Kudelia Aina Bernstein

Kudelia Aina Bernstein is one of the two tritagonists (alongside McGillis Fareed) of Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans. She is the daughter of Norman Bernstein, a diplomat from Mars' Chryse Autonomous Region. Throughout the series, she seeks independence for the various Martian autonomous regions by the most peaceful method possible.
She is voiced by Yuka Terasaki in the Japanese version of the anime, and by Cherami Leigh in the English version of the anime.
==Appearance==
Kudelia has very long blond hair, which she usually ties in either a low ponytail or high ponytail. Her eyes are violet.
Unlike most characters in the series, she wears a variety of outfits. One of her main outfits is a red, Victorian style dress with white frills, a black bow, white gloves, and brown boots. Her other main outfit consists of a white blouse under a black blazer and a red necktie. Occasionally, when stationed in the Chryse Guard Security/Tekkadan military barracks, she wears a casual white shirt with olive slacks.
==Personality==
Kudelia is a pacifist; she is strongly against violence and believes the best way to achieve independence or success is by doing so non-violently. Nevertheless, she is a strong-willed individual who works hard to accomplish what she and others hope to achieve.
==History==
Kudelia Aina Bernstein is the daughter of Norman Bernstein, a diplomat from Mars' Chryse Autonomous Region, where she also resides. She attended Chris College where she studied history and economics. During an assembly, she gave a speech calling for Mars' independence from Earth, which earned her supporters from all over the (former) red planet (which is now hospitable to sustain life like Earth). The Chryse Guard Security was hired to protect and escort her to Earth for diplomatic meetings, but later dissolved and was replaced by its successor the Tekkadan.
Throughout the series, Kudelia often competes with Atra Mixta for Mikazuki's affection, with Kudelia even receiving a kiss from Mikazuki at one point. Eventually, it is Atra who succeeds after Mikazuki admits to Kudelia that he is planning on conceiving a child with Atra. Kudelia is at first shocked and even heartbroken, but later comes to accept the union.
In the final battle, Tekkadan succeeds in defeating their archenemies, but sadly Mikazuki is killed as a result. Knowing that Atra is now a widow and that her son Akatsuki is now without a father, Kudelia makes the ultimate decision to spend as much time as she has helping Atra raise Akatsuki at their home at Sakura's farm, thus becoming Akatsuki's godmother.
