2 x Scramble Grenades

Bio: After confirmation of Suzaku Kururugi's continued status as the Lancelot's pilot, Lloyd 'decided' to 'tune' the Lancelot. Most of the changes made were minor, with the same nano-adhesive on the Bors' smash harkens applied to the Lancelot's landspinners, and joints coated with friction-reducing compounds.

The Lancelot's forelimbs have been reinforced and enhanced, allowing Suzaku to use his trademark martial arts combat moves with little fear of completely destroying one of the Lancelot's limbs. The knuckles have had other modifications, having been reconstructed out of solid sakuradite/silver/silicon alloys that allow an electric charge from implanted sakuradite capacitors to shock anything that they hit at high velocities. The charge is powerful enough to overload a Glasgow's electronics, literally shorting out the factsphere and, in extreme cases, igniting the Yggdrasil Drive's liquid Sakuradite.

Like the rest of it, the Lancelot's armaments remain largely unchanged, excepting the addition of an array of optional weapons to increase the Lancelot's versatility. The Maser Vibration Spear measures at three meters of shaft and one meter of forked blade. Like the MVS, the MV Spear uses masers to heat the blade and oscillators to vibrate it to enhance cutting power. Unlike the MVS, the Spear double as a low-tech rifle. The spear's entire shaft also serves as a barrel, with multiple caseless rounds stacked inside. When fired, the Lancelot emits a relatively low voltage charge through its palms and into the spear shaft, where the charge follows wiring to the barrel, which ignites the propellant charge coating the first three rounds, firing them at high velocities. The entire system reduces recoil, allowing the Lancelot to quickly recover from firing. The rounds are 90mm copper rounds with a concave tip, which increases spread and damage.
In order to improve the Lancelot's intended 'surprise' effect, new Scramble Grenades developed by A.S.E.E.C have been stored inside the Lancelot's knee armor. Utilizing both standard flash grenade and EMP effects, the Scramble Grenades temporarily stun Knightmare Frames while also blinding conventional forces.

Optional weapons capable of being mounted on the new cockpit mounts have also been made. The first of these is a 5-barreled 25mm rotary cannons linked to optical tracking sensors in the cockpit that direct the guns to shoot at whatever the pilot is looking at on the cockpit screens each unit carries a total of 525 rounds, alternating between Depleted Uranium Armor Piercing Incendiary rounds and High Explosive Incendiary rounds, allowing the Lancelot to literally deliver a blistering amount of firepower.
The second is a pair of 55mm auto cannons designed, each with three belt fed magazines containing 25 rounds each of three different types of ammo. The first type is a standard HEAP round, the second and third however are 'smart' munitions with precision fuses that allow them to airburst over targets that are not within line of sight, one being a white phosphorous incendiary round and the other being a powerful frag round packed with 15mm stainless steel balls.
The final weapon is a pair of 16-shot TOW missile launchers that are very accurately guided by the Lancelot's Factspheres' input to hit virtually any target it can see with near 100 percent accuracy while both it and it's target are in motion.

In order to use these optional weapons, however, the Lancelot must sacrifice the MV Spear's sheath, forcing it to either carry the weapon in its hands or leave it behind.

The Lancelot remains mostly unchanged in appearance.

RCI-02B

Arawn

Unit Type: Limited Production Close Combat Knightmare Frame

Manufacturer: Imperial Armories

Operator: Britannian Army (Mabinogion)

Height: 4.62 Meters

Weight: 7983 Kilograms

Armor: Titanium Boride/Steel plating

Power Source: 1 x Yggdrasil Drive

Propulsion: 2 x Landspinners

Equipment and Design Features: 2 x Factspheres
Low-Friction Joints
High-Strength Musculature
Dual-Layer hollow Titanium Carbide shield w/ kinetic gel filling (optional)

Fixed Armaments: 2 x Shoulder-Based monomolecular slash harkens

Hand Armaments: Monomolecular Longswords
Monomolecular Axe
Monomolecular Scythe
High-Density Hyperdiamond-tipped Titanium Nitride Lance
Knightmare Shotgun

Bio: Second of the three Maginogi Frames, the Arawn is awarded to pilots who have distinguished themselves in melee combat. It's overall appearance is similar to the Sutherland it was developed from, albeit bulkier, more curved armor plates, and with a Lancelot-esque head based on the design of the Lancelot Club, minus the horn. Generally, the Arawns are colored a red-on-white scheme vaguely similar to the Lancelot's.

Its principle features are joints coated in a low-friction substance allowing the Arawn a reaction speed that was unprecedented before the development of the Lancelot, allowing a pilot properly versed in Knightmare melee combat to more quickly and easily avoid attacks from both long-range and melee weaponry, while also enhancing the power of the Arawn's own attacks with greater momentum. Adding to this is the enhanced Sakuradite-laced musculature, a sort of pre-production version of the Lancelot's own Sakuradite-empowered frame.

As a close combat frame, the Arawn's weaponry is mainly an assortment of monomolecular-edged weaponry developed by a third party, the Richardson Corporation. The most common weapon is a monomolecular Boron Nitride-edged steel longsword, followed by an axe made of the same materials. Also available is a somewhat more advanced version of the lances used by both Sutherlands and Gloucesters One Arawn pilot in Area 11, a Major James Picton, uses a custom-made scythe. Some of the Arawn pilots utilize a shotgun, although they're mostly in areas with open spaces.

Some Arawn pilots utilize the anti-armor-piercing shield developed by A.S.E.E.C in combat, covering behind them in order to make up for the Arawn's somewhat reduced land-speed. The shield is also rated against both Knightmare Lances and Sutherland Tonfa's, as well as the improvised Knightmare knives used by some Anti-Britannian Forces.

The Arawn's slash harkens are rather standard, except that they end in a mono-atomic sharp point and have monomolecular edges made of Titanium Nitride composites. A common tactic of many Arawn pilots is to pierce enemy Knightmares in their main body, before deploying grappling hooks and utilizing the Arawn's greater strength to 'reel' the enemy in.

Jeremiah Gottwald, despite not participating in the initial invasion of Japan, has possession of an Arawn, obtained from a former Mabinogion commander who bet both Knightmare Frame, title, and his position as a Mabinogion member in a duel against Jeremiah. The Margrave beat him using a Sutherland and its lance, much to the officer's embarrassment (and demise).

- The Author -

O.K., So I gotta apologize.
Instead of dutifully working on the next Stage, I goofed off for the entire week.
In my defense, C.C. and Lelouch interaction is kind of hard for me to write for, and trying to think of how Learme's gonna react to the witch is difficult in some respects.

Replies:

Jaksio: Alright, and thanks.

Alex Yamato: Ok. And that reminds me, to all the rest of you who contributed OCs, if you could think of a nickname or something that would fit them that I could fit into the specific scene-changes that switch over to them, I'd appreciate it.

Haavu: She'll go far in the Black Knights.

omegadragon2: Thank you. Erm....about your OC...I'm sorry, but the last Zero Squadron slot was already full. Maybe Ian could fit into the Mao arc somehow?

00virtuezero: I dunno, he went pretty berserk in canon. And axes have, literary speaking, been associated with berserkers. OK.

Kojiro Kun: I'll work it out.

Rickrolled: Not really sure myself. Kinda winging it.

SharinganUserX: I'd love to claim credit for Mischa and Tony, but their brand of craziness seems to be Velshard-exclusive.
