Almiria Bauduin (アルミリア・ボードウィン Arumiria Bōdouin?) is a character that appears in the Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS anime series.
Personality & Character[]
Being the daughter of one the Seven Stars, Almiria is polite and reserved in her mannerisms. She is very cheerful, especially around McGillis Fareed who she affectionately calls "Macky."
At times, she feels insecure of her engagement to McGillis as she's looked down upon for being far younger than him.
History[]
Almiria is first seen when Gaelio and McGillis go to the Bauduin estate and she personally greets them, exuberant at McGillis returning and boasts that she's learning to become a proper wife. She makes McGillis tea, but refuses to do so for her brother for teasing her.
Later, she attends a ball and overhears the guests demeaning her by calling her a child. McGillis comforts her by carrying her so they can look each other in the eyes.
After the Battle of Edmonton, she's consoled by McGillis due to the presumed death of her brother (not knowing McGillis was the one who attempted to kill him). Devastated that he's gone, she begs McGillis not to go anywhere to which he promises her she won't. With Gaelio apparently dead she becomes the sole heir to the Bauduin family and starts living with McGillis.
After McGillis betrays Gjallarhorn and she finds out that he killed her brother, she is shocked and upset. When he returns home, she confronts him on the balcony with a knife. McGillis persuades her otherwise, and she instead resolves to kill herself instead. McGillis stops her, which results in the blade going through his hand. He talks her out of killing herself and tells her that he will make her happy. Though she still resents him, she sight of his blood running through the knife and her clothes causes her to calm down and give him a chance.
She is later seen clutching her blood-stained gloves hoping he doesn't die in the final battle. Her father tells her to return home but she refuses, saying that as McGillis' wife she is complicit in his actions and it is her responsibility to wait for him. She is not seen after McGillis' death and her ultimate fate is left unknown, though McGillis remembers her in his dying words.
Relationships[]
McGillis Fareed[]
Engaged to McGillis at a young age, Almiria is enthusiastic of the arrangement and works to make sure she'll be a proper wife to him despite the arrangement being solely political. McGillis is very polite and considerate with her, consoling her with her insecurities and complimenting her on her tea brewing. Her love turns to hatred when she realizes he was a traitor and stabbed her brother in the back, but she ultimately acknowledges their marital relationship and decides to take responsibility for his actions as his wife.
Gaelio Bauduin[]
While polite and respectful towards her brother, Almiria dislikes it when Gaelio treats her like a child. The two often fire barbed comments at one another like siblings would. Despite that, they love each other dearly and Almiria is left heartbroken when she hears of Gaelio's apparent death.
