Tetralyna Nohansen Zelda V (Total War)

Princess Tetralyna Zelda V was the fifth Princess of Hyrule to carry the name Zelda and was an important figure during the Return of Sulkaris, Labrynna's invasion of Hyrule, and throughout the wars leading up to Majora's arrival.

Physical Characteristics
Tetralyna Zelda was a female Hylian with traces of Sheikah blood, roughly 5 feet 3 inch tall. She displayed faded blonde hair, blue eyes and fair skin. She was rather short compared to her ancestors, and carried a rather youthful appearance through most her life.

Personality
Tetralyna was remarkably boisterous and outgoing. She was often found running around Hyrule Castle and throughout the streets against her mother's wishes. This adventurous and head-first personality lead 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 pranked them and was usually very forward with her opinions of them, even if they were considered mean or harsh.

Second Golden Age
Princess Tetralyna Zelda V was born to Princess Oraiya IV and General Kazakk in 142 AG. A rowdy and independent child, Tetralyna was considered tomboyish and was more fond of fighting and exploring rather than her royal duties.

Return of Sulkaris
Tetralyna was confronted by Akazoo and imprisoned by him during his takeover of Hyrule Castle in 160 AG. While captured he attempted to convince her to marry him or he would be forced to execute her and any connections left in the royal family. She was soon rescued by a Hylian army under the command of her father, General Kazakk, and the knight known only as Link.

With Akazoo dead but the Gohma on a rampage across Hyrule, Princess Zelda orchestrated a sneak attack against the Gohma Grand Hive. She would take control of the harbor at Aslosus and ship Hylian soldiers and supplies into the Misery Mire from the southwest by sea. Though they managed to land and reach the Grand Hive, the Gohma were more than prepared as the will of Sulkaris manifested and attacked the invading army. Tetralyna commanded her forces and bombarded the Gohma with artillery, giving Link cover until he managed to slay Sulkaris and cripple the Gohma.

After Sulkaris' defeat, Princess Zelda V returned with her armies to Hyrule and met with the Zora of Lanayru Province in Airu, hoping to help them recover from the Gohma attacks that destroyed their cities. Queen Laruto reluctantly accepted the Princess' aid, and a military and economic alliance was signed. Soon after Oocca armies began to descend upon Lanayru in search of Link and Hylia, attacking Airu and anyone crossing their path. Princess Zelda attempted to defend Link, but she was incapacitated by Mediator Ooccoo.

Princess Zelda remained in Airu with Queen Laruto following the attack to help rebuild the city.

Manifest Destiny
With attacks from the Labrynna Regime on the eastern border of Ordona Province increasing, Princess Zelda traveled south with Link and a small army to help reinforce the region. There she lead a failing defensive mission against Labrynna with Rusl, Ilia, and Ashei. With many of her knights killed, defeat seemed unavoidable until the Labrynna armies were called back to their homeland.

Under the advice of Sheik, Princess Zelda V gathered as many Ordonians as possible and lead a counterattack against the Regime in the east. Once there she successfully freed enslaved Tokay to aid in attacking Lynna City and the Black Tower. The siege was going well until it was discovered that Veran was responsible for the construction of the Black Tower and it was in fact a portal to the Realm of Twilight. King Zant and armies of Twili began to assemble in the Black Tower, descending upon the city and pushing the Ordonian and Tokay armies back. Soon after swarms of Faries under the command of Tarm began to pour into the city, igniting a huge three way battle between all three forces. Princss Zelda was forced to order a retreat and abandon Link, much to her dismay.

Misery began to take hold of the Princess on the route back to Ordona Province because of her failure to hold out for Link and many of her knights to the point where she refused to eat. She chose to march through Faron Woods directly to Lake Hylia and was ambushed by an army of Lizalfos. She was captured and bound during the fight, and was later brought as a sacrifce to Faron Prime.

Though the Lizafos demanded such royal blood be killed on the altar of Faron Prime, Nardu the White instead kept the Princess alive for other means. This sparked a civil war amongst the Lizalfos for fear of angering their gods. The Princess managed to escape her bonds as Nardu the White defended the sacrificial altar from rebellious Lizalfos, eventually confronting the reptile queen herself. Princess Zelda eventually overpowered Nardu, though from the shadows Ganondorf approached and supressed her. It was revealed that Narudu invited Ganondorf to Faron Prime and intended to offer the Princess as a gift to him to seal an alliance between both the Lizalfos and the Gerudo. Pleased with the gift, Ganondorf accepted the treaty and announced his new cooperation with Nardu and formal declaration of war against the Kingdom of Hyrule.

Hyrule in Chaos
Princess Zelda remained trapped at Faron Prime as Lizalfos armies marched west. She was soon freed by Okakusha the Green however, who was revealed to have been helping Link. Reunited with her companion and loyal knight, the two set out to Hyrule. Upon arriving they were immediately scorned and the people demanded exile, dissatisfied with Princess Zelda's rule and the war that had broke out with the Lizalfos. In her absence the lost Goddess Hylia had announced her return and used her army of Wizzrobes to defend and secure the Kingdom. Regardless of her people's betrayal, Princess Zelda challenged Hylia's authority and was nearly killed in battle, had Link not intervened and threatened to die with her. Instead Hylia exiled both Link and Princess Zelda from all territories controlled by the Kingdom of Hyrule.

A Tale of Two Swords
It was then that Midna, who had been following Link since the attack on the Black Tower, approached the Princess and offered her personal forces to her aid. She recommended to Zelda that freeing the Darknut Legion from Gerudo oppression would lead to another potential alliance. After Princess Zelda, Link, and Midna attacked the fortress of Baral's Stand and freed Darknut slaves, the priestess Yaraxonal agreed to form an alliance to strike back at the Gerudo.

With three small armies under her command, Princess Zelda organized a plan to bring the various warring powers in Hyrule into an all out brawl from which her forces could strike. She successfully offered to surrender herself to Ganondorf, Akazoo, and Hylia just south of Lon Lon Ranch. The plan worked, and Gerudo, Stalfos, and Wizzrobe armies confronted each other in a three way battle. Princess Zelda and Midna attacked from the south, while Yaraxonal's Darknut forces moved in from the north. Akazoo was destroyed in battle, as well as most of the Stalfos forces, while Hylia surrendered after watching nearly all of her Wizzrobes die in battle. Ganondorf managed to retreat with what little of his forces were left.

Pursuing Ganondorf, Princess Zelda and her allies confronted Moblin forces under the command of Ghirahim, as well as armies of Twili under the command of King Zant who had recently entered Hyrule through the Arbiter Grounds. There she confronted Ganondorf, who had been transformed into a manifestation of the Moblin king Ganon. During the coarse of the battle Ganondorf managed to suppress Ganon and surrender his forces to the Princess, convincing her that he wished to put an end to Demise's influence over Hyrule. Now with Ganondorf on her side, Princess Zelda's forces confronted Demise. With intervention from Hylia, her forces were able to overcome his and Ganondorf eventually sacrificed himself to destroy Demise.

With all of the Druthulidi dead, Majora resurfaced in Hyrule and Princess Zelda lead several assaults against his forces. Most notably she commanded an army of Hylians, Gorons, Zora, and Kokiri to retake Hyrule Castle, which has been destroyed and remade into Majora's throne. Her assault was successful with combined fire from Trebuchets, Powder Kegs, and Mage Cannons.

The Great Sea
With Majora defeated and the land of Hyrule in ruin, Princess Zelda worked with Queen Laruto to commission and construct a fleet of ships that would explore the northern sea of Hyrule for new lands. When the fleets were completed Princess Zelda assumed command, forgoing her proper title in favor of Tetra, a shortened version of her first name.
