Vacheron, Nicola

ニコラス・バセロン

Nicola, the sole male member of the 'Idol' team, pilots the Buster Machine Vingt-Sept. Prior to Lal'C joining the Topless ranks, he was regarded as one of the most powerful Topless of his generation. He serves as Lal'C's inspiration (much like Lal'C inspires Nono) and appears to share a relationship with her, although it remains debatable whether this bond is romantic. Nicola is interested in Nono and perceives potential in her to become a Buster Machine pilot, even though Nono has never displayed any Topless reaction—a phenomenon that their minder Casio suggests may be impossible for artificial beings. He secretly assists Nono in joining the Fraternity under the guise of being an 'auxiliary' member.
