Trowa Barton
The pilot of the gun-toting Gundam Heavyarms, the boy who calls himself Trowa is the most mysterious of the Gundam pilots. Calm, cool, and detached, he seldom speaks and never smiles. Trowa falls in with a travelling circus troupe as cover for his terrorist mission, finding employment as the world's most dispassionate clown. Trowa is a gifted and fearless acrobat, and these abilities also prove useful in his alternate occupation as a Gundam pilot.
Despite his youth, Trowa is an experienced professional soldier. His preferred combat tactic is to stand his ground and spray the battlefield with an endless hail of bullets, though every now and then he'll dispatch an enemy with his acrobatic trademark move - a mid-air triple spin, ending in a deadly knife slash.
Still touring the world with his traveling circus, as Endless Waltz begins this former guerilla warrior is content with his new life as an acrobatic clown. However, when the circus visits the space colony X-18999, Trowa's path once again crosses that of the Barton Foundation, and he is drawn into the gathering conflict. As he did in the war against OZ, Trowa infiltrates the enemy army to foil their evil schemes from within.
Many mysteries of Trowa's past are revealed in Endless Waltz, including the origins of his borrowed name. Orphaned in infancy, he was raised by a mercenary troop, and by age 10 this nameless boy was already a skilled mobile suit pilot. On the eve of Operation Meteor, he witnessed the murder of the real Trowa Barton by one of Doktor S's assistants, and volunteered to take the dead man's name and pilot the Gundam Heavyarms in his stead.
