The Sleeves are a Neo Zeon remnant organization led by the mysterious Full Frontal, a man who claims to be the second coming of Char Aznable. Strictly speaking, the Sleeves have no relations with the legitimate Republic of Zeon, though the Space Revolutionary Party supports their actions in secret and its leaders provide much of the funding the Sleeves receive.

The primary goal of the Sleeves seems to be to find something called Laplace's Box, which would potentially shore up their legitimacy in some way not fully understood... but doing so requires them to know where it is, a task that would require either the Unicorn Gundam or a miracle. The former is not in their possession, and the latter is in short supply.

In practice, the Sleeves are an organization that knows it wants to fight but has mostly forgotten why. They enjoy a friendly relationship with ZAFT, as ZAFT also wants to fight, and indeed many members use the tragedy of the Bloody Valentine as a convenient excuse. They enjoy friendly relations with many Zeonic remnant groups on the surface. (In practice, Zeon remnant PCs -- regardless of whether they've been able to rendezvous at Palau or not -- will be in the Sleeves group.)

The Sleeves have minimal production capacity, and are mostly limited to mobile weapons they already have and service; fortunately, the legacy of the Zeon Universal Maintenance Plan has made it easy to find compatible scrap for most of their mobile weapons and remain in service. They also have many older mobile weapons, some of which have been in service since the One Year War.

Notable Characters

  • Full Frontal - The leader of the Sleeves, a mysterious man who presents himself as the second coming of Char Aznable. Full Frontal serves as a vessel for the resentment and anger of spacenoids -- indeed, some would say the entire Universal Century.
  • Seidel Rasso - A Zeonic politician in the Space Revolutionary Party who backs the Sleeves. He advocates for spacenoid supremacy, and the idea that Newtypes can only be born in space.
  • Nomoa Long - A Newtype researcher formerly with Zeon's Flanagan Institute. Nomoa Long has turned the tiny community of Fort Severn in Canada into a secret military base from which to achieve his goal of revenge. Thus far, he has done a great job of concealing his activities from the Britannian authorities.

Integration Notes

  • The Space Revolutionary Army has been combined with Zeon, in much the same way as Gundam X's Earth forces were with the Federation. Character backstories remain substantially unchanged. Please contact staff if you're having difficulty reconciling something.
  • Sleeves characters are encouraged to generally wreck things instead of single-mindedly chasing the Unicorn.
