Robotech The Masters Characters

Picture	Character Name	Voice Actors
	Dana Sterling	Lisa Newman (Credit as Melissa Newman)
Dana is the daughter of Max and Miriya Sterling, two of the heroes of the First Robotech War. This heritage has deeply affected Dana for several reasons.

Second, Dana lives in the heroic shadows of her parents, both Veritech Fighter aces, and heroes loved throughout the world. She feels she must prove that she is as capable a fighter and pilot as both of her parents. Lastly, Dana is alone. Max and Miriya and left Earth nearly a decade ago with Rick Hunter and the SDF-3, leaving Dana in the capable hands of her godfather, General Rolf Emerson. She thinks of her parents often and longs for their return. Dana Sterling is among the first graduates of the Robotech Military Academy, ranking highly in her class as Veritech Hover Tank pilot. She possesses a genuine innocence and a curious mind, ever observant and inquisitive. Dana is an athletic, self reliant, warrior with an outstanding sense of timing and intuition. She is a fine leader, who is always ready to back up her words with action.
	Bowie Grant	Larry Abraham
Bowie Grant is the gentle, introspective nephew of the late Claudia Grant. He is a sensitive, soft-spoken youth, who has yet to find his place in the world. Like his childhood friend, Dana Sterling, his parents left him in the custody of his god-father, General Emerson, while they joined the forces of the SDF-3 on their sojourn to the stars. Bowie and Dana are like brother and sister. When Dana entered the service, Bowie tagged along and eventually became her aid in the 15th squadron. Bowie is a skilled fighter, although he has no love for war or even physical sport. His true interest is in music. Bowie is a gifted piano played and a fair singer. With this in mind, it seems no wonder that he finds himself attracted to the alien, Musica. A mutual attraction the causes both Bowie and Musica to desert their posts in an attempt to avoid the insanity of war.
	Nova Satori	Edie Mirman (Credit as Penny Sweet)
Nova has prover herself a superior G.M.P officer, which has garnered the distinction of being the highest ranking female officer in the G.M.P. She is devoted to her duty, tries to live by the "rules", and is obsessed with carving a better world out of the ashes of the First Robotech War. Nova maintains a cold outer shell, never letting anybody get close to her. She finds Dana Sterling's carefree attitude and disposition inappropriate for an officer, and is envious because Dana can show her emotions so easily. It is a cavalier attitude Nova can not afford, for her devotion to duty often causes her to betray friendship for the "betterment of the people". Nova has a thankless job of trying to glean information from captured prisoners and spies, as well as assisting in security at Monument City. Her most challenging case comes from the investigation of the enigmatic alien, Zor.
	Rolf Emerson	Michael McConnohie
General Rolf Emerson is a charismatic leader who prefers to think through all options before taking action and only resorts to force as a last resort. This trait often places him at odds with the more aggressively decisive style of Supreme Commander Leonard. However, once committed he is a capable strategist and able leader. Emerson takes custody of young Bowie Grant when his parents Vince and Jean Grant leave on a daring expedition to the homeworld of the Robotech Masters. Bowie initially looks up to his godfather and enters the Robotech Military Academy, but differences of opinion eventually place the two at odds. Although Emerson does his best to intervene on behalf of his godson, there is little more he can do when the Second Robotech War breaks out.
	Angelo Dante	Steve Kramer
"Angie" is a rustic, down to earth character who comes from the old school where might usually means right. Angelo remembers the final days of the First Robotech War, and grew up with the Zentradi conflicts and terrorism of the decade following the war. Consequently, he is bitter and suspicious of Zentradi interracial marriages/children and aliens in general. He also tends to be chauvinistic towards women. Yet despite these predjudices, Sgt. Dante is a loyal, dedicated soldier who can put aside his differences and operate as an efficient team member.
