Appearance: Ayanami is a broad shouldered silver haired man with violet eyes. He’s fairly thin and is said to be handsome, but also carries a sickly appearance, noted by other soldiers and Hyuuga. He wears the typical military uniform of ebony and gold, his holding a bit more decoration because of his position.  His uniform has an epaulette on the right shoulder and a gold bird design on the front. His hat also has golden trim upon it showing off that he is a man of high military rank. 

When in Antwort he dons a heavy coat for the cold weather it’s black and silver with a high color and more decoration than what is normally on the regular uniform.

Ayanami is seen in the typical bishop uniform later on.

He is also seen in a fancy white ensemble for the Barsburg ball for Princess Ouka’s birthday.

Personality: Ayanami is a dedicated soldier willing to live and die for the country he serves. He has a deep respect for those that share this view with him. Field Marshal Oak and him shared similar views about what to do with the eye wielders and how to deal with them. He is soft spoken and polite when speaking to others, especially those of higher rank. Though he seems to have a very stoic expression and monotone way of speaking, seemingly emotionless. 

However he has a deep respect for those that serve under him willing to put himself in harms way to keep them safe and unharmed. So long as they have proven to be loyal to him. New subordinates such as Shuri, do not have that same amount of concern or even respect when serving under him. 

Ayanami is never seen alone as he always has at least one Blackhawk by his side, mostly Major Hyuuga, who is the only Blackhawk that causes that emotional mask to crack into something far more irritated. He doesn’t particularly care the antics of Hyuuga and will physically lash out from time to time. 

The Blackhawk commander is a strong and very tactical individual. And quite patient waiting years and years until putting a plan into action. And he’s as merciful as he is merciless. If one is a threat to the military they are removed. But he will not harm those that do not need to be, even going so far as to have others show those kinds of people kindness. Ayanami shows kindness to those that serve him, offering them gifts but also keeping his distance from their close group, seemingly not wanting to get too attached, perhaps because of past events regarding his first Begleiter.   

Before Canon
Ayanami has appeared in both the pilot chapter and the Begleiter chapter. Neither of which are canon.
The pilot chapter is relatively the same as canon except that Lloyd kills Mikage and not Ayanami. Of course this is later changed in the finalized version.

The Begleiter chapter is set some years before canon. It is focused on Ayanami and his new Begleiter, Yukinami, who is actually introduced later in the finalized version having a completely different role making her actions here moot and it is safe to say this particular story never happened in canon.

In this chapter we learn that Ayanami is quite famous in the military for his strategies and tactics but also someone quite feared as well. No one wishes to be his Begleiter because they are fired at once.  

We see Ayanami is less okay with the nicknames that Major Hyuuga give him or of the familiarity of the other. Hyuuga goes to explain that it’s okay because they’re former classmates. As this is not canon it’s difficult to say if this is just something Ayanami got used to in the finalized version or was written out completely as something their time together has always been.   

The chapter goes on to show that while Ayanami is quiet and keeps to himself there is something else that is preventing him from being warm to others.

More importantly it is made known in this chapter that Ayanami once had a Begleiter whom he trusted more than anyone. During a battle, Yukikaze gave his life for Ayanami, and since then the Blackhawk commander’s heart has been shut off from all others. This story giving the man a much more human quality instead of the icy emotionless commander that is shown in the finalized version.

Overall Ayanami’s personality is very much the same as the one in the finalized version just with reasons attached to why he is the way he is, making it much harder to see him as any kind of antagonist in this stand alone story.

Yukikaze has not been mentioned in the finalized version, though an image has appeared of a nameless person, calling Ayanami their king. But if this is Yukikaze it is not known for certain. Especially since the design of the two men is dramatically different. It could all very well be that this story has no meaning whatsoever and is before canon making every thing stated here moot and void in terms of plot and characterization. 

In Canon
Warning. There will be spoilers here. From chapter one till present if this character has made an appearance recently. Read at your own risk.

Ayanami first makes his appearance at the exams for the students where he watches a less than impressive performance eventually going up and  killing the prisoner himself because Teito will not. He is shown with all his Blackhawks, save for Haruse, who may have been there but just not shown with the positioning of characters in the panels. 

In killing the prisoner he startles Teito Klein but no more thought is put into it until the boy overhears a conversation that triggers memories that had long since been locked away. In the vision it is shown that Ayanami was the one that killed Teito’s father, causing Teito to lash out and attempt to attack Ayanami. The attack falls short due to Major Hyuuga’s interference and Ayanami orders Teito to be taken away for interrogation later.  

Later that night Ayanami comes out to see about a disturbance within the building and sees Teito trying to escape. He casts a Zaiphon to try and stop the other, but Teito manages to put up a shield just in time to prevent a mortal wound. However, even though Teito Klein escapes Ayanami is hardly put off by it saying they’ll find him good time as it’s unlikely the boy will be able to remain out of their grasp for long.
