transfer of some of her bio-energy. Subject has shown that she can even use this ability on herself, to a limited degree, to help with her own regeneration if the damage is localized. This ability also allows her to transfer life energy from one being to another as well as to herself, but nowhere near as fast as life draining beings like the Vampire Warrior Guyver have shown to be possible.

As stated above, she can use her ability even on herself, if the damage is localized. Probably to even heal / re-energize her additional Zoacrystals? Distinct possiblity. Also, we know that Dreadnought can heal Zoalords and restore their energies as well, and Zeus still wants to see about getting Grisela up & moving about again. Ah, what fun is yet to come . . . .
