Ribbons Almark was the assistant to Celestial Being agent/observer Alejandro Corner in season 1 of Gundam 00. Alejandro used Ribbons cybernetic and technical capabilities to help him gain control of Veda. After Alejandro's failed attempt to conquer the world, Ribbons has taken his personal agenda into action. In season 2, he has secretly created his own private group called the Innovators. During and A-Laws attack against a Kataron rescue mission, Exia turned up. Ribbons, who was seeing things through Louise Halevy's eyes, was pleased. After Exia was saved by Seravee, Ribbons had a visit from Wang Liu Mei, who informed him about the Ptolemaois 2's location. However, he saw a new system displayed by 00 Gundam, the Twin Drive, another secret that Aeolia hid from everyone else, which enabled Setsuna to defeat the A-Laws mobile suits.
Ribbons sends Ali Al-Saachez to destroy Azadistan, forcing the Middle East to join the Federation.
When Tieria came to a Federation banquet in a female disguise, Ribbons asked "him" to dance. As they danced, Ribbons offered "access rights" to Veda, which surprised Tieria to make him trip but Ribbons caught him. Afterwards, in Ribbon's room, he revealed that Celestial Being - including Tieria - were suppose to be destroyed four years ago. Tieria comes to the revelation that it was Ribbons who disabled the TRIAL system and gave away the GN-Xs to the UN. He considers Aeolia's plans wrong and plans on following what he believes in. Ribbons laughs, saying that Tieria has been influenced by Lockon Stratos too much that he is now a "stupid human". Furious, Tieria pulls out a gun only for Hiling Care to shoot it out of his hands, forcing him to flee.
Later, Ribbons blames Regene for "ruining" the party; Regene counters that they could've turn over to them. Ribbons smirkly says he wants Celestial Being to oppose them. He is certain that Revive will prove Gadessa's superiority in battle.
Ribbons later deployed Memento Mori, a massive superweapon that can fire anywhere, which he says will "unify" humanity. Suddenly, he senses Revive and Bring Stability's defeat at the hands of 00 Raiser. Wang tries to comfort him but he instead slaps her, calling her a "greedy little girl". Ribbons telepathically contacts Bring, informing that he's sending Hiling and Divine to assist them in capturing 00 Raiser.
After Celestial Being had destroyed Memento Mori, Ribbons dispatched his Innovators to intercept Ptolemy 2 and destroy it as payback. However, the ship managed to enter the atmosphere and land safely. Ribbons also had Ali lure Setsuna to Krugis, where he properly introduced himself to the Meister as his savior and 0 Gundam's pilot. He asks Setsuna to hand over 00 Raiser, as he was originally suppose to pilot the machine, but Setsuna refused, bringing up his gun but was shot in the shoulder by Ali. Ribbons then allowed Ali to toy with Setsuna. Later, Ribbons senses Bring's defeat at Tieria's hands.
In episode 17 he once again orders the use of Memento Mori to suppress Hank Hercules's Orbital Elevator coup. The elevator is destroyed, resulting not just in the death of thousands of people trying to evacuate but also endangering the lives of those living in nearby cities. In that same episode, in a conversation with Regetta, Ribbons claims that humans, with their limited lifespans, are incapable of learning from their past mistakes are therefore bound to repeat them. Such was the reason Aeolia created the Innovators, claims Regene, to which Ribbons replies he alone had been created by Aeolia and then proceeded to create them. Therefore, he self-appoints himself as ruler of the world.
Final Confrontation
After claiming once again that he is "The Creator" and revealing to Regene that he is aware of his treachery, as well as creating a clone of himself for the moment Regene actually tries to kill him, Regene loses his temper, kills the clone, and was about to shoot him in the head when Ali Al-Saachez kills Regene off. Ribbons then unveils the Celestial Being, a massive colony-type mothership built by Aeolia to use in the event that humanity will encounter other intelligent life who might be hostile towards them. He uses the ship's weapons to annihilate an entire A-LAWS fleet, prompting Ptolemy 2 moving towards the fortress. However, they were caught off guard by the GAGA Forces, who were all equipped with Trans-Am. However, Tieria located Ribbons in Veda's core, saying that Ribbons is not the one to decide humanity's future. Tieria declares that they are Innovades, artificial beings meant to bring about the existence of the true Innovator, which is Setsuna. However, Ribbons states that he has transcended Innovades and true Innovators, promptly shooting Tieria several times.
Suddenly, when Setsuna/00 Raiser unleashes Trans-Am Burst, Innovade quantum brainwaves were disrupted. Ribbons couldn't understand what was happening until he heard Regene's voice, stating that he won't allow things to his way. He then severed his link to Veda as Tieria awakens, remotely activating Seraphim Gundam's TRIAL Field, shutting down all GAGA forces.
Refusing to let his plans fail, Ribbons deployed in his personal mobile suit and critically damaged Seraphim, before turning his sights to Setsuna/00 Raiser. The latter accused him of playing God; Ribbons counters that he is God, as he desires to rule over humanity, or they will continue to struggle and eventually perish. The two begin to fight and only Setsuna's quick maneuvering enabled him to avoid the Reborns Cannon's deadly armaments. Ribbons then revealed that his suit can switch into a Gundam-like form, which is powered by a pseudo Twin Drive System. Ribbons' own skills proved to even outmatch Setsuna's before the other Innovades came to assist him. However, Setsuna was also back-uped by his fellow Meisters, who kill the other Innovators. Even Ptolemy 2 pushed into the fray, firing smoke missiles to give Setsuna an opening. But in the duel, Ribbons is able to steal one of the original GN Drives from 00 Raiser. Though he was pleased by his victory, the Reborns Gundam has received too much damage. Ribbons then spotted 0 Gundam drifting out of Celestial Being's hanger. Attaching the GN drive to his original Gundam, Ribbons went out to finish off his adversary. But when he comes upon 00 Raiser, he finds that the other solar furnace was missing, installed in a repaired Gundam Exia. Ribbons dueled against his foe but ultimately lost on the Moon's surface.
