Roy Fokker is the charismatic leader of the famed Skull Squadron. An experienced combat veteran from the recent global civil wars, Roy enlists in the United Earth Government's newly-formed Robotech Defense Force. His assignment is to defend the SDF-1 and its crew. Previous to his military experience, Roy was a famed air circus pilot wiorking with "The Hunter Brothers' Aerial Circus". It was during this period in his life that he met and befriended Rick Hunter - the son of one of owners of the circus and a promising young pilot.
During Roy's training with the Veritech Fighter, the first in a series of reverse-engineered transformable combat mecha to utilize Robtechnology, he met and fell in love with Claudia Grant. It is his relationship with Claudia and his fascination with the potential of the entire Robotech phenomenon that makes Roy much more than just the hero he has become through his daring combat record.

Who said anything about playing? I came to show you how a real pilot can fly a plane.Roy
▶ I shot down over 180 planes during the war.
Rick
▶ So, you're proud of being a killer?
Roy
▶ It was a job. It's hard to explain... When you start flying those fighter planes--well something happens inside of you and nothing seems the same.
Rick
▶ Maybe you're right. But for now, why don't you start by giving me the grand tour.
Roy
▶ Clear the runway and arm these Valkyrie fighters!
