Aliya Mahvash (アリヤ・マフヴァーシュ Ariya Mafuvāshu?) is a character in Mobile Suit Gundam the Witch from Mercury. She is a third-year student in the mechanical department at Asticassia School of Technology, who belongs to Earth House.
Personality & Character[]
Aliya is an intuitive type who likes to take her time. She loves the divination skills and livestock (yaks, goats, and chickens) that she brought from her hometown.[2] She has the most firsthand experience with taking care of the animals, and she is often apologetic for the issues they cause for the house.
Aliya is very observant of others. She is also averse to getting involved with weapons and armed conflict, such as worrying that the Earth could become a warzone if GUND-ARM Inc. sold weapons.[3]
She is one of the more level-headed members of the Earth House. In crisis situations, she is often willing to take initiative to save her friends' lives, as she helped coordinate the Earth House's evacuation during the Quetta attack[4] and ordered Suletta and Chuchu to flee during the attack on the Rumble Ring.[5]
History[]
Aliya brought her family's farm animals with her when she arrived at the school, as she and her family did not know what kind of school Asticassia was, but she was able to accommodate them at the Earth House dorm despite the increased difficulties they brought.[6]
A.S. 122[]
Aliya was among the students at the Earth House who watched Suletta's first duel against Guel Jeturk.[7] She later watched Suletta's second duel against him.[8]
