This is a list of fictional characters from the Japanese science fiction anime OVA metaseries Gall Force.
Eternal Story characters
The main character of the First Story Arc and next in line after Eluza in the chain of command. Rabby is loyal to her shipmates above all other things. It is that loyalty which causes her to spare the first example of the "third race", due to it looking so much like Patty. When she finally understands the way her shipmates have been used and discarded, her disillusionment causes her to make a choice which determines the fate of all intelligent life. Her Rhea/Earth Chapter reincarnation, Sandy Newman, is still the central character, driven by a desire to make up for her father's role in creating the MME.
The eldest and highest ranking of the major characters. With the captain of the Star Leaf crew in a meeting on the fleet flagship, Eluza is the next highest officer and second in command when the Paranoids attack the fleet. Her will is very strong and it is her inflexibility which leads to her final fate. Her Rhea/Earth Chapter reincarnation, Fortin, demonstrates a similar difficulty in letting go of old enmities, even when the alternative is death.
Rabby's best friend. A follower, not a leader, Patty's distinguishing characteristic is her tendency to go into trance-like moments of distraction. This trait may be related to why she does not reject the experiment the way Eluza did. Her Rhea/Earth Chapter reincarnation is Melody, who expresses several foreshadowed elements in Eternal Story.
The youngest of the shipmates, she is the least capable and hardened of the soldiers and fills in the anime mascot cliché role. Rabby acts as a big sister to her, scolding and shielding her, and she dislikes Lufy. Like Rabby and Patty, she plays a direct, pivotal role for all intelligent life in the saga.
Technically not even a member of the Star Leaf crew, Lufy crash-lands in a crippled Branch-class fighter just before the Star Leaf jumps into hyperspace. She is a cocky ace fighter pilot who pretends not to take dangerous situations seriously and does not follow orders very well, though she is loyal to her friends no matter what the cost to herself. Lufy has a less than favorable reputation for being the sole survivor from her flight groups, a fact which troubles her deeply. She becomes one of the main character in Destruction and Stardust War. Her Rhea/Earth Chapter reincarnation Score has the same reckless daring, although she seems somewhat calmer in this incarnation.
The shy and easily frightened computer expert of the crew, Pony gets along much better with artificial intelligences than she does with any of the organic crew members. Her closest friends are Catty and the ship's computer, OX-11. She plays a direct role in Rabby's decisions later on in the story.
A soft-seeming and idealistic crew member, she is really a Gynoid (android) copy created by the Solnoid intelligence chief, Catty Nebulart, to monitor the development of the "third race", i.e. the Terrans. She is determined to see the plan come to fruition, and is the only character to survive from the Solnoid-Paranoid War into the human age. The Boy
Originally an embryonic weapon used by the Paranoids, it eventually inseminated inside Patty, which was the first phase before she was completely merged with the Paranoid factor and become a new lifeform. However, Rabby and Toil-2 extract this embryo out of her through Trans-Mat. The embryo quickly grows in front of Rumy and Toil-2, becoming into what is essentially a full-grown baby. Although Rabby initially wants to kill him due to her belief of him being a sort of Paranoid weapon, she relents after Patty's begging as well as the Boy's saving of Rumy from falling back into the lake. Afterwards, the Paranoid and Solnoid fleets arrive, attempting to recover both Patty and the Boy due to the Species Unification Plan. After Rabby learns the truth about the Plan, she and Patty decide to make a suicide run against the remaining Solnoid forces, while they send Rumy and the Boy to Terra. He is also Patty's son and in essence the sole male Solnoid. Except for certain parts of the anatomy, he looks just like his mother. Dorn
Also spelled as Dohn and Dawn, he is the commander of the Paranoid Axis forces who are trying to implement the Species Unification Project (or Project Exodermus). He seems to be fully resolute in his duty.
Destruction and Stardust War characters
Shildy is the resolute and composed leader of the new Gall Force crew Lufy is taken into following her reanimation, and the main character in Destruction and Stardust War. Unlike Star Leaf's crew, Shildy and her friends are familiar with the plan for the creation of a third race, meaning that Catty must have at some time confided in her. She also shares the dream of achieving peace for both races.
Shildy's best friend and confidant. She's particularly loyal to Shildy, going so far as to threaten others of death if they ever get in her way, and also seems to admire and hold Shildy in particularly high esteem.
The new Gall Force crew's junior mascot, much the same way as Rumy for the previous crew. Amy is very shy and insecure, though she can handle herself in a fight if necessary.
The Gynoid (android) Catty's biological template (though more advanced in age) and chief of Solnoid Intelligence, she is also the instigator of the plan to genetically unite the Solnoids and Paranoids. She is a pacifist at heart and even in the midst of war seeks a way to give both races yet a chance to live in harmony with each other.
Supreme leader of the Solnoids, she leads the war against the Paranoids. She's obsessed with victory and will stop at nothing to wipe out all of the Paranoids. Her flagship is the Traverser, and she manifests herself in a sort of holographic display pod.
Also spelled as Bohn, he's the supreme leader of the Paranoids and leads the war against the Solnoids. Being Journey's opposite equivalent, he's not as maddened as her, although he too seeks total victory at all costs.
Rhea/ Earth Chapter characters
The main character of Rhea and Earth Chapter, and reincarnation of Rabby. Being the daughter of Dr. Grey Newman, the discoverer of the ruins on the Moon, she feels responsible for the destruction caused by the MME. A gentle woman by nature, the struggle for survival has hardened her. Rather than give in to cynicism, Sandy chooses to stick with her idealism. She fights with firm resolve and by the beginning of the story has risen to the level of a minor officer in the resistance movement. It is her destiny to show the leader of the MME the truth. Dr. Grey Newman
Father of Sandy and the creator of the MME. He led the research team that discovered the alien technology (the wrecked Solnoid base ship from Eternal Story) on the moon. After the discovery, he urged the nations to only use the new-found technology for peaceful purposes, but in the rush to war he was ignored.
Sandy's best friend, and the reincarnation of Patty. A gentle soul despite her soldier status, she became embittered of the MME after her love interest, Bohdy, was killed by them in the pilot episode.
Eluza's reincarnation is a sergeant in the Eastern Forces resistance movement who has become hardened during the war. After losing her family in the human fighting before the rise of the MME, she became cynical and isolated, unable to trust (or emotionally tie herself to) other people. However, after meeting Sandy she soon relaxes and learns to open herself again.
A vagabond and the reincarnation of Rumy's younger version who searched the remains of the destroyed cities for food. After encountering Sandy's band, she joined the resistance fighters. Mitty is young, but full of optimism and tough enough to keep up with everyone and survive. Her knowledge of the sewer systems in some areas are very essential to Sandy's group. Score
An informal, laid-back person but a capable Eastern Forces soldier, and Lufy's reincarnation. After meeting Sandy, she perceives her as a natural leader and decides to fight alongside her group. Despite being sarcastic at times, she fights alongside Sandy right to the very end and never lets her friends down.
Pony's reincarnation is the leader of a pacifistic sect named Geo Chris dedicated to replant the Earth following the conclusion of the war. To this purpose, Geo Chris has nurtured a tree within an abandoned missile silo base, collecting its seeds for their self-appointed task. When the MME destroy the tree, Sally joins Sandy's band of resistance fighters in the final battle as a medic.
Lamidia, the reincarnation of Rumy's older version, is a major in the Mars U.N. armed forces and the daughter of the garrison commander. She urges the general to send reinforcements to assist the resistance fighters on Earth. When she learns of the military conspiracy to destroy the Earth, she takes her subordinates and hijacks a spaceship to stand in the Hecatoncheir’s way. In the final battle, she succeeds in persuading the leaders on Mars to hold back their orbital bombardment and allow the resistance the time they need to remove the MME.
Varji is the captain of the Hecatoncheir, a massive plasma weapon-equipped spaceship sent from Mars, and Shildy's reincarnation. Unlike Shildy, she is firm to her duties to the point where she is willing to sacrifice the resistance fighters on Australia, although like Shildy, she firmly believes this to be necessary for humanity's survival. When the Hecatoncheir is destroyed, she lands on Earth and joins the resistance with her crew, although with reservations. Ann
Speas reincarnation, and an officer and pilot under Varji's command on the Hecatoncheir.
A tank unit commander who is Sandy's love interest and most steadfast ally in the Western Forces.
A cyborg, and one of the few survivors of his kind following the rise of the MME. Originally a sergeant and the commanding/supervising officer of a Western MME unit in the war between East and West. G.O.R.N.
Arguably the "reincarnation" of Born, he truly resembles his Paranoid predecessors, and is bent on the complete annihilation of all mankind in the Solar System. He's the overmind leader of the MME. However, his obsessive hatred against humanity doesn't stop him from making wise decisions for the sake of the MME's survival.
