Technology & Combat Characteristics
Development of the Psycho Flare began in the Jupiter Sphere in U.C. 0084, and it was transported to Earth aboard the Junoon, where it was handed over to the Clan in March U.C. 0088. According to Haifan, this transfer was carried out under Paptimus Scirocco’s orders, though the device arrived in the Earth Sphere only after his death.
At first glance, the Psycho Flare appears to be a mere asteroid. However, Shamal can remotely activate it, revealing an artificial structure along its equatorial line capable of firing a powerful beam—known as the Psycho Flare—either in all directions or focused in a single one. When the asteroid splits open, its internal systems deploy numerous unmanned combat craft as a defensive measure. Yet, its true power lies in its ability to induce an overwhelming sense of euphoria in those nearby, dulling their senses and rendering them compliant—like addicts.
