Fuala Griffon (ファラ・グリフォン, Fara Gurifon) was one of the Zanscare Empire’s most fervent commanders. Loyal to Fonse Kagatie and devoted to Marialism, she directed elite BESPA units during the push to activate the Angel Halo superweapon.

Biography

Fuala Griffon drove the Zanscare Empire’s Marialist offensives, leading psycommu-equipped units toward Angel Halo and terrorising the League Militaire throughout the Zanscare War.

Fuala Griffon served as a fanatical commander within the Zanscare Empire during the Zanscare War, enforcing Marialism and leading psycommu-equipped forces in the campaign to activate Angel Halo.

Service as Marialist enforcer

Fuala embodied the Zanscare Empire’s belief that spiritual purity justified brutal methods. She strictly enforced Marialist rituals among her troops and publicly chastised subordinates who showed hesitation. Her uncompromising attitude inspired fear and obedience, making her a valuable asset to Fonse Kagatie’s regime.

Psycommu warfare

Selected to command the empire’s advanced psycommu mobile suits, Fuala piloted machines such as the Rig Contio equipped with beam rotor weaponry. She used their mobility to devastating effect, launching relentless assaults on the League Militaire whenever the Reinforce Junior threatened Zanscare Empire supply lines. Her tactical focus on psychological pressure mirrored the empire’s broader terror strategy.

Angel Halo campaign and death

During the Angel Halo operation, Fuala coordinated the guarding fleet and attempted to capture Uso Ewin’s Victory Gundam to feed the superweapon’s psycommu systems. She deployed wave after wave of mobile suits to keep the League Militaire from breaching the fortress, demonstrating near-fanatical resolve as the project neared activation.

Fuala was ultimately killed whilst defending Angel Halo. Her death marked the collapse of Fonse Kagatie’s last major counter-offensive and dealt a severe blow to morale among surviving BESPA pilots. Without her leadership, Zanscare Empire’s remaining forces descended into infighting as the League Militaire closed in on the superweapon.
