Aegiochusmon is a Shaman Digimon. It synthesized the abilities of various species, with a human body as the base. The synthesis of species is said to be the result of having sought the extreme called omnipotence, and adapts it to its surroundings, dramatically altering its appearance. This form is composed of data taken from the Dragon-tribe, so the data of the Dragon-tribe sleeping within its body manifests on the surface of its body, centered upon the crystal in its chest, and establishes itself as armor. This armor is a Powered Suit that affects not only Aegiochusmon's defensive power but also its physical strength, drastically increasing its offensive power.[3]
Attacks
- Bolt Break Knockdown: Commences a rush attack with fists shrouded in the thunder produced from its horn.
- Lightning Pile: Shapes thunder into a pile, then impales the opponent from just overhead to drive them into the ground. It is said that if the pile pierces the opponent once, the piles cast afterward will always hit, regardless from where they're cast.
- Charging Strike: Pierces the opponent's head with its horn using a high speed charge that capitalizes on its prided leg strength.
Design[]
Aegiochusmon is a humanoid creature colored red due to its association with the Dragon-species in Digimon Heroes!. It has goat horns and cloven feet similar to the goat, as befitting of Jupiter's association with goats.
