Sheeta

Lusheeta Toel Ul Laputa, or Sheeta, is one of the main protagonists in the 1986 animated Studio Ghibli film, Castle in the Sky. She is a young girl who carries a volucite stone (levistone in some subtitled version, levitation stone in the original English dub and aetherium in the Disney dub). She is an orphan, just like her friend, Pazu.
She is voiced by Keiko Yokozawa in the Japanese version, Anna Paquin (who also potrayed Rogue in the X-Men movies) and Debi Derryberry as a child in the Disney dub, and Lara Cody in the Streamline dub.
==History==
Originally, she came from Gondoa, deep in the northern mountains, and raised cattle alone, until the day Colonel Muska's men came and took her away. She was Muska's prisoner until Dola, a pirate captain, arrived and tried to steal her crystal. Sheeta fell out of an airship and came across Pazu, who rescued her. Pazu helps her escapes from Dola and her crew and they discover the secret of Laputa's power. Sheeta tells Pazu she is a descendant of the people of Laputa right before the two of them are captured by Muska and the army. 
When Sheeta learns about the secret of Laputa and Muska discreetly threatens Pazu's life to guarantee her co-operation, she tries to convinces Pazu to forget about Laputa for his own good. Remembering a spell from long ago, Sheeta recites it and the sacred light brings a huge robot back to life. It scares off the soldiers and hands her over to Pazu, who saves her again. Dola welcomes Sheeta and Pazu to her crew instead of holding them hostage and gives them work. 
After a battle in the clouds, the heroic twosome finally discover Laputa and upon arriving, meet a Laputian robot that's still operational, who guides them to a garden where they find some animals that inhabit it and keep the robot company, a large tree in the center, and an equally large memorial among other things. However, their admiration and awe are soon interrupted when they discover that other parts of the castle are under attack by the army and Dola and the rest of the pirates are being held prisoner, and realize they must rescue the city from Muska's evil plan since he evidently has something planned that the army doesn't know about.
Sheeta notices Muska preparing to open a door leading to the royal chambers, but is kidnapped. Pazu frees Dola and the boys and rushes to save Sheeta. Meanwhile, Muska seizes power over Laputa and kills General Muoro and the rest of the army either by dropping them to their deaths or having an army of robots destroy the Goliath and any survivors. However, Sheeta breaks free of her bonds and pulls the crystal out of his grasp.
However, the evil man attempts to force her to obey him, but Sheeta stands her ground and refuses, telling him that the kingdom died out because its leader was cruel and the world cannot live without love. Pazu then arrives and confronts Muska, who threatens to kill Sheeta if the two of them don't comply. Pazu convinces him that he'll do it if he lets him talk to Sheeta. Muska reluctantly agrees and gives them a minute. Seeing no other way to stop him or get out of the situation, Sheeta and Pazu decide to recite the spell of destruction, destroying the castle and causing Muska to fall to his death. 
With the battle won, our heroes realize that the huge tree living in the middle of the kingdom has saved them with its roots. Then they sail off into the sky with the kite from Dola's ship, which thankfully stayed in tact, and take one last look at the remaining upper portion of the castle, including the garden, during which they spot the robot and some of the animals they met earlier in the garden, before it rises higher into the sky. They then have a happy reunion with Dola and her crew, who were able to escape after Pazu freed them earlier, before they say goodbye and go their separate ways, with the two of them heading to Sheeta's homeland like they resolved to earlier.

==Trivia==
*Sheeta is similar to Rogue from the X-Men film series:

**Both are targeted by the main villains for a special reason (Sheeta is targeted by Muska for her crystal amulet, and Rogue is targeted by Magneto for his machine to turn humans into mutants).
**Both are able to live a normal life in the end with a boy (Sheeta started a new life together with Pazu, Rogue took the mutant cure to love Iceman).
*Sheeta is very skilled at untying difficult knots.
*Sheeta knows extinct Laputa languages and spells, because she learned them from her grandmother and possibly from her parents before they died.
