Argi Mirage

Argi Mirage (アルジ・ミラージ?) is a fictional character the manga Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS Gekko.

Personality & Character
Argi is stated to have difficulty around women. He is driven to stay alive and find the Gundam that killed his family. He is not much of a thinker as he typically does what he's told but his compassion and loyalty for his comrades outgrows his past anger. Argi is also naive and often is oblivious to a problem unless it is made obvious to him by someone else. He feels he has a life debt to pay and is willing to do anything to pay that debt. He has said he needs the Astaroth in order to have his revenge. He is quick to respond as well and has sharp instincts.

Skills & Abilities
Through his right prosthetic arm, he can form a neural link with the Astaroth, although this does not give him maneuverability comparable to something like the Alaya-Vijnana System.

History
Some time before P.D. 323, Argi was involved in an attack by a Gundam Frame on a civilian craft. As a result his entire family was killed and he was the only survivor of the attack, although losing his right arm. Eventually becoming a mercenary for hire, he accepted a contract killing job (stated as his first) to kill Daddy Ted. When a mobile suit attacks Daddy Ted's home, he instead opts to defend Daddy Ted, and becomes the pilot of the ASW-G-29 Gundam Astaroth to fight off the mobile suit. The pilot however commits suicide soon after his defeat.

He later becomes allies with Volco Warren as the pilot of the Astaroth, as he believes the only way to exact revenge on the Gundam who killed his family is with the Astaroth. He later becomes the bodyguard of Daddy Ted's daughter, Liarina Morugaton, in order to continue piloting the Astaroth.
