Kitty Rizvan Zelimkhanova formerly served the Waifuwehr of Federal Republic of Germany as an Enlisted Member of the Division Schnelle Kräfte.
= Backstory =
Kitty Rizvan Zelimkhanova was born on the 4th of July, 1992, in the city of Grozny, the capital of the Chechen Republic. Following the fall of the Danilow Soviet Party, Chechnya attempted to attain independence from the Russian People’s Union, and in so doing initiated the First Chechen War. Kitty's parents were both conscripts of the Grozny civil defense during the initial RPU invasion. Indiscriminate artillery and rocket fire killed both her parents in the opening days, and as many as 30,000 other Chechens died in the city within five weeks. As many as 150,000 people, mostly civilians, perished in the war in less than two years. 
Surviving members of the Grozny civil defense took in Kitty in honor of her parents’ sacrifice. Her childhood was spent largely starving, cold, surrounded by the chaos of battle, and scared, but she was also loved. What little the townspeople and rebels could do for her they did, and while it was not the ideal picture of happiness, Kitty loved her people too. Life wasn’t easy but the Chechens had resisted all foreign rulers for over 100 years, and the spirit of the people was truly indomitable. The middle name Rizvan, given by Kitty’s parents, was itself an homage to one of the Chechen rebel commanders.
After the first war and subsequent civil collapse, kidnapping became a primary source of income in Chechnya. Kitty was more-or-less conscripted into the Grozny civil defense out of fear for her safety. As a young girl Kitty was, in a cruel twist of fate, safer in the crosshairs of Russian soldiers than alone in the streets of her homeland. As a conscript she learned self-defense, first-aid, radio operation, how to safely use a weapon, and even how to load and operate various field guns when there was nobody else able to mount a defense. She became a renowned marksman and tended to the wounded, and while the rebels would try to keep her in safety she would inevitably come to their aid in times of need. 
Kitty had already survived a gunshot wound before she was 8 years old. During the Second Chechen War many of her friends throughout the Republic were killed and the rebellion put to a violent end. In a desperate attempt to save Kitty’s life, a ragtag group of rebel survivors used one of their last remaining land vehicles to flee Grozny. It took several years of crossing through countries in Europe as refugees, but the group eventually settled in Mindelheim, Germany.
=== Germany ===
In Germany Kitty was allowed to spend her remaining childhood in relative normalcy. Besides having to explain to people why her body had bullet scars, why her stature was permanently made diminutive from prolonged malnutrition, and why her parents were a band of war-scarred soldiers, of course. Kitty was never going to be normal or have a normal life, but she had an unwavering optimism that she could one day right the wrongs she had witnessed in her life and bring her unique form of family and love to others.
While in Mindelheim she met another girl, Winter, and the two fell madly in love. While about the polar opposite in childhood experience and demeanor, Kitty and Winter were inseparable. Eventually the two adopted a young orphan from Chechnya, Adamska, to which they were proud and loving parents. This period was the happiest point in Kitty’s life. However, she could never forget all those back in her homeland that had lost their lives just so she could be happy in some faraway land, speaking another language, surrounded by a people that would never understand. It weighed heavy on her soul.
It was then, despite great protest from Winter, that Kitty enlisted in the Waifuwehr. In spite of her general opposition to war, Kitty witnessed growing up in Germany that their military was far more sophisticated, properly trained, and well-equipped than her parents had been to defend themselves. Her greatest aspiration was a free and independent Chechnya, but in the meantime she could maybe protect others from having to live like her and Adamska had.
Today Kitty served in the Waifuwehr Division Schnelle Kräfte as a young paratrooper and has actively served on combat missions. She also moonlighted as an archivist and combat photographer/videoographer so as to have things to send back home to her family. 
=== Early Enlistment ===
Kitty Zelimkhanova completed basic training on 02/02/2022 alongside Parsley Braxton - who remains to this day one of her close friends. She studied diligently under Sgt. Dalton McKnight, whom she came to look up to as both a father figure and a soldier. Due in part to her overly-developed optimism and raucous sense of humor she became close friends with Sitirion Heldenerbe, Sara von Steinburg, Laura Eisend, Mikasa and many others. After having spent most of her life without any family, Kitty found a family in the Waifuwehr.
Since the first day of being an OR-2 Kitty volunteered for any duties available: serving on combat missions, attending recruitment runs, and training exercises. Kitty even assisted the General Staff and weapon engineers in fixing technical problems with the then in-development G36A2 service rifle. She would also become an official member of the Waifuwehr media corps. 
As early as February 6, 2022 Kitty volunteered for her first combat mission: Operation Black Hawk. She served with distinction on several operations alongside fellow DSK members Kilic and Tobias Adler. The former she refers to affectionately as “Papa” due to their habit of wise, fatherly lecturing.
Always at the front, Kitty performed several notable combat actions during this early service period. She assisted in rescuing and securing multiple hostages, neutralized scores of hostile combatants, defended several key positions (sometimes alone), and even rescued a critically wounded enemy soldier. Kitty was known to literally laugh in the face of danger and used her off-beat humor to boost morale. Her language skills, while sometimes crude, also proved effective in interpreting enemy communications.
Then, on March 10, 2022, Kitty attended a routine basic training as she often did to greet new recruits. Much to her surprise this time among the dirty, tired faces was Winter. The shy, timid girl Kitty had left behind had become a strong, capable woman. Kitty wanted to chastise her for jeopardizing her safety and leaving Adamska with her rowdy family, but she had never felt such selfless love since she had left Chechnya. She would always love Winter. Adamska would stay with Kitty’s adoptive family, continuing to write letters back and forth, and receiving the countless sums of photographs, DVDs, and trinkets Kitty and Winter would send home.
