Dozle Zabi is the Grand Admiral of the Zeon Space Attack Force and the third son and overall fourth child of Degwin Sodo Zabi.

## Personality and Character

Tall, burly and scarred, Dozle casts a fearsome appearance at first glance, but he is actually one of the more likeable of the Zabi clan. Gregarious and good natured, Dozle is a good man to his troops. He is also a devoted, loving family man and has a wife Zenna and baby daughter Mineva (It must be noted that he also took a young woman named Marlene Karn as his mistress, half for her beauty and half to help her father Maharaja Karn). Dozle is closest to his younger brother Garma Zabi and actually looks forward to the day when Garma becomes an Admiral in his own right. Dozle dismisses Char Aznable from his division, blaming him (though not suspecting him of foul play) for incompetence in the battle that resulted in Garma's death. Dozle especially despises his sister Kycilia Zabi and this feeling is only increased when she recruits Char into her division.

Dozle is revered by his troops in the Space Attack Force for personally leading them in battle. He and his bodyguard and close friend Shin Matsunaga were known to stage frontline "inspections" in his custom MS-06F Zaku II, which typically became impromptu raids on nearby Earth Federation forces.

Unlike Gihren, Dozle has little concern or knowledge regarding the deeper politics of their war, simply fighting as a means to keep his family and their position safe. Unfortunately, this can also make him either blind or ignorant to the moral implications of his actions if they are ordered by his family. This is most clearly shown by his willingness to comply with Gihren's idea to drop colonies on Earth.

## History

### The Origin

#### U.C. 0068

During a heated argument between him and Sasro Zabi after attending Zeon Zum Deikun's funeral, a car bomb exploded in which engulfed both him and Sasro Zabi. While the blast had completely consumed his brother, Dozle survived albeit heavily scarred, both physically and emotionally.

#### U.C. 0074

Dozle became superintendent of Zeon's Space Defense Military Academy at Guardian Banchi. He was caught in the midst of Char's plan to attack the Earth Federation garrison in Guardian Banchi in what would be known as the *Dawn Rebellion*, where he was distracted by Zenna Mia. When he subdued Zenna, he was shocked to learn that the leader of the rebellion was Garma, leaving him unable to act immediately against his brother. By the time Dozle reached the garrison at dawn, he was greeted by Garma's victorious cadets.

After the incident, he was berated by Degwin for failing prevent an escalation of conflict and was dismissed from his position as a scapegoat for Garma, the rebellion's leader, to escape punishment. Before leaving the Academy, Dozle expels Char and Adrian - now Ryan Sahalin - as the other leading figures of the rebellion, to appease the Federation, although Dozle is aware that they were the true masterminds of the rebellion.

However, following discussion and motivation from Ginias Sahalin, Ryan - instead of being sent to the reserves is assigned to the newly formed 01st Mobile Assault Team as a test pilot.

### Mobile Suit Golden Gundam

#### Operation British

He was responsible for supervising Operation British devised by his older brother Gihren and was tasked with subduing Side 2's colonies before dropping them on Earth. After the mission, Dozle would immediately break down in tears to his wife and daughter, reflecting that he had just killed millions who were just like his daughter.

#### Battle of Loum

Onboard the flagship Musai Admiral Type *Valkyrie*, he acted as the Dozle Fleet Commander. To prevent the advance of the Earth Federation's fleet led by Revil, he laid in waiting in the Loum Sector. While the mobile suit teams took control of Side 5's colonies, Dozle engaged with Rodney's vanguard fleet and pulled them away from the main fleet. Although his rear guard suffered heavy casualties, Rodney's vanguard was led too far to assist Revil, and Dozle's fleet joined the mobile suit teams in attacking Revil and Tianem; successfully taking the commander prisoner.
