Enzyme (Guyver)

Enzyme are creatures that feature in Bio-Booster Armor Guyver.

History

Enzymes were a type Hyperzoanoid that were created by the Chronos Corporation following their encounter with the activated Guyver Unit's. One of the units came to be equipped to a young Japanese teenager named Sho Fukamachi with numerous efforts by the Japan Branch led by Genzo Makishima to recover it. All efforts of the Japan Branch failed as their standard Zoanoids proved ill-equipped to handle the bio-booster armor worn by the youth. As a result, this led to Commander Richard Guyot taking personal command of the efforts to recover the Guyver. Studies made on Guyver II equipped to Oswald A. Lisker along with encounters with Guyver I led to the development on an anti-Guyver Zoanoid. For his failures, Genzo Makishima was chosen to serve as the prototype of the Guyver Killer Zoanoid.

With the recent arrival of the Zoalord Doctor Hamilcar Balcus at Relic's Point, events began to shift against the Guyvers. After quickly learning about the existence of the Enzyme type hyperzoanoid, Dr Balcus attempted to use these Guyver-Killers against the bio-boosted Humans but lacked all the data due to the loss of the Japanese Branch's headquarters. Thus, he was forced to remake the creatures but with his own modifications.

The first Enzyme II was optimized on Sho Fukamachi's father in order to provide a psychological reason for Guyver I to not kill the Zoanoid as he would be killing his own father. Enzyme II succeeded in severely damaging Guyver I's brain in battle when the control medal took over the body of the host and destroyed Enzyme II.

A group of three Enzyme II's were dispatched in their Human forms against the Guyvers. Approaching the group, they morphed and attacked their jeep caravan. However, whilst expecting the two Guyvers, only Agito Makishima morphed into his bio-boosted form as Sho Fukomachi's sub-conscious had repressed the memory of him killing his father as the first of the Enzyme II's. This prevented from bio-boosting leaving Makishima to attack the Hyperzoanoids. They almost defeated the lone Guyver except for the intervention of Mr Murakami who revealed his identity as a proto Zoalord test body who destroyed the Enzyme II's in a short amount of time.

Three Enzymes II's were rushed from their Optimization tanks by Richard Guyot as part of his assault against Guyver I, III, Mister Murakami and their friends. Catching up with them, the three Enzyme II's morphed into their combat form where they battled against Guyver III and the proto Zoalord Mr Murakami. The Enzyme II's proved to be an effective weapon and nearly killed Guyver III but began dying as a result of their rushed Optimization and began to melt mid battle.

Overview

In appearance, the Enzymes were humanoid type Zoanoids that had features similar to a furred mammal yet had insectoid traits such as their eyes. Their forms tended to vary depending on which model batch they were created from as each had different physical characteristics.

During the course of their development, various models of Enzymes were created which included:

• Enzyme I : the original
• Enzyme II : an improved version that was created by Chronos's top scientist Hamilcar Balcus after accessing the Japan Branch records. The second Enzyme zoanoids were notably different from the first forms. They shared a similar body with furry white fur on their forms with batches of black chitin. Their faces had a more insectoid looking shape with four red eyes and a mouth full of mandibles. This form lost their tails but made up for this deficiency with four spear-like limbs stretching from the back. It was capable of using these insect-tile limbs to spear its enemies that approached the zoanoid. Similar to the Enzyme I's, the second Enzyme possessed an acidic form of blood which was capable of dissolving even bio-boosted armor. This meant that any melee attack against the Hyperzoanoid had the capacity of dealing damage on the one inflicting it.
• Enzyme III : a further improved model once more developed by Dr. Balcus with the express purpose of hunting the Guyvers and the rogue Aptom.

• E-001 : actually Fumio Fukamachi who had been kidnapped by Chronos and transformed without his knowledge into an Enzyme II prototype with this being done so based on the fact that he was Guyver I's father. Chronos had hoped to use the man's familial connection as a means of killing Sho Fukomachi.
