Sayla is characterised as mysterious. This is because she is truely unaware of her life as a child, and doesn't knows little to nothing about her brother Casval. Throughout the series she tries make to every opportunity to learn information about him and make contact.
==Biography==
During the One Year War, when the Zeon attacked Side 7, Sayla is evacuated onto the White Base with a large group of other refugees. She volunteers to search for other people in the colony before White Base departs and encounters a masked Char Aznable, discovering that he is really her brother Casval in disguise. He manages to escape and Sayla goes back to the White Base, becoming a communications officer and eventually the pilot for the G-Fighter, fighting alongside her brother's rival, Gundam pilot Amuro Ray. She and Amuro eventually grow very close.
Throughout the series, Sayla attempts to contact her brother. They encounter each other again in the Federation capital of Jaburo and he asks her to leave the Federation Forces but she refuses. They meet again at the Texas Colony where Char explains her true origins and that he joined the Zeon army to get close to the Zabi family in order kill each member to avenge their father. He wants Sayla to avoid war, so he sends her a briefcase full of gold bars intended to help her start a new life on Earth. Sayla soon admits to White Base captain Bright Noa that Char is her brother.
Sayla is almost killed by Char during a skirmish between his troops and the White Base prior to the Battle of A Baoa Qu, but he hesitates when he recognizes her as the pilot of the G-Fighter, allowing Amuro Ray to cut off his Gelgoog's arm and nearly kill him, but his protege Lalah Sune takes the blow for him. During the Battle of A Baoa Qu, Sayla crash lands into A Baoa Qu and finds Amuro and Char, their Mobile Suits destroyed, fighting with swords. She intervenes and begs them both to stop. When he sees Sayla, Char is reminded that the Zabis are the real enemy, and he heads off to finish his revenge, telling his sister to leave with Amuro and have a good life. Sayla escapes the fortress alive, as does Amuro soon after.
At the end of the One Year War, Sayla opened a restaurant named Red Comet Pizza in U.C. 0081.

G-Fighter - A fighter plane and upgrade modules for the RX-78-2 Gundam. This is the first unit that Sayla ever pilots and only pilots the G-Fighter from the attack of the Black Tri-Stars until the attack on Jaburo. Than pilots it again after the Battle of Solomon until the battle of A Baoa Qu.
RX-78-3 Gundam "G-3" - A Gundam-type mobile suit that Sayla recieves after the attack in Jaburo which she repainted in a pink and red color scheme (similar to her brothers mobile suit color scheme) and mainly uses after the White Base crew reassign it to Sleggar Law. She uses it until it takes moderate to severe damage in the Battle of Solomon.
