History[]
First Alliance-PLANT War[]
On April 10, C.E. 70, Morassim, piloting a YF-3A GINN FEMWS, led a team of three UWMF/S-1 GINN WASP Types against the OMNI Enforcer's 21st Anti-Submarine Warfare Fleet in the Coral Sea. Morassim's team easily wiped out the 21st ASW Fleet, leaving only one survivor: Jane Houston, then a helicopter pilot. Afterwards, he was assigned to the Carpentaria Base.[1]
On March 3, C.E. 71, Rau Le Creuset sent a video message to Morassim requesting for his assistance in hunting down the Archangel. Morassim, who greatly disliking Le Creuset, saw this as a challenge and was determined to destroy the Archangel by himself. He soon launched an attack on the Archangel in the Red Sea, leading a team consisting of two DINNs, one of which he personally piloted, and two GOOhNs. Though they initially held the advantage, both of the GOOhNs were destroyed by Kira Yamato in the Strike Gundam, the Archangel destroyed one of the DINNs, and his own DINN was damaged by Mu La Flaga's Skygrasper, forcing him to retreat.[2]
Four days later, on March 7th, he launched another attack on the Archangel, confronting the Sword Strike Gundam in the ocean with a UMF-5 ZnO. Initially, the ZnO overwhelmed the Sword Strike with its superior power. However, as Morassim grabbed onto the Sword Strike and tried to finish it off by firing its phonon maser cannons at point-blank range, Kira stabbed his Armor Schneider knives into the cannons and tossed the ZnO aside. The ZnO then exploded, killing Morassim.[3]
