Personality & Character[]
Orcus is a shrewd businessman, making deals with the Tekkadan as as well as Todo Mirconen only to betray them in order to improve his relationship with Coral.
History[]
He was recommended by Todo to Orga to help Tekkadan reach Earth. But soon after making the arrangements with Orga, he proceeded to contact Major Coral Conrad of Gjallarhorn regarding Tekkadan's plans with the aim of gaining more favor. Though Orcus insisted that he could capture Kudelia Aina Bernstein by himself, Coral argued that they were dealing with a sensitive political matter and he couldn't leave things to chance.
Orcus then commanded his own personal assault ship, which met up with Tekkadan's shuttle earlier than expected and from behind it, three Gjallarhorn EB-06 Grazes surrounded the shuttle while a small Gjallarhorn flotilla backed them up. Orcus was then hailed by Todo, who was kept out of the loop, and he ordered his men to convey his thanks for Todo's "cooperation", exposing his duplicity to Tekkadan.
However, Tekkadan unexpectedly unleashed the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos, which began drawing the attention of the Gjallarhorn mobile suits. With Coral preoccupied, Orcus took his opportunity to try and shoot Kudelia's shuttle down. But just as he opened fire, unexpectedly, the Isaribi opened fire on his ship from high on his starboard and descended to rescue the shuttle.
Orcus, along with the Gjallarhorn Halfbeak-class ship, began a pursuit of the Isaribi, having the advantage of being in low orbit, which prevented their quarry from outrunning them and that they couldn't brake to turn without making themselves an easy target. The Isaribi soon laid a course for the mining asteroid, causing Orcus to assume that Tekkadan believed they could use it as a shield and ordered his men to continue opening fire. Suddenly, the Isaribi launched one of his anchors towards the asteroid before a mobile worker piloted by Eugene Sevenstark drove along the tether to ram a set of explosives in the hole. The Isaribi then circled the asteroid and, after Eugene caused two explosions to dislodge the anchor, made a collision course towards Orcus' ship, ruining one of his guns before the enemy ship opened fire and released a flash bomb that blinded both allied ships, allowing Tekkadan to flee the area.
