Rolo Lamperouge is a major character in Code Geass. He is an assassin who was sent to spy on Lelouch vi Britannia but later aligns himself with the Black Knights and aids Lelouch in his plans despite being hired to stop him in the first place.

History[]
Rolo was trained to be an assassin since he was very young. He normally uses firearms at close range. His real name is unknown and he usually goes by the codename "Rolo Haliburton". Rolo's calm and uninterested exterior hides a ruthless and detached killer who will do whatever it takes to complete his mission. While working with the Britannian Secret Intelligence Service, he often is quiet and observant. Rolo has a very large body count, as he is used to kill without thinking much about it.
He is devoted to Lelouch despite his urge to kill Zero. He has also been heavily affected by his time with Lelouch. Because of this, he was easily manipulated into believing that Lelouch cares for him after Lelouch pretends to have saved his life. Lelouch originally planned to throw him away after he makes good use of him. Rolo is introduced in the second season as Lelouch's younger brother. He is unsociable and reserved, unlike his older brother, a trait which does not gain him many friends at school. His most prized possession is a locket given to him by Lelouch on his birthday.
Rolo states that he refuses to believe that Lelouch meant what he said before, and as he dies Lelouch tells him that he's right, recognizing in his thoughts the lie he'd just told even then. Lelouch digs a grave for Rolo, leaving the locket on the marker. He muses that Rolo was the brother of Lelouch Lamperouge, the Ashford Academy student, not Lelouch vi Britannia, and that he will not waste the life Rolo gave him.
