Theresa Apocalypse is the principal of St. Freya High and the World's Cutest Valkyrie (self-proclaimed). She is also a clone made from the DNA of Kallen Kaslana and a Honkai Beast named Vishnu.
Appearance[]
With the claim of "World's Cutest Valkyrie", Theresa does live up to her self professed title. As a clone made by Otto Apocalypse from Kallen Kaslana's genes, Theresa takes after her with white hair and bright blue eyes. Due to the cloning experiment, she is not able to physically grow and she is stuck looking like a 12 years old girl, making her the shortest of the characters. Her choice of clothing is generally cute and frilly to match, though she keeps her waist-length white hair in a more mature low side ponytail most of the time. She will change her hairstyle to double buns or pigtails sometimes, with decorative hair ornaments to match her outfit.
Personality[]
She has a similar personality and attitude as Kallen, which made Otto originally believe she could truly be her reincarnation. She is kind and cares about the well-being of others, though she can also be stubborn. While she does have a somewhat mature personality, she does display a fondness for child-like things (sweets, HOMU) and many of her battle phrases involve her calling herself cute or insulting the enemy. Sometimes she also uses her cute appearance to her advantage. Despite her occasional immaturity, she is a very capable principal of St. Freya High and will do anything to ensure her student's safety.
History[]
Theresa, originally called A-310, was one in the A3 clone series made in an attempt by Otto Apocalypse to resurrect Kallen Kaslana in 1972. The previous A1 and A2 clones had melted, so Otto then decided to incorporate the genes of a Honkai beast called Vishnu, which had incredible regenerative powers. These clones, the A3 series, did survive but they would stop aging around twelve years of age. A-310 was one such clone, who was put through a series of mostly unreasonable tests by Otto alongside the rest of her batch to determine who would become "the real Kallen". A-310 won begrudgingly, though she decided to spare the opposing clone, A-303 and granted her mercy. Otto decided that, while A-310 was certainly similar to Kallen, that she was her own person and not his childhood love reborn, thus he named her Theresa and adopted her as his own granddaughter. On December 24th, 1973, the then, B-rank Theresa had been dispatched on her first combat mission and had defeated Parvati who was more than a "chariot-level" threat when Schicksal had diagnosed it.
Fast forward to the Second Eruption (2000) and Theresa is an S Rank Valkyrie of Schicksal. As a part of a genetic experiment that Otto more or less doesn't want people to know the details of, many did avoid her but eventually she was able to get close to a few valkyries, including Cecilia Shariac, the mother of Kiana Kaslana. She and Cecilia are best friends, and after Cecilia's separation with Siegfried, opted to help the two to reunite with some of Cecilia's other companions. When Kiana was born, Theresa began referring to herself as Kiana's aunt. During the Second Eruption, Theresa is one of the first Valkyries to come into contact with Sirin, who initially tries to win Theresa over on account that she believes them both to be children who have been mistreated by Schicksal. After this plan falls through, the two skirmishes before Sirin impales Theresa on one of her void lances. Luckily, Welt Yang had broken into the dimension with Siegfried Kaslana had quickly escaped with her while Welt dealt with Sirin. A while later, Otto reveals that Oath of Judah, Theresa's divine key weapon, had a 0th ability that nullifies Honkai energy, and could potentially kill her if she didn't know how to properly. Later on, Theresa is facing off against Sirin again, expertly wielding Judah's 0th power against her, which immediately incapacitated Sirin. Wielding a spear of Judah, Theresa murmurs her apologies for having no other choice as she stabs Sirin through the heart. Theresa, thinking Sirin is dead from the lethal blow, decides to deactivate the ability and pull her spear out after a short time, exhausted from the toil that Judah's 0th had one her. This, however, allows Sirin to synergize with her Gem of Serenity, to heal herself and come back. Theresa is then removed from the events of the Second Eruption after Sirin retaliates, and Otto alters her memory for a history that benefits only Schicksal.
Following the second eruption, Theresa learns how Cecilia died and becomes furious towards Otto, plotting with Siegfried, who had returned for his daughter, to retrieve Kiana from Otto's clutches. However, Otto had determined that she would do this, and intercepted her. The result of the quarrel led to Siegfried escaping with K423 and Otto claiming that he had retrieved Kiana. Due to Kiana being in Otto's captivity, Theresa cannot leave Schicksal, but she instead, puts in a request to be transferred to the Far East Branch and establish a school for valkyries there named St. Freya High, on June 21st, 2009. In February 2014, when the Nagazora incident happened, Theresa realizes that "Kiana" was amongst the trio of surviving kids and herrscher, from the city after Murata Himeko confronts Raiden Mei. After their meeting, Theresa convinces Kiana to join St. Freya High. It is only until some time towards the end of the year, with the events of AE Invasion, that Theresa realizes the Kiana she has in her care is actually K423, when Dr. Einstein speaks to her privately in the underground church. This gave her the knowledge that the Kiana was a clone even before the story began, and despite this, Theresa continues to shelter her against Otto, even springing her rebellion at the Battle of Schicksal that occurs in Chapter 7.
Story[]
Chapter II[]
Theresa's contacted by Rita who's instructed by Otto to inspect the newly captured AE battleship Selene and take a part in the Valkyrie Examination. 2 days before exams start, Theresa informs Kiana of pre-exam remedials she asked Himeko to prepare for her dearest niece and, a day before the exam, she meets up with Rita as planned.
On the day of the exam, Theresa introduces Rita to all students and permits her to choose a student to spar with. Kiana ends up being chosen and the Kaslana name draws Rita's attention. Theresa promptly denies Kiana's involvement with the House Kaslana. During the last stage of the exam, Theresa bears witness to the simulation program bugging out and spawning sim Ganesha whose data wasn't even supposed to be in the related databases. After the beast is defeated, Theresa checks on her students and dismisses them after confirming they're safe.
She is last seen near newly-awoken Kiana who sleepwalked onto Selene after the exams ended.
Chapter III[]
Theresa briefs Himeko about the history of the gem. 14 years ago, the 2nd Herrscher dragged Siberia into an Imaginary Space before the Honkai-fissile missiles ordered by Overseer Otto Apocalypse to destroy the Herrscher exploded. Once in the Imaginary Space, Cecilia sacrificed herself to destroy the core of the 2nd Herrscher which eventually shattered into 4 gems, one of which is Gem of Desire. However, when Otto and his troop were recovering them, Anti-Entropy's advanced mechas and battleships arrived, led by the 1st Herrscher whom their aim was also the 2nd Herrscher. As Schicksal's troops were devastated during the battle, Otto let them recover along with the corpse as well as the core, deceiving them to think that the core was whole as they didn't know that it had already fractured into 4 pieces. Theresa also briefs Kiana about the battleship during the first story mission, mentioning that the battleship is so powerful that the power of 4 Herrschers are required to power them. Kiana recalls the Void's voice mentioning about 4 keys.
After Wendy had awakened as a Herrscher and is on the run, Theresa offers to help buy time to locate Wendy by airing the S-rank Valkyrie, Durandal's position on a public channel, baiting Anti-Entropy into intercepting the message and head for her location. Kiana and her friends later find Wendy but she flies away again, sparing them out of kindness.
During their chase, Theresa informs them that Durandal found out about Theresa giving away her location and is now being suspected of colluding with Anti-Entropy. Theresa is fortunate that she is still busy with Anti-Entropy and she needs them to find Wendy as soon as possible, although Theresa still has time to complain about Durandal who gave her a hard time while Theresa was a trainer.
After a while, Theresa informs that Durandal has sent Anti-Entropy packing and she needs to give a valid reason for such deliberate action. Kiana and her friends suggest different reasons to try to bluff Durandal. Theresa finds Kiana's reason, which is Anti-Entropy happening to be on a holiday and encountering her on the way, contains no flaw and relays it to Durandal, who somehow buys it. Thersa is saved for the time being.
