Description
Herman Cross is a character from the Macross Delta film, Passionate Walküre. He is a thirty-three-year-old male of the Windermerean race, hailing from the planet Windermere IV. Within the Windermere Kingdom, he serves as a member of the Aerial Knights, an elite Valkyrie fighter unit, where he holds the distinction of being the oldest member.

Personality-wise, Herman Cross is characterized by his generous and magnanimous nature. He places great importance on the principles of chivalry and is known to treat even his enemies with sincerity. Despite being at a late stage of life for a short-lived Windermerean, his skills as a Valkyrie pilot remain formidable and he is considered the equal of his younger comrades. His motivations are rooted in his duty to the kingdom and his adherence to a personal code of honor as a knight.

In the story, his role is defined by his membership in the Aerial Knights, where he serves as a veteran presence. A key relationship is with his fellow knight, Bogue Con-Vaart, who respectfully calls him master due to Herman's previous career as an instructor at a knight school. The film does not provide substantial information on personal development or a wider range of notable abilities beyond his exceptional piloting expertise.
