Vrlitwhai Kridanik

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vrlitwhai Kridanik is a fictional character in the Macross universe. He first appears in the original Macross. He also appears in Macross: Do You Remember Love? and Macross: Flash Back 2012.

Vrlitwhai (known as Breetai in Robotech and subtitled as Britai in the AnimEigo and ADV Films DVD releases) is a Zentradi fleet commander in charge of his own fleet under the Boddole Zer Main Fleet. As a commander type Zentradi he is larger and stronger than the normal Zentradi soldier and can even survive in the vacuum of space for limited periods of time and can go toe to toe with a Battroid.

The Vrlitwhai fleet was pursuing surviving Supervision Army ships when they stumbled on Earth and the rebuilt Macross. When the booby trap system in the Macross fired on Vrlitwhai's recon team it started Space War I. The fact that the humans possessed reaction weaponry (nuclear devices) — a technology the Zentradi have lost — and that the humans were miclone roused Vrlitwhai's curiosity and made him pursue the Macross personally. Because of his long exposure to human culture, he was one of the early defectors to the human side, helping in ending the war.

After the war was over and peace was signed, the new U.N. assigned him as commander of the U.N. Spacy.
