The ESU-S4x-016 Majestic is a Garrisai from the *Harbinger - Dead Legacy* Novel . It is piloted by Cecelia Palmer.

## Technology and Combat Characteristics

After the Majestic (Early Type) had completed testing for establishing the design of the Project Resurga Frame, it was equipped with its final upgrade--the Super Unicorn Initiative. Using an experimental version of the High-Mobility II Thruster System from its earlier tests, it was not as compact and refined as the types seen today. Instead, it consisted of high-output thrusters on the main legs, as well as a pair of extended thrusters that are the "rear legs" which keep the Garrisai balanced when moving. This allows for forward and turning movement without the worry of the suit falling over. Since the Majestic was designed to need high-mobility in order to run its lance attacks, it would be the first test Garrisai for the system. (When the stabilizing thrusters are not being used, their sub arms pull in, storing them as a backpack thruster. The sub arms can move the thrusters to allow for re-balancing or turning motions, as well as stopping.)

## Armaments

- T-16 Destroyer Lance: The primary weapon of the Majestic. It is a massive triangular lance that is excellent at armor piercing. Due to its size, it is cumbersome to use in close-quarters combat, and thus is best used in hit-and-run attacks. If necessary, it can be thrown or used as a club. The handle of the weapon can also detach from the head of the lance, revealing a short-sword. This emergency weapon is best used when the thrusters or high speed capabilities of the Majestic are compromised. (According to the model number, both the weapon and the unit may have been developed in tandem as for countering CSs)

- 40mm ASU: When needed, the Majestic can use a 40mm Assault Rifle similar to most Castel Ground Types. However, its hit-and-run tactics make this a viable option only when high-speed combat is not available.

- Nanolaminate Riot Shield: This half-body shield is best used for blocking incoming gunfire when running a lance attack. It features a sliding visor that the pilot can see through to protect the head of the Majestic. When not in use, this shield can be attached to the forearm of the Garrisai, or purged when necessary.

- Armored Crest: A head-mounted anti-armor weapon that resembles a unicorn horn. It is only effective in extreme-close range, as it is best used in a headbutt.

## Special Equipment and Features

- Assistive Targeting System: The standard targeting system used by most Garrisai units. Since the Majestic uses primarily melee weapons, this system is seldom used. However, when the need arises, the ATS is always available.

- Balancing Thrusters: The main event of the Majestic, which consists of a pair of back-mounted thrusters. When activated, the thrusters slide down on a rail-like arm, suspending them behind the main legs. This allows for high speed movement, though sharp and maneuverable motion would not be available until the final version of this system in the form of the Diamondback.

- Gyrotumbler Unit: A kinetically driven Sub-Engine that cycles Dechalus energy fast enough to power the HMT Thruster Kit. It is a single-cylinder version of the Fusion Drives used by all Garrisai, located in the chest area.

- External Fuel Canisters: A handful of fuel canisters filled with Dechalus can be mounted on the Majestic's back. This allows for extensive use of the HMT II Thruster Kit, primarily for long-distance travel if a Landship is not available. When emptied, all canisters can be purged to lighten the load.

## History

Majestic was one of the first S4 Garrisai to be developed, and had a number of test runs with its high mobility kit during the time of Decholon’s independence. When the Mercury Legion invaded, the Majestic defended many important bases but was damaged during one of its operations. Thus, it was taken to the Polaris Citadel to undergo repairs. As the tide of the battle began to turn in the Legion's favor, the Majestic was quickly ordered by General Omega to be transferred from Polaris Base to Neptune Base in Southern Aquarius, as to not let it be captured. Years later, the Majestic was uncovered by the LCR, and resumed repairs as they were never finished, especially to the HMT II Kit. When a new Garrisai was uncovered near Andromeda, the Majestic was one of the few Garrisai now fully repaired under the LCR’s belt. It was then sent out to support the Andromenian Remnants during a plea for help. Cecelia Palmer, one of the pilots that underwent training under the LCR, was the first to operate the Garrisai in over a decade.

## Trivia

- The Majestic's Lance-based/Balancing Thruster design was heavily inspired from the Gundam Kimaris Trooper.

- The Majestic’s name may be alternatively pronounced as “Mah-zhe-siis,” Similar to the pronunciation of “Majesty.”

- The Kanji symbols pasted near the Majestic’s name “Hashire Kousoku no,” or “Run, fast-as-light,” which is a verse from the Sakura Taisen OP. The Majestic’s hovering ability and knight-like design are tied closely with the concepts of the series.

- The Majestic is considered by Kingship, the creator of The Harbinger Project, as his favorite Garrisai.
