“

Along with the Ultima Warrior, Proto Ultima is one of several prototypes created by the Allagans in their long journey towards the completion of the Ultima Weapon. One of the most distinct differences between this model and the final is that at this point in their research, the Allagan scientists still had not discovered a means to protect a pilot from succumbing to the will of any primal absorbed by the machine, thus forcing them to employ a less-reliable artificial intelligence unit.

“

As the next evolution in the Ultima Project, the design of this weapon attempted to incorporate all the strengths of its predecessors. The lower body was a recreation of the Beast and its unrivaled vitality, while the upper emulated the Warrior and its power of eikon mimicry. It was installed with a Motherbit command function, enabling the manipulation of unmanned drones.
The construction of this weapon is said to have satisfied ninety percent of the objectives set forth by the Ultima Project. For the final model, however, the prototype was fitted with a cockpit for manual operation, the compartment shielded with aether-resistant armor to protect the pilot from enthrallment. It was further improved by the Heart of Sabik, a mysterious auracite power source furnished by the Ascians.
