Steam Locomotive Jamen (スチームロコモーティブ邪面 Suchīmurokomōtibu Jamen), also known as SL Jamen (
History[]
SL Jamen was sent by Carantula to use his special smoke to create a magical circle of darkness to serve as a new base for them to launch attacks. This seems to have been an intentional attempt to succeed where Faucet Hildon had previously failed. The Kiramagers (barring Juru and Takamichi, who had gone searching for treasure) responded to a portal breach in Sector G-23 and were very surprised to find Smog Jouki coming at them and thought Galza had gone on another rampage. However, SL Jamen emerged from a tunnel and plowed through the Kiramagers whilst also giving them a large dose of his smoke. Sena and Shiguru tried to fight him with their Kiramai Swords but he easily caught and threw away their blades with his bare hands before knocking them down. Then he charged at Tametomo and Sayo who tried to blast him with their Kiramai Shots but he shrugged them off and decided that this was just a waste of time so he sped away into the city to the confusion of the Kiramagers. Moments later, he attacked the warehouse district and nearly ran down two workers but Juru (having gotten bored of watching Takamichi drill) shoved them out of the way just to get a faceful of SL Jamen's smoke. SL Jamen continued on his way until Takamichi cut him off and refused to move but changed and did combat with the Jamenshi who blocked multiple swings but a kick sent him back. The Kiramaigers later joined in with Tametomo and Sayo firing but he blocked them with his wrists and overwhelmed both Sena and Shiguru with ease when they attacked. However, they all managed to grab onto the Jamen even though Takamichi then sent all five of them flying with his drill attack and ticked off Tametomo. With three of the Kiramagers down and the other two bickering, SL Jamen made himself scarce since he was wasting time and chuffed off before the two bickering Rangers could stop him.
Later, SL Jamen rampaged through the wall of a bathhouse where Takamichi was relaxing and levelled the building whilst Carantula and Galza bickered about how easy Smog Jouki would have made the scheme until the five Kiramagers (now joined by Juru) arrived and were worried about thier comrade but he had survived and was extremely angry at the Jamenshi for ruining his off-time. SL Jamen chugged along so Takamichi tried to henshin but his Shiny Kiramai Changer had been lost in the dressing room which was now buried so the other Kiramagers went after the Jamenshi as he dug it out. Sena was able to strike out his feet from under him but he fed himself enough coal which powered him up that even the five Kiramagers combined were useless against his push attack and he managed to throw all five down. Juru left to help Takamichi and the other Kiramagers suffered heavily for it and were thrown down so the Jamenshi tried to run off again just for Mashin Mach to deposit Juru and Takamichi right in front of him. He did battle with the latter and punched at Takamichi but Kiramai Silver countered with a more powerful blow that sent the Jamenshi flying down. Takamichi had realized that teamwork was the way forward and officially joined the team proper and did their roll call although SL Jamen was close to completing his ritual. Knowing that they needed to stop this, Takamichi let himself get beaten down just to grab the Jamenshi from behind long enough that the newly created Mashin Duston was able to fire off a wave of garbage which permanently clogged up SL Jamen's funnel and prevented him from producing any more smoke.
Galza then arrived in Smog Jouki and SL Jamen was very happy to see him. Galza was pleased with his his near success and loyalty to Yodonheim so was then lent Smog Jouki as a reward. SL Jamen gratefully accepted it and changed it into dinosaur mode and was joined by his Jamen Beast counterpart Diesel Basra and they started to trash the city which prompted the Kiramagers to summon Kiramaizin. Kiramaizin immediately slashed the Diesel Basra across its torso but it was unfazed and Smog Jouki was more than a match for it so Juru summoned Mashin Express which forcibly took control of Smog Jouki and formed King Express which also ejected SL Jamen. King Express teamed up with Kiramaizin and unleashed a barrage of energy slashes but these didn't affect Diesel Basra who just roared and advanced, accidently crushing SL Jamen to death underfoot.
Saber + Zenkaiger: Superhero Senki[]
He would later return as one of the villains who would serve as a member of Asmodeus' army. SL Jamen would survive long enough to see his master’s plans seemingly come to fruition until Touma Kamiyama had managed to help Shotaro himself regain his passion for drawing out superheroes which had, in turn, revived all of the Kamen Riders and the Super Sentai teams back into existence. Ultimately, the entire army itself would be wiped out by the full and combined might of Kamen Rider Saber as well as his fellow swordsmen and the Zenkaigers along with Twokaizer while being supported by each and every one of the Kamen Riders that came before Kamen Rider Saber as well as each and every one of the Sentai Red rangers who were the leaders of their respective Sentai teams that came before the Zenkaigers.
Personality[]
SL Jamen was a very playful and energetic Jamenshi who was very proud of his Jamen attribute but was extremely loyal to his master Galza. However, he had a very one-track mind which limited his adaptability and led to his demise.
Powers and Abilities[]
Powers[]
- Shockwave Punch: When his punch connected with Takamichi's punch, he created a shock-wave strong enough to send both of them flying backwards.
- Smoke: Whilst dashing, SL Jamen could produce smoke out of his smokestack. This smoke was used to try and complete a magic circle in order to create a dark area around a section of a city.
Abilities[]
- Enhanced Strength: Steam Locomotive Jamen could plow through an entire building and reduce it to rubble all in one go and knock down the Kiramagers with single strikes.
- Enhanced Durability: Possibly due to the theme of his Jamen, SL Jamen could withstand any known attacks with a primary example being able to withstand several hits from the Kiramai Shot.
- Enhanced Reflex: SL Jamen was able to catch Shiguru's Kiramai Sword mid-swing with his bare hands.
- Enhanced Speed: SL Jamen was capable of dashing at super speed which made him fast enough to go from one end of a building to the other before it could collapse.
- Hand to Hand Combat: SL Jamen was able to overwhelm Shiguru and Sena with his bare hands despite them using their Kiramai Swords and match Takamichi move for move.
- Coal Empowerment: SL Jamen's speed could be enhanced by inserting a piece of coal into the firebox on the back of his head. Upon doing so, he would spray steam and fire from his funnel and could easily push at full strength even with the core five Kiramagers pushing against him.
- Strength Enhancement: After powering himself up, SL Jamen was able to throw Shiguru down with enough force that it took down all of the other Kiramagers who had been bracing his back.
- Coal Empowerment: SL Jamen's speed could be enhanced by inserting a piece of coal into the firebox on the back of his head. Upon doing so, he would spray steam and fire from his funnel and could easily push at full strength even with the core five Kiramagers pushing against him.
