Technology & Combat Characteristics

The ORX-005CS is a customized higher-spec version of the experimental ORX-005 Gaplant. The head unit was equipped with enhanced communication sensors which were feather-like in arrangement, and the entire machine had been painted purple along with ornate markings. The Gaplant Custom Elisia Special featured improved movable shield binders with increased firepower in the form of a right arm binder with built-in twin beam cannons and thrusters, and a left arm binder fitted with a large shield that incorporated vernier thrusters for defensive purposes. An interesting design feature of the ORX-005CS was the machine cannon and gatling gun built into the waist section, which would become a bow-mounted weapon in its mobile armor mode.

History

A Gaplant was claimed by the Titans Test Team, and became the personal MS of ace pilot Erisia Nocton. Like the original unit, the Custom Erisia Special version was a high-performance mobile suit capable of both space and atmospheric combat, and several modifications have been made to the overall frame of the machine. The sensors, thrusters, and weapons was upgraded. Despite these modifications, the ORX-005CS's overall specifications were relatively comparable to that of a standard Gaplant.
