A 21-year-old Delta Platoon pilot known for his unwavering focus on duty. Messer's serious demeanor puts him at odds with Hayate's laid-back approach, though Hayate clearly respects his flying abilities. The tension between them defines much of their dynamic.
Before Marienburg on Alfheim was destroyed by the Var Syndrome, Messer called it home. Arad managed to pull him out during the catastrophe, but not before he got infected himself. He keeps the infection in check using a bracelet that plays "AXIA," a song by Kaname—the same woman he has feelings for, despite knowing she's interested in Arad.
His Siegfried unit, Δ02, is painted in white, black, and gray with a Grim Reaper emblem across the back, earning him the nickname that matches his machine perfectly.
