## Chojin Zest

* Front
* Wings Extended

The **CZ-001 Chojin Zest** (超神ゼスト) is a Banpresto Original mobile weapon in *Super Robot Wars OG: Ignition*.

## Technology & Combat Characteristics

Choujin Zest is the transformed state of Indigo Protector, the henshin dramatically increasing its size. It carries no armaments to speak of beyond its fists and feet, yet it is capable of projecting energy beams from its limbs. When speed and mobility is needed, it can extend a large pair of wings for flight, enabling speeds up to Mach 4.

Empowering the unit is the Sphere of the Standing Archer, which is fueled by one's determination to keep rising again even after getting beaten down. Conversely, if the wielder were to give up without a fight, the power would be broken.

## History

Twenty years ago, OE 092, on the outskirts of the Russian wilds, a Mysterious kaiju appeared, threatening several children who had been playing in the woods. Before it could kill them, the children were saved by what they claimed to be a giant figure, more human than any PT, grappling with the beast while they fled. When authorities arrived on the scene, clear signs of a battle had taken place littered the clearing where once stood a forest. For the next couple decades, rumors of skirmishes across the lunar colonies popped up occasionally, perpetuated by witnesses with partial stories, all seeming to have one figure in common: A giant figure that was called “Chojin Zest.”

OE 96. A single android was found by the young Lunarian merchant and self-proclaimed amateur detective, Millicent “Milli” Tremaine, stuck to the outer wall of the Side 4 colony. Recovering the android from there, Milli found herself briefly held hostage by the android upon reactivation. The android had no memories of how it had gotten there, why, or even when, but what they did remember their name and a mission.

Indigo, and to defend life.

While the curious Milli searched for parts to help repair the damaged android, the two had a dream, seemingly connected to something withing the device on Indigo’s chest. A dream of the spheres, and their power…

The two currently act as a business partners, purchasing supplies from Earth, with Milli being the brain and Indigo the muscle. They are still haunted by the dream occasionally, while Indigo harbours a secret from Milli that even she doesn’t completely understand…
