Edytha Roßmann (エディータ・ロスマン?) is a veteran witch of the 502nd Joint Fighter Wing, originating from Karlsland. Her familiar is the fox.

A girl with a cheerful sort of "face forward" personality, her fighting style is the very essence of cleverness. Because her body can't handle the high-speed maneuvers of dog fighting for an extended period of time it was necessary for her to learn a style that married careful observation of the target to a single decisive blow and follow-through escape. This talent has lead to her being a valued instructor and strategist despite a low confirmed kill count.

Possibly metaphorical, references are made to her "true form" surfacing, as if she never developed her condition. Part of this form is her familiar upgrading to the kyuubi, or nine-tailed, ascendant spirit foxes of Japanese mythology.

Her Pilot archetype is Edmund Roßmann. According to her profile in SWII Vol. 3's booklet, her nickname "Paula" is based on the Latin "Paulus," meaning "small." (This also parallels Edmund Roßmann's nickname of "Paule," a male variant.)
