Zoltan Akkanen (ゾルタン・アッカネン Zorutan Akkanen?) is one of the main antagonists of Mobile Suit Gundam Narrative. He is the pilot of the MSN-06S-2 Sinanju Stein.
Personality & Character[]
A Lieutenant in the Republic of Zeon army, he aims to capture the Phenex and is the pilot of the MSN-06S-2 Sinanju Stein. Like Full Frontal, the leader of the Neo Zeon remnants, the Sleeves, he is a Cyber Newtype created as a second coming of Char Aznable. However, he is deemed to be a failure - a fact he is extremely insecure about. Because of this, he has an unrelenting need to prove himself to be worthy of the title.
Zoltan has shown to be erratic, sadistic, and completely insane. He has shown little regard for the live of others, as he did not hesitate to fire his beam weapons in a space colony. His psychotic nature shows when he knowingly killed civilians with said beam weapons, while shooting at Jona Basta. He went as far as to use his senseless slaughter and destruction in an attempt to goad Jona into fighting back.
His destructive and insane behavior seems to stem heavily from his insecurities. Minuscule implications of this fact are enough to sent Zoltan into fits of rage. Examples of this behavior is during his first conflict with Jona, he noticed Jona is a Cyber Newtype who isn't using his Narrative Gundam to its fullest extent. Jona was unaware of his Gundam's full potential, but Zoltan imagines that his enemies purposefully sent a weak enemy against him, due to being a failed second coming of Char. An example of his insanity would be when he successfully used his Newtype powers to control the NZ-999 II Neo Zeong's psychoframe to grab, throw, crush, and explode a large Helium-3 tank. The massive destruction resulted in Zoltan laughing ecstatically.
Skills & Abilities[]
As a Cyber Newtype, he has no problem controlling Psycommu armament as shown when he used the II Neo Zeong's Psycho Shard to devastating effect. His red eye is a prosthesis with a built-in psycho sensor.
History[]
Relationships[]
Ellic has often expressed her dislike of Zoltan behind his back. She is intolerant of his unstable nature and completely destructive tendencies. When reporting to Monaghan Bakharo on their failure to capture the Phenex at Metis, she put most of the blame on Zoltan. After she was ordered to abandon the Gulltoppr and the crew, Zoltan overheard them and was displeased. When she noticed that Zoltan can't be fooled, she immediately attempted to kill him. Zoltan outdrew her and killed her first without a hint of remorse.
