–Bagworm's description, in Chapter 30.[1] |
Bagworm (バッグワーム, Bagguwāmu ?) is a Optional Trigger used for stealth, that allows the user to become invisible to Radar, consuming trion during use.
Appearance[edit | edit source]
Bagworms appears as a brown cloak which fits all sizes. On the left side of the collar is a badge with a crossed out antenna, representing its function.[2] The members of Azuma Squad had its color temporarily changed to white to be able to camouflage in a snowy environment.[3]
Overview[edit | edit source]
The origins of this Trigger are unknown.
Abilities[edit | edit source]
Bagworm hides the user's trion signature, making them invisible to Radar and similar Triggers. However, Radars from Galopoula are seemingly able to bypass its effect.[4] It consumes trion for as long as it is active.[1] It is a particularly fundamental piece of equipment for Snipers,[5] since their effectiveness is severely limited if the target knows their location.[6] On the other hand, Bagworm may constitute an obstruction for Attackers, so they use it almost exclusively for ambushes.[7] Many fighters are also hesitant about resorting to Bagworm when there are hiding Snipers because it prevents the instantaneous activation of Full Guard.[8] However, creative fighters can use Bagworm to their advantage, employing it to hide wounds[9] or their next attack.[10] Additionally, since Bagworm remains conjured even if it is taken off, it can serve as a decoy.[11]
Users[edit | edit source]
Bagworm counts at least 89 current users among Border agents, hence it is the second most popular Trigger after Shield.[12] In fact, the 4 known agents who do not have Bagworm as part of their Trigger set all use Bagworm Tag, which may imply that Bagworm, possibly like Shield, is a compulsory Trigger.[12]
