Mobile Suit Gundam
SEED Destiny
- Destiny Gundam
-
One of the Second Stage Series machines developed at the request of PLANT Supreme Council Chairman Gilbert Dullindal.
Boasting supremely high performance courtesy of the hybrid-nuclear Hyper Deuterion System, it possesses even higher performance than other Second Stage Series suits.
It's equipped with a variety of armaments originally belonging to the Impulse Gundam's Silhouette System, giving it all-around performance to handle any situation.
In addition to powerful weaponry like its Palma Fiocina Palm Beam Cannon and High-Energy Long-Range Beam Cannon, the Destiny can also deploy the wings on its back for high-mobility atmospheric flight.
The Destiny also excels defensively, with an expandable Anti-Beam Shield, and a Solidus Fulgor beam shield generator.
- Shinn Asuka
-
A pilot for ZAFT's new warship, the Minerva.
He used to be a civilian living in the neutral nation of Orb, but his whole family got caught up in the fighting when the Earth Alliance invaded Orb. He then moved to PLANT, where he attended ZAFT military academy and graduated with outstanding grades.
He was selected to pilot the Impulse Gundam and assigned to the newly- built warship Minerva.
He has a special hatred for Orb for professing to be neutral while allowing the Alliance to come right in and invade, and for failing to protect his family.
He also loathes war itself, and he is easily swayed by emotions in battle.
Armory One, the military arsenal where the Minerva was stationed, came under attack by an Alliance special forces unit called the Phantom Pain.
This led to Shinn getting a baptism of fire for his first real combat.
As part of the Minerva crew, he kept going through battle after harsh battle, which helped him to improve and grow into an expert fighter.
