Pilots: GAT-X303 Aegis Gundam
Biography:
Pilot of the stolen Aegis Gundam. In his younger days, he and Kira were very close yet now with Kira on the side of the naturals, it is creating a problem especially with the fact that Naturals murdered his mother in the Bloody Valentine incident and his father is one of the leading war hawks on the ZAFT council. It gets even more complicated when he hears from his fiancé of a politically arranged marriage, Lacus Clyne, admit to him that she likes Kira Yamato. After watching Kira decimate ZAFT forces including killing Nichol of Blitz Gundam, Athrun finally goes all out in an attempt to kill Strike's pilot and survives to end up back at Orb with Cagali who gets into another harsh conversation with him about the war, which leaves them both saddened, introspective, and Athrun starting to doubt why they're fighting at all. He receives a gift from her before returning back to his own forces where he is reassigned to a new mobile suit and a new elite squadron for special forces operations attached to his father's command and his first order of business after hearing of the failure of Operation Spitbreak, ironically, is to hunt down both.
