Basser

**Basser** appeared in 2016 TV series called *Ultraman Orb*. Basser (バッサー *Bassā*) is a species of bird-like Kaiju that debuted in *Ultraman Orb* as **Maga-Basser** ( *Maga Bassā*).

Although the original variant is yet to appear, fan interviews with director Kiyotaka Taguchi confirms its existence and depict it as "Maga-Basser without its Maga-Crystal".

Maga-Basser was one of the Lord Monsters created by Maga-Orochi, representing the element of Wind. In ancient times, Maga-Basser was sealed within the ionosphere above the North Arctic by Ultraman Mebius, until Juggler freed it via Peguila's Kaiju Card in the modern day.

One peaceful day in Kitchitachi, Tokyo, an ancient bird-like monster who slept in the ionosphere suddenly woke up and wreaked havoc on the city with its powers of aerokinesis to create a Maga-Storm. According to the SSP, it occurred every few days and vanished just as suddenly. The team went into the open to investigate the strange phenomenon when suddenly, the monster got riled up and created the storm again. They decided to go inside the storm to get some answers and, when they were lifted by one of the tornadoes, what they found was the "Lord Monster of Wind", Maga-Basser and a giant of light who quickly dispatched the monster for the moment.

Not only did the monster cause a lot of trouble in all of Tokyo with its storms, but, in accordance to the butterfly effect, it also created seven typhoons that popped up all over the Pacific. Maga-Basser eventually created his storm again and, when the storm cleared, he decided to reveal himself to all of Tokyo. The giant of light, who introduced himself as Ultraman Orb, also revealed himself in his Spacium Zeperion form and the two giants fought each other again.

They kept their fight evenly matched with their combat prowess and aerial advantages respectively. After Maga-Basser unleashed his Maga-Shockwave at him, Orb summoned his Sparion Light Ring at him and tried to redirect it when the monster flew away, but the attack only managed to get rid of several feathers. After brawling it out in the sky, Orb's Color Timer began to blink and seeing that his Fusion Up was starting to break up, Orb knew he had to wrap it up fast, so he unleashed his Sparion Beam at Maga-Basser and the monster exploded soon afterwards, ending his threat on Earth.

Afterwards, Orb's human form, Gai Kurenai, discovered the beast's Maga-Crystal and thanks to his Orb Ring, turned it into the Ultraman Mebius' Ultra Fusion Card, the Ultra who sealed away the monster in the first place. Meanwhile, the rest of the monster turned into a Kaiju Card recovered by the true perpetrator, Jugglus Juggler.

Summoned by Makoto to search for the Wind Crystal, **Gue-Basser** (グエバッサー *Gue Bassā*) rampaged while the Minato siblings were trying to support Yuuha in her attempt to fly. The giant bird initially had the advantage of the battle against the Ultramen until the Tiga Crystal was uncovered. Using it, Blu transformed into Wind form and countered Gue-Basser's wind manipulation abilities before both Ultras destroy it with Zero Twin Slicer and Storm Shooting. Its crystal was recovered by D.R.L.N. as Makoto returned it to the R/B Crystal Collection Case.

## Powers and Abilities

### Normal

* **Flight**: As giant bird itself, Basser is theorized to be able to fly with its wings.

### Maga

	+ **Maga-Storm** (マガ嵐 *Maga Arashi*): Referred to by Gai as "The Devil's Wind", by flying in a circle, Maga-Basser can create an enormous black cloud that releases several tornadoes with enough magnitude to rip off and pull up parts of buildings. One of these tornadoes is big enough for Maga-Basser himself to fit into. The use of this storm has a domino effect to weather patterns around the globe, causing world wide storms and erratic weather patterns such as snowstorms in Egypt.
