Rika Sundén

==Background==
Rika is a former soldier who was conscripted into the army a year and a half before the end of the war. She and her sisters had managed to avoid being conscripted into the armed forces for the early years of the war. However once her family were caught, she was sent to the training camp of The Shock Corps where she spent six months being trained for her role. In the final year of the First Demon War she was sent to the front lines to fight with all the other young demons.
She fought through some of the worst battles of the war one and was decorated for valour on three occasions. However after one of the worst battles of the war her unit was captured fighting a rear guard action. She spent five months of hell in a prisoner of war camp, where the guards took a shine to her. She survived the maltreatment at her captors hands and returned home, where she joined the Demon Crime Division thanks to the connections of a family friend.

This shield is very large and can cover the whole of her upper body and most of her upper legs. The shield is extremely heavy and only class A Demons or those with comparable levels of strength are able to lift the shield.
