The Parasite Suit is an advanced technological suit built by Anthony Ivo and his assistant Alex Luthor.
Description[]
The Parasite Suit in its base form is characterized by a predominantly black lace exterior, accented with deep royal purple plaiting and a light lavender inner lining. A diamond-shaped emblem is present on the forehead at both the front and back of the headpiece. The facial area includes a violet mouthpiece and stylized, dandelion-shaped eyes outlined in black. The suit is also equipped with sharp claws.
As the Parasite Suit evolves into its secondary form, its core design remains largely unchanged but undergoes several enhancements. Spikes begin to protrude from the body; the purple plaiting darkens, the teeth sharpen and emit a faint lavender glow, while the eyes change to a bright, intense yellow. Additionally, the suit gains a prehensile tail once it has absorbed enough energy from its target.
Capabilities[]
- Energy Absorption: The suit can absorb kinetic energy from oncoming attacks and convert it into power that evolves its form to better repel and destroy any enemy it faces. This causes the suit to grow new body parts, such as a tail and even enlarge in size to become a Kaiju-like creature. The suit can also absorb non-kinetic energy sources, such as electrical energy. A major design flaw, though, is that it needs to keep a constant source of energy absorbed into it or the suit begins to starve itself and then feed upon its user, potentially crushing them to death as the suit powers down and compresses in on itself.
- Superhuman Physical Attributes: The Parasite suit was able to absorb striking blows given by Superman and convert them into augmented physical power to combat him.
- Power Replication: When absorbed attacks are given by an opponent, the suit can convert them into counteractive measures, such as when it absorbed Superman's heat vision and redirected it into an energy beam.
- Prehensile Tail: The Parasite suit is equipped with the capability of generating a bio-mechanical tail that reacts to the wearer's thought patterns.
- Size Alteration: When the suit absorbs a massive amount of energy, it can grow to the size of a Kaiju monster. The suit may also generate mass due to absorbing energy.
- Tendril Generation: When in its monstrous Kaiju form, the suit can manifest tendrils on its body to use offensively, and to absorb even more power.
Weaknesses[]
- Power Instability: When used to the maximum limit, the Parasite suit can turn its wearer into a deformed nightmare.
- Mental Deterioration: The suit can drain its wearer of their intellect and twist them into rabid lunatics.

Trivia[]
- The design of the Parasite Suit seems to take partial inspiration from The Guyver, a 1980s Japanese sci-fi franchise about bio-armor weapons that were created by aliens. Its purple color and face seems to also take inspiration from EVA Unit 01 from the Japanese franchise Neon Genesis Evangelion. Its giant form is seemingly inspired by Toho kaiju films, with a particular focus on Shin Godzilla, given its demise similarly involving freezing it into a statue standing in the middle of a city.
- Another possible inspiration for the armor, at least its 1.0 form's mask, is Emperor Zarkon from Voltron: Legendary Defender, another series animated by Studio Mir.
