Character: Lacus Clyne
Series: Gundam Seed
Character Age: 18, as of Gundam Seed Destiny.
Canon: Amid all the fighting and xenophobia and giant robots and things that go on in the Cosmic Era, amid all the nasty cloak-and-dagger politics and red-tape technicalities, there is a voice of reason heard on every radio station in and out of PLANT: Lacus Clyne, daughter of the late leader of PLANT Siegel Clyne and famous singing idol.

Although Lacus acts and seems rather naïve and clueless when she's first introduced, over the course of both series it becomes clear she's got quite a bit going on in that pink head of hers--she's a politician, a pacifist, and a battleship commander. She steals mobile suits for her boyfriend and can create two-page motivational speeches in her head in the blink of an eye. She treats everyone she meets with kindness, patience, and respect, and those who fail to return the favor may find themselves facing Kira Yamato, Athrun Zala, a military force, or a legion of fanboys. Oh, yeah, and the Haros. Can't forget the Haros. That one in particular would be Lacus's very own Pink-chan, as mentioned below.

Sample Post:

I must say, I've never seen a summer camp like this before! This is a very unique place, isn't it? The moment I arrived, I saw things I'd only imagined. Pink-chan already seems rather fondly acquainted with the many forms of wildlife here. ...and he seems to have fallen in the lake again. Ms. Tentacles, if you wouldn't mind--no, not that fondly acquainted, I'm afraid. There are even people who have been fortunate enough to find futures for themselves even after dying. "Zombies," was it?

I asked the crowd of them that greeted me about my friends, a number of whom have been missing for quite some time--imagine my surprise when I learned they were all here! But after seeing something of what this camp is like and the trials everyone faces here, I believe it's good that they came. I'm sure they've been working hard with all of you towards solving this murder mystery and putting everyone's hearts, including the director's, at ease.

Ah, I almost forgot to introduce myself! My name is Lacus Clyne, and this is Pink-chan. Now that I'm here, I promise to do my best as well. Though after having spent some time with the locals, it would appear that there exists a number of conflicts between these "zombies" and the camper and counselor population, and no small amount of violence.

These "zombies"--no, these people--are as imprisoned in this encampment as we are. Have we, the campers and counselors of Camp Fuck You Die, forgotten what it means to work with someone else outside those whom we call "our own" towards building a shared future we can all be proud of? Have we held shotguns and swords too long for us to know what it means to grasp that kind of future? Are we still able to put our weapons down and pursue it, or has it already slipped through our fingers, stained with blood as they are?

I'm sure each and every one of us is capable of doing our part to ensure a peaceful tomorrow. For example, although Ms. Tentacles seems rather attached to Pink-chan, I'm certain having my friend returned to me is as simple as asking. Excuse me, Ms. Tentacles--

--no, that isn't how we shake hands to open negotiations.
