**Ulgar Zweig** (ウルガー・ツヴァイク, *Urugā Tsuvaiku*?) is a member of Group B-5. He treasures his beanie and is good with things like calculating trajectory.

## Appearance

Ulgar has a light complexion which contrasts with his black hair, which covers his right eye. He also wears a grey beanie. His crust suit, made by Falken, is mostly black and grey with red accents, making it a rarity among crust suits, which usually avoid the use of dark colors.

## Personality

Ulgar is generally withdrawn and not very outgoing, though he becomes angry when he feels cornered. When the journey begins, he generally adheres to a philosophy of pulling one's own weight and refuses to help the others with chores or activities he deems unimportant to himself, though he slowly abandons this practice as the trip nears its end.

## Plot

In 2163 A.D., Ulgar gathers at Mousanish Spaceport along with the other members of Group B-5 except for Aries Spring and Kanata Hoshijima, the former who joins them shortly afterwards and introduces herself. The teacher then introduces Quitterie Raffaelli and her younger sister Funicia Raffaelli who will be joining them as part of a unique task to take care of and teach a younger child. Once Kanata has finally arrived, the group then boards a spaceship to begin their four hour journey to Planet McPa. Upon landing, they exit the spaceship and walk around for a bit when Luca Esposito points out a strange globe that's been approaching them. They try to run away from it, but the strange globe is able to absorb and send them all into outer space.

They are able to find a nearby spaceship and upon collecting their luggage, are able to board it safely. When Kanata asks if everyone is here and if they're hurt, Zack Walker says that there is one person missing. Ulgar looks outside and sees that Aries is still floating outside, with her thrusters and communications unable to work. Kanata volunteers to go out and rescue Aries while the rest of the group watch over the cord tying him to the ship. He is able to successfully grab Aries and bring her back to the ship where she thanks him repeatedly. As the group wonders how they can get out of their situation, Zack is working on the ship's coordinates and finds some disturbing information. He says that they are no longer above Planet McPa and that they are 5,012 light-years away from their original location. The group could do nothing but react with shock at this news.

## Skills

**Marksmanship** - Ulgar is the only member of the group to have any sort of skill with projectile weapons, a skill he honed by practicing with pellet guns when he was younger. His proficiency stretches beyond firearms to bows as well, as shown when the ship nearly crashed on Shummoor; his use of a glue gun to immobilize a flying alien animal by shooting it out of midair allowed the gravity generator to come back online and saved the crew. Later, on Arispade, he hunted the native fauna with a bow and arrows Luca made for him.

## Relationship

### Gert Zweig

Ulgar doesn't have a good relationship with his original, that is his father, having never been loved by him. When his brother died, Gert even told him he wished Ulgar had died instead.

### Finn Zweig

Ulgar looked up to his older brother quite a bit. Finn was the only person that Ulgar felt cared about him. After his death, Ulgar swore revenge on the man he believed was responsible for his death. He regarded Finn as his older brother even after learning of the truth of his identity.

### Marco Esposito

While they've never met, Ulgar has a deep hatred for Marco and seeks revenge on him for killing his brother.

### Luca Esposito

They are very well acquainted, to the point where Ulgar spends the night at Luca's house, as evident in the final episode. Ulgar is shown to get quite flustered around Luca, but that may just be due to the guilt he harbors after attempting to kill Luca and making him strip in episode six. After the timeskip Ulgar is also seen wearing the ornament that Luca made - on his beanie.

### Kanata Hoshijima

Ulgar pushed Kanata away earlier on and didn't really care that he was the captain, and Kanata didn't seem to trust him much at first. However, after the events on Arispade, Ulgar offers his gun to Kanata, only for Kanata to tell him to keep it, and they seem to have a mutual respect for each other from there on out.

### Funicia Raffaeli

Ulgar is a lot nicer to Funicia than he is the rest of the group, likely because she's just a kid. He even lets her wear his beanie at one point, and years later, he wears her hairpin on his hat.

### Yun-hua Lu

Ulgar doesn't seem to think highly of Yun-hua at first and would call her names sometimes. However, after she ran away, he did seem concerned and seems to realize he had contributed to her decision. He doesn't call her names anymore after this, and while they may not interact that much, they definitely come to see each other as friends.

## Trivia

* Ulgar is a German name meaning "wolf spear". His surname, Zweig, means "branch" in German.
