Introduction
Specular is one of four Organoids who appear in the series, dark blue in color. She's the tallest of them all, and compared to the others, relatively quiet and reserved. Her abilities are perhaps the most terrifying, however, affecting people instead of just Zoids.

Mind Control
Specular has exhibited the ability to control people's minds on numerous occasions. The lines between Specular, Rease, and the ancient insects used in conjunction are a little blurry. Specular emits the psycho waves, while Rease gives the actual commands (sometimes through a radio, sometimes without). The psycho waves appear to be projected to ancient insects the size of beetles. Once they land on a person or Zoid, the waves are then projected onto them, and soon they fall under their mental control. This ability can make the person unresponsive to anything but her orders, or can be used to a lesser extent where they're still able to communicate with their own consciousness. It's also worth mentioning that a theory was thrown out by Dr. D that this could be Ancient Zoidian technology instead of an inherit ability.
Maximizing Potential
Specular, like other Organoids, has the ability to bring out the full potential of a Zoid she fuses to. However, in her case, this exhibits itself as being able to dramatically increase the Zoid's size, modify its appearance, and even to a small extend improve its existing weaponry, such as introducing spikes to the pincers of the Double Sworder.
Flight
Like all other Organoids in the show Specular's able to fly. She uses the more standard booster-assisted flight, sometimes depicted as a ray of green light.
History
First Appearance, Episode 37
Specular's first appearance was near St. Konk. After Rease pretended to be one of the missing townspeople that the Guardian Force were looking for (victims of Specular's psycho waves,) Bang went off to find the others, and Sieg got distracted by a butterfly. Specular appeared to keep Sieg busy while Rease took her opportunity to kidnap Fine.
Later on, in the church, she fused to the Double Sworder Rease was using, immediately unlocking its potential. The Zoid grew to absolutely monstrous proportions, towering over their opponent, Bang Freiheit and his Blade Liger. Though the Double Sworder was damaged in the fight, and the battle effectively lost, Rease and Specular still escaped.
The Holciard Weapons Plant, Episode 41
Specular appeared at this facility alongside Rease, where they took control of everyone inside. When Rease presumably wanted to speak to Fine, Specular broke through the roof of their mobile observation base and kidnapped the girl, bringing her back to Rease.
From there, Specular continued to channel her psycho waves to the people of the base, maintaining their control. Rease gave orders through a radio connected to Specular's forehead via a cable, and when Fine ripped the cable out it caused Specular to suffer an electrical shock. This disruption allowed their control to falter on some targets, but they maintained control of the Zoids.
Rease and Fine's discussion continued to devolve, and when it reached a point of violence, Specular moved, seemingly with the intention to attack Fine. However, Bang Freiheit blasted through the wall just in time to interrupt this altercation. The Organoid and her master chose to escape on the Double Sworder rather than stay and fight.
Testing Raven, Episode 45
Specular helped Rease make a quick get away when she pushed her luck in testing Raven and almost got hit for it.
Lemuria Island, Episode 46
When Rease decided to fight the Bang again, Specular took control of her Double Sworder and emerged from the trees. She bombed the Blade Liger, antagonizing the Zoid until it took chase, then lead it out onto a platform on the water. When Bang shot down the Double Sworder, Specular bailed out and dove into the water, at which point, Rease bombed the platform, sinking the Blade Liger into the ocean.
This battle unfortunately didn't go as planned. Even in water, Bang defeated the Hammer Head. Rease was almost sucked into the underwater whirlpool, until he saved her. Afterwards he demanded answers from Rease, only for Specular to jump down from a pillar and snatch her up, taking her back into the ocean, likely to Hiltz's Whale King waiting in the depths.
Survival, Episode 62
After Hiltz fired on Rease, Raven, and their Zoids in New Helic City, it was unclear at first if Specular had lived. Rease awoke believing she hadn't, but was relieved to see her hanging from the ceiling.
Shadow, Episode 64
When Shadow was revived it was as the Dark Kaiser's loyal servant, with no recollection of Raven or their life together. This lead to him attacking Raven, who tried time and time again to convince Shadow that he wasn't an enemy. When Rease called for help Specular jumped into the fray and held Shadow off from attacking the pilots. The two Organoids scrapped for some time, with Specular eventually being sent tumbling by a tail whip.
Escape, Episode 65
Rease and Specular were knocked unconscious until the cavern began to collapse. By then Shadow had been retamed by Raven, and Specular was revitalized by the light of Zoid Eve. They woke their unconscious masters and flew them out of the cavern, to Eveopolis.
The Final Battle, Episode 66 ~ 67
Once they showed up in Eveopolis, Specular and Rease tried to stop the Dark Kaiser. They were distracted by Raven being attacked by three different Geno Saurers but there wasn't much support they could provide. Specular simply stayed at Rease's side, observing the battles. She, her master, along with Raven, Shadow, and the Geno Breaker all escaped Eveopolis before it vanished beneath the sands.
