–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
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
The origins of this Trigger are unknown.
Abilities
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
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]
