Digivices: Models and Abilities
Posted: Wed Mar 14, 2012 3:54 pmIn Dial Up, there were originally two kinds of Digivices. The basic D-Phone and the Crown D-Phone. As of now the Digivice types have increased and will continue to so I figured now would be a good time to go into them!
All Digivices unless noted share the same basic abilities as seen in the original DIAL UP! Guide and in any and all OS updates posted in the city. What this is is a list of the various models and the special abilities that set them apart.
FREELANCERS
D-Phone: The standard model based on the flip phone, it doesn't have any features beyond the others besides having a better engine and processor to handle Light of Evolution. Used by the Freelancers.
Manifestation: D-Phones are created by The DJ and unless just handed out tend to be transmuted from an available electronic device. Tamers of other factions that choose to return to being a Freelancer can use their LoE to "hatch" their D-Phone from their former model.
Special Ability: Blast Mode
Explanation: Increases a Digimon's power output dramatically, but also increases the amount of damage they take. Blast Mode can also be used to "Blast Digivolve" a Digimon to their next level, but only for three posts.
D-Phone V2 "Commander": The second model currently in the testing phase and rolled out in Season 3. They are still flip style phones but utilize touch screens. The upgrade was necessary to handle the LoE necessary to create true Perfect Digimon.
Manifestation: The V2 is created when a Tamer's will transforms their current model. New Tamers brought in after the roll out automatically have them.
Special Ability: Blast Mode
Explanation: Increases a Digimon's power output dramatically, but also increases the amount of damage they take. Blast Mode can also be used to "Blast Digivolve" a Digimon to their next level, but only for three posts.
CROWNS
Crown D-Phone: D-Phones modified to suit the Crown Faction, they are based on slide up model phones.
Manifestation: Crown D-Phones are created by plugging in an opposing faction D-Phone into a set device that takes apart and reassembles the current phone into the chosen model.
Special Ability: Hacking Signal
Explanation: Hacking Signal allows the Crown Tamer to screw with the Digital World's Evolutionary Code, allowing their Digimon to Digivolve into a form that is natural in their progression. Only titled Crown Tamers have this ability, however, and it can only get them to the Perfect level at most. Hacked Digimon are not as powerful as natural ones. Hacked Digimon also do not have a Final Charge.
Divine D-Phone: Crown D-Phones made for the Divine Crown class Tamers. There are only four in Mirai Archipelago, the Dragon, Pegasus, Lion, and Wolf Phones.
Manifestation: Divine D-Phones are only hand modified as part of a ceremony.
Special Ability: Hacking Signal Ω
Explanation: The Hacking Signal Ω can create Ultimate level Digimon. The same limitations apply as to the regular Hacking Signal.
Divine Ruler D-Phone: Different from the rest, the Divine Ruler Phone is only held by Divine Crown Empress. It is a full unrestricted Digivice.
Manifestation: This Digivice has no manifestation. It was granted to Fleur de Croix by The DJ.
Special Ability: Master Control
Explanation: Evolution Timer is fully unlocked and all forms are accessible.
DAEDALUS INITIATIVE
Oracle D-Phone: D-Phones modified to suit the Daedalus Initiative, they are based on touch screen smart phones. They can utilize all Initiative based technology including Pseudo-Digimentals.
Manifestation: Oracle D-Phones are constructed on a robotic assembly line; in the case of a Tamer who converts from another faction, the Initiative has a procedure for removing the core data of the old D-Phone and transferring it to an Oracle shell.
Special Ability: Genomon Controller
Explanation: Oracle D-Phones have full access to the Genomon Series and its various offshoots, and can summon a number of them to aid in the battlefield. Captains and Vice-Captains are capable of summoning more than regular units.
Oracle-II β: Modified Oracle Phones currently possessed only by the Captains of Daedalus' "Zodiac 13", they are slightly more metallic and differ slightly in shape from regular Oracle D-Phones. Only thirteen exist at the moment.
Manifestation: No different from the regular Oracle, though extra construction time is needed for the AEC.
Special Ability: Artificial Evolutionary Circuit
Explanation: In addition to retaining access to the Genomon, the Oracle-II β has this device integrated into its structure, which acts as a Circuit does and allows the Initiative's Captains access to the Perfect level of Evolution.
D-Mod/D-Transmod: Not necessarily Digivices like the others but still ones in their own right. These devices actually change the user INTO a Digimon through chemical and genetic tampering. Very much in the testing phase.
STABILITY
Grimoire D-Phone: D-Phones modified to suit the Stability Alliance, they are based on the book flip smart phone models. Their data storage capacity is astounding compared to the other models, and is capable of opening multiple holo-windows.
Manifestation: These phones can be manifested one of two ways, though the main "known" way is to be "knighted" by Kasumi A.K. McDougal.
Special Ability: Force DigiXros
Explanation: Grimoire Phones can subjugate and force the DigiXros of other combatants. The DigiXros lasts for two posts, at which then the Xros will end and the subjugated Digimon will be thrown back to the opposing field. There is a three post cool down period for this ability.
GEAR DAN
D-Watch: A Digivice crafted free of the phone models, it is arm mounted and suited for the Gear Dan Army.
Manifestation: There is currently only one in existence owned by the Gear Dan leader, Metal Gear. However, there is talk that he is constructing another. The D-Watch has the ability to link up with any other Digivice without loading time and has the greatest communication range of any model.
Special Ability: D-Link
Explanation: D-Link is similar to DigiXros, however D-Link can be fueled by LoE and uses primarily machine Digimon to their full potential.
OTHERS
Below are Digivices NOT based on The DJ's original model and OS, and thus are outside of his control in terms of abilities and distribution.
Royal D-Phone: Standard model D-Phones made for use by pawns of the Royal Knights. They have very basic capabilities and lack the upgrades of the other models. Their primary purpose is to subjugate the user and allow Royal Knight forces to come into the Analog World.
X-Cellular: An odd model D-Phone, design wise it looks like a regular button and screen one panel cellphone, except the screen is framed with an x-frame that splits to reveal a red optic when activated. It is the opposite in terms of Human-Digimon relationships. For one, it does not come with a Digimon. Rather, a single type called X-Techmon comes with every unit. The X-Cellular warps the desires of the user, making them a tool for the X-Techmon.
Manifestation: Unknown, but they are connected to Galvamon.
Special Ability: Human Tool and X-Link
Explanation: Human Tool transforms the human user into a weapon for X-Techmon. Destroying the weapon kills the user but has no effect on X-Techmon. X-Link works the same as D-Link, those uses a dark and poisonous LoE that absorbs anything and everything to fulfill the evolution requirements.
Dead Number: Another odd model in simular form to the X-Cellular, except the top shifts up like a Xros Loader. These are still a mysterious existence with horrible powers.
Manifestation: Unknown. However, humans at their time of absolute despair can attract one, signified by dark blue circuit lines appearing in the palms.
Special Ability: Dead Memory and Dark Digivolution
Explanation: Dead Memory creatives black manifestations of anyone in the target's past, presumably ones they have killed. When paired with any other Digivice, they create a highly powered Dark Digivolution.
