Brera Sterne (ブレラ・スターン, Burera Sutān) is one of the antagonists in the Macross Frontier television series and its film adaptations, Macross Frontier Movie: The False Songstress and Macross Frontier Movie: The Wings of Goodbye.

He was one of the few survivors of the SDFN-4 Global destruction, and is the brother of Ranka Lee. He later becomes a cyborg undercover agent for the shadow council of the Macross Galaxy. He pilots the VF-27γ Lucifer and develops a rivalry with Alto Saotome.

History

The older brother of Ranka Lee, he was one of the few survivors of the Vajra attack on SDFN-4 Global. He and Ranka got separated around that time. At some point in the past he has sustained serious injuries and was restored to life as a cyborg. His memories of past life were incomplete; he knew however how to play "Aimo", Ranka's song on his harmonica, claiming it to be the only fragment of his past he still remembers. He liked to listen to Ranka's song, describing the feeling he got from her songs as being enveloped in a universe that accepts him instead of rejecting him.

Eventually he became a Major in the Galaxy Fleet Antares Squadron where he piloted a VF-27γ Lucifer. He accompanied Grace O'Connor to Macross Frontier where he was assigned to be Ranka's bodyguard. He assisted Ranka into delivering her stage 2 Vajra pet "Ai-kun" to the rest of its species. Some time later he and Ranka found the planet of origin of the Vajra. His Galaxy controller, Grace O'Connor, was able to control his action through brain implants, and acivated his slave mode, forcing him to follow her orders. In the ensuing conflict O'Connor made Brera help the Vajra by destroying Alto's VF-171EX Nightmare Plus. The explosion of a Vajra carrier nearby shattered Brera's slave circuit implant, thus freeing him from O'Connor's control. He proceeded to encourage Ranka to fight O'Connor's influence and eventually teamed up with Alto and covered him while Alto fought O'Connor.
