The Gundam Epyon ("next" in Greek), created by OZ leader Treiz Khushrenada based on his study of the five Gundams, reflects his personal philosophy as a knight and a soldier. Carrying no beam rifle or any other kind of ranged weapon, it's a mobile suit appropriate for a genuine knight. The Gundam Epyon's main weapon is a beam sword connected via a tube to the waist's energy supplier; since it draws directly on the mobile suit's energy, it boasts the highest output of any handheld weapon. The mobile suit can also transform into a "mobile armor" mode for long-distance, high-speed space travel. When the Gundam Epyon transforms, the rearrangement of its internal mechanisms reduces its energy consumption, and it can cruise for extended periods in this energy-efficient form.

Beam Sword

Epyon Claw

Heat Rod
Beam Sword: This energy blade boasts the highest output and power of any handheld mobile suit weapon. One blow from the Gundam Epyon's beam sword is sufficient to destroy a spacecraft. Epyon Claw: These serve as landing gear in mobile armor mode, and can also shred opponents' armor in combat.

Heat Rod: This segmented whip is made up of heat-radiating blades, and can slice through two or three normal mobile suits in a single strike, but only an excellent pilot can handle it.
