History
Arthur was the first officer of the Minerva and was a trusted friend and colleague of Captain Talia Gladys.[1] At the Battle of Messiah, Gladys told him to look after everyone when the Minerva was damaged and crashed on the Moon. Following the end of the Second Alliance-PLANT War, Arthur was among the members of ZAFT behind Lacus Clyne, standing next to Dearka, Yzak and Shiho.[2]
During the Omake Quarters Drama CD, Arthur hands the remaining personal belongings of Gladys to her son, William. During their time together, they reminisce of the late captain, as well as discuss her actions. The two eventually promise to drink together once William comes of legal age.
