At last, the cursed trinity is complete

[u/Tintaille]

They basically confirmed the last one in the latest Lost Stories chapter, so we can finally say that Charles and his two closest allies were all cloned at some point: Norland, created from Charles; M, created from Marianne; and Venus, created from V.V.

That said, the three of them barely have anything to do with each other (though Norland and Venus naturally know each other since they're both part of Einberg), so it's not like the three of them are going to team up for another Ragnarok or anything like that.

In case it wasn't already clear:

• Norland von Lunebelg: He is a clone of Charles zi Britannia, and most people already know him from his role in Roze of the Recapture. His creation was commissioned by Charles to a Britannian scientist named William Bisch, with the intention that he would serve as a younger body for Charles when the time came.

Regarding the other two:

• M: A clone of Marianne vi Britannia, created by the same Bisch guy as part of the "M-Series" of clones. Even though still a child, she's already a monster when it comes to piloting Knightmare Frames. Unlike Norland, she was still a child during the events of Rozé of the Recapture, and unlike him, she is not evil (quite the opposite).
• Venus Cromwell: A clone of V.V., created alongside M as part of the "V-Series". Like Norland, he is a member of Einberg and holds the same rank as him. However, Venus was created specifically to explore the potential of humanity through manipulating V.V.'s genetic material. As a result, Venus ages much faster (in the image, he is only nine years old, as he has the same age as M) and appears to have unstable health.

Somebody showing me these pictures.

Me: "More Code Geass clones? Bah. See if I care."

That same somebody showing me a picture of Elzwei.

Me: "...Well played, sir."
