Gjallarhorn

The crest of Gjallarhorn

This is a profile for the Knights of Gjallarhorn from the *Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS*.

## Summary

The grounds for Gjallarhorn's foundation were laid during the Calamity War by Agnika Kaieru, who spearheaded the effort to defend humanity from the Mobile Armors using the Gundam frames for they are a private peacekeeping force charged with safeguarding the Earth Sphere, which were scattered across the galaxy by the end of the conflict. After the Calamity War ended and humanity rebuilt itself into four power blocs, the Seven Stars - the seven families who had destroyed the most Mobile Armors - took the reigns of Gjallarhorn in P.D. 001 and served as the unified military forces for each of the four power blocs which formed on Earth following the end of the war.

300 years after its foundation however, Gjallarhorn became plagued by corruption and infighting within its forces. Many prominent Gjallarhorn officials had begun bribing and trading favors with other influential figures in the Earth Sphere, leading some within Gjallarhorn to call for reforms to the organization. This eventually broke out into open conflict when the Fareed Family head, McGillis Fareed, leaked evidence of Gjallarhorn's corruption and staged a coup in the name of reforming the organization, leading his assorted fleets to battle against the Arianrhod Fleet commanded by Rustal Elion.

## Strengths/Pros

Through enforcing a monopoly on mobile suit and pre-Calamity War technology, Gjallarhorn have been able to remain the dominant fighting force in the Earth Sphere. Their premiere mobile suit is the Graze, whose specs are balanced enough that it can be easily mass produced while also being strong enough to take on teams of Mobile Workers if in the hands of a trained pilot. They're also capable of decimating fleets with weapons such as the Dainsleif. Gjallarhorn possess the most advanced mobile suit technology in the Earth Sphere and well trained pilots to wield them. In addition to their well organized fleets, they also hold a monopoly on relics from before the Calamity War, including the destructive Dainsleif cannon. In addition, Gjallarhorn has the largest number of Gundam frames in their possession including Bael, the first Gundam piloted by their founder, Agnika Kaieru. Outside the military, several leading figures within Gjallarhorn, such as Rustal Elion and Iznario Fareed, have been able to build up vast shadow networks comprised of mercenaries, spies and influential figures within the Earth Sphere and elsewhere.

## Weaknesses/Cons

Gjallarhorn are very disunified due to corruption and infighting, with its leaders often getting caught up in power struggles with one another. Because of this, it is rare to see Gjallarhorn come together as a unified force as most of the conflicts it engages in are between different members of the organization. In addition, while some of Gjallarhorn's commanders are brilliant military minds, such as Rustal Elion and McGillis Fareed, on account of the feudal-like structure of its leadership, many inexperienced commanders have ended up in leadership roles simply on account of their bloodline; with the most notable examples being Carta Issue and Iok Kujan.
