Viktora

Viktora is a character and playable unit in War of the Visions: Final Fantasy Brave Exvius. Known as the Elegant Dragoon and the Wintertime Zephyr, she is a dragoon affiliated with Wezette. 
Although she debuts as a supporting character and ally to Glaciela Wezette, her machinations expose her as a central antagonist intending to claim the throne of Wezette for herself in an indirect conflict with Glaciela herself. Viktora is almost always seen with the company of her partner, Luartha.
==Profile==
===Appearance===
Viktora is a pale-skinned young woman with long silver hair wrapped up on a scarf with longer strands on the right side of her face and a metallic spiky headpiece. She dons a set of armored clothing that exposes part of her skin and cleavage, and a flowing skirt with unclothed segments. Her long silvery sleeves expose her shoulders, and she wears armored gauntlets. She wears tights and a pair of heeled boots. In combat Viktora employs a spear with a long tip and two curved blades at the base, with the upper section of the handle being wrapped in what appears to be a scarf with a blue pattern. Viktora equips the Greed Armor, a shoulder protector mounted on her left shoulder with multiple segments and a winged protrusion on top. What appears to be a set of furred cape originates from this equipment.
===Personality===
Viktora is an unapologetic manipulator and a self-centered schemer. Cunning and underhanded, Viktora presents a warm and reliable exterior, which she uses to make those around her lower their guard and trick them for her own benefit, having no qualms about betraying others for her own needs. Vain to a fault, Viktora is self-aware of her beauty, which she takes great care of polishing. She only spends money for this purpose, being stingy otherwise, knowing that her external charm helps her deceive others.
Although she acts like an older sister to Glaciela, she cares little on having Glaciela killed if it suits her ends, even going as far as revealing the location of a rebel hideout for the Wezette forces to massacre, lacking any empathy about having innocents murdered. Betrayal and manipulation are second nature to Viktora, and she employs both to satisfy her greed and lust for power, with little care for collateral damage.
For all her deceit and scheming, Viktora is not entirely heartless and holds a soft spot for her partner in crime, Luartha, being sympathetic to her tragic past and being willing to put her greedy calculations aside to make life better for her. Ever since leaving Wezette, Viktora has toned down on her self-serving practices, taking pity on a town whose inhabitants were cult-indoctrinated into discarding their material possessions, ultimately opting not to take anything.

====A Damsel in Distress====
=====Ep. 1: A Knight's Duty I=====
Tyytas, Chel, and Howlet are on grassy plains where Tyytas takes a breath and mentions how it was grueling. Howlet says it's not worth the big fuss. Tyytas turns to his brother, Howlet, and says that Howlet is too trusting of women. He asks Howlet how many betrayals it takes for Howlet to come to his senses. Howlet posits that a knight can't help but rush to the aid of princesses in trouble, but Tyytas scoffs that Howlet is not a knight to begin with. An excited Chel asks Howlet if she can become a knight. Howlet laughs and says that Chel would become a princess and not a knight.
When a woman's scream is heard Howlet runs in its direction. Tyytas has a bad feeling about it, but can't stand idly by, and Tyytas and Chel follow Howlet. The trio find two young women surrounded by soldiers from Rundall, Tyytas explaining Rundall has been waging war on neighboring nations in a bid to expand their territory. A soldier asks the trio to identify themselves. The two women, Viktora and Luartha, run from the soldiers to the trio, Viktora elated they happened upon some good men. Luartha pleads the trio for help, shocking Tyytas. Viktora and Luartha hide behind Tyytas and Howlet as the Rundall soldiers unsheathe their swords. Howlet assures the two women that they will make quick work of the soldiers. Tyytas wonders how they ended up in this situation again.
=====Ep. 2: A Knight's Duty II=====
After defeating the soldiers, Chel asks if they're dead but Tyytas tells her not to fret as they just can't move for a while. Howlet boasts they barely exerted themselves. Chel praises her brothers. Viktora and Luartha are grateful, but Tyytas wants to know what the Rundall soldiers wanted with them. Howlet tells Tyytas that it's none of their business, but Tyytas reprimands Howlet for charging in without knowing who was at fault. Howlet says they're in Lykeros territory, so any Rundall soldiers here are unleashing chaos on another nation's land. Rundall and Lykeros are in war, and as such, Tyytas says it's not out of the ordinary to find soldiers from Rundall within Lykeros.
Viktora asks who the trio are, as they don't seem to be from either Rundall or Lykeros. Howlet introduces himself as a handsome wanderer, but Viktora can tell he was trying to hide his swordsmanship, claiming he isn't an ordinary traveler. Howlet won't divulge anything further as he believes a measure of mystery keeps a man more alluring. Tyytas sighs Howlet is putting on airs even though he ran away from training. Chel confirms their father got angry and kicked Howlet out. Howlet laughs it off and supposes that everyone has a past. Tyytas explains their brother Howlet was disowned after skipping out on his training and that Tyytas and Chel, as his worried siblings, had followed him. Howlet tells the two women that he wishes he could stick around and to please excuse his tactless brother. Chel tells them goodbye as well. Viktora and Luartha are surprised they were able to meet such skilled men that could be of use.
=====Ep. 4: We Wait until Nightfall=====
The trio finds more fallen Rundall soldiers. Tyytas suspects the women were harbingers of misfortune, as they've been running into Rundall soldiers ever since their encounter with Viktora and Luartha. Howlet says not to worry as he is there to protect them. Tyytas spots an exhausted Viktora running and Howlet approaches her, presuming she was unable to forget about him. Howlet introduces himself and his siblings. Viktora introduces herself and explains that Luartha was carried off by Rundall soldiers. Tyytas doesn't want to get entangled in Viktora's affairs. Viktora apologizes, but Howlet tells her there's no reason to apologize. Howlet asks what Rundall soldiers are doing so far inside Lykeros territory. Viktora explains Rundall won the war and there is no one to oppose them now. Chel says that they can't just let bad guys do whatever they want.
Howlet asks Viktora where Luartha is, with Tyytas saying Howlet needs to stop diving headfirst into situations that don't involve him. Howlet asks if Tyytas is suggesting they abandon the captive princess. Viktora saw Luartha taken to Lykeros Castle, and Tyytas asks if Howlet plans to invade an enemy stronghold. Howlet says it would be foolish to go through the front door, and they should wait until nightfall.
=====Ep. 5: Infiltrate I=====
Howlet, Tyytas, Chel and Viktora infiltrate Lykeros Castle. Viktora is shocked it was so easy, complimenting Howlet. Howlet boasts it's all part of being a gallant gentleman. Tyytas is unhappy, but came because he's worried about them all. Howlet knows where Luartha is being held: the castle dungeon.
=====Ep. 7: The Dungeon=====
As the trio descends into the dungeon, they see fallen Rundall soldiers lining the dungeon floor. Tyytas approaches a wounded soldier to ask what happened. The Rundall soldier assumes they're friends with Luartha and Tyytas denies this. The Rundall soldier asks who Luartha really is, and Tyytas tries to ask where she went, but the soldier collapses. Tyytas deduces that Luartha felled the soldiers, Howlet impressed she turned out to be a feisty princess.
More Rundall soldiers arrive and confront the trio under belief they're in league with Luartha. Howlet denies but mentions that it's not out of the question if Luartha and Howlet become family soon enough. Tyytas tells Howlet to stop complicating matters, and wonders where Viktora went. Tyytas tells Howlet they need to scatter the soldiers and make a break for it, to which Howlet agrees. The trio unsheathe their weapons and face the soldiers.
