Yuna (ユーナ Yūna) is a character from the Mega Man Legends series. She is the Mother Unit who rules over the systems on Terra.
Characteristics[]
The Mother Units Yuna and Sera are physically similar; both resemble young girls with dark brown skin, green hair and red eyes, and they have the same outfit, marks on their shoulders, and a pair of bracelets with the same marks. However, Yuna's hair (similar to pigtails) is long and tidy, with shorter curved bangs covering her cheeks; her outfit is black, and it also includes a curious symbol consisting of a yellow line and circle connecting into an upside down "q" or "p" shape. In some artworks she only has one bracelet as the other is in Matilda Caskett's left arm, but in-game she has the bracelets on both arms.
Yuna is far more hot-blooded and energetic when compared to the calm and calculated Sera.
Like Sera, Yuna also had a Servitor Unit: Gatz, who accompanied and served Yuna loyally before falling in battle against Sera.
Story[]
Before Mega Man Legends 2[]
A long time ago, after the Master's death, MegaMan Trigger fought against the System to destroy it and fulfill the Master's dying wish, fighting against Yuna, Sera, and others. As time went by, Yuna slowly came to understand what MegaMan was trying to do, and decided to take a neutral position by neither helping nor fighting against him. Sera, frustrated with Yuna's decision, travelled to Terra herself to fight against MegaMan, and the two fought each other to a standstill as Sera wasn't able to bring her full power to bear outside of Elysium, both expending all of their energy and MegaMan's original body being almost totally destroyed. After the battle, Yuna took that opportunity to seal both inside stasis fields, with Sera being imprisoned with Geetz on Forbidden Island while MegaMan was "reset" and sealed with Data on Nino Island.
As time passed, these events were remembered by the Carbons as an old legend about two goddess that watched the world, the sky goddess (Sera) who "guards the record of the ages" and the Earth goddess (Yuna) who "guards the keys". When the sky goddess tried to borrow the keys from the Earth goddess, they argued, and the sky goddess was imprisoned by the Earth goddess on Forbidden Island.
Yuna watched over Forbidden Island since then, warning people to not approach the island and saving Diggers that went there by putting them into hibernation. 30 years before the events of Mega Man Legends 2, she saved Barrell Caskett and Verner Von Bluecher when their ship crashed on the island during an expedition. 20 years later she found Matilda Caskett dying from injuries sustained while trying to explore the island with her husband. Yuna used too much energy and parts of her body trying to save Matilda with her nanotechnology; so much so that she wasn't able to move anymore and had to "borrow" Matilda's body until her body was repaired, which she placed into Matilda's Dropship. From that point on, Yuna inhabits Matilda's body.
Mega Man Legends 2[]
In the beginning of Mega Man Legends 2, Yuna infiltrates the Sulphur-Bottom disguised as a Kattelox TV reporter to warn the people gathered there that the Mother Lode isn't a treasure, but "a catastrophe waiting to happen". Regardless of her warning, Von Bluecher chooses to continue onward. Yuna asks Gatz to attack the Sulphur-Bottom as a further deterrent, but the attack damages the engines, and the Sulphur-Bottom slowly plummets towards Forbidden Island. When MegaMan Volnutt went to Forbidden Island to find the Sulphur-Bottom, Yuna's original body can be seen in Matilda's Dropship, as well as several Diggers in hibernation. After Sera is awakened accidentally by MegaMan (although Yuna and Gatz are indirectly responsible since they made the ship plummets towards the island, which caused MegaMan to go to the island), Yuna takes her original body away from the island and the Diggers are returned to Yosyonke City.
After the four keys to the Mother Lode were found by MegaMan and consequently stolen by Sera and Geetz, Yuna appears to help MegaMan and argue with him. After Geetz's defeat, MegaMan was damaged and Yuna repaired him with Data's help, learning why MegaMan wanted to destroy the System. She helps MegaMan to reach Elysium and stop Sera, guiding him throughout Elysium. After Sera's defeat, Yuna convinces her to save her own life by transferring her primary program to Yuna's original body. The game ended with Yuna (in Matilda's body), Sera (in Yuna's original body) and MegaMan stuck in Elysium, without any means to return to Terra, and with the Elder System starting to awake.
