History

Anime
An arm of Aptom's would survive the Guyvers Megasmasher attach which quickly regenerated the upper body of the Zoanoid who discovered the true extent of his regenerative powers. After learning this, his first task was to find a Zoanoid to consume in order to fully regenerate his body. As he stalked the woods near where he was defeated, the Hyperzoanoid Team 5 (minus Thancrus) approached. Aptom quickly struck with his arm and absorbed Elegan into his body and revealed that he was no longer under the telepathic control of the Zoalords. He stated that he would have his revenge on both Chronos and the Guyver for what they did to him. His newly developed form managed to cause Derzerb to fall before he promised Gaster that he would come for him next].
Aptom would remain in the woods knowing that while he absorbed a Hyperzoanoid, their power would not be enough for him to enact his plans of vengeance on the Guyver. He decided at this point that he needed even a greater power and plotted to absorb Commander Richard Guyot himself. As Aptom continued his plans, a powerful presence would appear that killed three Chronos soldiers with but a thought. This new force knew of Aptom hiding in the woods and quickly defeated him; thinking him dead, this individual left not knowing that enough of Aptom's body parts remained that he once again regenerated.
Background
Due to his development into a Lost Unit and the tortorous experimentation he faced under the Chronos Corporation, Aptom has a great deal of hatred for those who transformed him into a failed Zoanoid. This combined with the rejection the other Zoanoids saw in him made him a bitter and lonely soul. However, he managed to cope with his existence through the companionship he made with his fellow Lost Unit members and was deeply loyal to them. After their death at the hands of Guyver I, Aptom had a single goal which he worked for which was revenge. At first this was solely against Guyver I, however, this extended to Chronos as well for being the source of all his grief.
As such, Aptom is considered somewhat of a rogue. At first, being a loyal member of Chronos and eventually striking out against his fellow Zoanoids in order to kill Guyver I. After his second defeat, Aptom decided that he needed more power and decided to maliciously attack his fellow Chronos Zoanoids. This was because he discovered the power to actually absorb the abilities as well as bio-energy of other Zoanoids by a simple touch. Seeing this, he decided to attack the Hyperzoanoid Team 5 in order to incorporate their abilities and even dared to think of attacking a Zoalord in order to gain their abilities. This actions made him a primary enemy of the corporation and Aptom found himself in the ironic position of protecting Guyver I's friends. He somewhat justifies these actions as stating that he wants to kill Guyver I solely and demonstrates this by killing anyone that attempts to kill Guyver I.
Originally, Aptom only possessed the ability to imitate the appearance of his enemies and used this as a psychological weapon against Guyver I. However, Dr Balcus did further experimentation on him to make a more dangerous weapon that included the power to both copy appearance as well as abilities of other Zoanoids from a single cell sample. After his second defeat, his telepathic link to the Zoalords was reduced. He also discovered that he could regenerate himself from the smallest sample of his body. However, this reduced his strength and he required to absorb other Zoanoids for their bio-energy in order to power his form. His absorption abilities, known as cell invasions, are perhaps his most dangerous of powers, capable of incorporating other Zoanoids into his form with a single touch.

- Form 2; an improvement over the original by Dr Balcus which gave him the ability to copy both form and ability. He was also capable of merging different Zoanoid components. He demonstrates this by transforming into a merged form of Gregoyle, Vamore and Enzyme at which point he combated Guyver I only to be defeated.
- Form 3; finding out that he can reformfrom the smallest component part, Aptom's third form demonstrates a reduced telepathic link to the Zoalords. His new form was created after absorbing Elegan and his body is a that of Hyperzoanoid but the addition of a single Vamore bio-blaster on his right shoulder and his normal face.
- Form 4; after deciding to attack the remaining Hyperzoanoid Elite 5, Aptom absorbed Gaster and managed to make contact with Derzerb allowing him to gain their abilities. His body mutated into a new form which possessed the body of Derzerb, the bio-missile shoulders of Gaster as well as his chemical launchers on the bodies arms along with Elegan's tentacles and tail.
- Form 5; a newer form that came when Aptom managed to gain Zxtole's leg and merged with his damaged Form 4. This new entity was much smaller and compact, resembling Zxtole but possessed tentacles.
