History

Bio-Booster Armor

Gaster would be one of the members of the Hyperzoanoid Team 5 elite who followed Commander Richard Guyot to Japan in order to deal with the Guyver that had bonded to Sho Fukomachi. After the failure of Zerbebeuth to capture the Unit, Gaster and his comrades were dispatched to the Guyver I's school in order to flush him out so he could be overwhelmed by these powerful Hyperzoanoids. The school was attacked mercilessly with dozens killed while the Chronos Corporation ensured no one escaped.

At this point, the Guyver I revealed itself and attacked Elegan along with Derzerb but found itself incapable of fighting the two. After being thrown through a wall, the Guyver I was struck in the arm by one of Gaster's liquid missiles. The Hyperzoanoid would fire several which wounded the Guyver and stated that he would not let him suffer by ending the battle after which he fired a volley to destroy Guyver I.

The missiles were destroyed by Thancrus who stated that the attack would have destroyed the Guyver's control medal which was required intact. After a battle with Thancrus, the Hyperzoanoid was killed by the megasmasher from Guyver III. Outraged at his comrades death, Gaster launched another volley at the new Guyver which were destroyed by a sonic attack. Guyver I would rise and engage Gaster in combat, however, the Hyperzoanoid managed to keep him at a distance with his chemical launchers. The battle would end badly for Gaster as the Guyver I learnt to harness its gravity control powers to fly in the air and slice Gaster's shoulder launchers with his high frequency blade. Gaster panicked as the chemicals reacted with one another and killed the Hyperzoanoid which ended the threat from him.

Background

Gaster appeared as a medium sized white skinned male with long black hair. Like his comrades in the Hyperzoanoid Team 5, he wore a unique Chronos combat suit when in his Human form. He was quite capable of shedding this form to transform into his Zoanoid form at a moments notice. His Hyperzoanoid form was that of a purple skinned creature with large bat-like ears and a similar rodent style face.

One of the distinctive features of this Hyperzoanoid were the large spherical shoulders which contain numerous missile shaped pods. These actually contained explosive chemicals that could be launched from the body upon Gaster's command making him a mobile missile battery. The projectiles were controlled telepathically allowing Gaster to control the direction of the missiles allowing him to hit a target with precision.

In addition to this, the Gaster type possessed launchers on the top of the hands which were similar to the shoulder mounted liquid chemical dispensers on the Panadyne strain. These chemicals were harmless separately but when combined, they were capable of creating a powerful explosive reaction.
