MSMF-001 M-Frame

"You've done nothing but hurt me, Nadine.....that's all you're ever good for....SO WHO CARES IF YOU DIE?! You never helped me, and YOU NEVER CARED FOR ME! -Melissa's lashing out at Nadine during near the end of the first half.

The NW-001 M-Frame was the mobile suit piloted by Melissa Destiny, during the first half of MS DAWN: Broken Reality. A Newtype-use MS developed by the United States Armed Forces, the M-Frame was abandoned for unknown reasons, and discovered and is now piloted by Melissa(an Oldtype), serving as her primary means of defense against Nadine Smith.

Technology and Combat Characteristics

When piloted by an Oldtype, The M-Frame has rather limited combat capabilities, as its only armaments are its particle casters, due to the suit's experimental nature. Only when operated by a Newtype will the M-Frame's full power be displayed. Its armor, composed of Frame Metal, while durable, can be damaged or even destroyed with sufficient force, rendering the suit especially susceptible to kinetic weaponry.

When Nadine activated the Matrioshka Unit, the M-Frame's reaction to Emily Nguyen, an unstable Newtype, combined with Melissa's emotional breakdown, led to the activation of the suit's EXNT(External Newtype) Burst System, leaving Melissa critically injured and resulting in Emily(having become an infocell) merging with the suit itself. As such, the M-Frame is now capable of channeling Emily's powers.
