Brigadier General Qator Bashtar.

A member of the Militesi nobility and a brigadier general in the imperial army, Qator Bashtar serves as Marshal Aulstyne's right-hand man--but not, perhaps, without some reservations. Nevertheless, General Bashtar is the finest MA pilot in the empire, and he often assists in the development of new models by testing them out himself. In spite of his rank, he also accompanies his men out on the front lines, often turning the tide with his own two hands. His military prowess has earned him several epithets, such as 'White Thunder,' 'the White Reaper,' and 'the Unscathed.'

Final Fantasy Type-0

Template:Sideicon Bashtar is known as the empire's best magitek pilot. He was discovered by Marshal Cid Aulstyne, and quickly promoted to general. The empire devised a three-part campaign to invade the dominion, the first phase being Operation Solar Eclipse in which Brigadier General Qator Bashtar would lead a blitzkrieg attack on the Vermilion Peristylium from the ocean. Accompanied by the provisional First Airmobile Force and a l'Cie-piloted magitek armor, the general's objective was to force Akademeia to surrender. While the empire succeeds in conquering most of the dominion, Akademeia, and thus the Vermilion Bird Crystal, are protected by Class Zero. Afterward, the dominion begins its long campaign to reclaim the conquered areas.

FFTYPE0 Qator

Qator Bashtar.

During Rubrum and Concordia's joint attack on Togoreth Stronghold, Qator slaughters many of the opposing soldiers with his new flying magitek armor Gabriel before confronting Class Zero. The MA is still a prototype and overheats easily, and Bashtar is forced to fall back after fighting the cadets. When Class Zero infiltrates the imperial magitek factory and faces off against the White Tiger Crystal l'Cie Nimbus, a ceasefire is called as the Fabula Pact has been invoked halting all military operations between the empire, Concordia and Rubrum. Qator delivers the news to Nimbus and the cadets, saying all combat operations must halt and anyone who violates the pact is to be executed. The cadets give up the battle, but are puzzled a ceasefire with such terms was called at a time Rubrum had deployed them for a sabotage mission to imperial territory.

During the peace talks Queen Andoria of Concordia is assassinated and the blame is placed on Class Zero. As the class orderly Aria Luricara rushes to the cadets to deliver the news, she is shot by a sniper and left behind as the cadets abscond back to Rubrum. General Bashtar finds she is still alive, and orders her taken to a hospital much to his soldiers' surprise.

The queen is succeeded by a king who allies with the empire and the Militesi-Concordian coalition advances on Rubrum from both sides forcing the dominion to split their forces. As the Militesi army drives the Rubrum forces back, Qator receives news the Concordian side is failing to advance, and is disappointed at their inferiority compared to the Militesi forces. He notes that the 108th battalion deployed to the battle has many imperial officers picked by the marshal himself, and deems it a hindrance to his goal of being promoted.

FFT-0 Machina's Forcefield

Machina's forcefield protects Qator from Alexander's attack.

When the Vermilion Bird Secundus l'Cie Lady Caetuna summons Alexander to defeat Militesi, the new White Tiger l'Cie who accompanies Qator erects a forcefield around himself and Qator's Gabriel. Qator and the l'Cie are the only survivors, and decide to retreat.

When the dominion infiltrates the Militesi capital, Ingram, Qator tells Aria to return to the dominion. She refuses, having nominated herself Qator's "minion", grateful for the care he had shown her. When Class Zero arrives Bashtar engages them head on in his improved Gabriel before learning that a malfunctioning prototype Ultima Bomb was secretly installed into his MA. Refusing to allow the city be destroyed, Qator takes the bomb into the atmosphere and jettisons it. However, Gabriel was damaged from the fight with the cadets, and thus is unable to escape the explosion.

Spoilers end here.
