Throughout his life, Char has gone under several identities, including Édouard Mass and Quattro Bajeena. His nickname, "The Red Comet," was obtained as a result of his outstanding performance at the Battle of Loum during the One Year War, where his mobile suit combat skills became legendary.

Initially motivated by vengeance and a desire for power, his journey takes him through several ideological shifts, eventually altering the political and military landscape of the Universal Century. His enduring reputation in the Gundam universe is defined by his striking red mobile suits and captivating yet enigmatic personality, which have captivated fans across multiple series and generations.
