Ville Klaassen (ヴィル・クラーセン?) is a fictional character from the manga Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS Gekko.
Personality & Characteristics[]
Ville Klaassen describes himself as a "timid man at heart", and believes in "weeding early and often", meaning that he believes in removing anything that may pose a potential threat to him as soon as possible, even if others have disagree with his methods. His role in the falls of both Warren and Nadira Houses from Gjallarhorn's good graces cemented his ruthless reputation.
As the Head Auditor of Gjallarhorn's Lunar Inspection Bureau, he wields a tremendous amount of power, especially after Iznario Fareed's ouster from the Seven Stars put more of a focus on Gjallarhorn cleaning up internal corruption. This grants him oversight of many aspects of Gjallarhorn, including is internal security bureau Ollerus.
His sphere of influence extends even into the corporate elements of the Earth Sphere, including the head of Tanto Tempo's Vespa Bank, Rosario Leone, who helped cover up Ville's involvement in House Warren's downfall, and lending him parts of the Gundam Astaroth Origin for his Gundam Vual, just to stir the ire of Volco Warren.
History[]
Ville Klaassen earliest known act of importance was framing House Warren for embezzling Gjallarhorn's funds while working for them, leading to the Warren Family being stripped of their titles, status, and the Gundam Astaroth. This allowed him to claim jurisdiction over the Avalanche colonies, as well as oversight over Tanto Tempo. During this period, he would gift Rosario Leone armor parts of the Gundam Astaroth to fit out his Gundam Vual in exchange for aiding in covering up Ville's involvement in House Warren's fall from grace.
After the assassination of Ted Morugaton and the failure to make his daughter, Liarina, endorse Rosario as the next head of Tanto Tempo, Ville Klaassen visited the head of Vespa Bank and discussed handling the situation against Gianmarco, stating that he won't be able to help Rosario against the Arianrhod Fleet if the issue extends beyond the Moon. Ville encourages Rosario to let Volco Warren know he was the one who framed his family for the embezzling.
After this, he would aid in Sylt Zalmfort framing House Nadira for the assassination of his own daughter and corruption with the African Union.
With Liarina now the head of Tanto Tempo and Rosario dead, Ville has grown more closely to Sylt Zalmfort. With the downfall of Iznario Fareed over the Arbrau elections incident, he was made the Head Audiot of the Lunar Inspection Bureau, giving him oversight over various organizations operating in the area, including Ollerus, Gjallarhorn's internal security bureau.
During the investigation into the death of Mina Zalmfort, Ville would confront Jizil Jizin, and would discuss the investigation. Afterwards, Ville has Jizil assassinated for his efforts, and framed Tanto Tempo for the murder.
