Characters (exclusive to the Manga)
| Dobert |
A Romefeller loyalist who was present at the theft of the mass production Gundams. Dobert was assigned to the Sandleon and sent to kill the thieves, but was defeated twice in combat by Tiel Nonbleu and her friends, dying in the second battle. |
Karl Nonbleu |
An OZ mobile suit pilot, Karl was assigned to pilot Gundam Lucifer during its test run. However, the ZERO System 2.0 proved unstable and drove him mad, causing him to believe that he could end all war by destroying those who would perpetuate it. Eventually he encountered his younger sister Tiel, unfortunately, Karl was beyond aid at this point, and when his sister refused to help carry out his mad plan, he attacked her, and the two siblings ended up dying as they fell into Earth's atmosphere. (Also Carl; also Noembreux.) |
Krung Ponramaai |
A childhood friend of Tiel Nonbleu, Krung was part of the team that broke into Romefeller's secret factory and stole their mass production Gundams. In particular, Krung ended up with the T'ien-Lung Gundam. However, the entire plan was simply a ruse by Krung, who wanted the Gundam so that she could join up with the Mariemaia Army, believing in the ideals it espoused. Upon reaching the Graveyard of Soldiers, Krung revealed her deceit, using T'ien-Lung's ZERO System to activate a pair of Capricorn Mobile Dolls and attempting to kill Tiel. Unfortunately for her, Wing Seraphim's own ZERO System activated, allowing Tiel to (unwillingly) kill her former friend with one attack. |
Semis |
A Romefeller loyalist, Semis was present at the theft of the mass production Gundams and was assigned to track down and kill the thieves. She piloted the Deathscythe Guilty, but was defeated once thanks to a surprise attack by Krung Ponramaai's T'ien-Lung Gundam. Even though her machine was upgraded with parts from the wreckage of the Hydra Gundam, Semis was killed in combat with Trinoi Levinsky's Gundam Dellinger Arms at the Graveyard of Soldiers. |
Tiel Nonbleu |
A 14-year old choir girl and the protagonist of Tiel's Impulse. Her older brother was an OZ test pilot who was driven mad by the Gundam Lucifer's ZERO System Ver 2.0. In order to find him, she came up with the plan to sneak into the colony where Romafeller built their mass production Gundams, all under the auspices of a choral performance. During the Gundamjack, she stole a Wing Gundam Seraphim, whose ZERO System Ver 2.5 would be used to help her track down older brother. However, the race to find her brother results in her losing her two best friends before finally encountering him. Unfortunately, older brother is completely mad thanks to the ZERO System and, when his sister refused to join him, the two fought and ended up falling into the Earth's atmosphere, dying in the process. (Also Noembreux.) |
Trinoi Levinski |
A former OZ soldier, Trinoi was forced into retirement due to combat injuries sustained to his left hand. Some time after this, Trinoi met Tiel Nonbleu and was convinced to aid in her plan to find her brother. After training her and her friend Krung in mobile suit piloting, he lead the infiltration of Romefeller's hidden Gundam plant and stole a Gundam Dellinger Arms. When the trio finally reached the Graveyard of Soldiers, they ran into Romefeller's pursuit force, and Trinoi was able to destroy both enemy Gundams, though at the cost of his own life. |

Capricorn OZ-11MS Tiel's Impluse
Affiliation:
Pilot(s): |
A test unit mobile doll developed by the
Mariemaia Army based on the Leo. It was originally intended to be a piloted
Mobile Suit, but the design was changed when it was learned that the Tenlong
Gundam's ZERO System could remotely operate Mobile Dolls. Originally
intended to be used in Dekim Barton's second Operation Meteor, it was
produced in large numbers but ultimately scrapped when Barton obtained the
plans for the Serpent.
Classification: Prototype mobile doll |
|
Gundam Deathscythe Guilty XXXG-01DG Tiel's Impluse
Affiliation:
Pilot(s): |
A production model Mobile Suit developed by the
Romefeller Foundation from data taken on the Gundam Deathscythe Hell. It
makes use of a special prism particle coating that renders the machine
completely invisible and disrupts enemy sensors. As a result, the MS was
developed as a close combat machine.
Classification: Mass production close combat MS |
|
Gundam Deathscythe Guilty
(Custom) XXXG-01DG2 Tiel's Impluse
Affiliation:
Pilot(s): |
After being recovered following its defeat,
Gundam Deathscythe Guilty was upgraded into this machine. Its most
prominent change is the addition of the Hydra Gundam's shoulder claws, which
increase its overall effectiveness and its ranged combat ability. It also
mounts the Hydra's thruster-laden skirt armor on its back, giving it
improved speed.
Classification: Mass production close combat MS |
|
Gundam Dellinger Arms XXXG-01HD Tiel's Impluse
Affiliation:
Pilot(s): |
A Romefeller mass production Mobile Suit based
off of the Gundam Heavyarms Kai. Intended to operate within a set, small
area, such as cities or bases, the design was refined to lessen its ranged
combat abilities to save money. As a result, it features less weapons than
its inspiration as well as removing the blade antenna, lowering the range of
its radar.
Classification: Mass production assault MS |
|
Gundam Lucifer XXXG-00W0L Tiel's Impluse
Affiliation:
Pilot(s): |
A trial Mobile Suit based off of the Wing Gundam
Zero, this machine carried no weapons as its main purpose was to test out an
improved version of the ZERO System. This aptly-named ZERO System 2.0
provided better predictions and faster reactions, but instead of simply
pushing the pilot towards certain courses of action, it would effectively
brainwash him into following them. Only one test unit was constructed, with
pilot Karl Noembreux falling under the system's effects and vanishing,
taking the Lucifer with him.
Classification: Prototype general purpose MS |
|
Gundam Sandleon XXXG-01SRL Tiel's Impluse
Affiliation:
Pilot(s): |
A Romefeller Mobile Suit developed off of the
base of the Gundam Sandrock Kai, this machine was intended for close combat.
This Gundam's main weapons, the hi-cold shotels, could reach Absolute Zero
(- 273.15 Centigrade), instantly freezing and shattering practically
anything they touched.
Classification: Mass production close combat MS |
|
Gundam Sandleon
(Custom) XXXG-01SRL2 Tiel's Impluse
Affiliation:
Pilot(s): |
After being defeated by Tiel Noembreux and her
allies, Romefeller recovered the Sandleon and upgraded it for another
attempt on the rebels' lives. This upgrade included parts from the Gundam
Asklepios, including its shoulder claws and leg propellant tanks, giving it
even greater speed and close combat ability.
Classification: Mass production close combat MS |
|
T'ien-Lung (Tenlong)
Gundam XXXG-01ST Tiel's Impluse
Affiliation:
Pilot(s): |
A mass production model Mobile Suit based off of
the Altron Gundam, Tenlong (meaning Heaven Dragon) was intended for space
combat. Its entire body was covered with solar fuel cells and reflectors,
allowing it to take in energy as long as it was within sight of the sun and
also reduced heat output. Additionally, Tenlong included a ZERO System that
allowed it to remotely direct Mobile Dolls. As it was intended to always
operate with such support, T'ien-Lung's weapons are limited to a pair of
dragon fangs.
Classification: Mass production space combat MS |
|
Wing Gundam Seraphim XXXG-00W0S Tiel's Impluse
Affiliation:
Pilot(s): |
A mass production model Mobile Suit, based off
of Wing Gundam Zero and the data collected from the Gundam Lucifer.
Following the disaster of its predecessor, the ZERO System was further
refined into the ZERO System 2.5, which corrected the problems of its
predecessor. When the system activates, a pair of wings emerges from Wing
Seraphim's hip armor, giving it increased mobility.
