, 草薙水素

The commander at Urisu base is female and was once an accomplished pilot. However, she has since retired from the battlefield and now leads as a commander. She is also one of the Kildren. Initially, she shows a distant attitude towards Yuuichi, but later develops feelings for him that are linked to his lost memories. It's said that Suito had given birth to a child and was responsible for killing Yuuichis predecessor. Despite this, her past remains largely unknown due to rumors and the reluctance of her comrades to discuss it.
