Tem Ray
Tem Ray

Tem Ray's birthplace is unknown, but like Amuro it is thought to be somewhere between Japan and the East Coast of the United States. As for Tem's personal life, he married Amuro's mother, Kamaria and led a normal life when he was not serving in the EFSF. Sometime before the One Year War, Tem was called up to research and develop weapons for the EFSF at Side 7 and took his son with him, much to Kamaria's dismay.

Tem and Amuro

When the project was in its final stages Tem was sent to report to Jaburo to receive the White Base and bring it to Side 7, where he was to collect its MS compliment. On the way there; however, the ship was tracked by Char Aznable from his Musai-class cruiser, after Char stumbled upon the White Base while returning from a mission of his own. Once docked at Side 7, Tem tried to save the remaining MS but was sucked into the vacuum of space when a Zaku's reactor exploded. Sometime after, he was rescued by a shuttle and sent to one of the neighboring sides where he received medical treatment, but he never recovered from the long period of oxygen deprivation.

During the last encounter with his son, Tem congratulated him for doing a good job and gave him a piece of machinery, saying it would enhance Gundam's power. In an ambigious scene in the movie trilogy, Tem fell down a stairwell while celebrating Amuro's victory in a battle on television. It is possible that he died from head trauma in this scene, but the viewer is never explicitly told whether he died or whether he simply passed out.

Trivia

  • Though it's not mentioned in the stories and movies, the game Ghiren's Ambition shows an effort between General Revil and Tem Ray to convince the Earth Federation general staff that Mobile Suits are the next generation of war machines.
  • Though it's not stated, during the series there were hints that his wife was having an affair.
  • The junk contraption Tem tried to give to Amuro would later on reappear in some of the Super Robot Wars RPGs as an equippable part for playable robots. Usually called "Tem Ray's Circuit", the part actually dropped the overall stats of the robot equipping it (although it drastically reduces the cost of repairing the unit). This implies it could've really setback the Gundam's capacity, and wasn't just a piece of junk he put together. Still, this does go against his claim that the circuit would "increase" the Gundam's performance further.
