Biography

Political career

His activities were characterised by scheming and manipulation, as he worked behind the scenes to influence the course of events during Celestial Being’s armed interventions.

Alejandro’s involvement with various factions and organisations allowed him to gather information and exert influence, making him a significant figure in the political landscape of the Anno Domini timeline. His scheming eventually led him to directly oppose Celestial Being.

Mobile Suit Gundam 00

Alejandro’s true agenda was revealed when he obtained control of a powerful mobile suit, the GNMA-Y0001 Empruss, a massive mobile armour developed by the supercomputer Veda. Using this mobile armour, Alejandro attempted to destroy Celestial Being’s Gundams and seize control of their technology.

Alejandro’s motivations were driven by a desire for power and control, as he sought to use Celestial Being’s technology for his own purposes. His actions demonstrated the ways in which political figures could exploit conflicts and technological developments to further their own agendas.

The confrontation with Celestial Being ultimately led to Alejandro’s defeat and death, as his ambitions were thwarted by the Gundam Meisters. His death marked the end of his schemes, though the consequences of his actions would continue to be felt.
