A young officer of Zeon. He's the most famous ace pilot nicknamed the "Red Comet" after the color of his Mobile Suit. A part of Dozul Zabi's Space Force, Char brought down five Federation battleships during the Ruum Campaign. This event caused rumors to go around that he might be a newtype of the kind that was talked about by Zeon Daikun. Once Char encounters the Gundam he mets Amuro Rei and the rivalry between the two begin.

Besides his fancy towards the color red, it seems Char is never seen without his helmet, whom's purpose is to hide his secret identity from his fellow Zeon soldiers. He also does not like to wear a pilot suit in battle. And it seems from what I had seen in the Movie's Char can not drive a car. *snicker*

Char is a man with a mysterious past. He's really the son of Zeon Daikun whom Char believed the Zabi family killed his Father. Growing up, Char hatred for the Zabi family grows that he is able to become a part of the Duchy of Zeon in order to be close to the family, Char doesn't even let his friendship with Garma Zabi get in the way of his goal.
