She seems to have some kind of business with the Republican government, but the whole story behind her group Ikaruga and the purpose of its activities have yet to be revealed.

Known as the Blazing Whirlwind, he is Feri Al-Fayed’s older brother, said to be one of the strongest jaegers in the Khurga Warriors Clan.

He currently serves as the chief security officer of Marduk Total Security Company, and two years ago taught Van tactics via the Stun Caliber and Zero Strike.

Grendel (voiced by Daisuke Ono)
The fairy-type support artificial intelligence Mare manifests in the real world and transforms Van Arkride by covering his entire body in shard armor.
By transforming into Grendel with Mare’s support, Van’s physical abilities significantly increase, and he exhibits tremendous fighting strength beyond human comprehension.
Grendel-Zolga, the reddish-black creature believed to be the culprit who slaughtered the Central Intelligence Department’s Gamma Squad, also wears shard armor, but it is unclear whether this is a “shackle” or not such as Van’s Grendel.
While on the case, Van and Mare confront Grendel-Zolga and its support artificial intelligence Altera on countless occasions.
