Fraternal Twins

Cagalli Yula Athha, the daughter of the Head representative of Orb, and (as revealed near the end of SEED) Kira Yamato 's Natural twin sister. Joins the crew of the Archangel during the ship's fight alongside the Desert Dawn resistance movement. She previously piloted the Skygrasper and Strike Rouge , and possesses the ability to go into SEED mode . Cagalli's love interest is Athrun Zala . After the war she is appointed Representative of Orb as a successor to her father. Manipulated by Jona Roma Saran who tries marrying her after the beginning of the Second Bloody Valentine War as an attempt to take control of Orb, Kira kidnaps her with Freedom in the middle of the wedding, and she ends up joining the Archangel 's crew again. In the Dardanelles Battle and in the Battle of Crete , she tries to stop Orb's army (by then part of the Earth Alliance ) from attacking ZAFT units, only to fail both times; later she is given the ORB-01 Akatsuki to replace her Strike Rouge when defending Orb from ZAFT; afterwards when the Archangel was going into space, Cagalli chose to remain behind, but handed over the Akatsuki for Neo Lorrnoke to use.

Kira Yamato, ex-civilian, Coordinator; childhood friend with Athrun Zala. Pilot of Strike, and later Freedom which he steals with the aid of Lacus Clyne after the Strike was destroyed in battle against Athrun. Has the ability (and is the first pictured) to go in SEED mode; after the Bloody Valentine War lives in Orb with Lacus, Reverend Malchio and the Reverend's orphans. Following the assassination attempt on Lacus, he leaves Orb with the Archangel. During the first part of the Second Bloody Valentine War he, along with Cagalli Yula Athha and the Archangel, tries to stop the Orb forces (which by then had sided with the Earth Alliance) from attacking the Minerva, but fails. The Freedom is eventually destroyed in battle by Shinn Asuka's Impulse. He was able to deactivate Freedom's nuclear reactor allowing him to escape with minor injuries; later takes Cagalli's Strike Rouge into space to protect the Eternal when it is under attack from ZAFT and is given the new Strike Freedom by Lacus Clyne. He later returns to Earth, with the ZGMF-X19A (with Lacus Clyne aboard) in two, just in time to participate in the defense of Orb, under ZAFT's attack. Fending off, with Athrun Zala's later help, the ZGMF-X42S Destiny and the ZGMF-X666S Legend's attacks, he manages to bring ZAFT to a tactical retreat. Due to his accomplishments he becomes an Orb general and gets to command an Orb space fleet, which he brings to space for a final confrontation with ZAFT's forces, both on the Moon and near the Messiah fortress, defeating in the process Rey Za Burrel and witnessing Gilbert Dullindal's death.
