Description
Colonel Sungloss is a character from the anime The Brave of Gold Goldran. He is an elderly gentleman, approximately sixty years old, who serves as the attendant and butler to the young master Walter Walzac.

His background is that of a high-ranking officer, serving as a staff officer for the TPO combat resource development organization within the Republic of Walzac. Despite his primary role as a servant to Walter Walzac, he holds a significant position within the Walzac military structure.

In terms of personality, Colonel Sungloss undergoes a notable transformation over the course of the story. In his early appearances, he is depicted as quite cruel and calculating, devising numerous sinister plans to assassinate the protagonist Takuya and his friends. However, as the narrative progresses, his character softens considerably, evolving into a more affable, well-rounded, and kindly old man.

His primary motivation is his unwavering loyalty to the Walzac family. Even after the rightful heir regains power in the kingdom of Ceria, the Colonel remains faithfully at Walter Walzac's side, consistently addressing him as young master. His role in the story is initially that of a secondary antagonist who orchestrates schemes against the heroes, but he eventually transitions into a supporting figure who aids them.

A key relationship for Colonel Sungloss is with Walter Walzac, whom he serves with steadfast devotion. His mission from Walter leads to another significant interaction: he is the one who awakens the great dragon robot Golgon from its slumber on Walter's orders, and he attempts to capture the powerful robot before it chooses its own master. He also has a relationship with the Walzac Republic's military machine, for which he served as a strategist.

Colonel Sungloss possesses the tactical acumen of a military strategist, allowing him to conceive complex and dangerous plots. His design is distinct, modeled after a former Japanese cabinet minister and notable for his eyes, which are nearly hidden beneath thick, bushy eyebrows. While he commands forces and pilots machinery, his most notable ability is his capacity for personal change, moving from a ruthless antagonist to a benevolent and reliable elderly figure as the story unfolds. He does not pilot a Brave robot himself, but his actions are instrumental in the plot involving Golgon.
