The Dooms Driver Buckle (ドゥームズドライバーバックル, Dūmuzu Doraibā Bakkuru) is the transformation device used by Kamen Rider Solomon and Kamen Rider Storious. It is manifested by the Omni Force and Grimoire Wonder Ride Books and Grimoire Wonder Ride Book.
Design[]
The Dooms Driver Buckle is composed of the following parts:
- Dooms Ride (ドゥームズライド, Dūmuzu Raido) - The driver's starting device on top. By operating this, the page of the loaded Wonder Ride Book is expanded, and it has the role of a starter that reveals various powers.
- Magnicord (マグニコルド, Magunikorudo) - The driver's energy generator. By operating the two units at the same time, the energy of the universe contained in the Wonder Ride Book is extracted to generate an overwhelming power that makes it possible to even create the heavens and the Earth.
- Dooms Driver Shelf (ドゥームズドライバーシェルフ, Dūmuzu Doraibā Sherufu) - The part for storing the Wonder Ride Book. In addition to drawing power from the Wonder Ride Book and transmitting it to the Seiken, it also brings various abilities to the "Sword Robe".
- Karado Binding (カラドバインディング, Karado Baindingu) - The driver's exterior. It has the same strength as the large sword Caladbolg and has the role of protecting the built-in equipment from all attacks.
- Dooms Driver Belt (ドゥームズドライバーベルト, Dūmuzu Doraibā Beruto) - The belt. It deploys at the same time as the buckle body appears and fixes it to the user's waist. After that, it has the role of deploying the armor of the swordsman.
Functionality[]
Transformation[]
To transform into a Kamen Rider, the user inserts the corresponding Wonder Ride Book and presses the button on the top of the Dooms Driver Buckle. Depending on what ride books is inserted there, the transformation effect will vary:
- Solomon: A giant projection of the Omni Force Wonder Ride Book appears behind Isaac. As it opens, it engulfs him in a reddish-black smoke before several glittering golden lights appear and manifest itself into Isaac, forming the overall suit and armor, thus finishing the transformation.
- Storious: A giant projection of the Grimoire Wonder Ride Book appears behind Storious as an eerie projection of a demonic shadow shows itself in front of him. Storious himself projects three pairs of black, angel-like wings on his back. The demonic shadows begin pulsating with pillars-like black miasma, which rapidly changes color to a reddish black. The miasma then engulfs Storious whole, forming the overall suit and armor before the wings behind him cover most of his upper body. Finally, the wings spread out to feathers, revealing the completed suit and armor before they disperse into a tattered, bloody red cape, finishing the transformation.
- Alternatively, Storious simply sprouts three pairs of black angel-like wings that cover his upper body, before they disappear into feathers to reveal Storious clad in the completed Kamen Rider suit, armor, and the tattered cape.
Abilities[]
By pressing the Dooms Ride button on the top of the belt from one to two times, Kamen Rider Storious is able to initiate several special abilities:
- Open the Story of the End (オープン・ザ・ストーリー・オブ・ジ・エンド, Ōpun Za Sutorī Obu Ji Endo): Initiated by pressing the Dooms Ride twice. This ability has two variations.
- Storious is able to summon the Four Sages under his command to his location, who then transform into the Lords of Wise.
- Storious summons a giant sword sculpture from the sky, causing a huge tower lined with swords along its walls to emerge from the ground. This also speeds up the encroachment of the Wonder World.
Finisher[]
- Main article: Reading Finishers
To perform a finisher, the user closes the inserted Wonder Rider Book, opens the front cover again, and presses the button on the top of the belt from one to three times to perform one of three different finishers.
Solomon Break (ソロモンブレイク, Soromon Bureiku): Has four variations.
- Solomon blocks enemy attacks with his hand and absorbs them into a ball of purple energy. He then sends the energy back at the opponent, which releases the original absorbed attacks upon impact but redirected to damage the target.
- Solomon charges Caladbolg with crimson and black energy before thrusting the sword forward, sending the energy in the form of a blast towards the opponent.
- Solomon raises Caladbolg into the air with the sword surrounded in gold energy as a group of meteors appears above him. He then swings the sword downward, causing the meteors to crash into the opponents.
- Solomon creates a wave of dark red energy from his hand. Anyone struck by it becomes controlled by Solomon and will attack their own allies. In the case of Yuri, he will become trapped in the form of the Kougouken Saikou, which Solomon can wield. Isaac can also use this attack while untransformed. However, anyone under Solomon's control can break out of it with enough willpower.
Solomon Stlash (ソロモンストラッシュ, Soromon Sutorasshu): This finisher has five variations.
- Solomon creates a giant energy construct of Caladbolg that copies his movements and delivers a horizontal slash with it to a group of enemies.
- A giant version of the Omni Force Wonder Ride Book appears in the air and summons a giant copy of Caladbolg from its pages. The giant Caladbolg then performs a downward slash into the target.
- A giant version of the Omni Force Wonder Ride Book appears in the air and summons numerous giant copies of Caladbolg, some of which transform into King of Solomon and land on the ground.
- Solomon charges Caladbolg with red energy before his eyes glow and his entire body is surrounded by an aura of dark orange energy. He then performs two red energy slashes in an X formation, which combine and are sent toward the enemy.
- Solomon raises Caladbolg into the air with its blade covered in dark red energy. Numerous copies of Caladbolg then appear in the air and rain down on enemies.
Solomon Zone (ソロモンゾーン, Soromon Zōn): This finisher has four variations.
- Spiraling orange energy surrounds Solomon before he raises Caladbolg into the air, creating a sustained red ray of energy that travels upward until striking one of the books that Solomon has suspended in the air. This causes the book to open and create a spherical red field of energy below it. Anything besides a Rider that touches the sphere is destroyed, leaving behind only rock and dust.
- Solomon transports himself and others to a different location in the form of a gold page turning.
- Solomon produces three bursts of energy, transforming the surroundings into the Wonder World. He then creates five meteors and launches them at the enemy, before creating a stream of many more meteors covered in purple energy. Next, Solomon charges Caladbolg with red energy and launches two orange energy slashes, with the first being horizontal and the second being vertical. Finally, he swings Caladbolg downward, summoning a giant copy of it and sending it toward the enemy.
- Solomon opens a portal to the Wonder World and reaches his arm into it. On the other side of the portal, a giant version of Solomon's arm breaks through the Wonder World's sky and reaches for his target.
The Story of Despair (ザ・ストーリー・オブ・ディスペア, Za Sutorī Obu Disupea):
Ultimate Despair (アルティメット・ディスペア, Arutimetto Disupea):
The End of the World (ジ・エンド・オブ・ザ・ワールド, Ji Endo Obu Za Wārudo): Storious raises his hand into the air and creates an energy shockwave from it, speeding up the encroachment of the Wonder World.
Users[]
- Kamen Rider Solomon (Saber Episodes 36-40)
- Kamen Rider Storious (Saber Episodes 44, 46-47, Kamen Rider Saber: Final Stage)
Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
The Dooms Driver Buckle is voiced by Akio Otsuka (大塚 明夫, Ōtsuka Akio), who has voiced various characters in Super Sentai, including Hades God Dagon in Mahou Sentai Magiranger and Champ/Oushi Black in Uchu Sentai Kyuranger.
- When used with the Grimoire Wonder Ride Book by Storious, the Dooms Driver Buckle is also voiced by Miyu Fukuda (福田 みゆ, Fukuda Miyu) and Eizo Sakamoto (坂本 英三, Sakamoto Eizou).
Notes[]
- The Dooms Driver Buckle is a repainted version of the Jaken Caliburdriver and Seiken Saikou Driver.
- Unlike any of the devices in Saber, Kamen Riders Solomon and Storious do not transform with the help of a Seiken in any capacity. Instead, they simply need to insert their respective Wonder Ride Books and press the top button of the belt by hand.
