Roger Aznable (ロジェ・アズナブル) is a fictional character from the Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin manga series.
History[]
Administrator of Texas Colony at the Side 5 cluster of colony and father of Char Aznable. He was one of the few people at the colony who knew the true identity of Édouard and Sayla Mass. A good natured person, he criticized his son for leaving to join the Autonomous Republic of Zeon military academy. Between U.C. 0074 and 0077, Roger and his wife barely received a letter from Char and not even a visit during his scheduled leave and assumed he had become estranged from his family. Little did they know that Édouard had swapped places with Char so he would be killed by Kycilia Zabi's agents and thus assumed his identity.
During the One Year War, Roger attempted to emigrate to Zeon with his wife Michele during the Loum Campaign in U.C. 0079 and boarded a Zeon-bound ship. He bade farewell to Sayla, promising their paths would cross again. Roger and his wife are killed when the ship is sunk by a Zaku piloted by none other than Char Aznable.
