Ragara Utada is a Water-aspected Senator of the House Ragara caucus in the Deliberative, and wife of 4th Imperial Legion Dragonlord Sesus Hikaru.

Legislatively, Utada is considered liberal in terms of spending and taxation, though she has never embraced such a title, holding that it is good business sense to exploit the economies of scale only the Thousand Scales can achieve. Following her husband’s transfer to the 4th Imperial Legion, Utada also became more critical of 1st Imperial Legion activities. Senator Utada was one of the first figures in Ragara ranks to lobby the Triumvirs and Ragara Banoba to back the Writ of Noblest Garrison RY768.

After great difficulties in consummating her marriage due to the demands of Legion deployments keeping her husband from the Isle, Utada finally conceived at the end of RY766 when her husband had been granted leave to return from the Campaign against the Anathema-Voivode. Alas, at the end of RY767 while she was taking leave on the White Coast in preparation for childbirth a miscarriage was suffered. Utada considers it to have been an assassination carried out by her political opponents, though the Imperial Magistracy found no evidence of foul play.
