Description
At twenty-eight years old, Chris Avenir is a freelance gunner originally from Paris who plays a significant role as a supporting pilot. His surname, Avenir, means "future" in French, a detail that resonates with his forward-looking attitude even in the face of tragedy. Chris is characterized by his lively, charismatic, and dependable personality; he is frequently described as a reliable big brother figure to those around him. He is pragmatic, talkative, and prefers to focus on actions and results rather than seeking recognition or fame. Physically, he is an adult male with blue eyes and short blonde hair.
Chris does not primarily belong to a single ship but operates as a freelancer. He was sent from the Cerebrum battleship Dvarca to the Okeanos to reinforce their forces during a period of intense combat. He serves as the Gunner for the Zegapain Frisberg, a heavily armed machine where he handles the firepower. One of the most defining aspects of his background is his deep, openly affectionate relationship with his wife, Arque Avenir, who served as his Wizard, or co-pilot. After the destruction of the Paris server, they became freelance mercenaries together. Chris holds a philosophy where he does not fear throwing his life away, but instead thinks carefully about where and for whom he makes that sacrifice.
Chris is motivated by love and a strong sense of duty. He shares a deep bond with his wife, and their mutual affection is a rare bright spot in their harsh reality. Knowing that Arque is nearing the end of her existence, he dedicates himself to creating as many happy memories with her as possible, facing her impending loss with a heavy but determined heart. After Arque's death, his primary motivation shifts to carrying on her will. Rather than succumbing to despair, he continues to fight on the Okeanos as a key member of the team, honoring her memory through his actions. He also takes responsibility for caring for her dog, Pieta, who was named after the pub where he first proposed to Arque.
In the story, Chris arrives as a reinforcement to help the main crew of the Okeanos. His role is that of an experienced, reliable veteran whose combat skills make him a secret weapon for the team. Following the loss of his partner, he adapts to new configurations; Chris later becomes partners with Shizuno Misaki when Ryoko becomes the Altair's new wizard. He also works closely with other key fighters like Jen May-Yen. Among his key relationships, his bond with Arque is the most central and tragic. He also holds a promise with a character named Isola, which he eventually fulfills. After the final decisive battle, Chris keeps his promise to Isola and returns to the Dvarca, where he continues to operate alongside Jen May-Yen.
Throughout the series, Chris develops from a devoted husband into a grieving warrior who channels his loss into purpose. While he maintains his cheerful and upbeat exterior, he carries a profound sensitivity regarding the fragility of his world. His notable abilities lie in his piloting skills; as a Gunner for the Zegapain Frisberg, he is responsible for operating the heavy armament and holonic rifle. His experience and proactive attitude in battle make him a formidable and reliable asset to any team he joins, effectively acting as a cornerstone for the Okeanos team after the loss of his wife.
