History[]

First Alliance-PLANT War[]

Canaver was a member of PLANT Supreme Council and chair of the Diplomatic Committee during the First Alliance-PLANT War. She represented the colony "September City" and her academic specialty was in information science. Eileen was a staunch supporter of Siegel Clyne, and warned him of Patrick Zala's deceit regarding the target of Operation Spitbreak.[1] In the closing days of the First Alliance-PLANT War, Eileen led Clyne Faction loyalists in a coup d'état of radical ZAFT leadership, before opening the PLANTs to negotiations with the Earth Alliance.[2] After which, she became the Chairwoman of the Provisional Supreme Council.

Months after the end of the Second Battle of Jachin Due, Canaver headed to Earth for peace talks with the Alliance against her fellow council members' advice. Before leaving, she was met by Lacus Clyne, who revealed a plot by Meia Shiva to assassinate her and reignite the war. Thanks to Lacus' warning, Canaver boarded another shuttle and took a separate route. After the signing of the Junius Treaty, Canaver resigned from her position and was succeeded by Gilbert Durandal.

Foundation Conflict[]

In spite of her resignation, Eileen remained an influential figure behind-the scenes. During the Foundation Conflict, Canaver worked with Ezalia Joule, and Intelligence Division Commander Yzak Joule to successfully evacuate Supreme Council Chairman Walter de Lament during Commander Hari Jagannath's coup d'état. Since Jagannath was backed by Foundation, who could potentially aimed the reactivated Requiem towards the PLANTs, Canaver and the others could not launch an immediate counterattack and headed for the repaired Boaz to obtain the ZGMF-1027M Duel Blitz Gundam and ZGMF-103HD Lightning Buster Gundam. When the bulk of Jagannath's forces left to join Foundation's forces in defending Requiem, Canaver and the others were able to return to the PLANTs (with the help of Andrew Waltfeld) and quickly regained control of the PLANTs; branding Jagannath as a traitor and urging the coup forces to return to their posts.[3]
