14!Shura
15[[folder:In General]]
16A intergalatic race of [[BloodKnight humanoids who long for combat]], the Shura are the main antagonists of ''Compact 3''. While skilled in different martial art styles and techniques, the Shura exemplify their power using "Shura Gods" (''Shura Shin''), HumongousMecha that drain their lifespan in compensation of untold, immense power. Hailing from an unknown, dying world, the Shura travel through dimensions and find a place to settle and conquer, spreading their culture of conflict. Their greatest champions are the Shura Generals, each with a unique fighting style tailored to their Shura God.
17
18[[AllThereInTheManual According to the back-story]], there are four classes of Shura Gods: ''Retsu'' (Blaze), ''Gou'' (Strength), ''Chou'' (Super) and ''Ten'' (Heaven). Of the four, the Blaze-class is the most numerous and least powerful, being reproduced based on the limited number of Super-class Shura Gods that have become LostTechnology to the Shura (thus they have limited abilities, notably the lack of RegeneratingHealth). Unlike the Blaze-class, which can be piloted as long as you have enough "[[LifeEnergy haki]]", Strength-class Shura Gods and higher requires a powerful, exceptional fighter, and being a candidate to even pilot one requires many trials and rituals. Not only must one have the required strength, Strength-, Super- and Heaven-class Shura Gods are semi-sentient and chooses their own pilots. There exist many Super-class Shura Gods that are still slumbering, awaiting their true master.
19
20Strength- and Super-class Shura Gods that have gone through a "deification" process will gain a change in physical appearance (usually related to its user's fighting style and haki) and power. Few of the most powerful warriors can accomplish this. However, this process is considered life-threatening, [[DeadlyUpgrade as it requires the user to freely allow the Shura God to take nearly all of their haki]]. If there's not enough, the user could die, or the Shura God may only become deified temporarily. Finally, the Heaven-class Shura Gods are unrivalled in power, exceeding the capabilities of the previous classes and used by a select handful of the strongest Shura warriors. Only two known Heaven-class Shura Gods exists, and one continues to sleep in the Shura's Tenkuu Majou.
21
22Tropes regarding the Shura:
23[[hardline]]
24* AncestralWeapon: High-class Shura Gods are relics of their ancestors; current generation of Shura only has the technology to build the lowest class, namely the {{mooks}}.
25* AnimalMecha: All Shura MechaMooks are based on animals.
26* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Their culture exemplifies this, as the Shura King is the title given to its strongest warrior. The reason why Folka was speechless when he meets Shine Hausen is because since she is a princess, she should belongs to this. However, Shine is MistakenForBadass.
27* BossRush: The real battle in the final scenario of ''Compact 3'' begins as Alkaid gives it his all and raises the Shura Gods to use against the team. Shou can't believe that they have to take on all the defeated Shura Gods as well as Alkaid at once but Marvel tells him not to get weak and Quattro says that those are just fakes without the real owner piloting it but Alkaid says that those things are imbued with his power so they're as strong as the one the team once faced.
28* BloodKnight: Being this is a requirement for any Shura warrior. The {{Irony}} exists in Alion for being wholly this, moreso than other Shura characters, despite being carefree and laid-back.
29%%* KiManipulation
30* {{Leitmotif}}: ''Original Generations'' gives "The Law of the Shura" to any Shura General who doesn't already have one.
31* LifeEnergy: Powering a Shura God requires one's life. The only person to subvert it is Folka after he "apotheosizes" the Ialdabaoth.
32%%* MotionCaptureMecha
33* PutOnABus: Haven't been seen in an ''Original Generation'' game since their debut in ''Original Generation Gaiden''.
34* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is it "Phorka" or "Folka"? Is it "Fernando" or "Phernand"? Is it "Ialdabaoth" or "Yaldabaoth"? Is it "Valefor" or "Valefar"? In fact, the inherent use of this trope for the ''Compact 3'' characters and mecha is just mind-boggling.
35* ThemeNaming: All Shura Gods are named after mythical demons, mostly from Literature/ArsGoetia.
36* VillainTeamUp: After scenario 10, [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Yazan Gable]] notes that they've finally returned to the surface but they've lost Jerid and with this little firepower, they can't take out the Argama. A Titans soldier tells Yazan that a Shura mech is coming in their direction. It is Alion and Yazan asked what he wants since he has no business with the Shura. Alion asks if he's targeting the Argama and knows of a [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamZZ Rakan Dakaran]]. Yazan notes that Rakan was a Neo Zeon officer, maybe he'd like to hear more of what Alion wants to say right now. Alion says that Rakan has join forces with them to attack the Argama which is why he'd like Yazan to join as well. Yazan considers it and he thought, what the heck, Neo Zeon and the Titans may have been enemies but that doesn't concern him as long as he sinks the Argama so he's in.

40[[folder:Folka Albark]]
41[[quoteright:348:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/folka.BMP]]
42[[caption-width-right:348:[[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Those who face him]] [[YouAreAlreadyDead are already dead/scrapped.]]]]
43-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/YasunoriMatsumoto
44
45Protagonist of ''Super Robot Wars Compact 3'', who gets his limelight in ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Super Robot Wars Original Generation Gaiden]]'', Folka Albark is [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy a member of the combative Shura]], though due to his refusal to their ideals of constant fighting, he [[DefectorFromDecadence defects and flees from his people]]. He's also a practicioner of the fighting style "Kishin Ken", which is really [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Hokuto Shinken]] '''[[RecycledINSPACE IN.GIANT.ROBOTS]]'''. Do note since he's too much into the culture of the Shura since he was child, he can go a bit..."backwater, country boy" in front of human cultures.
46
47His story in ''Compact 3'' begins with him being pitted with his sworn brother Fernando Albark in a holy deathmatch. The winner would be [[ThereCanBeOnlyOne awarded the title of "Shura General"]]. On top of beating Fernando, Folka's doubts reaches its peak and spares him, leaving the Shura, yet causes his brother [[CainAndAbel further resentment and extreme bitterness]]. Folka goes off to join the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamCharsCounterattack Londo Bell]] and proceeds to search for a new lifestyle of the Shura. He faces lots of his brethrens and is forced to kill them, ultimately defeating Shura King Alkaid Naash and is anointed the new king. Folka leads his remaining people with the new lifestyle of Shura away into unknown territories.
48
49In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', Folka is sent on a scouting expedition to Earth alongside Fernando, where he crosses paths with OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Kouta Azuma]], after he dons the Roar Armor, becoming the HenshinHero "Fighter Roar". Folka kidnaps Kouta's younger sister [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Shouko Azuma]] per a deal with [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsReversal Duminuss]], prompting Kouta to chase after him. Shouko's questions to her captor end up exacerbating Folka's existing doubts about the Shura way of life, ultimately becoming the reason why he defects. The rest of the story goes pretty much the same as ''Compact 3'', except he gets his MidSeasonUpgrade in the middle of battle as opposed to in the middle of a intermission dialogue. That, and not all his brethren (including Fernando) end up dead.
50
51Folka's HumongousMecha is the Shura God "Ialdabaoth", which transforms into the "Apotheosized Ialdabaoth". They embody these tropes:
52[[hardline]]
53* AncestralWeapon: Ialdabaoth is centuries old.
54%%* AloofBigBrother: Towards Fernando, who's louder than him.
55* ArtEvolution: Not so much for him, but for the Apotheosized Ialdabaoth. In ''Compact 3'', it is a solid white version of the regular Ialdabaoth with a different design for the feet. In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', it has been completely redone to look white with more crimson highlights and looks overall more human-like.
56* AwesomeMomentOfCrowning: He is named the new Shura King after he defeated Alkaid.
57%%* ButNowIMustGo: End of ''Original Generation Gaiden''.
58%%* CainAndAbel: Inverted; he's the the good "Cain", while Fernando's one bad "Abel".
59* DeathGlare: Apotheosized Ialdabaoth's Shin Kishin Ken; may double as another ShoutOut to Hokuto Shinken about Kenshiro and his older brother Raoh's test of subduing a tiger with just their BattleAura.
60%%* DefectorFromDecadence
61* {{Expy}}: To [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Kenshiro]] when he's brought to ''Original Generation''. ''[[VideoGame/EndlessFrontier Super Robot Wars OG Saga: Endless Frontier EXCEED]]'' gives Folka his own {{expy}} [[Characters/EndlessFrontier Aledy Nassh]].
62* FishOutOfWater: Only at one point, when he meets [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Princess Shine Hausen]]; his first reaction is thinking her title makes her a complete badass.
63* {{Leitmotif}}: "Crimso Shura God"; in ''Original Generation Gaiden'', he gets "Roar, O One Who Breaks Supremacy" when he receives the Apotheosized Ialdabaoth.
64* LightningBruiser: Folka carries the rare "Soul" Spirit Command [[note]]Deal 2.5 times the damage for the next attack[[/note]] and the Ialdabaoth has the "Mirror Image" ability [[note]]50% chance of evading the next attack[[/note]]...and that's ''before'' we get into the Apotheosized Ialdabaoth.
65%%* KiManipulation
66* MegatonPunch: Apotheosized Ialdabaoth's Shinha Gou Shou Sen; the punch winds up with someone getting [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom punched through and shatters a mountain]], causing the foe AND mountain to [[StuffBlowingUp explode]] if it winds up being a [[DeaderThanDead Dynamic Kill]].
67%%* MidSeasonUpgrade: Apotheosized Ialdabaoth
68* NoMoreHoldingBackSpeech: After beating Alkaid in the final scenario of ''Compact 3'', Alkaid asks, "Folka Albark, you say that the old ways of our worlds were wrong and searched for an answer, is that so? What is the difference between our people and these people?" Folka answers, "I have fought alongside the people of these worlds and learned from them the answers to my question, the people of this world and us are exactly the same." Keita is surprised at Folka's answer but Folka continues, "Do you GET that, Shura King? We are like they are, we just have to find a way to live without fighting, that's all. We just didn't know HOW. It's not just about fighting; we have to learn how to build a new Shura World with our own hands." Van asks, "So that is your answer, Folka?" Alkaid says that ideals alone will not make it a reality, but Folka retorts that they can do it. Alkaid says again that anyone can SAY they can do it and Folka says that he and the remaining Shura will find a way. Alkaid says that it is time then that he joined his beloved Generals in the great beyond and says "Folka, I leave the Shura World in your hands."
69%%* ProudWarriorRaceGuy
70* PutOnABus: Leaves in the Swordian Fortress with the surviving Shura at the end of ''Original Generation Gaiden''. Neither he nor the Shura return for the ''Second Original Generation''. However, Folka is mentioned offhand one or twice by other characters.
71* RapidFireFisticuffs: Ialdabaoth's Kouha Kishin Ken and Apotheosized Ialdabaoth's Shinha Gou Shou Sen
72* ShoutOut: Kishin Mougeki Ken -> Hokuto Hiei Ken (its opening walk is like Kenshiro during the "Ai Wo Torimodose" opening of ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar''), Kouha Kishin Ken -> Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken/Hokuto Ujou Mou Shou Ha. Hell, every mighty attack is always followed with showcasing the kanji of the attack name on-screen.
73* SpamAttack: Other than those RapidFireFisticuffs, there's also Apotheosized Ialdabaoth's Shinha Kou Ken, where he spams energy bolts.
74%%* StarCrossedLovers: Him and Shouko; also mixes in MayDecemberRomance.
75* TooManyBelts: His outfit is loaded with it. Considering Kenshiro had a habit of losing his shirt every other second, the belts may be a way of preventing Folka from accidentally winding up half-naked in combat.
76

78
79[[folder:Alkaid Nassh]]
80[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/alkaid.BMP]]
81-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/{{Chafurin}}
82
83The Shura King, Alkaid Nassh led his people across dimensions trying to find a new land to inhabitate and spread their warrior culture. He picked Earth as a headstart, but had to lay low since his power was diminishing after the interdimensional jump. He later emerges after the death of Mizal Touval, and tries to eliminate the traitor Folka, clinging to the old ways of life. With his defeat, Alkaid commends Folka's strength and elevates him into the new Shura King, requesting he lead his people according to Folka's new way of life: a life without fighting.
84
85In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', Alkaid's role remains the same, except rather than unknown places, he sets his headquarters in the abandoned Swordian Fortress, and due to the Shura's mostly backwater technology, he applies help by aligning with Duminuss to teach him and his people how the fortress works. However, Alkaid's notably killed before Mizal, but still promotes Folka to king.
86
87Alkaid uses the Heaven-class Shura God "Extim" and uses the fighting style "Haoh Ken". When he's down to his last moments, he evolves it into the "Raha Extim". Tropes associated with Alkaid are:
88[[hardline]]
89%%* BeamSpam: Raha Extim's Haou Shuen Hadou Ha
90* {{Expy}}: Undoubtedly [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Raoh]], except without the AloofBigBrother part. He even [[ShoutOut tributes to Raoh's awesome "Defiant Fist To Heaven" pose]] during Raoh's last words in the Raha Extim's Haoh Hametsu Ken attack. Works well as a {{Pun}} too: 'Shura King' is spelled in Japanese as 'Shura-Ou'. Get the last 2 or 3 syllables and it becomes 'Raou/Raoh'.
91%%* GoodScarsEvilScars
92* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Subverted; Alkaid hands most of the Shura's power to [[SmugSnake Mizal]], but he ''didn't care'' if Mizal's [[TreacherousAdvisor using it for his own agenda]], since at least he's using it to further the Shura's tradition of carnage.
93%%* KamehameHadoken: Raha Extim's Haou Shou Ha. Bonus points for looking like [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Raoh's Hokuto Gou Shou Ha.]]
94* {{Leitmotif}}: "One Who Walks the Path of Strong-Fisted Supremacy" in ''Original Generation Gaiden'' (back in ''Compact 3'', it was merely the [=BGM=] that plays whenever the Shura appear)
95* NobleDemon: A ruthless warlord Alkaid may be, but he mourns for the deaths of his fallen brethren in battle...''even if they just betrayed him seconds ago''.
96* NoOntologicalInertia: At the end of ''Compact 3'', Alkaid says that there's no worry. Once he dies, the dimensions should return to their rightful state without his power tugging at it. These people should be sent home. Alkaid then notes that he has no regrets about his life and to meet Folka and his new way. In the end, he gives Folka his thanks to which Folka says that the same goes likewise. Alkaid then dies with the Raha Extim exploding and there is a flash.
97* MegatonPunch: Raha Extim's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGZ9crz_ikA Haou Hametsu Ken]], which will get you [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom punched across mountains]].
98%%* OneWingedAngel
99* OrcusOnHisThrone: Although once you actually face Alkaid, you may either be glad he stayed on his throne through most of ''Original Generation Gaiden'' and/or begging him to sit back down.
100* WarmUpBoss: Get used to fighting him and his boatload of HP, RegeneratingHealth and power. If you ever so much as throw your console out the window because you believe he's too tough, you'd better throw ''yourself'' out the window when you fight [[spoiler:[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Dark]] [[ThatOneBoss Brain]]]].

103
104[[folder:Fernando Albark]]
105[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fernando.BMP]]
106-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/WataruTakagi
107
108Folka's sworn younger brother, Fernando competes against Folka in ''Compact 3'' in a "holy deathmatch" to determine who becomes the next Shura General. Folka wins, but refuses to deal the finishing blow, leaving Fernando humiliated, swearing to kill his brother for it. Throughout ''Compact 3'', he gets defeated in numerous encounters against Folka, thus turns to Mizal to enhance his power. Mizal, however, uses Fernando in his own schemes by making him into an [[UnstoppableRage uncontrollable berserker fueled with rage]]. Unfortunately, he didn't take into account that by causing Folka and Fernando's sworn older brother Altis Tarl to die, [[NiceJobFixingItVillain Fernando's anger turns against Mizal]]. He's then cured by Maysis Mark, allies with Folka in killing Mizal, then puts a defiant stand against Alkaid, [[spoiler: only to [[DroppedABridgeOnHim get himself killed]]]].
109
110Fernando in ''Original Generation Gaiden'' begins the story as Folka's grudging servant due to his life having been spared in their deathmatch, but becomes his antagonist when the latter defects, leaving Fernando disgusted at Folka for betraying his people for [[LoveRedeems the sake of a woman]]. Fortunately, he avoids his intended ''Compact 3'' death and joins Folka in defeating Alkaid, and later, Dark Brain.
111
112Fernando uses the Shura God "Valefor", which is essentially a blue/purple PaletteSwap of the Ialdabaoth, thus also practices Kishin Ken. In ''Compact 3'' he eventually apotheosizes it in the same fashion as Ialdabaoth, but in ''Original Generation Gaiden'' he's unable to generate enough haki and instead can only briefly transform it during the Valefor's strongest attack. Tropes associated with Fernando:
113[[hardline]]
114%%* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Perhaps voluntarily...or not...
115%%* CainAndAbel: Inversion
116%%* CantCatchUp: Primarily his problem with Folka, whether he wants to admit it or not.
117* CompositeCharacter: A unique twist - Fernando's a loose cross between [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Shin and Jagi]], being Folka's brother/best friend pulling a FaceHeelTurn, having become obsessed in defeating him and eventually manipulated in order to get a MidSeasonUpgrade. His fate in ''Original Generation Gaiden'' may be a WhatIf take on ''Fist Of The North Star'' continuity, in regards to "What if Shin realized he's being duped by Jagi?"
118* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Only in ''Compact 3''; where after he pulled a HeelFaceTurn for good, he decided to cover for Folka by attacking the Shura King, [[HeelFaceDoorSlam killing him off that abruptly without being able to enjoy his time as a good guy.]]]]
119* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:He ends up allying with the heroes by the end.]]
120* HotBlooded: He's a lot more hot-headed than Folka, so you can expect more shouting from him.
121* {{Leitmotif}}: "Resisting Against Fate" in ''Original Generation Gaiden''
122* ShoutOut: If we take into account who Fernando is an {{Expy}} of, then the Valefor's Kishin Kougeki Ken (when it's an enemy unit) is a mirror of Shin's Nanto Gokuto Ken/Nanto Gokusatsu Ken.
123* SparedByTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:He lives in the ''Original Generation'' continuity.]]
124
125[[/folder]]
126
127[[folder:Alion Lucada]]
128[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/alion.BMP]]
129-> '''Voiced by:''' Shigeru Shibuya
130
131The self-styled "[[RedBaron Freedom Knight]]", Alion Lucada isn't a Shura General, but he's definitely strong enough to lead several Shura troops and get a unique Shura God. He's heavily undercharacterized in ''Compact 3'', and dies a generic, ruthless EliteMook, with a bit of laid-backness. In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', however, he becomes an AscendedExtra, with an upgrade in personality to ChivalrousPervert who ''hits on his own mecha'' for jokes and one of the people who ends up [[spoiler:pulling a HeelFaceTurn and joins Folka]].
132
133Alion pilots the anthromorphic stallion Shura God "Agares" and uses the style "Marou Ken". Tropes associated with Alion:
134[[hardline]]
135* AdaptationalHeroism: Beforehand, he was just a typical evil ravaging Shura with minimum characterization. In ''OG'', he's a freedom-loving mercenary-like warrior that moves like however he wants, which eventually he decided to swing into heroism.
136* AscendedExtra: From an EliteMook in ''Compact 3'' to a recurring antagonist, [[spoiler: later playable character]], in ''Original Generation Gaiden''
137%%* ChivalrousPervert: Most likely in ''Original Generation'' only...at Maysis' expense.
138%%* CoolHorse: Agares...well, an anthromorphic version, anyways.
139* {{Expy}}: His make-shift martial arts and self-styled title makes him [=SRW=]'s version of [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Jyuza of the Clouds]]. The Agares resembling a horse may be a brief ShoutOut to Koku-Oh, since Jyuza once stole and mounted the stallion from Raoh.
140* GratuitousEnglish: He has a tendency to put "My Honey" ('Mai Honii') before his Agares as a way to 'hit' on it.
141%%* HeelFaceTurn
142* {{Leitmotif}}: "Ask the Wind Where Your Destination Lies" in ''Original Generation Gaiden''
143* NonIndicativeName: He says his technique is "Marou Hyakuretsu Ken", but... he hits 500 times alone, and when using his double image, that is doubled into 1000 times. So, no, he hits ''more'' than 100 times anyway.
144* RapidFireFisticuffs: Interestingly enough, the Agares' Marou Hyakuretsu Ken is a direct ShoutOut to Kenshiro's Hokuto Hyakurestu Ken.
145** Marou Ken is primarily this, by raining multiple weak, but fast blows upon enemies, compared against Kishin Ken, which which involves only a few strong blows, or the elemental fist styles of Altis or Maysis.
146* ShoutOut: Aside of the usual allusion with ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar'', Alion also has allusions to ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders'', in particular Jotaro Kujo: Marou Hyakuretsu Ken had him create a copy of his Agares to act like his Stand (Star Platinum), one of his possible {{Kiai}} is "ORAORAORAORAORAORA!!", and he has a tendency to say "Yare yare (da ze)/Good grief.", Jotaro's [[CharacterCatchphrase catchphrase]].
147* SparedByTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:Like Fernando, the ''Original Generation'' continuity lets him live.]]

151[[folder:Altis Tarl]]
152[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/altis.BMP]]
153-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/YasunoriMasutani
154
155The eldest of the sworn brothers (consisting of him, Folka and Fernando), Altis of the Flash is the top Shura General Alkaid has to offer. Despite that, this man upholds HonorBeforeReason and prefers a straight-up fair fight. He's later pitted in a match to the death against Folka, which winds up with Altis dead, but it turns out to be a XanatosGambit for Altis to buy time so Maysis can find a cure for the BrainwashedAndCrazy Fernando. In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', Altis occupies the same role but this time pulls a HeroicSacrifice for Folka, protecting him from a fatal attack by the homunculus [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsReversal Tis]], [[spoiler: but was really Arco Katworl in disguise]].
156
157Altis is the master of the centaur-like Shura God "Mardikt". Tropes associated with Altis:
158[[hardline]]
159%%* AloofBigBrother: ''Moreso'' than Folka to Fernando
160%%* AntiVillain
161* CastingGag: Why he has Creator/YasunoriMasutani as his voice actor might have something to do with how the Mardikt by default is red colored and ''OG Gaiden'' was released during the hightime of the ''VideoGame/DynastyWarriors'' series, where Masutani has been a mainstay cast member as Guan Yu who rides to battle with the red-colored Red Hare.
162* CompositeCharacter: Altis could be a cross between [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Toki and Shuren of the Flames]], being an AloofBigBrother of our Kenshiro pastiche (though he also carries shades of Raoh, what with the Mardikt looking like a centaur when compared to Koku-Oh), and is [[AntiVillain kind-hearted, rather than villainous]]. Like Shuren, Altis [[ColourCodedForYourConvenience wears red]] and [[PlayingWithFire has the element of fire]].
163%%* HeroicSacrifice
164%%* RedBaron
165* StealthMentor: While Altis can't bring himself to abandon the Shura way, his actions in ''Original Generation Gaiden'' are implied to be deliberately done with the intent of fostering Folka's doubts so that his brother can find a better path for the Shura.

169[[folder:Maysis Mark]]
170[[quoteright:322:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maysis.BMP]]
171-> '''Voiced by:''' Yuriko Yamaguchi
172
173The only female Shura General, Maysis of the Ice Spear accompanies Altis most of the time. In fact, she's in love with him, but [[{{Tsundere}} projects an aloof face]] to others. Along with Altis she wants to cure Fernando and eventually joins Folka in killing Mizal since he orchestrated Altis' death. Shortly after, she makes a defiant stand against Alkaid, only to get herself killed. In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', Maysis has the same role, except since Altis' XanatosGambit does not exist here, she confronts Folka right after Altis dies. [[spoiler: News comes in swiftly that everything was orchestrated by Mizal, and Maysis, having overexhausted and injured herself heavily against fighting Folka, is told by Alion to lay low and recuperate. Maysis spends the rest of the story in the sidelines, but still accompanies Folka when he had to leave with the whole Shura race]].
174
175Maysis' Shura God is the "Peirines". Tropes associated with Maysis:
176[[hardline]]
177* AmazonBrigade: Leads an all-female squad of Shura {{mooks}}.
178%%* AnIcePerson
179* EvenEvilHasStandards: In ''Compact 3'', Maysis starts out like your basic, cookie-cutter villainess, but is disgusted enough at Mizal's scheming that she was willing to kill him. Altis had to restrain her from not going off the rocker on the former.
180* {{Expy}}: A loose one for [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Ryuuga]], due to the closeness to the Toki-figure (Altis, although their relationship didn't end up fatally) and the usage of [[AnIcePerson cryokinesis-based]] martial arts. And then just give that to the female gender...
181* HeelFaceTurn: ''Original Generation Gaiden''; [[spoiler:however, she isn't playable]].
182%%* RedBaron
183%%* TheSmurfettePrinciple
184* {{Tsundere}}: If you notice, she has kind of a similar hairstyle to a certain {{Tsundere}} [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Shinigami]].
185%%* SparedByTheAdaptation: Despite being [[spoiler: unplayable, much to the joy of players]].

193The advisor to the Shura King, Mizal of the Severe Earthquake is so blatantly [[TreacherousAdvisor treacherous]] he [[TheStarscream plans to harness enough power to overthrow Alkaid and usurp the throne]]. His underlings include Magnaz Ald and Arco. In ''Compact 3'', he contacts various factions and manipulates them to further his ambitions, including goading Fernando to get BrainwashedAndCrazy. His plan comes to a halt when he causes Altis' death, which had his brainwashing on Fernando spectacularly backfire, and is confronted by the Londo Bell, Folka, Fernando and Maysis, which gets him killed. In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', his only contact is fellow SmugSnake Duminuss, under the pretense of "teaching the Shura how to use the Swordian Fortress". Since Alkaid was defeated, Mizal takes the chance to challenge Folka for the position of Shura King; naturally, he gets himself killed in this continuity, too.
194
195Mizal's mecha is the Shura God "Glasyalabolas". Tropes associated with Mizal:
196[[hardline]]
197* BeardOfEvil: One nasty, ''evil'' goatee
198* EvilChancellor: During a scenario in ''Compact 3'', Folka tells [[Manga/GetterRobo Ryouma Nagare]] that the various Shura troops are now definitely gathered and working under the one named Mizal who will stop at nothing to gain what he wants which also includes playing dirty as Hayato asked. [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Kamille Bidan]] notes that with someone like that at the helm of the Shura army and Folker agrees that it's not something to laugh about.
199* ManipulativeBastard: During a ''Compact 3'' scenario, The [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWingEndlessWaltz Mariemeia]] troops then says that they trusted those people too much but that's fine since there's enough firepower here anyway to get Mariemeia back. To their everlasting regret, they find out that they're absolutely wrong. Heero note that it's over and Quatre says that even now, there are still people that cannot let go of Dekim's ambitions. Folka says that's probably not it, Mizal probably manipulated and incited them into taking action. Zechs Merquise asks if this Mizal is someone who was the mastermind behind this and [[Anime/AuraBattlerDunbine Shou Zama]] says that if they don't take him out, then incidents like the Mariemeia uprising could occur again in the future.
200* RedBaron
201* SmugSnake: As far as Mizal is concerned, him standing on the top and ruling over everyone is the #1 priority ever, and both Magnaz and Arco are just his UnwittingPawn no matter how many 'praises' he showered to them.
202* TheStarscream: His plan is to take over Alkaid as Shura King in ''Compact 3''. Downplayed in ''Original Generations'', he still doesn't have Alkaid's interests with him, but he's not very open in his treachery and seems like to be at least loyal to Alkaid. But when Folka becomes the King, Mizal absolutely has no respect on him and wants to take over (maybe because he thought Folka is weaker than Alkaid? Big mistake...)

211A {{Gonk}} Shura General with GIANT lips and... pretty much DumbMuscle personified, Magnaz of the Heavy Quake serves as Mizal's [[strike:ally]] pawn, which Folka [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech points and lampshades out]] before he dies in ''Compact 3''. In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', he gets an AscendedExtra bit for harrassing EarlyBirdCameo [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Touma Kanou]] during the early stages of the Shura invasion...then the Earth Federation Army comes to intervene, and things start snowballing down for Magnaz, like usual. Notably, while he tries to sucker punch Sanger by disabling his [[{{BFS}} Colossal Blade]], the resident badass reveals why [[IAmNotLeftHanded he's still a man to be reckoned with, despite his primary weapon being knocked away]].
212
213Magnaz uses the equally {{Gonk}}-looking Shura God "Andras". Tropes associated with Magnaz:
214[[hardline]]
215* CaptainErsatz: Basically the embodiment of many-many mohawked {{Elite Mook}}s that [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar trampled on the weak innocent, ruled over settlements in the wasteland post nuclear strike at 19XX until eventual encounter with the savior and dying while screaming "HIDEBU!"]], although his fat stature brings Mr. Heart to mind. After all, his first deed was to take over Hakodate and start a reign of terror over there.
216* ChestBlaster: Andras' Kyorei Fun Tenshou, though it really comes from the Andras' gut.
217* DumbMuscle
218* FatBastard
219* {{Gonk}}: Replace the usual mohawk with overly gigantic lips and it gets the message across on which character he's emulating...
220* ItsPersonal: Sanger Zonvolt directly interrupted his reign of terror, and for that he took extra annoyance at him and devised a plan to get rid of the Zankantou as a result.
221* RammingAlwaysWorks

229A saner version of Mizal's [[strike:allies]] pawns, Arco of the Transformation specializes in [[ShapeShifter shape-shifting]]. He's killed off earlier, around the same time as Alion, while impersonating Fernando. In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', he becomes a slight AscendedExtra by impersonating Tis instead and deals the fatal blow to Altis, to which he would've done the same to Maysis, but Alion intervenes. He joins Mizal during his last stand following Alkaid's defeat. Arco's also responsible for kidnapping Kouta's sister Shouko.
230
231Since Arco's not a Shura General, he has no Shura God, nor any specific mecha to use. Instead, he pilots the machine of whoever he's impersonating (though the capabilities of his machine-impersonating vary: in ''Compact 3'', he could copy Fernando's Valefor (though still of a lesser power); in ''Original Generation Gaiden'', he couldn't copy Tis' Durgatel, thus sticks with a Mironga). Tropes associated with Arco:
232[[hardline]]
233* AscendedExtra
234* BaldOfEvil
235* ButtMonkey: Deconstructed: He was ridiculed as someone who has no Shura God and as a result, harbored great enmity towards anyone from Shura and did his best to get promoted to the top and then [[WhosLaughingNow stomp on whoever ridiculed him.]] Unfortunately, he died ignobly before that.
236* CaptainErsatz: Of [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Amiba]]
237* OutOfCharacterAlert: During the attack on the Omega Missile base in ''Compact 3'' Fernando then says, "What a redundant moron" which perks Folka's ear and Folka says that he won't be hesitant anymore, he'll defeat Fernando and Fernando says that Folka can try. Folka then smirks and says "How about revealing your true face... You can't fool my eyes." "Fernando" then asks how Folka knew that he wasn't really Fernando and Folka says that he hasn't forgotten Fernando's fist (The way of the martial arts, fighter recognize, communicate, etc with their fist) "Fernando" reveals himself to be Arco who says that he didn't think Folka had gotten this strong and Folka says that the power of belief has made him stronger. Arco then says that when the REAL Fernando awakens then Folka wouldn't be talking big like this and Arco notes that this is it for him, looks like what that girl said was true.
238* ShapeShifter
239* RedshirtArmy: Arco's usually found piloting MechaMooks, but in ''Original Generation Gaiden'', he uses a Mironga.
