Sardis Judecca Gozzo is a fictional enemy character introduced in Super Robot Wars Alpha 3.
Sardis Judecca Gozzo is the commander of the Ze Balmary Empire's Sixth Fleet, commonly referred to as the Sardis Fleet. Like the rest of his Judecca Gozzo brothers, he is the fifth Judecca Gozzo clone of Euzeth Gozzo, and takes after him in appearance. The only recognizable difference between him and his brothers is that Sardis' hair is red. Both he and his brother, Philadelphia Judecca Gozzo knows the empire is collapsing within itself, through the corruption of its politicians, and is also willing to go to any length in order to prevent such an outcome.
When the Alpha Numbers make their way to the Balmar homeworld, hoping to seek an audience with Ruach Gan Eden at the imperial city, Sardis would be one of the city defenders. Ruach would be defeated, along with Shiva Gozzo, inside the imperial palace. Though it would seem the Balmarian threat was over, a massive meteor shower was headed directly for the planet. Sardis would have his fleet evacuate the citizens, alongside Philadelphia's fleet, and flee Balmar with the Alpha Numbers, just as the catastrophic shower destroyed the planet. He, Philadelphia, Baran Doban, Princess Almana Tiqvah and Luria Kayitz would now be the ones to lead the survivors and restore the empire to its former status, before its corruption crippled it.
Etymology[]
- Like many Balmarians, whose names are of Hebrew origins, Sardis' name is derived from the church of Sardis, one of the seven churches mentioned in the Book Of Revelation.
