Laguiole

"The Meganites, mechanical humans who will one day go where we cannot. No matter what we do, humanity will not survive to the next millennium. That is why these great machines were built. They will carry the memory of humanity beyond the stars!" - Dr. Hourai

"The Aerial Dominator Laguiole is the king of the skies. When it is in the air, no one can fly higher or faster! It is unbeatable!" - Dr. Herman Wiltz, boasting about how awesome Laguiole is

Laguiole, the aerial Meganite, is thin and lanky compared to its brethren. It doesn't have nearly as much armor, but its speed is far greater than anything the other two could hope to achieve, and it can transform into a plane-like "Fortress" mode with a sharp nose to turn that speed into a deadly weapon. It makes use of several energy weapons, but its melee capabilities are a little lacking.

History
Laguiole was the third Meganite created by the Foundation, though Dr. Hourai's only involvement in its construction was the installation of the Desecrator system. Ryo Tsukioka was originally going to be its pilot, but he lagged behind his older siblings during training. Now Laguiole is stuck in the Meganites' hangar, waiting for one of the Tsukiokas to fly it into battle.

Technology
Alchemic Drive - The Alchemic Drive is an engine that converts a rare mineral called georite into useable energy. It is known for being able to last for very long periods of time on only a small amount of the mineral, but not much else has been observed.

Transformation - Transformation is nothing new to the mecha world, especially for super robots, and as far as transformation sequences go, Laguiole's is exceptionally simple. It's mostly here for completion's sake.

Controller - Laguiolle's controller resembles a modified Dual Shock 2, a controller for an antique game system called the Playstation 2. It is completely wireless, and its effective range is enough to cover the entire city of Senjo. However, its effectiveness suffers considerably when there is any sort of jamming device in the area, forcing the pilot to stay within thirty meters of Laguiole's location, a "safe zone" that will allow them to keep control over Laguiole no matter how strong the jamming is.

Weapons Systems
Aerial Missile - A pair of missile launchers mounted under the two halves of the Fortress Mode's nose on Laguiole's waist.

Sky Torpedo - A missile launcher mounted on the underside of the Fortress Mode. Only usable in Fortress Mode.

Nova Laser - A laser fired from the emitter on Laguiole's chest.

Divine Laser - A more powerful laser fired from the emitter on Laguiole's chest.

Gigantic Boomerang - The blades on Laguiole's shoulders are actually, you guessed it, giant boomerangs.

Thunder Arm - Laguiole's right hand retracts into the forearm and is replaced by a mech-scale taser. Yes, a taser.

Thunder Cannon - Laguiole's left hand retracts into the forearm and is replaced by a gun that shoots lightning.

Aerial Corroder - The two halves of the Fortress Mode's nose rotate upward so the points are facing forward, electricity is charged between them, and then it fires a wave of concentrated lightning.

Desecrator - When the Desecrator Demon Sword system is activated, a pair of swords spring out of Laguiole's wrists. Energized with by the Alchemic Drive, these swords are able to cleave through any material.

Significant Errata
Although Dr. Hourai, the head of the Meganite design team, claims to have created the Meganites purely for the exploration of space and areas inhospitable to humans, just before his death he revealed that the real reason for their construction was to fight the Volgara, a race of alien machines bent on killing off mankind, whose arrival he had predicted several years ago.

Though Dr. Hourai came up with the plans for all of the Meganites, and is thus credited for their design, he had minimal involvement in the development of Gllang and Laguiolle beyond installing the Sanctifier and Desecrator weapon systems.
