[edit] Character

Lucrezia Noin is a very brave, devoted character. While she is willing to fight to the death for her country, she is most devoted to the man she loves, Zechs Merquise. Her relationship with the hero is somewhat public knowledge, as it is heard from the students of the Lake Victoria Military Academy that her and Zechs were the two highest scoring students ever, with Zechs being first. Zechs has always replied to this by saying, it is only because she underperformed to allow him to be the best. In Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz, she is serving with the Preventers, a group of Earth Sphere United Nation peacekeepers. At the end of the OVA, she is seen in a spacecraft with Zechs, heading off to Mars in order to begin work on the teraforming project which is being spear-headed by his sister Relena.

[edit] Gundam Wing: Episode Zero

Lucrezia Noin has also made a minor appearance in the prequel manga, Gundam Wing: Episode Zero. In the Heero Yuy story, in the year After Colony 188, Noin was a young 12 year old cadet serving under her instructor Treize Khushrenada in Colony X-18999 as a communication officer. Although Treize first addressed her as Lucrezia, she pointed out to him to address her as Noin as there was no gender among soldiers on the battlefield. During Quinze's rebellion against the soldiers in the colony, a younger Heero Yuy tried to destroy the command center and Treize moved his OZ-06MS Leo in the way to save the lives of Noin and the other soldiers.

[edit] Mobile Suits

During the series Noin piloted two different mobile suits. First she piloted her own green colored version of the OZ-07AMS Aries model during her time with OZ. After she moved to the Sanc Kingdom, Noin took some OZ-12SMS Taurus mobile suits with her and modified them for land combat, for the sole purpose of forming a small defense force to protect the Sanc Kingdom. Noin would pilot one of these new Taurus suits not only for the remainder of the war, but also during the Mariemaia army uprising as well. Noin also briefly piloted a OZ-09MMS Pisces when she worked with Sally Po in recovering the XXXG-01W Wing Gundam.
