Bubblegum Crisis · Protagonist

Singer. Priss and the Replicants play bars in MegaTokyo and she writes songs about a city that eats people. Off the stage she rides hard, fights harder, and treats most human interaction as an obstacle to get through. The most aggressive of the Knight Sabers and the most obviously damaged. She has personal reasons for what she does in that hardsuit that go beyond Sylia's money and the city's boomer problem. The music and the violence come from the same place in her. One of the great protagonists of 1980s anime and the character Bubblegum Crisis was built to showcase.

The Moto-Slave

Transforming Support Machine · Hardsuit Reinforcement Open →
The Moto-Slave is a transforming support machine designed to work with a Knight Saber hardsuit. In vehicle form it gets a Saber into the fight quickly; in combat form it becomes a larger armored partner or reinforcement around the hardsuit, giving the team firepower and protection beyond the suit alone.
Why it matters
The Moto-Slave is the bridge between Bubblegum Crisis as powered-armor cyberpunk and Bubblegum Crisis as full-bore 1980s mecha anime. It lets a human-scale fight suddenly become a machine fight without replacing the woman inside the armor. It is not the same machine as the Highway Star used for the Griffon chase.

Priss's Hardsuit: The Team's Heavy Hitter

Blue Hardsuit · Close Assault · Moto-Slave Compatibility Open →
Priss wears the team's most aggressively used combat suit. Its armament favors direct attack, and her fighting style pushes the suit into exactly the kind of close-range punishment Sylia would rather approach with a plan.
Why it matters
Priss is not simply "the strong one." Her suit is the point where the Knight Sabers' technology meets her willingness to commit completely once she decides somebody has to be stopped. The Moto-Slave extends that same philosophy into heavier combat.
