Biography:
The elder Heyn brother and the real leader of Fletargent, though on paper he is merely a member.
Born with effectively nothing and raised on less, he learned from a young age to live life to the fullest as multiple close encounters with death in the form of the praetorians made him lucky to even be alive. These young years made him spiteful towards his parents who seemed to have no intent to improve his, or their, situation.
The only one he was really able to connect with was his younger brother, with whom he shared an almost unnatural connection. Though easily chalked up to having to be the one to care for the younger Heyn the connection persisted as they grew up, both capable of seemingly wordlessly communicating with one another and connecting with the feelings of the other.
So with the future looking bleak for the both of them he took matters into his own hands, at the age of 18 he woke his younger brother, who immediately understood what the elder had in mind, and the two vanished into the night with a small collection of their belongings.
Since then the two took the closest they got to military training, though finding a hierarchy below another to not really suit them any position they landed ended up short lived making the two very much drifters from organization to organization.
That changed when they met Seth Epail however, a man they would run into frequently over the coming years. They got to talking and ideas started forming. Seth had resources at his disposal but lacked allies, the Heyns lacked resources but were the manpower and a deal was struck. The most elaborate scheme they had ever hatched, to steal the Gundam 00 Raiser in two years time.
As a sign of good will Seth provided the pair with the Gerbera-Tetra and GP04 Gerbera. With their new MS the two were more than capable of living on a day to day basis. When the day of their heist finally came the pair laid siege to the flying city of Le Haricot only to see the island physically shake. Seth informed them of a minor change in their plans and their new accomplice, Balthazar du Nuage.
The four teaming up on a permanent basis was his idea and the others approved. Though he does sometimes wonder why they added Balthazar to their group when he is reminded that unlike him the man actually has people skills those thoughts tend to fade.

Biography:
The younger Heyn brother, functioning as his brother’s right hand man.
Unlike his loud and rude brother, Niels is more of the calm and collected sort. Seeming more of a hanger on than an actor within the group but using the innate connection with his elder brother to listen and isolate important information.
The connection with his brother he has was one he has had since birth, one that allowed his otherwise socially inept elder to convey the feelings he has to him with absolute clarity. It helped him mature rapidly as he effectively saw the world from a perspective beyond his age making him wise beyond his years.
However he saw the world through his brother’s eyes, eyes that perceived the glass as being half empty. This in turn makes him innately pessimistic, expecting the worst of people. His upbringing and subsequent running from home alongside his brother did not help in this fact. Only fueling his mistrust.
Instead he turned his focus to machines, assembling, disassembling, reassembling. Getting to understand the ins and outs of the machines around him. In turn making him the group’s primary mechanic and the one in charge of maintenance.
This interest alongside years of work and a natural aptitude has allowed him to understand how a MS works quickly. Allowing him to switch suits on the fly should need be.
Although he heavily prefers the unit given to him by Seth, something he has had apart and back together more times than anyone cares to count.
Though despite being the chief engineer he has yet to be allowed to touch the team’s staple unit. Something which makes him wary of Balthazar and Seth.

Biography:
First son of Caspar du Nuage the ‘King of the Sky’ and the ‘owner’ of the floating city of Le Haricot. Unlike many Balthazar’s life immediately after the war was one of luxury, the icon of the family he was born in united a great many individuals with nowhere to go under the banner of his father in turn creating the city he called home.
The 00 Gundam, one of the saviours of the human race fueled by not merely one but two of the oh so powerful GN Drives stood at the heart of the ever growing sky city serving as a beacon of hope and a reminder to those that would oppose them. One that also kept rival factions partly in check due to its importance.
All in all his youth was amazing, he got everything he wanted as soon as he got the words out of his mouth. Everyone was his friend as soon as they heard his name, personal servants attended his every need and the massive mansion he had as a home always had something new to see. His father doted over him, telling him stories of the war against the AI and the King of the Sky wouldn’t be found without his prince at home.
As he grew into adulthood he eventually got his own personal servant, Seth Epail and life went on as usual for a while but one question from the butler stuck with him. “I am curious, what is your favorite part of Le Haricot?” A question to which he had no real answer.
For he had never really left the central district of the city, the immediate area around their home had more than provided him with all he needed and leaving it had never really been on his mind prior to this.
So he opted to see it with his own eyes and what he saw he didn’t like. The further outside the central district one went, away from the 00 Gundam, the more slum like it became. All the glamour and grandeur of his home was traded for shabby houses barely held together and a group of people who spit at his name rather than praise it.
Then and there, amidst the decrepit housing Seth asked once more what his favorite part of the city was, now that he’d seen it all and while his lack of answer was the same, the reason was different.
All this time he had lived on the suffering of others, only a stone throw away from it. The entire trip back he was quiet, the week after he was quieter than usual. Not telling anyone about what he’d seen or the thoughts that plagued him. Though he couldn’t look at the luxury of his life in the same way ever again.
So Seth asked him a new question “Do you want the 00 Raiser to be the shining beacon of this city?”, the answer was no. He had always seen it as a light in the dark, his father had told him as much. But now its shadow encompassed the entire city. Seth then asked if he wanted to make the 00 Raiser the beacon it was supposed to be.
And Balthazar said yes.
No one suspected the heir and his butler would turn an inspection of the 00 Raiser into a grand theft, Le Haricot physically shook as two of the GN Drives keeping it afloat were removed making their escape that much easier.
The two years since Balthazar has been trying to uphold the image of the 00 Raiser alongside learning how to use it. A task that has proven difficult to say the least.

Biography:
Balthazar du Nuage's personal butler, even after his decision to leave Le Haricot where he decided to work pro bono.
The first notable mention of the name Seth Epail can be found 40 years back as that of a deceased soldier one who seemed to be of some note prior to his death by Praetorians but due to the loss of records and the immediate AI threat has been lost to the ages. Though his death had been confirmed.
After this the next mention of Seth came thirty five years later, a mere five years ago. A lone MS Hunter by the name making a name for himself in the early days of the profession before vanishing into obscurity once more as others established themselves. Since then he has sparingly appeared for around a year, before landing a job as a butler for the du Nuage family.
For what it is worth, at the very least this is the same Seth as the MS hunter, that has been confirmed by the Heyn brothers with whom he had several meetings over the years. Though his nature as a Cyborg was not unknown to them the fact that in all that time he has not seemed to age one day going as far as his hair remaining the same length and style being almost a dip into the uncanny for them at first but the pair getting used to it as they met regularly.
During his meetings with the Heyn brothers Seth noted that while they were standoffish and wary, the pair was trustworthy. So he entrusted them with some of his resources and the broad strokes of his plan, to take the prize of Le Haricot, the 00 Raiser from the inside.
For this purpose he enlisted and became assigned as Balthazar's personal butler on his twenty first birthday.
Here as he prepared two issues arose. Getting access to the 00 Raiser proved more difficult than anticipated as well as beginning to actually care about Balthazar. An issue he turned to his benefit as he showed the slums of the sky city to the heir, shaking his confidence in his surroundings and afterwards offering an out for the young man to accept and cleanse his hands of the issues of the city.
Simultaneously this allowed Seth to acquire access to the 00 Raiser and keep the du Nuage heir under his care. Turning what would've been a simple 'random' inspection of the MS into the greatest heist ever performed against the sky pirate city.
At Youri's suggestion of a more permanent team up he eagerly nodded, using some more of his connections to give the group its flag ship.

History:
A machine fueled by not one but two of the famous GN Drives in a merging of the 00 Gundam and the 0 Raiser. During the Insurrection war it went through many iterations and forms before ending up as the personal suit of Caspar du Nuage during the last stretch of the war.
It was mainly used to secure air dominance against the Preatorians, pushing them either into the depths below or into space, whichever was preferable at the time. Rumor says that during the entire 25 years of service the unit saw only sixteen days without combat. Seemingly capable to keep going on for as long as the pilot was capable to. Placing it firmly among one of humanity's saviors.
Since the end of the war the unit was used by Caspar as a symbol to rally to, legitimizing the city of Le Haricot in the eyes of all, the idea being that no one would oppose the unit directly responsible for the fact they yet lived. In the meanwhile using the 00 Gundam's GN Drives as fuel for the city itself helping to keep it afloat.
Though to some the unit became a sign of oppression and extortion, their once savior now held over their heads as any hopes of savings were taken from them. Its current pilot, Balthazar, seeks to change it back to what it was supposed to be. A shining beacon for humanity's salvation and a weapon against those that threaten civilization.

Description:

History:
The GP04 Gundam "Gerbera" was created for the sole purpose of Anti-Mobile Suit combat, its Sturm Boosters allowing it to engage and disengage quickly making it an effective assassin, capable of taking out a select set of MS and exit combat. Rotating between its weaponry based on distance, a long range rifle, a mid range custom rifle and for close range the sabers.
The unit was considered for refurbishing, but due to the Praetorian command structure it would be under equipped for disposing of anything more than commander types and their cohorts, the important targets of the massive Mobile Armor scale Praetorians required stronger MS and more of them.
As such the Oldsmobile project never reconstructed the GP04.

History:
A GP04 Gundam "Gerbera" frame modified for specific assault use, exchanging its rifles and shield for Machine Cannons and a Beam Machine Gun, the lessened load in turn making it noticeably more agile than its original counterpart at the cost of Long Range use and defensive options.
Much like the GP04 on which it is based, the Gerbera Tetra uses its Sturm Booster to pick out a select list of targets and hunt them down before leaving combat. It specializes in speed and agility, though lacking the firepower to take down the more defensive targets.
It too was not refurbished by Io's forges and thus far the creator of it and the GP04 remains a mystery.

History:
Fletargent's ship they use as a base both during travel and when docked. It was modified to be allowed to tap into the 00 Raiser's GN Drives as fuel source outside of combat. The ship itself was built for speed and minimizing target able surface. With the entire front of the ship being dedicated to the units, the MS Hangar being located in the front with living quarters pushed to the back.
It prefers to hang in the background, facing directly at the fighting to enable firing its primary weaponry as supportive fire while staying a safe distance away.

A prototype Human exterior Cyborg created out of the remains of Seth Epail, his creation took the better part of thirty years. Going as far as to recreate his original appearance in the metal shell that is now his body, hairstyle and all.
This was done in an effort to make him appeal more to humans, standing as an in between of the almost inhuman Cyborgs and regular humans.
His reconstruction was done by the organization known as the "United Jupiter Front", remains of those in charge before the insurrection. Be it themselves, their children or otherwise.
They are unified in their goal however, they want to unite Jupiter and its moons as a single government entity and though they have to do so by cash injections into local governments rather than simple upfront politics for now. They continue their self given task.
Seth ranking among their number as a field agent, giving him access to connections and funds that he only calls upon when deemed absolutely necessary. Sent out with the task to collect GN Drives.

It was mainly used to secure air dominance against the Preatorians, pushing them either into the depths below or into space, whichever was preferable at the time. Rumor says that during the entire 25 years of service the unit saw only sixteen days without combat. Seemingly capable to keep going on for as long as the pilot was capable to. Placing it firmly among one of humanity's saviors.
Since the end of the war the unit was used by Caspar as a symbol to rally to, legitimizing the city of Le Haricot in the eyes of all, the idea being that no one would oppose the unit directly responsible for the fact they yet lived. In the meanwhile using the 00 Gundam's GN Drives as fuel for the city itself helping to keep it afloat.
Though to some the unit became a sign of oppression and extortion, their once savior now held over their heads as any hopes of savings were taken from them. Its current pilot, Balthazar, seeks to change it back to what it was supposed to be. A shining beacon for humanity's salvation and a weapon against those that threaten civilization.

History:
The GP04 Gundam "Gerbera" was created for the sole purpose of Anti-Mobile Suit combat, its Sturm Boosters allowing it to engage and disengage quickly making it an effective assassin, capable of taking out a select set of MS and exit combat. Rotating between its weaponry based on distance, a long range rifle, a mid range custom rifle and for close range the sabers.
The unit was considered for refurbishing, but due to the Praetorian command structure it would be under equipped for disposing of anything more than commander types and their cohorts, the important targets of the massive Mobile Armor scale Praetorians required stronger MS and more of them.
As such the Oldsmobile project never reconstructed the GP04.

History:
A GP04 Gundam "Gerbera" frame modified for specific assault use, exchanging its rifles and shield for Machine Cannons and a Beam Machine Gun, the lessened load in turn making it noticeably more agile than its original counterpart at the cost of Long Range use and defensive options.
Much like the GP04 on which it is based, the Gerbera Tetra uses its Sturm Booster to pick out a select list of targets and hunt them down before leaving combat. It specializes in speed and agility, though lacking the firepower to take down the more defensive targets.
It too was not refurbished by Io's forges and thus far the creator of it and the GP04 remains a mystery.

Description:
History:
Fletargent's ship they use as a base both during travel and when docked. It was modified to be allowed to tap into the 00 Raiser's GN Drives as fuel source outside of combat. The ship itself was built for speed and minimizing target able surface. With the entire front of the ship being dedicated to the units, the MS Hangar being located in the front with living quarters pushed to the back.
It prefers to hang in the background, facing directly at the fighting to enable firing its primary weaponry as supportive fire while staying a safe distance away.
