Autovajin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Autovajin is a fictional transforming, artificially intelligent support mecha for Kamen Rider Faiz seen in the 2003- 2004 Japanese television series Kamen Rider 555. It is the first of the support mecha seen in the series, that transforms from a Smart Brain motorcycle (Vehicle Mode), into a flight capable robot (Battle Mode).
The Autovajin has a limited A.I., but it is programmed to protect Mari Sonada and do as Faiz commands (in that order). If the person wearing the Faiz Gear attacks Mari, the Autovajin will attack Faiz. Initially it is fairly incompetent in its duties, accidentally shooting Faiz on a few occasions, but it became a valuable asset later in the series, often putting itself in harms way to protect various characters, and coming to the rescue when Faiz is in great danger.
[edit] Vehicle Mode
Whenever the Autovajin assumes this mode, it says “VEHICLE MODE”. The Vehicle Mode is the primary form of the Autovajin. It can drive by itself in this form and reverts to this form when it is significantly damaged. Faiz can force the Autovajin to return to this form if he presses the Faiz symbol on its chest when it is in Battle Mode.
The tires are made of Sol Rubber (a stronger version of Sol Foam) and the main chassis and plating is made from a similar substance to that of the Kamen Rider Gears.

[edit] Battle Mode
Whenever the Autovajin assumes this mode, it says “BATTLE MODE”. The Battle Mode is a humanoid robot that possesses the Buster Wheel handgun (a gattling gun/shield that becomes the front wheel in Vehicle Mode) and can fly like a helicopter by using the Scramble Rotor (the rear wheel in Vehicle Mode) on its back. The Autovajin is not particularly fast in Battle Mode, but it is more agile.

- The right handlebar (on its left shoulder in Battle Mode) of the Autovajin is also the Faiz Edge.
- The name "Autovajin" is a conjunction of "Autobike" (the Japanese name for motorbike, with "v" and "b" being interchangeable letters in Japanese), and Jin (the Japanese suffix for race; e.g. - amerikajin = American person).
