FAQ

Van Freiheit

Van Freiheit (pronounced "Flyhight") is the hero of Zoids (both Chaotic Century and Guardian Force). He is the son of Dan Freiheit who was killed when Van was about 5 protecting the Wind Colony (their village) While being chased by bandits, Van discovers an organoid which he found while hiding in ruins, who he named Zeke. He also discovered Fiona in a chamber behind the one he found Zeke in. Zeke resurrects an abandoned Shield Liger and Van is able to defeat the bandits. 

Van himself is a good kid, he's hard headed, but he is loyal to is friends and has a good heart.  Van starts out as being a lousy pilot without his organoid, but he is a fast learner and will pull through in times of need. Van pilots a Shield Liger which later becomes a Blade Liger.  Despite what was said in the first episode, van is actually about 15, I mean, does he look 17? It was obviously an translation error .

Zeke

Zeke is Van's Organoid, and his best friend. Van named him Zeke after his dad's Command Wolf who was named Zeke. He is very loyal to Van (like a dog), and will only listen to Van and Fiona. The two become best friends (the dynamic duo, haha).

As an organoid, Zeke has the ability to fuse with another Zoid, enhancing it's fighting ability. He is able to perform minor repairs to it as well. Zeke is also able to become one with a human, and act as an escape pod if the pilot is in danger. He is sliver, not white, how blind are the people who think he is? haha. Van even says he's silver in one episode. Zeke is the one who resurrected the scrapped Shield Liger that was lying outside the ruins which Van found him. Later, Zeke resurrects the Shield Liger yet again, but in the process evolving it into the more powerful Blade Liger.

Fiona

Fiona was found in the capsule next to Zeke. At first she remembered nothing; not even her own name. Over the course of the show she slowly remembers her past, such as that she is an Ancient Zoidian. She is also able to communicate with Zeke (who also seems to hold her memories), and can become one with Zeke to perform amazing things, such as resurrecting and evolving the Shield Liger into the Blade Liger.

Fiona herself is a very caring and compassionate person, and never thinks of herself. She loves Van (it's kinda hard not to notice that).

Irvine

Irvine is a mercenary who happened to find Fiona and Van in a sandstorm and saved them. When he he discovers Van has an organoid (the very thing he is searching for) he spends a great deal of time trying to get Zeke when Van's back is turned. Eventually he stops and becomes his friend.

Irvine is a classic witty, bad-attitude tough-guy. He is actually a good person though, funny too, and very cool. he is an experienced pilot and pilots a modified Black Command Wolf.

Moonbay

Moonbay is a transporter who does transport work for whoever pays her. She has an eye for money and is very sneaky. She's a good person though, and sticks up for her friends. She is a careful planner and does a lot of the plans during their trips.

She also knew Irvine before she met Van and Fiona, and probably has a thing for him.

Raven

Raven is an extremely skilled pilot, probably the best Van has ever encountered (in Chaotic Century). Cold and ruthless, he does as he pleases and only answers to Prozen. Like van, he has an Organoid, Shadow, whose origins remain unknown until later in Guardian Force.

Raven becomes obsessed with defeating Van as the story goes on, starts out with a Red Zaber Fang, then after it is destroyed, gets a Geno Saurer. Much of Raven's behavior is caused by traumatic events during his early childhood (we learn about them in Guardian force). Interestingly enough, Raven hates Zoids, except maybe Shadow.

Shadow

Shadow, like Zeke, is an organoid. Like Zeke he is able to fuse with another Zoid, and enhance it's fighting abilities. Shadow is Black (sometimes looks dark gray). has different head features than Zeke, and has wings on his back instead of boosters, that are retracted when not in use.

He is loyal to Raven, and no one else, and will only take orders from him. While Zeke is more like a friendly dog (usually), Shadow is very dangerous to anyone except Raven.

Captain Rob Hermann

Captain of the Republic's 1st Platoon, Red River Line. When he and Van first cross paths he jails Van and the group suspecting them of being Imperial spies. He later pardons them and gives them a note saying that they're with the Republic, and puts them to work as well.

At first, he seems like an overconfident jerk, but later turns out to be a nice guy, and also helped Van become a better pilot and has helped the group several times. Even though he is just a captain, he's the son of the President of the Helic Republic, so he's definitely respected and well known among the military. 

Lieutenant O'Connell

Hermann's second in command officer, so where Hermann is O'Connel's not too far away. Also seems like a jerk at first, but later turns out to be a pretty good guy, although a bit gullible.

Colonel Krueger

Veteran Commander of the Helic military, very smart, and very skilled. While he isn't the Zoid pilot he used to be, he's a tactical genius and not to be taken lightly. 

Doesn't wish to see the war become prolonged, but knows how to give the Empire a run for their money in battle.

Major Karl
Lichen Schubaltz

One of the few military officials in the Empire that isn't arrogant or corrupted by power. Although he dislikes the Republic, or at least the war, he is very honorable, and wishes to see peace between them rather than total destruction.

Like I said, he's an honorable guy, and respects his opponents and his own men. Knows his limits in battle, and will reluctantly follow orders from Prozen, even though he dislikes him.

Marcus

Completely the opposite of Schubaltz. he's a total suck-up to Prozen, and will do what he has to to look better than Schubaltz. He is both arrogant and in a way ignorant, and reluctant to listen to Schubaltz's advisories. This ends up being his demise, when his ambitions took him into the Mount Osa base, as it was erupting.

Prozen

The only person more evil then Raven is the guy who raised him. Prozn is the most ambitious character in the Chaotic Century. he has done a lot of scheming to get to where he is now. Arrogant, but very cunning, he cleverly makes it look like the prince was killed, making him emperor, all the while having Raven reek havoc in Republican territory. His ultimate plan is to use the Resurrected Death Saurer to rule the planet.
Lt. Hardin

Lieutenant
Hardin

Prozen's right hand uh woman. Blindly loyal to him and will do anything for him. Not too bright though, as her bad decisions end up getting her killed.

Major Ford

Colonel Krueger's second in command. Nice guy. Although we see him a lot, we never see him really do much.

President Camford

The President of the Helic Republic,  her goal is to end the war between the Empire and the Republic, and for peace.

Smart, and tough, but also understanding, she takes her responsibilities very seriously and will do what it takes to ensure the safety of the Republic. She is the mother of Hermann (that's why he is so well known and respected). Long time friend of Dr. D as well.

Rudolf Gerhard Zeppellin III

He's probably only about 12 or 13, nevertheless he still knows his duties and is very mature when he needs to be. He is kidnapped by Rosso shortly after the Emperor's death, before he can officially take the thrown. This actually ends up saving his life as he was kidnapped that same day Prozen had hired assassins to kill Rudolf. Soon after he meets up with Van's group and after Raven kills (or so it would seem) Rosso and Viola, they decide to help him get back to the Empire before Prozen is made Emperor.

He's a good kid, with no intentions of violence towards the Republic (unlike most Imperial politicians). In fact he was the one who called a cease fire. Starts out like your typical prince, very formal etc. but loosens up over the course of his journey with Van and the gang.

Prime Minister  Homaleff

Sorta like Rudolf's guardian, as well as his political voice of influence. Is very loyal and actually a pretty nice guy. Never trusted Prozen, and didn't really believe Prozen's alibi that Rudolf was killed by the Republicans.

Dr. D

Yeah I know, he looks like a goof and a nutcase, and in many ways he is, be he's also a genius. Once worked for the Republican Army, Dr. D is now retired. He enjoys hanging around with the group, and though he is often a pain, his wisdom and knowledge of Zoids, in addition to the fact he seems to know people in high places, has come in handy for the group on more than one occasion.  

Rosso

Leader of the Desert Alcavaledo Gang, who was once a soldier for the Empire, but decided being a mercenary was better. Him and his gang had be terrorizing a village until van and Irvine came and kicked their butts. Swore he would get revenge and get Zeke. He had also been hired by Marcus to start up the battle at Red River, but when the Imperial forces lost, Marcus blamed it on him and sent the military after him. He allowed himself to be captured, and disbanded the gang. Later Viola and a few other members broke him out of jail, then they hatched a plan to kidnap Rudolf for ransom. After Rosso discovered that Rudolf was actually going to be assassinated, and that he had saved him, he began to take a shine to him. Asked Van to take care of Rudolf while he tried to ward off Raven's new Geno Saurer as long as he could, knowing well he would probably die.

As it turns out he didn't die, and became one of the good guys, piloting the new Storm Sworder along with Viola under the flag of the Republic. Watches out for Van now, rather than trying to kill him, and looks after Rudolf under the identity of Airobolonet (sp?),  and Baron. Originally pilots a Red Horn, then an Iron Kong, the a Storm Sworder.

Viola

Member of the Desert Alcavaledo Gang, most likely the Second in Command. Formerly an officer in the Empire. Skilled pilot, very clever, and can be quite ruthless. However, she has a huge soft pot for Rosso, and was heartbroken when he was captured. Swore revenge on Van. A skilled pilot that piloted a Redler before it was destroyed by Raven. Was thought to have died in the Iron Kong with Rosso, but didn't. She undergoes a change of heart like Rosso, and now pilots a Storm Sworder with him..

She has a younger sister, Rosa, who lives in the Mount Isolina Village where they grew up.

Bull

Young, cocky rookie who happened to find an old Guysack, and decided to use Van as target practice, but ran into trouble when Zeke blasted him through 6 or 7 walls. Member of Rosso's gang. We don't see him after Rosso orders the gang disbanded.
Welda

Welda

Sleazy kinda guy, had an eye for Maria. Pilots a Molga. Member of the Desert Alcavaledo Gang.
Jarro

Jarro

Quiet guy, not much of a talker, has piloted a stolen Pteras, though he usually pilots a Molga. Member of the Desert Alcavaledo Gang.

Nero

Bianco

The other two members of Rosso's gang. They were both with Bull when he went up against Van.  Experienced mercenaries who pilot desert Command Wolves, but both times they fought Van they lost. We don't see them again after the gang is disbanded.

Stinger

Known as "The Fisherman", he's very skilled, cunning, well informed, and deceitful mercenary. Manipulates people to get what he wants. He forcibly joins Metlenick's assassin team. However his plan was not to work with them to kill Rudolf, but to get a hold of Van's Organoid (Zeke, duh). 

A pretty boy on the outside, pure evil on the inside. He pilots a custom red Guysack, and a custom Zaber Fang (Zaber Fang Stinger Special). The Zaber is armed to the teeth and is pretty cool, except that it's pink!

Rosa

Rosa (right) is Viola's younger sister. Lives in the Mount Isolina Village where her sister Viola grew up. has the strange ability to see into people's hearts. It is said by the village Elder that she will loose it with time and leave the village like her sister did. Very sweet girl, innocent too, probably around Van's age. Pilots a Gordos

Maria

Maria (left) is Van's older sister. We see her during the first few episodes of Zoids Chaotic Century, and again during the first episode of Zoids Guardian Force. Very, sweet, though easily startled (especially by Zeke). She's probably about 17.
Priest

Leon

We see him about the same amount of times we see Maria. Used to be a military doctor for the Republic, worked with Van's dad, Major Dan Freiheit. Now is the priest at the Wind Colony.
