Epic shoulder pad guy, huge-ass forehead kid, and that delicious gay boy who is filled with carmel

We all know that they have some sort back-story behind them. What is it, exactly?

 

I know this sound a bit strange, but I've been aching to discuss this really bad. Shall we?

Soooo, both Charlie and candy boy gained their Geass (Geasses?) from V.V.

I obviously think it's fair to say that Charles received it first, and when he was reasonably young too (a long time ago) considering that he calls Fivehead “nii-san”. Rolo apparently got his many, many years later, and a very young age as well (they showed him killing expertly at six; they must have been training the kid before).

One of my main questions is as to why Rolo recived a Geass.

V.V, at the time, still had his dear Charles at his side, whom was thriving at the throne, and had no need for any more contractors. So, this leads me to believe that Charles influenced who V.V. handed out a contract to. But why Rolo?

The most likely scenario is that he was just a Britannian orphan they picked up off the street and went, “Dude, let's make him an epic assassin lol.”, so they gave him a Geass.

I had almost thought for a few moments that Rolo might actually be the son of the Emperor (that would make LelouchxRolo incest for real, lawl) whom was birthed from a wife he had sometime between the birth of Lelouch and Nunally, but I immediately dismissed the idea because it would be all like, “What? Where was he during their whole childhood? They should have at least known he existed.” Well, Charles could have been horrified with his son's defenseless dewy-eyed uke-ness, so he sent him away for training with a Geass, so Rolo could one day become a knife-wielding, unfeeling, hardcore shota.

Since I think it's pretty clear that he (may) not be Charles's kid (Sunrise does have a way with making everyone related somehow, though), just dumping such a sacred power on a random little kid would be kinda strange, right? Even for the sake of assassination? If Rolo has one, and is working for the throne, it makes me wonder whether or not there are other Geass assassins, or if Rolo is the only one. Don't you think if there were other Geass assassins, they would all have to have something... I don't know, special?

Either way, it still brings me back to the question: Why did V.V/The Emperor desire to give Rolo a Geass?

Lkdjkljdsjkgdsf; this is so confusing, I hope the above post made some sort of sense. Your opinions?

Also, do you ever get that feeling that you just didn't do enough research, and the answer is really obvious, and you just know you'll feel REALLY stupid when someone points it out?

Also, first post-thing in comm. Hi guys. 8D

not even Rolo knowing the location of the Geass HQ
0___0 i though the one that C.C try to said is "maybe rollo don't know where the hell the base of geass", i dunno but i don't think that was VV who give it to Rollo, but that was my IMO. I hope sunrise will clear this question as soon as possible ^^;

But in Turn 8 when Lulu was talking to Rolo:

ロロ：兄さんのことがばれれば、この学園はなくなるしね？
ルル：ああ。それにヴィツ(VV)…
ロロ：うん。裏切り物として　僕を終わる。
ルル：その時は俺も終わりだ。

When Lulu mentioned V.V, Rolo nodded. That kind of tells me his contractor is V.V. Otherwise, Rolo should be more conscious of what the Emperor would do to him, and not what V.V would. Does that make sense?

i see, i just wondering...isn't one contractor for one geass user right? i don't know anymore, if VV is the one who giving Rollo a geass.
I'm still not watching code geass eps.11 yet, so i still in grey opinion now^^;

isn't one contractor for one geass user right?

Don't forget that Mao's contractor was C.C as well ;) Lulu mocked Mao as his 'senpai' of sorts.

Also, when Lelouch beings him up, Rolo says, "Yes, I would be killed as a traitor." I strongly believe he is referring to betraying V.V, the person he made a contract with.

Besides that, in Lost Colors, don't you see him on Kaminejima with Rolo?

I think it's pretty obvious that V.V. is who Rolo obtained his Geass from.
