The Outrage is an extremely powerful amplification device meant to channel and magnify magic energy designed as an anti-Gear weapon by Sol Badguy. The other version of it in the Guilty Gear Xrd games is the Junkyard Dog, which he designed as a "simple" version of the Outrage, although weaker than the original latter due to only having two Sacred Treasures, being designed in its incomplete construction. Until Strive, the Junkyard Dog was modified or returned once again into its (somewhat) complete version, renamed once more as Outrage MK. II.

Story[]

The original Outrage was created by Sol in retaliation against the restart of the Gear Project and completed by 2074. Because the sheer volume of magical energy produced by its completed form was not easily controlled, the Outrage was split by Sol into eight different components, later called the Sacred Treasures (神器, Jinki?)[1].

The Fireseal & the Thunderseal were later acquired by the Sacred Order of Holy Knights. The Fireseal was later stolen by Sol Badguy & the Thunderseal was given by Kliff Undersn to Ky Kiske[2].

The Zessen was used to power a Dimensional Barrier that surrounds a Japanese Colony, but was later stolen by Anji Mito (Anji claims he just found it during his travels)[3][4].

The Flashing Fang was acquired by the Conclave, but stolen from one of their bases named Harden Fort by Sol during the events of Guilty Gear Vastedge XT.

Abilities[]

The Outrage is a superweapon intended to be used in concert with the Saint Oratorio, allowing for the transportation of this high-energy spell. It was designed to amplify magic and optimize spell casting—which would improve the wielder's effectiveness in combat—, as well as reduce the chance of magic misfiring. As Frederick developed the Outrage, however, he realized that the power it contained was too much for any human to wield, and not even himself could handle it, so he split it into 8 different parts.

The original Outrage has 2 forms, a "practical form" (実用形態) in the form that appears to be a wand, while it's other form the "temporary assembled form" (仮組物理形態) takes the form of a large mechanical weapon of sorts[5].

Even after being split into 8, each part is still a source of tremendous power, with normal humans being unable to tap into it. Only those with a strong affinity for magic can truly harness the treasures' power.

Components[]

The known parts of the Outrage are the following:

  • Fireseal (封炎剣, Fūenken?) - Produces and amplifies fire magic. Used by Sol Badguy.
  • Thunderseal (封雷剣, Fūraiken?) - Produces and amplifies lightning magic. Used by Ky Kiske.
  • Zessen (絶扇, Zessen?) - Produces and amplifies wind magic. Used by Anji Mito.
  • Flashing Fang (閃牙, Senga?) - Produces and amplifies light magic. Used by Sol Badguy.
  • Dominator (益篤, Ekitoku?) - Unknown traits. In the possession of the Conclave.
  • Baikal (湖上白, Kojōhaku?) - Unknown traits. In the possession of the Conclave.
  • Two unnamed weapons.

Allusions[]

  • It is likely named after the Japanese thrash metal band of the same name, formed in 1982, whose singer has sung on multiple songs in the Guilty Gear series.

Trivia[]

  • It is suspected that each Treasure is a representative or sub-representative of the five element configuration of magic (Fire, Lightning, Water, Wind, and Ki).
  • The exact relationship between the Outrage and Gears is uncertain, but the Outrage symbol has appeared on Gear-incubating tanks in several illustrations. Half-Gear Dizzy has the Outrage symbol in her magic rings, together with the Gear mark and her name.
  • In the Guilty Gear Xtra, Tyr's awakening caused a resonance in Thunderseal, Fireseal and Zessen.
  • Justice's armor is said to be based on the Outrage, though it is of That Man's design[source needed].
  • One of the components, Baikal is named after the deepest lake in the world (as mentioned in GG World). This could hint at its trait being water.
