HM-001 CombaDoll

The HM-001 CombaDoll was the first mobile suit piloted by Melissa Newman, the main protagonist of Mobile Suit GYNOID. An old mobile weapon, the CombaDoll served as Melissa's only means of defense against Clarissa Smithson, her abusive ex-partner and the pilot of the Heiress, until it is severely damaged at the latter's hands, after which she switched over to the MSA-01 Lohengrin.

History

The CombaDoll was created after the end of World War II. The suit was never put to use for unknown reasons, though it can be speculated that it was designed for civilian use. Years later, the mobile suit would be discovered by a young girl named Melissa Newman, who became its pilot in order to escape from Clarissa Hollington, a cruel, sadistic girl who had constantly tormented her.

Technology and Combat Characteristics

The Colony Lunar Type is equipped with the Lunar Wing system, which is not to be confused with the Moonlight Butterfly installed in the SYSTEM ∀-99 ∀ Gundam, which goes by the same name, despite having similar effects. The Lunar Wing system, when activated, functions as type of electric sail, by generating an modified I-field combined with focused plasma in the form of large beams resembling large wings, which can propel the suit at high speeds. The "wings" can also absorb the reflected light emitted from the Moon, hence its name, allowing for greater acceleration.

The CombaDoll's main armaments are its "mega particle caster", miniature directed energy weapons systems, mounted onto the suit's manipulators. They are fairly powerful, and capable of damaging a mobile suit in a few strikes. However, the CombaDoll is nowhere near as powerful as the other suits of its kind, such as the Lohengrin and the Gyanko.
