He became a battle leader of the ''Alexandria'' fleet and was given an experimental variable mobile armor and continued to attack the AEUG. At this time, Yazan acted as a superior to a recruit named Adol. The real reason behind his fighting was to mask his intense hatred towards his superior [[Jamaican Daninghan]] with whom he had several strategic arguments with. During the battle against the ''Argama'', Yazan engages Kamille's Zeta Gundam but is angered when Jamaican attempts to fire at the enemy ships despite Yazan being in the line of fire. In retaliation, he craftily arranges the demise of Jamaican by leading Emma Sheen and Kamille Bidan to the bridge of the ''Alexandria''.

Yazan Gable (ヤザン・ゲーブル Yazan Gēburu?) is a character introduced in the anime Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. He also reappeared in the sequel anime Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ . He was one of the Titans famous aces during the Gryps Conflict. Unlike other aces in the conflict, Yazan showed no signs of Newtype potential, instead, he gained his fame through pure skill and power. In Zeta Gundam, he was responsible for killing more AEUG main characters than any other major Titan pilot. He was also one of the few Titan pilots to survive the Gryps Conflict, adding to his infamy.
Personality & Character
Yazan was characterized by his love for battle and his confident, aggressive and bloodthirsty personality. While he had a tendency for brutality, he did seem to have an issue with how it was carried out, having been disgusted by Jamaican’s plan to drop a colony on Von Braun.
While not usually one to take orders, Yazan had shown himself willing to follow those whom he respects, having allied himself with Paptimus Scirocco halfway through the Gryps War. However, if he believed his superiors to be unfit to command or downright incompetent, he would disregard their orders, and in some cases, engineer their deaths.
Yazan was also shown to care for his squad-mates, most notably ensigns Dunkel Cooper and Ramsus Hasa. During their sorties he was shown to offer encouragement to the wingmen under his command, and when Ramsus was killed in battle, Yazan was deeply shocked by the loss of his brother-in-arms and carried out a fierce counterattack to avenge them.
Skills & Abilities
Yazan was very capable as both a mobile suit pilot and battlefield commander, having planned and carried out effective attacks against the AEUG on multiple occasions. Although possessing no Newtype abilities, Yazan was more than capable of matching the battle prowess of Newtypes, such as Kamille Bidan and Char Aznable.
History
Early Life
Born on Earth in U.C. 0060. Yazan's birth and the personal history of his family are shrouded in mystery. According to reports, he is of a British family line, and that his father is a former scholar, said to have made a grave error during research, thus making him retire from the university he was at. His mother was an uneducated wild woman, who loathed those with intellect and raised Yazan as a man who lives on instinct. A pastor persuaded his mother to put him in a seminary school far away, and for the first time, he received an education. He seemed to have a grudge against his father, with nothing nice to really say about him.
In Universal Century 0079, the Principality dropped a colony on Earth after declaring war against the Federation, damaging Yazan's home as a result. Information on Yazan after this point is unclear, but it is rumored that he became a mobile suit pilot for the Earth Federation and played an active role in it. However, because there is no record of Yazan on file, his superb piloting skills hadn't evolved until the time of the Gryps War. It also seems that he didn't leave any conspicuous achievements on record either.
Around Universal Century 0083, the Delaz Conflict yields no mention of Yazan's name either. He did not readily apply for the Titans during their inaugural role-calling. He spent his days earnestly training in a mobile suit and earned the nicknames of "savage" and "devil".
Gryps War
Yazan makes his major appearance in August of Universal Century 0087, Upon inclusion in the Titans, he was in the defense squad of Operation Apollo, which was to gain control of the city of Von Braun on the moon's surface. He became a battle leader of the Alexandria fleet and was given an experimental variable mobile armor and continued to attack the AEUG. At this time, Yazan acted as a superior to a recruit named Adol. The real reason behind his fighting was to mask his intense hatred towards his superior Jamaican Daninghan with whom he had several strategic arguments with. During the battle against the Argama, Yazan engages Kamille's Zeta Gundam but is angered when Jamaican attempts to fire at the enemy ships despite Yazan being in the line of fire. In retaliation, he craftily arranges the demise of Jamaican by leading Emma Sheen and Kamille Bidan to the bridge of the Alexandria. When Emma fires a shot with her beam rifle, Yazan dodges the blast, allowing it to hit the bridge instead and kill Jamaican.[1]
Throughout the rest of the conflict, several different Titan leaders tried to recruit him to their wing of the group, most notably Paptimus Scirocco, who Yazan felt had actually acknowledged his talent.[2] Yazan gained two wingmen, Ensigns Dunkel Cooper and Ramsus Hasa. Yazan proved to be more than a match for many of the AEUG's pilots. During the Battle of Gryps, Yazan single-handedly took out the AEUG battleship Radish, killing Henken Bekkener. Yazan also killed Katz Kobayashi by after his crash into an asteroid and fatally injured Emma Sheen by delivering the final blow to the PMX-001 Palace Athene and sending debris flying everywhere. The Palace Athene was formerly piloted by another fellow Titan named Reccoa Londe, who was last seen inside the suit before Emma drove her beam saber into the cockpit; it is not made clear whether Reccoa was dead or alive when Yazan finally destroyed her suit. Regardless, Yazan's ruthless actions angered Kamille Bidan and prompted him to tap into his Newtype abilities in order to defeat Yazan by destroying his Hambrabi. However, Yazan escaped by ejecting in his escape pod.[3]
A New Translation
“ | You have your own motives and so do I! | ” |
—Yazan Gable after killing Bask, Mobile Suit Z Gundam: A New Translation |
In the movie version of Zeta Gundam, Yazan is the one to betray and kill Bask Om during the Battle of Axis while the AEUG and Titans were engaging battles in Gryps 2 area instead of Reccoa.
First Neo Zeon War
Several days after the Battle of Gryps ended, Yazan's escape pod was recovered at Shangri-La Colony by Judau Ashta and his gang. Yazan then attempted and succeeded in persuading them into stealing the Zeta Gundam by infiltrating the Argama that was docked at the colony. Eventually, Judau and his friends turned on Yazan when they see him knock out Saegusa, they attack him while he was piloting a Petite Mobile Suit but he manages to escape.
Over the next several days Yazan made several attempts to steal the Zeta and failed each time, earning Judau his ire. In a final attempt to steal the Zeta and redeem himself, Yazan obtains a custom colored Geze and battles Judau in the Zeta Gundam as both him and the Argama attempt to leave Shangri-La. Yazan proves to have the upper hand until Judau manages to outmaneuver him and throw him into the Neo Zeon ship, Endra. In the end, the Zeta and the Argama escaped the colony while Yazan attempted to escape his mobile suit before it collided, by parachuting with a jacket, though the Neo Zeon soldiers believed him to have perished, even erecting a grave for him. However, it is revealed that he did survive, as he later resurfaces in a brief cameo attending a party with Neo Zeon and Federation personnel as a guest.
Later Years
In the manga "MSV-R: The Return of Johnny Ridden," he appeared as the captain of the Earth Federation Forces' MS squadron "Knight Jaeger" around the year 0090 of the Universal Century, under the pseudonym "Vasuki" (the name of Nagaraja, the king of the serpent gods in India).
