Antagonists

ZAFT/PLANT Council

Rau Le Creuset

Rau Le Creuset (ラウ・ル・クルーゼ, Rau Ru Kurūze) is an elite ZAFT commander, a skilled mobile suit pilot, and an adept tactician, whose abilities are greatly valued by the ZAFT leadership. He always appears in public with his unique mask covering his face. He becomes famous early in the war during the Battle of Yggdrasil, using his ZGMF-1017M GINN High Maneuver Type mobile suit to destroy thirty-seven Earth Alliance mobile armors and six warships. Despite this fame, he is later revealed a danger to all of humanity and ultimately emerges as the series' main antagonist.

His birth name is Rau La Flaga (ラウ・ラ・フラガ, Rau Ra Furaga), the direct clone of Mu La Flaga's father, Al Da Flaga. Rau possesses spatial awareness, a trait he apparently inherited from his "father" and shares with his "brother" Mu. However, Rau has short telomeres within his DNA that cause him rapid aging problems. This is done intentionally, so that Rau can catch up to Mu in age and replace him. Rau takes a drug that stabilizes his aging; if he goes too long without taking the medication, he suffers intense pain. Rau eventually decides that Naturals and Coordinators are both unfit to live, and plans the destruction of both.

In the final battle of the war, Rau pilots the ZGMF-X13A Providence Gundam, the final ZAFT suit. He battles with Kira Yamato in the ZGMF-X10A Freedom, who manages to surpass him. Before being finished, Rau and his mobile suit are destroyed by the self-destruction of GENESIS, dying with a smile on his face. In Gundam SEED Destiny, Gilbert Durandal, Rau's former friend and doctor, often imagines Rau conversing with him. He also appears in the final episode to Rey Za Burrel, another clone from Al who he was close with. He is voiced by Toshihiko Seki in Japanese. In English, he is voiced by Mark Oliver in the Ocean dub and by Kevin T. Collins in the NYAV Post dub.

Patrick Zala

Patrick Zala (パトリック・ザラ, Patorikku Zara), father of Athrun Zala, is the National Defense Committee Chairman who leads the radical faction of the PLANT Supreme Council. He lost his wife, Lenore Zala, in the Bloody Valentine Tragedy and blames all Naturals for her death. His grief over the death of his wife, Lenore, made him a man driven by hatred and revenge. This makes him easily manipulated by ZAFT Commander Rau Le Creuset, whom Patrick believes to be his right-hand man. Upon taking over the Plant Supreme Council, he emerges as one of the series' primary antagonists.

Zala has ZAFT construct the GENESIS superweapon and uses it in an effort to destroy all Naturals. Zala soon manages to destroy the Earth Alliance space fleet along with their lunar base at the Ptolemaeus Crater, effectively winning the battle. However, Zala orders the GENESIS to attack the Atlantic Federation capital, Washington. ZAFT Commander Ray Yuki protests such an action, as it would wipe out half of all life on Earth, for which Zala then shoots him. In his dying breath Yūki mortally wounds Zala. As he lies dying in Athrun's arms, Patrick tells his son to fire GENESIS on Earth and make his vision of a Coordinators' world come true. He is voiced by Kinryu Arimoto in Japanese. In English, he is voiced by Andrew Kavadas in the Ocean dub and by Marc Diraison the NYAV Post dub.

Eileen Canaver

Eileen Canaver (アイリーン・カナーバ, Airīn Kanāba) is a member of PLANT Supreme Council and Diplomatic Committee Chairwoman during the First Alliance-PLANT War. She represents the colony "September City" and her academic specialty is in information science.

In the closing days of the First Alliance-PLANT War, Canaver led Clyne Faction loyalists in a coup d'état of radical ZAFT leadership, before opening the PLANTs to negotiations with the Earth Alliance, after which, she became the Chairwoman of the Provisional Supreme Council. She was forced to resign after the signing of the Junius Treaty, which put the PLANTs at a significant disadvantage, and was succeeded by Gilbert Durandal. She is voiced by Naomi Shindō in Japanese. In English, she is Lisa Ann Beley in the Ocean dub and by Erin Fitzgerald in the NYAV dub.

Gilbert Durandal

Gilbert Durandal (ギルバート・デュランダル, Girubāto Dyurandaru) is the chairman of the PLANT Supreme Council and a member of the moderate political faction. Durandal is a man of science and medicine rather than politics, with the stated agenda of ending all conflicts between humans, especially the chasm between the Naturals and the Coordinators, i.e. the Earth and PLANT. Before he was Chairman of PLANT, Durandal was a brilliant young physician specializing in genetics and advanced biomedical techniques. He also was a friend of Rau Le Creuset, who was also his patient. Rau's inability to understand the purpose of his existence helped Durandal form his opinions about a perfect world society. Durandal also had a relationship with later Minerva Captain Talia Gladys but she left him because she wanted a child.

After Lord Djibril's death, Durandal proposes his "Destiny Plan", which is immediately opposed by the Atlantic Federation, the Kingdom of Scandinavia, and Orb. The Archangel's crew think his plan would be to implement a new world order where every human is given the role for which they are best genetically suited at birth, and this would fulfill Durandal's ideal of perfect genetic determinism, as this should be the ultimate goal of all Coordinators. Under this theory humans will no longer fight against others for things that they wish, since each person's destiny are predetermined at birth. During the attack on the Requiem, Durandal strikes with the mobile space fortress Messiah, which is armed with a Neo-Genesis array. However, his plans to destroy Orb failed when the Requiem was destroyed. Eventually Gilbert faces Kira Yamato. The Chairman warns Kira that, if he is killed, the world will descend into chaos. Durandal was shot by Rey, who through Kira's reasoning, saw that the Destiny Plan paid too high a price for peace and it would rob humanity of free will. His lover, Minerva's captain Talia and Rey, stayed behind in the crumbling fortress. The three of them are killed by falling debris and explosions. He is voiced by Shūichi Ikeda in Japanese. In English, he is voiced by Ted Cole in the Ocean dub and by Keith Silverstein in the NYAV dub.

Rey Za Burrel

Rey Za Burrel (レイ・ザ・バレル, Rei Za Bareru) is a ZAFT soldier of the Minerva and friend of Shinn Asuka. He begins piloting the classic ZAFT Zaku but later pilots one of ZAFT'S newest mobile suits, the ZGMF-X666S Legend. He is extremely loyal to Gilbert Durandal, who raised him since he was a child, and blindly supports the Destiny Plan, as he believes it will save humanity. During the series it is revealed that he, like Rau Le Creuset, is a clone of Al Da Flaga, created as a transaction in exchange for the funds to finance his Ultimate Coordinator project. Due to the way he was born, his telomeres are shortened, which causes him to rely on pain-relieving medication. Sharing a strong bond with Rau, Rey wishes to kill Kira Yamato for Rau's death.

At the end of the series, Rey is defeated by Kira in combat. Seeing his confrontation with Durandal, Rey shoots his superior, having been moved by his wish for a future of their own. As the Messiah collapses, Rey remains behind with Durandal and Talia Gladys—whom he refers to as mother—and dies with them. He is voiced by Toshihiko Seki in Japanese. In English, he is voiced by Kirby Morrow in the Ocean dub and by Kevin T. Collins in the NYAV dub. As a child, he is voiced by Houko Kuwashima in Japanese. In English, he is voiced by Lisa Ann Beley in the Ocean dub and by Michael Sinterniklaas in the NYAV dub.

He wields enormous influence within the Earth Alliance due to his position as director of the Atlantic National Defense Conglomerate, the Alliance military's primary source of arms and munitions. In Gundam Seed Destiny, he is revealed to have a relative named Bruno within the powerful secret society known as Logos. After the Earth Alliance recaptures the mass driver at Victoria, Azrael decides to go into space on board the Dominion with the three Biological CPU pilots. When he gives the order to launch nuclear missiles at the PLANTs to inflict maximum damage to eliminate the threat to Earth, Natarle Badgiruel objects to his orders. he pulls a gun on her, frightening the other Dominion crew members into submission. Natarle intervenes, restraining him and ordering the rest of the crew to abandon ship. Azrael shoots Natarle during the struggle and then prepares to destroy the Archangel himself. When he fires the "Lohengrin", however, GAT-X105 Strike pilot Mu La Flaga takes the full force of the blast and saves the Archangel. In response, the Archangel destroys the Dominion with its own Lohengrin, killing Azrael and Captain Badgiruel in the process. He is voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama in Japanese. In English, he is voiced by Andrew Francis in the Ocean dub and by Todd Haberkorn in the NYAV Post dub.

Shani Andras

Shani Andras (シャニ・アンドラス, Shani Andorasu) pilots the GAT-X252 Forbidden Gundam. Shani is antisocial, and prefers to fight alone to avoid interference from his teammates. Between missions, he blocks out the outside world by listening to music via headphones.

Shani is by far the most brutal of the human CPUs. Due to his insatiable lust for carnage and devastation, he often neglects orders to retreat and even attacks his own teammates while "having fun". Shani does not state Orga or Clotho's names. As the series progresses, he reveals himself to be a sadistic sociopath with no moral restraints whatsoever. In one instance in the story, he is seen eagerly anticipating the destruction of the PLANTS for the sole purpose of seeing "all the pretty lights". Shani is the first to die among the three. Shani is killed by Yzak Joule during the Second Battle of Jachin Due, when his GAT-X252 Forbidden is destroyed by Yzak's GAT-X102 Duel Gundam. He is voiced by Shunichi Miyamoto in Japanese. In English, he is voiced by Richard Ian Cox in the Ocean dub and by Jon Allen in the NYAV Post dub.

Clotho Buer

Clotho Buer (クロト・ブエル, Kuroto Bueru) is a talkative and quarrelsome person, who is constantly arguing with his teammates. While he fights in his GAT-X370 Raider Gundam, he enjoys shouting out video game–inspired battle cries. Between missions he spends his time playing on a portable game system called the "Great Wonder Swan XXX".

Depending on the version of Gundam SEED seen, Clotho is killed during the Second Battle of Jachin Due either by Yzak Joule in the GAT-X102 Duel using the Buster's rifle (original Gundam SEED), or by Dearka Elsman in the GAT-X103 Buster (Gundam SEED: Special Edition). According to the PlayStation 2 game Gundam SEED: Never Ending Tomorrow, Clotho is not killed by Dearka or Yzak, but dies due to his nervous system failing; however, it is seen that the GAT-X370 Raider is destroyed by Yzak. He is voiced by Hiro Yūki in Japanese. In English, he is voiced by Andrew Toth in the Ocean dub and by Tony Azzolino in the NYAV Post dub.

Orga Sabnak

Orga Sabnak (オルガ・サブナック, Oruga Sabunakku) is effectively the leader of the three biological CPUs. He uses tactics that are reckless and aggressive, causing him to often nearly hit his teammates while piloting his mobile suit, the GAT-X131 Calamity Gundam. He usually spends his time between missions reading paperback novels. He is also the only member of the team that seems to care about the welfare of the other two; when Shani is killed, he screams out his teammate's name, and tries to attack Shani's killer Yzak.

Unlike Clotho and Shani, who were killed by Yzak Joule, Orga is killed during the Second Battle of Jachin Due by Three Ships Alliance pilot Athrun Zala in the ZGMF-X09A Justice, equipped with the METEOR. Athrun slices Orga in half from behind as he is dodging a beam from Kira. In Japanese, he is voiced by Ryohei Odai. In English, he is voiced by Matt Smith in the Ocean dub and by Chris Jai Alex in the NYAV Post dub.

Lord Djibril

Lord Djibril (ロード・ジブリール, Rōdo Jiburīru) is a member of the secret society made up of the leadership of the military-industrial complex "Logos", and is also the successor to former Blue Cosmos leader, Muruta Azrael. Djibril decided that Junius Seven hitting the Earth would be a shameful incident for all those living on Earth, that the PLANTs (and by extension, all Coordinators) were at fault, and that they must all be exterminated; the members of Logos all agreed to this decision, hence reviving Blue Cosmos' plan to exterminate all Coordinators. When Djibril learned from Neo Roanoke that ZAFT forces were the instigators of the colony drop, he submitted the evidence to the people of Earth and Atlantic Federation President Joseph Copeland, thus starting the Second EA-ZAFT War. After Gilbert Durandal revealed to the world that Djibril and his Logos organization were behind the whole war, he was forced to go into hiding. Djibril was able to use the Requiem, a new Earth Alliance superweapon, in an attempt to destroy the seat of the PLANT Supreme Council, notably Durandal, at Aprilus One; however, interference by a ZAFT task force led by Yzak Joule caused Requiem to miss its intended target, instead destroying several other PLANTs. An attack on the Daedalus base by the Minerva led him to flee. In the end, Lord Djibril is killed by Rey Za Burrel when the ZGMF-X666S Legend destroys the Girty Lue, the ship Djibril was escaping on. He is voiced by Hideyuki Hori in Japanese. In English, he is by Alistair Abell in the Ocean dub and by Ian Sinclair in the NYAV dub.

Together with her comrades Sting Oakley and Auel Neider she infiltrates the PLANT colony Armory One and, with the help of some ZAFT-soldiers, they steal three new Gundam-type mobile suits. Stella pilots the ZGMF-X88S Gaia when fighting. While Stella is normally calm, whenever she hears the word "die" or anything related, she grows berserker, afraid of dying. When she suffes from this trauma, Shinn Asuka, unaware of her identity, calms her promising to protect her. Stella befriends Shinn who discovers her identity when taking down the Gaia. Despite Shinn's attempts to keep her away from war, Neo makes her pilot the gigantic transformable mobile armour GFAS-X1 Destroy to attack a large swath of western Eurasia. Shinn tries to calm her, but when she loses control over her fear, Kira Yamato in the ZGMF-X10A Freedom attacks her, causing her death. She tells Shinn she loves him before her death, and reappears to him in the end of the series when Shinn is knocked unconscious, telling she will see him "tomorrow".

Together with his comrades, he sneaks into the PLANT colony Armory One, where he steals one of the three new Gundam-type mobile suits, the ZGMF-X31S Abyss. When ZAFT discovers a laboratory in Lodonia, Auel recalls that his mother was stationed there and promptly begins to freak out. Because of his psychological conditioning, he is rendered helpless when he hears his blockword, in his case the word "mother". Auel, in his confusion, says it out loud to himself and collapses in tears. The doctors on the ship quickly move to readjust his mentality. During the Battle of Crete his Gundam is destroyed by Shinn Asuka when the latter throws the beam javelin of his ZGMF-X56S/γ Blast Impulse into the abdomen of the Abyss, causing it to crash into the sea and explode underwater, and killing Auel in the process.

During the Battle of Dardanelles, Yuna acts as Supreme Commander of Orb's forces ready to intercept the Minerva. Later, after Logos is revealed to the world by Gilbert Durandal, Lord Djibril flees to Orb under protection by the Seirans. However, the Seirans deny sheltering Lord Djibril in Orb. Their denial is all for naught as ZAFT invades nonetheless. As the battle quickly turned against Orb, Cagalli returned to lead her country's forces. As Yuna was unable to successfully command, he was delighted at Cagalli's return and was easily tricked by her into returning control of Orb to her. Her first command was that Yuna be arrested for treason, an order many officers frustrated with his incompetence happily acknowledged, beating him up before subduing him.

Archangel crew

Murrue Ramius

Murrue Ramius (マリュー・ラミアス, Maryū Ramiasu) is thrust into the role of the captain of the Earth Alliance assault ship Archangel, after the ship's original commanding officers are killed during a ZAFT assault on the Heliopolis space colony. She meets Kira during this assault, and as Kira saves her using Heliopolis' mobile suit against ZAFT, she forces him and his friends to stay at the Archangel for seeing the military's secrets. Captain Ramius deserts the Earth Alliance Forces after the Atlantic Federation's betrayal at the Battle of JOSH-A. The Archangel joins with the Clyne Faction to stop both the Earth Alliance and ZAFT from destroying each other. Across the series, she starts romantic relationship with Lieutenant Mu La Flaga and is shocked when Mu is apparently killed in the end of the series. In Gundam SEED Destiny, Ramius returns to the Archangel to interfere with the new war alongside former comrades. When Logos' Neo Roanoke is defeated by the Archangel, she recognizes him as Mu, but he does not remember his former life. As the war continues, Mu starts recovering his memories and Ramius and him continue their relationship. Masatsugu Iwase early designed her for the Gundam SEED manga as a kind-hearted person, despite being the head of the Archangel as she is wedged between her superiors who issue unreasonable orders and Natarle as she tends to ignore Murrue's orders. She is voiced by Kotono Mitsuishi in Japanese. In English, she is voiced by Lisa Ann Beley in the Ocean dub and by Carrie Keranen in the NYAV Post dub, respectively.

Natarle Badgiruel

Natarle Badgiruel (ナタル・バジルール, Nataru Bajirūru) is the executive officer of the Archangel, and supervises the ship's Combat Information Center. Natarle is stern and operates by the book, though she is willing to do almost anything to reach a certain end—even when it conflicts with Captain Ramius. Nevertheless, Natarle is a superb tactical analyst with keen judgment and a knack for swift decision-making, which makes her a valuable asset to the Archangel. After Natarle leaves the Archangel on a transfer order while in Alaska, she is recruited by the Earth Alliance and made captain of the Dominion, which forced her to battle against the Archangel. After witnessing the actions of Muruta Azrael of Blue Cosmos, Natarle chooses to defy the Earth Alliance, which results in her and Azrael's death. She is voiced by Houko Kuwashima in Japanese. In English, she is voiced by Sarah Johns in the Ocean dub and by Lisa Ortiz in the NYAV Post dub.

Mu La Flaga

Mu La Flaga (ムウ・ラ・フラガ, Mū Ra Furaga) is a veteran mobile armor ace, and a longtime rival of ZAFT officer Rau Le Creuset, with whom he demonstrates a strange extrasensory connection—and whom he later finds out to be his brother, created as a clone of his father. A laid-back man with a thick-skinned attitude toward war, Mu is casually boastful of his preternatural abilities, sometimes calling himself the man who can make the impossible possible. After the attack on Heliopolis, Mu joins the crew of the Archangel and develops a relationship with Captain Murrue Ramius. During the course of the series, Mu becomes the pilot of the GAT-X105 Strike, while HD remastered version he instead pilots the GAT-X105 Perfect Strike, a combination of the Strike and its Striker Packs.

Mu is seemingly killed after protecting the Archangel from a positron cannon. In Gundam SEED Destiny, Mu is revealed to be alive, but brainwashed by Logos into the identity Neo Roanoke (ネオ・ロアノーク, Neo Roanōku)—the captain in the Earth Alliance force Phantom Pain. After being captured by the Archangel, Neo experiences flashbacks of his life as Mu, and begins to doubt his identity and memories. Mu then rejoins the Archangel to help end the war and becomes the pilot of the ORB-01 Akatsuki mobile suit. At the end of Gundam SEED Destiny, Mu blocks a positron cannon from hitting the Archangel (mirroring the events at the end of Gundam SEED), causing him to regain his memories. He stays with Murrue after the events of the sequel. He is voiced by Takehito Koyasu in Japanese.

With Kira forced to use the Strike to protect the ship, Mirallia and her friends join the Archangel's group to support him with Miralia becoming assigned to monitor and communicate with Archangel's mobile suit and mobile armor complement. They stay with the Archangel as official military personnel, but Miriallia is shocked when Tolle is killed by Athrun during an encounter against ZAFT.

Sai does not try to win back Flay, and comes to accept that she is with Kira—who is later reported missing in action. With Kira gone, Flay attempts to restart her relationship with Sai, denying she ever felt any emotions for Kira; Sai refuses to believe her. Later, Sai makes peace with Kira, and the two of them remain on good terms for the remainder of their enlistment together.

When Heliopolis is attacked by ZAFT, she becomes a refugee from the Archangel, where she reveals her indifference towards Coordinators. Her father dies when his ship is attacked by ZAFT forces, and she grows shocked from this. However, as she realizes that as Kira is the only person able to save the Archangel, she enlists herself in the military to persuade him to continue fighting against his will. During this time, Flay pretends to be in love with Kira in order to stay with him, breaking up with Sai. As time passes, Flay ends up genuinely falling in love with Kira, which causes her to develop guilt for her actions. As Kira becomes more determined with protecting the Archangel, he breaks up with Flay. Later, when Flay is transferred from the Archangel, she encounters ZAFT's Rau Le Creuset during an infiltration mission. Rau kidnaps Flay and later sends her in a pod to the Dominion ship from the Earth Alliance. Flay starts working for the Dominion ship in hopes of meeting her friends again, but when Azrael tries to go against the captain's orders, Flay and the other crew from the ship are sent to an escape vessel. As Kira tries to rescue the vessel, Rau's mobile suit destroys it, killing Flay instantly. However, she dies happy, feeling she now understood most people's situations.
