Edit Character: Katejina Loos

{{nihongo|'''Katejina Loos'''|カテジナ・ルース|Katejina Rūsu}} is a character and one of the main antagonists from the ''[[Mobile Suit Victory Gundam]]'' TV series. She is voiced by Kumiko Watanabe. ==History== Katejina is a strong-willed seventeen-year-old girl from [[Universal Century Locations#Europe|Uwig]], who was a pen pal of [[Uso Ewin]]. Separated from her parents around the time of the destruction of her hometown by the invading [[BESPA]] forces of the [[Zanscare Empire]], Katejina joins the [[League Militaire]] with young [[Uso Ewin]]. However, Katejina disapproves of the League's reliance on Uso as a [[Mobile Suit]] pilot, due the mounting toll on his young body and mind. Katejina is captured by Lt. [[Cronicle Asher]], and taken to the Zanscare Empire, where she becomes Cronicle's personal assistant. Later, she trains as a soldier, eventually becoming a Mobile Suit ace pilot. It is during this period that her attraction to Cronicle, and hatred of Uso, begins to grow. Her personal support for Maria's matriarchal ideals, her annoyance at Uso's continual attempts to interfere with what she views as her true happiness, and her sheer admiration for Cronicle turn her into a dangerous Zanscare loyalist. She and Uso battle on several occasions, where she succeeds in killing several members of the [[Shrike Team]], as well as [[Odelo Henrik]] in the process. In the ending stages of the war, she demonstrates awakened [[Newtype]] abilities much like Uso, being able to see beyond her visual sight, and can cause normal people to hear her voice. After the final confrontation with Uso during the [[Angel Halo|Battle of Angel Halo]], she loses her memory and eyesight, and returns to Earth to live out her remaining days in peace. ==Gallery== <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> Katejina Loos 4.jpg|Katejina Loos Lineart Katejina Lineart.png|Katejina Loos Lineart Victory Gundam Characters Lineart 04.jpg|Katejina Loos and [[Chronicle Asher]] Lineart Katejina2.gif|Civilian clothes.

There she undergoes an operation at the Super-Psyco Research Institute, and is transformed into an Cyber Newtype. In the novel, she is ultimately killed in battle with the [[Second V]]. *Katejina served as both a "Navigator" for players, and also piloted the Gottrlatan unit in [[Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme Vs.|''Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme Vs.'']]. She and [[Haman Karn]] were the only two Navigators in that game to pilot a unit, and were carried over to the [[Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme Vs. Full Boost|follow-up game]], with [[Nena Trinity]] being a third Navigator that was selectable. *The name "Katejina" is likely a direct Japanese transcription of Czech name "Kateřina," as she lived in '''Uwig''', which is fictional version of Prague, prior to the events of this series. ==External links== {{Universal Century characters}}[[ja:カテジナ・ルース]]
