Cagalli Athha Yula

Cagalli Athha Yula, also known as Goddess of Victory, is one of the main characters from the Mobile Suit Gundam SEED series.
== Charactah Account ==
The adopted daughter of Uzumi Nara Atha, Chief Representative of the Orb Union. Also a rebel leader, guerilla soldier, and a capable, if brash, politician. Hates ZAFT and distrusts the Earth Forces. She provides the military backbone of the Three Ships' Alliance.
Although raised as a princess in Orb and taught to be proper, sophisticated, and elegant; Cagalli is far from it, for she has been shown to be quite stubborn, rebellious, masculine, and often free spirited. Cagalli is also shown to dislike being called a princess and when someone calls her one she instantly tells them not to call her that again. Despite rebelling against both her father and her responsibilities as a princess, she is quite loyal to her country and more than willing to give up her life to save it.
In Destiny, Cagalli becomes the leader of her country in place of her father. However she is shown to be reluctant in speaking against the pro-Alliance leaders of Orb and had trouble difficulty in handling situations when it involves her country's future. Eventually she discovers that she is a capable leader and both her people and herself regained their trust in her.

== Trivia ==
* Before she finds out he’s her brother, she develops feelings towards Kira. This is similar to both Luke and Leia from Star Wars.
* According to an interview with Mitsuo Fukuda, her name is derived after the Japanese word kagaribi (a watch fire or a bonfire).
* Before knowing her true identity, both Kira and Athrun had been rough to her (Kira slapped her in the desert while Athrun tried to kill her on their first meeting).
* Despite the fact that she and Kira Yamato are twin siblings, she insists that Kira is her "little" brother. This is most likely due to his meek nature in the first series. It should be noted that Kira was taken from his mother's womb early in his development and placed into an artificial womb while Cagalli was born as a Natural in her mother's womb, so the two could literally have been born at the same exact time. Although technically, since Kira was removed earlier on from their mother's womb, it can also be said that he was born first.
* There are several references to "dawn" in groups/objects around her.
*# Her love interest, Athrun Zala's first name means dawn or daybreak.
*# The last mobile suit she pilots, the Akatsuki, means "dawn" in Japanese.
*# The resistance group she joins is known as the "Desert Dawn".
*# The disastrous counterattack after the ZAFT attack on Tassil took place at dawn.
*# The company that built the original 5 Gundams, Morgenroete, is based in Orb. "Morgenroete" is German for dawn.
* Also, she has links to the color red as well.
** The "Rouge" in the name of her first mobile suit means red in French.
** Her love interest, Athrun Zala, mostly pilots MS which were either red or pink.
** Her image song is "Desert Rose"; roses are mostly known for being red.
* The Director says that Akatsuki still belongs to Cagalli, and that she only lent it Neo to help end the war.
* Cagalli appears in the Extreme Vs. series as the pilot for her Strike Rouge Ootori Pack.
* Cagalli is the only known Natural in the anime to have the SEED factor.
