Biography
Quatre Raberba Winner (Japanese: カトル・ラバーバ・ウィナー, Hepburn: Katoru Rabāba Winā, derived from French quatre, lit. "four")
Quatre was born into the wealthy Winner family, the youngest child of thirty, and the only son. As the sole heir to an enormous fortune, he grew up with all his needs provided for by servants, and a forty-strong private army, the Maganac Corps, to protect him. In spite of his pacifist upbringing, Quatre took up arms to defend the space colonies on which he was raised.
When colonists first migrated into space, pregnant women had problems giving birth to newborn babies. This resulted in artificial reproduction, with babies gestated in test tubes. This problem was later solved, except within the Winner family, who had been in space since the formation of the colonies. However, unknown to Quatre, he was born naturally, although his birth mother died during childbirth. His twenty-nine sisters were all test tube babies. Originally, Quatre did not feel loved and saw himself as an artificial person Zayeed Winner, his father, could easily replace. In the year A.C. 193, he allowed himself to be taken hostage when the Maganac Corps commandeered MO-III intent on negotiating for the employees to return to see their families on Earth. When the Maganacs allowed for Quatre to talk to his father, Quatre accused Zayeed of creating him artificially to be a servant for the convenience of the Winner family. Rasid Kurama, leader of the Maganacs group, slapped Quatre and urged him to have some pride in himself. Also on the resource satellite was Instructor H, who told Quatre to live a life worth being proud of, like the Maganacs.
