Biography

Gates is one of the Cyber-Newtypes produced at Augusta Newtype Lab. Compared to the other Cyber Newtypes, such as Four Murasame and Rosamia Badam, he is less powerful, but he has stable emotions. He functions as a mentor to Rosamia, and often supervises her when she enters combat.

When Rosamia encounters Kamille Bidan, she starts to believe that Kamille is her long-lost brother. This causes her to become very unstable, and finds herself slowly turning into a lunatic. Gates stumbles upon Kamille later and fights him.

When Rosamia returns from this encounter, she's close to emotional collapse. In order to keep her from disobeying orders, Gates had to pose as her brother. The two of them are both deeply linked, and they continue to fight together.

However, during a battle on the asteroid "Axis", he is unable to prevent Rosamia from being killed by Kamille. Gates is able to sense this event, and it has a terrible effect upon him. This event causes his mind to collapse, and he is no longer able to move. He no longer appears again, and his overall fate is unknown.

In the PSP strategy game Mobile Suit Gundam: Giren's Ambition & The Threat of Axis, Gates can be recruited into the Axis ranks upon defeat of the Titans and if the faction's alignment is in Chaos.
