Tetralyna Nohansen Zelda V (Total War)

Tetralyna "Tetra" Zelda Nohansen V is the fifth Princess of Hyrule of the Zelda dynasty, daughter of Princess Oraiya Nohansen Zelda IV, and the eventual co-ruler of the Gustaf-Nohansen Dynasty beside her husband Link Gustaf II.

Appearance
Tetralyna is a female Hylian with traces of Sheikah blood, roughly 5 feet 3 inches tall. She displays golden blonde hair, blue eyes and fair skin. She is rather short compared to her ancestors, and carries a rather youthful appearance through most her life. Tetralyna is also characterized by a scar on her left cheek, possibly caused by the resulting flames from her prophetic nightmares.

Personality
Tetralyna is remarkably boisterous and outgoing. She is often found running around Hyrule Castle and throughout the streets against her mother's wishes. This adventurous and head-first personality leads to her being rather aggressive prideful later in life, with more concern for matters other than her royal duties. Though generally kind to her friends, she often pranks them and is usually very forward with her opinions of them, even if they are considered mean or harsh.

Powers and Abilities
From a young age, Tetralyna has been suffering from prophetic nightmares that leave her burned. However, nobody else can see the flames and everyone just considers them to be a figment of her hyperactive imagination.

History


Second Golden Age
Tetralyna is born to Oraiya Nohansen Zelda IV and Daphnes Nohansen Kazakk in 105 AG. A rowdy and independent child, Tetralyna is considered tomboyish and is more fond of fighting and exploring rather than her royal duties.

Return of Sulkaris
In 126 AG, during a vacation at Malkariko with her mother, Tetralyna dreams of Hylia, Rauru, Impa, Darunia, a Zora, a Kokiri and a Darknut trapping a screaming girl into a sword. When she tells this to her mother, Oraiya assures her it's just another normal dream and tells her to stop obsessing over them. Immediately, Impa enters their room, informs them of a Gohma army marching on the town, and suspects the involvement of the Fallen Sage Sulkaris.

As the Hylian army starts getting overwhelmed by the Gohma, Oraiya orders Tetralyna to hide until Impa returns. However, Impa doesn't come; instead General Akazoo enters the room and reveals himself as a traitor. Oraiya stabs Akazoo in his cheek, but he removes the dagger along with part of his face and uses it to stab Oraiya herself, assuming he killed her. Afterwards, he discovers Tetralyna hiding under the table, and tries to convince her to cooperate with him. She attempts to run away from him, but finds her escape route being blocked by Azrily, who imprisons her inside the Malmord.

The traitors attempt to barter the captured Tetralyna for a dangerous and powerful artifact in the hands of a band of Keaton criminals under Vigjaro Glade, but their plan is foiled by Kazakk and the knight Link, who brings the fight to them. During the course of the battle, Link secretly secures the Malmord and intends to bring it to his master Hylia.

During the march to Vigjaro, when juggling the Malmord Link accidentally imprisons himself inside it, much to Tetralyna displeasure, until a mysterious woman known as Liyer frees them by destroying the Malmord. At this point, Tetralyna has a vision of Hylians kneeling under the throne of Hylia and a war between the First Sages over control of the Triforce. When Carock, Link's friend in the Order of the Wizzrobe shows up, she warns him that Carock is bringing with him an army to kill the Hylians - a prediction which ends up correct.During the ensuing battle, Carock ambushes Link and Zelda and prepare to imprison in a block of ice, though Kazakk comes to their aid and injures Carock, forcing him and the rest of the Wizzrobes to retreat.

After the battle, Tetralyna explains to Link her prophetic powers: ever since she was a child she would dream of events, and every time she dreams flames would appear, but no one believed her until Link. Not knowing what to do, Link decides to bring Tetralyna to Vigjaro and see what Hylia would do. Tetralyna dissuades him by saying that Hylia is not who she says she is and that they should get away from her, but Link expresses his doubt since the False Goddess has practically raised him as a mother since the end of the Gerudo Wars.

Tetralyna and Link continue into Lanayru, with the Hylian and Zora armies quickly catching up to them. They exchange banter, Link warning Tetralyna to stay on the rocks, lest she is attacked by an Aruroda. Their journey is halted as the city of Panacle Cove is being consumed by Gohma. While discussing their options, Tetralyna is startled by an Aracha. With information of Aruroda nesting from Aydia, she devises a plan to pit arachnid against arachnid, or Gohma against Aruroda. Her plan succeeds and the Gohma continue from Panacle Cove, with Tetralyna having a vision of their assault on Greshou, as well as of a woman with blue hair with an army of Wizzrobes in pursuit.

Unique Bonuses (Kingdom of Hyrule)
Princess Zelda offers several avenues of playstyle to the Hylian forces. She focuses on ranged units, buffing all archers with her Royal Bows tech and her Eyes of the Prophet Ability. Units in formation with her also regenerate health, increasing their survivability during breaks between fights. Her Unique Unit is the mighty Light Arrow Archer. This unit is a powerful combination of a Mage and an Archer, dealing tremendous damage to units with no Magic protection and countering any Shadow units. Choose Princess Zelda as your Hero if you want an army with Strong Archers and minor healing.
