fictional character in theRobotech Universe. In the originalMacross version, he was calledExsedol Folmo .Exedore is a
Zentradi who serves as Domillan (advisor) to Fleet CommanderBreetai during their search for Robotech Master Zor's missing battlefortress (later known as the SDF-1). Although still a giant by Micronian standards, he is almost a dwarf when compared to even the average Zentradi. Exedore is the keeper of Zentradi law, lore and history as given to him by theRobotech Masters . It is he that reminds Breetai that one of their directives is to stay away from Micronian civilizations for fear of cultural contamination. Nonetheless, because theEarth humans have come in possession of SDF-1, Exedore has the hapless job of trying to outthink them which proves a difficult task considering the Terrans' inexperience in space warfare makes them nearly unpredictable.Because of the constant battles with the Earth humans, numerous Zentradi become enthralled by the culture of the Micronians and their lifestyle. To avoid widespread cultural contamination, Supreme Zentradi commander
Dolza orders the extermination of Breetai and Azonia's fleets. Anticipating this, Exedore has himself micronized and travels to SDF-1 as an emissary and proposes an alliance with Earth. His proposal is well received and Breetai and Azonia's fleets offer well needed assistance in Earth's defense against Dolza's armada.Exedore continued to serve as an advisor to the
Robotech Defense Force in the reconstruction years following the successful defeat of Dolza's armada. He accompaniedRick Hunter ,Lisa Hayes , Dr.Emil Lang ,T.R. Edwards , and the other survivors (including a now micronized Breetai) aboard the SDF-3 in theRobotech Expeditionary Force mission to the Master's homeworld.In the comic book miniseries , during the final phase of the Third Robotech War, Exedore, android Janice, and Dr. Lang were aboard the REF science vessel Deukalion as part of the test firing of the Neutron S Missiles that were planned for use at Reflex Point. Underestimating the power of the weapons, the test firing badly damage the SDF-3 and Deukalion. The wreckage of the Deukalion was recovered with Janice still aboard. Exedore and Doctor Lang are presumed to have been killed as in the animated
Shadow Chronicles , it is stated that there were no other survivors .Notes
The change in physical appearance attributed to the Macross Exsedol never happens to the Robotech Exedore. As that change is associated with the character's appearance in , which is based solely on the original Macross timeline and is explained in
Macross 7 . However, Exedore was slightly redesigned for his appearances in in order to avoid infringing onHaruhiko Mikimoto 's original design.The Zentradi title Domillan (which first appeared in the comics) might translate to Minister of Affairs, which Exedore used in the episode The Messenger.
In Robotech, Exedore was voiced by actor Ted Layman.
