History Characters / GundamSeedDestinyProjectR

* BarrierWarrior: Has typically used machines with extensive defensive systems, first with the Avenger and then spoiler: the Absolution.
* CassandraTruth: Correctly guessed the spoiler: partnership between ZAFT and the Eurasian Federation. While he tries to delicately suggest the link to his squad-mates, no one believes him.

* MeaningfulName: spoiler: The Absolution. Absolution is the forgiveness of sin after making an act of contrition.

* LoveTriangle: Ends up in a fairly convoluted one with Bryan and Mira. She and Bryan had just begun to acknowledge their feelings for the other when Bryan's old flame turned up [[NotQuiteDead still alive]] [[spoiler: After Bryan has a long hard think on it and a talk with Mira, he chooses Sheryl]]

!!Lieutenant Atton Kruschencov

* VillianBallMagnet: Invoked when Bryan rejected her after she defected to the Joint Strike Force.

An infiltration and ambush expert, he started in a [[StealthInSpace GAT-S02R stealth Dagger]], then moved into the [[StealthInSpace GAT-S209 Matador]] electronic warfare unit before finally settling in to the [[StealthInSpace GAT-X207SR Nero Blitz]].

!!Captain Mira Ross (Strikex15a)

!!Lieutenant [[spoiler: later Commander]] Matthias Blaine (Sovereign)

* [[spoiler: CharacterDevelopment: Started as a selfish mercenary who couldn't have cared less about his team. Developed into a CO who actually gave a damn about his people]]
* [[spoiler: TheDragon: Becomes this to Djibril after Mira's defection]]
** [[spoiler: DragonWithAnAgenda: His goals are NOT Djibril's]]

* ScyllaandCharybdis: Blaine remained torn between his desire to return to his former power as an arms dealer or keep his life. He couldn't have both. Resolved after the raid on Armory 1.

* AceCustom: Flew a customized orange ZAKU when he dropped in to assist the ''Minerva'' that had been tuned above-spec for the ZAKU.

* Determinator: As of Heaven's Base, this has become his signature piloting trait: he won't quit even if his mobile suit has been blown down to an arm.
* HeroesPreferSwords: {{Averted}}. [[spoiler: When presented with the Infinite Justice, the successor mech to Athrun Zala's ZGMF-X09A Justice, one of Vincent's arguments against being assigned the suit is that he isn't melee oriented like Athrun was or Axel is (who is his preferred choice as the pilot). He's eventually sold on the idea by Athrun, Axel and Bryan's full confidence]].

A newcomer to the JSF and the 4th’s heavy weapons specialist, Wade is a second generation Anglo-Dutch Coordinator, veteran of the Bloody Valentine War and [[spoiler: a member of ZAFT’s elite special operations unit FAITH]]. The son of an accomplished MSOS (Mobile Suit Operating System) software engineer and a retired Copernicus City police inspector, Wade is of mixed Natural and Coordinator heritage. Initially hoping to be a teacher one day, his aspirations changed with the death of his half-brother and his pregnant girlfriend at Junius Seven when it was nuked. He subsequently fought for ZAFT from the Grimaldi Front onward until the massacre at Porta Panama – morally sickened by his comrades’ actions; he resigned from ZAFT in protest and would fight for the remainder of the war initially as part of the Clyne Faction and later Terminal.

Upon Chairman Durandal’s request, Wade transferred into the JSF and joined the ''Minerva'' prior to the Mira Ross Incident to bolster their forces. [[spoiler: En route to Earth, he was unofficially appointed to FAITH and asked by Durandal to evaluate the 4th Mobile Air Wing’s mental fitness, stamina and morale, with specific focus on Bryan Marshall for reasons yet disclosed.]] Since his reassignment to the ''Minerva'', Wade has proven himself a reliable pilot bringing a blend of intellect, culture and philosophy combined with a love of big guns and [[MoreDakka dakka]]. [[spoiler: Recently, he’s revealed his [[SecretTestOfCharacter secret mission]] to most of the ''Minerva''’s pilots and his membership in FAITH is now official. He also cultivated a short-lived friendship with [[BloodKnight Lucius Crassius]] prior to his untimely demise at the Battle of Icelandic Orbit, leaving him with a lot of unanswered questions.]]

He initially piloted a [[AceCustom JMW-03S Legionnaire]] equipped with the anti-MS Cerberus Wizard pack until the Battle of Lodonia; since the attack on Armory One, he’s piloted a limited production [[MightyGlacier JMW-07H Aiglos]], a creation of Sheryl Campbell’s tailor-made for his MoreDakka sensibilities.

* AdultFear: He has two daughters, aged 13 and 11. After the April Fool Crisis, the threat of GENESIS, Break the World, and having seen how such a young girl can be warped (he saw Mina at Kaohsiung [[spoiler: and helped kill her at Heaven's Base), it is probably a minor miracle that he hasn't gone completely gray or just killed everyone in sight just to be on the safe side.

Although still coping with the trauma he's endured (and filled with a burning desire for revenge), [[TheBusCameBack Vincent has returned]] to the ''Minerva'' [[spoiler: and resumed his original position as XO at Bryan Marshall's request, though both acknowledge that he's essentially splitting the difference with Axel.]] He initially piloted a [[SoLastSeason ZGMF-1001 ZAKU Phantom]] equipped with the Kestrel Wizard before upgrading to the [[TransformingMecha ZGMF-X23S Saviour Gundam]]. Currently, he's now piloting a [[AceCustom JMW-03S Legionnaire]].

* HeroOfAnotherStory: [[spoiler: In the time since he transferred off the ''Minerva'', Vincent was promoted to Lieutenant Commander, commanded his own squadron and put a noticeable dent into a Phantom Pain carrier group. He's also grown in terms of command ability and confidence to the point where he's stated to be alongside Bryan, "Mad Mal" Parsons and "Buckshot" Martens]].
* HeroicBSOD: Vincent suffers a big one [[spoiler: following the Battle of Icelandic Orbit - though the loss of his squadron and ship hurt him, it was seeing Aaron [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice with a large piece of shrapnel in his gut]] that leads to his freakout]].

* TheLancer: Was originally this to Bryan before his transfer [[spoiler: and now shares this spot with Axel post-Icelandic Orbit, though WordOfGod states that Vincent would prefer that Axel keep it, as he's done everything and then some to earn it]].
* TheMentor: Was this to Aaron from The Armory One Raid up to The Blockade Run. Though brief, it left a deep mark on both of them [[spoiler: to the point where Vincent suffers a HeroicBSOD upon first seeing Aaron critically wounded]].

!!Ensign Aeron Adda (Nihachi)
[[quoteright:130:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Aeron_4150.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:130:""So, he's a precious one to you is he? Maybe I should kill him slowly~"]]
One of the Extended assigned to the ''Seraphim'' Detachment, Aeron's past has been expunged by Blue Cosmos. Certainly the craziest pilot in the Phantom Pain, even by Extended standards. His mental conditioning has caused him to be particularly unstable, and particularly bloodthirsty to the point where he seems disregard the overall strategy to kill whoever has drawn his attention. Stole the ZGMF-X24S Chaos Gundam, flew in a [[SoLastSeason GAT-04 Windam]] until he was assigned to the [[SuperPrototype GAT-X303AA Rosso]] [[TransformingMecha Aegis]].

Begins flying a [[TheMario GAT-05S Strikeblade]], and is eventually assigned to the new [[AceCustom GAT-09S Avenger]].[[spoiler: Later upgraded to the [[SuperPrototype CAT-X128A Absolution Gundam]]]]

* ActionSurvivor: He is admittedly not the best pilot in the 81st (easily behind Chu and the Extended) but has fought far superior pilots and machines and has survived.

* BarrierWarrior: Has typically used machines with extensive defensive systems, first with the Avenger and then [[spoiler: the Absolution.]]
* CassandraTruth: Correctly guessed the [[spoiler: partnership between ZAFT and the Eurasian Federation.]] While he tries to delicately suggest the link to his squad-mates, no one believes him.

* MeaningfulName: [[spoiler: The Absolution. Absolution is the forgiveness of sin after making an act of contrition.]]

* PrecisionFStrike: Allows one by when [[spoiler: Durandel identifies the 81st to the world as the ones who killed Baum, and interfered with the Joint Strike Force's efforts to stop Break The World]]
* TookALevelInBadass: Cumulative. Started out riding a desk, and then to an EnsignNewbie who didn't know the correct striker pack he needed and openly showed fanboy tendencies over seeing a Zamza-Zah deployed for the first time, to a very capable pilot. [[spoiler: And now, he's even been assigned a Gundam.]]

!!Commander Heine Westenfluss
ZAFT's top gun, a spot he barely edged out Buckshot Martens for, Heine is back in ZAFT fresh off a rotation with the Joint Strike Force. A member of the [[ElitesAreMoreGlamorous FAITH special operations unit]], he reports directly to Chairman Durandel, much like the rest of FAITH.

* AceCustom: Flew a customized orange ZAKU when he dropped in to assist the ''Minerva'' that had been tuned above-spec for the ZAKU.
* AFatherToHisMen: Known throughout ZAFT for his ferocious protection of those flying with him, and his abilities as a mentor.
* GeniusBruiser
* HeroOfAnotherStory: He's been leading a Joint Strike Force Special ops team for most of the War until he returned to ZAFT to lead a FAITH unit.
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Orange Hair]]

!!Lord Djibril
The leader of LOGOS and one of the key creators of Blue Cosmos
!!!Tropes

* TeathClenchedTeamwork: The Phantom Pain pilots, who were part of an anti-Coordinator organization, find themselves demoted and working with some of the people they had previously been trying to kill. ZAFT members need to work with people who already have entrenched loyalties and teams, and who attempted nuclear attacks on a PLANT.

This is the cast of characters that compose the online play by post game ''Roleplay/{{GundamSeedDestinyProjectR}}''. This sheet covers active [[PlayerCharacter personnel]] of the Fourth Mobile Wing, Joint Strike Force, and the ''Seraphim'' Detachment, 81st Independent Mobile Group, along with major [=NPCs=] and retired characters.

[[folder:81st Autonomous Mobile Group, ''Seraphim'' Detachment]]

She continued to lead the ''Seraphim'' det through a series of running engagements against the ''Minerva''. [[spoiler: She eventually discovers that Bryan is still alive, and begins to question everything she'd done since she thought he was dead. This culminates in the Mira Ross Incident, where she defects to the Coalition. After leading the ''Minerva'' straight to Lodonia Island and Phantom Pain's illegal research labs, she is grabbed up by the Intelligence types. Secluded on Armory One for her debrief, she then moved to PLANT following the threat of nuclear assault on the Joint Strike Force's starside bastion.]]

[[spoiler:During her debrief at PLANT, Chairman Durandel persuaded her to join ZAFT. She [[TheCavalry reappears]] [[BigDamnHeroes during the Battle of Armory One]] to save the JSF HQ in the [[LightningBruiser ZGMF-X42S Destiny Gundam]] Following Armory One, she is assigned to augment the ''Minerva'' and remains onboard, under Bryan's command ]]

* [[Spoiler: BoomHeadshot: Taken out by a Blue Cosmos affiliated sniper during an ambush in downtown Onogoro.]]

* Cassandra Truth: Correctly guessed the [[spoiler: partnership between ZAFT and the Eurasian Federation.]] While he tries to delicately suggest the link to his squad-mates, no one believes him.

!!Lieutenant Junior Grade Kane Matthews (=VTyphoon=)

!!Lieutenant Junior Grade Kane Matthews (VTyphoon)

* 10MinuteRetirement: Resigned from the JSF on abandoning OMNI, only to fold back in once he started flying with ORB.

* 10-MinuteRetirement: Resigned from the JSF on abandoning OMNI, only to fold back in once he started flying with ORB.

* 10-Minute Retirement: Resigned from the JSF on abandoning OMNI, only to fold back in once he started flying with ORB.
* Dare To Be Badass: His stepfather, an AF mechanic, told him he wouldn't survive one day in the military. Kane took that as a challenge.

* AdultFear: He has two daughters, aged 13 and 11. After the April Fool Crisis, the threat of GENESIS, Break the World, and having seen how such a young girl can be warped (he saw Mina at Kaohsiung), it is probably a minor miracle that he hasn't gone completely gray or just killed everyone in sight just to be on the safe side.

* GenreSavvy: Has a decent grasp of why things play out the way they do, if sometimes only in retrospect. He's pretty sure, for instance, that the reason he spent most of his time with Phantom Pain on defense was because someone read Marn's profile and realized that he'd easily buy into defending EA territory from ZAFT, whereas putting Marn in the midst of something more aggressive or seedier might have pushed him too far.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: He was with one of the 'bad guys' in the last war, the 'good guys' before the current war started, the new batch of 'bad guys' for months, and now he's returned to the 'good guys'.

* MoreDakka: Oh yes. It worked aganist mobile suits when driving tanks, and it still works now.

* PapaWolf: A more literal example than usual for the game, as Marn is the only combat pilot in the 4th who has children. Threatening them nets a rather negative reaction. This is not necessarily a good thing: his wife and daughters were on Earth when Break the World happened, and it's likely that fear for them should such an event happen again contributed to Marn leaving the JSF.

* [[spoiler: GoOutWithASmile: The Lee half of her personality does this for the Mina half, shielding her stuffed rabbit from harm and throwing it overboard, thus giving the gentler, Mina half of her personality a happy memory and one last smile before she's vaporized by the ''Juno's'' [[WaveMotionGun Tanhausser]] ]]

!!Ensign Mina Lee (Kagezuchi)
An interesting product of the [[SuperSoldier Extended]] program, Mina is the ''Seraphim's'' [[MoreDakka heavy]] [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill weapons]] specialist. She suffers from multiple personality disorder, with the Mina personality being less aggressive, and the Lee personality being aggressive to the point of recklessness. Still stuck in an almost childlike mental stage, Mina sees all mobile suits as 'metal men' and just wants to keep her 'mommy' Mira [[spoiler: later her daddy Matthias]] happy. Lee, on the other hand, knows exactly what is going on, and ''hates'' that her personality is quickly submerged through the use of her Block word every time it surfaces outside of combat. She took possession of the [[SuperPrototype ZGMF-X31S Abyss Gundam]] at Armory One, briefly flew a [[MechaMooks GAT-04A Windam]] before she was assigned to the [[MightyGlacier GAT-X103AP Verde Buster]]. [[spoiler: As the only Extended available with heavy weapons skills, she is placed in the [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill GFAS-X01A Destroy Gundam]] at the Battle of Heaven's Base]]

* MightyGlacier: She pilots the Verde Buster, which has great firepower, but is the slowest of the Gundams. [[spoiler: And then she gets herself a Destroy...]]
* MoreDakka: Her solution to most problems
* TheNicknamer: Gives her mobile suits proper names such as Elizabeth and David, much like a child naming a favorite teddy bear.
* SplitPersonality: Of a FlipPersonality variety, as which girl you are talking to is obvious both through verbal cues and whether or not she's got one eye closed. Falls short of a true JekyllAndHyde because, while Lee is more aggressive and mentally older, Mina is just as violent and deadly in her own way.
* SuperSoldier
* TykeBomb

!!Lieutenant Chu Hong (Kagezuchi)
An OMNI pilot from the Republic of East Asia who signed on with Phantom Pain at their 'official' creation in the wake of Break The World. Flew a [[TheMario GAT-05A Strikeblade]] until she was assigned to one of the new [[AceCustom GAT-09S Avengers]] [[spoiler: and then later given the [[SuperPrototype CAT-X148A Legacy Gundam]].]]
