History
Zoanoids were created primordial times on Earth when the Creators came to the world in order to engineer a specific lifeform; a bio-weapon. Their experimentation created Humanity which would simply be the basis for other more complex bio-weapons one of which would be the Zoanoids. These creatures were mentally slaved to the telepathic abiliies of the Zoalords and the Creators themselves. The Creators would abandon the Zoanoids on Earth after Guyver 0 went out of control.
Overview
In appearance, Zoanoids came in a variety of forms based on the model. They were genetically-altered human beings who can assume the form of powerful, horrific monsters (what their monstrous forms look like is apparently dependent upon the individual). Over the course of the new anime, its revealed that the Zoanoids are not monsters that have taken on Human form but are rather the true expression of Humanity's evolution.
Creation of Zoanoids typically worked through a process known as Optimization. After completed, the Zoanoid gained the ability to change into a secondary form which is far more monstrous in appearance. This second form can vary depending on which type of Zoanoid the person has been configured into. Numerous noted abilities include an increased strength and other biological adaptations from bio-lasers, to hardened armor to even acidic acid for blood.
Basic Zoanoids are far stronger when compared to a Human but are incapable of fighting a Guyver and are easily slain in combat. More advanced variants of Zoanoids are known as Hyper Zoanoids which are far stronger then a basic Zoanoid. Noted mutations though that deviate from mass produced Zoanoids are the Lost Numbers who are seen as scientific curiosities to study but nothing more. Another type were the Hyperzoanoids that was the next stage of development of superior Zoanoid bio-weapons. These creatures were far superior to standard Zoanoids with abilities that allow them to rival that of a Guyver Unit. They also possessed further abilities to enhance their performance.
The highest level of Zoanoids were a group known as the Zoalords. Even the most powerful of Zoanoids were helpless before the power ofa Zoalord. Zoanoids were subject to the will of a Zoalord who can easily mentally command them into committing actions they would normally do to self destructing. Members of the public can be altered into this state without their knowledge creating an army of unquestionably loyal followers to do a Zoalords bidding.
