PersonalityZelda is loyal, efficient, and apathetic. She gets the job done and that's all that matters. She's awkward at best in social situations. She's also irritable, bossy, demanding. She expects every soldier to do their job and do it perfectly. She's also arrogant, thinking that she could lead soldiers better than most officers in most armies. Whether that arrogance is misplaced or not, remains to be seen. She isn't interested in relationships, boys, girls, dogs, cats, she doesn't care at all. The only situation where she isn't emotionless is in battle, whether sniping from a far or in the heat of it, her eyes light up with joy. Much of her personality can be attributed to the traumas she suffered when she was younger and her strict and militaristic upbringing. She resents her father for many things, including pulling strings to get her placed in the 1st Recon. She despises being treated like a helpless girl.
Traits- Excellent Sniper- Due to her top-notch training and natural talent, Zelda is a skilled and deadly sniper.
- Talented Musician- Zelda is surprisingly good at playing the piano and when she does play, she prefers to play in the ancient style of 'Rock and Roll'.

HistoryZelda was born to a Khorenheim Army Officer and an enemy spy. Shortly after Zelda's birth, her mother, the spy, was executed. Zelda's father raised her by himself the only way he knew how, with strict military protocol. She attended state academies from a young age, grooming her for military service. Despite all this, Zelda was a happy, patriotic, and outgoing girl with plenty of friends. She was smart, resourceful, and observant. But her whole world was turned upside down when she was taken advantage of and raped by one of her instructors. The experience shattered her. Her father, going into a rage when he found out, hunted down the man and gunned him down in his home in front of his wife and child. Zelda was in recovery for months, becoming quiet and withdrawn. She went to a new academy a different girl than the on that arrived at her previous one. She still excelled in everything she did. But she was known as cold to other students and had very few friends.
When she was at the age to be ready for military service, she enlisted instead of going to an officer academy, much to the dismay of her father. Shortly after, she enrolled in the Khorenheim Sniper Academy. She was promoted to Pfc after graduating from the academy. After serving at some quiet assignments for nothing more than recon, she heard about the gate on Ennedi. What she never would expected though, is that her father would pull some strings to get her assigned to the Spec Ops Unit that would enter the gate. It angered her beyond belief. She didn't need her father to take care of her. But orders were orders and she was soon heading for Ennedi to join the 1st Recon.
