Name: Petrus “Peter” Sabbatius Iustianus Age: 17 Gender: Male Appearance: [img]http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/134/2/d/APH__Byzantine_Empire_by_yunichan.jpg[/img] Favourite Gundam series: Mobile Suit Gundam Wing Personality: Pete usually a person that thinks negatively. Stoic, strict and self-righteous he takes the hobby seriously, dismissing those weak as “plebian”. He is however able to swallow his pride when he has to, such as make doing with available resources in Von Braun High. History: An Italo-Greek American who was once part of a well-reputed Gunpla battle team in a different state, notorious for taking Gunpla battles seriously. Peter was brought into the hobby of Gunpla battling after the Plavsky particles were rediscovered at the International Space Station. The reborn craze dragged him into the hobby and anime thanks to re-runs of past Gundam series in cable TV networks. Peter worked hard to join the first team in Gryps High School, the Gryps Titans. The Gryps Titans is one of the strongest team in the United States and was one of the representatives for New York. With requirements harsh to join, they looked down on those below them and the attitude of the team stuck with him. In Peter's first and only year in the team, they went as far as the quarter-finals. After the tournament, Peter's family was forced to move to Von Braun City, where there is no Gunpla team. As a result, he is forced to build one from scratch and take the helm as he begins his second year in high school education. He will have to create a team and find a suitable coach. Gunpla Info: Name: Byzantine Gundam Model number: BZ-13MS Gunpla role: Commander Close-combat Mobile Suit Gunpla model scale: HG 1/144 Gunpla based from if original: OZ13-MS Gundam Epyon, ORB-01 Akatsuki Gundam Armaments: Beam Sword, Epyon Claw, Epyon Shield, Heat Rod, Vulcan Gun Special Features: MA Transformation with Byzantine Flamethrower in Double-headed eagle pieces Description: Byzantine Gundam was created during Petrus’ time in his old team. Coherent with his old team’s motifs, he painted his Epyon into a predominantly red and gold colour and modelled the dragon heads into eagle heads. Compared to the Epyon is it still close-combat oriented but with more emphasis on defence. However, the heavily defended backpack for MA transformation bring a major drawback in speed and agility, forcing further reliance on brute force and defence.
