== Biography ==
===Background===
Zoya Guseva, known by her codename Chapka, hails from Evalka, a tyrannical country with a strong military tradition. Growing up in Evalka, she was exposed to the strict rules and regulations of the military from an early age. Her parents had served in the Evalkan Ground Forces, and they expected nothing less than for her to follow in their footsteps. As soon as she came of age, Zoya was conscripted into the Evalkan military, where she underwent rigorous training and discipline.
However, it didn't take long for Zoya to become disillusioned with the military life. She found the rigid structure suffocating and resented the numerous rules and protocols that governed her actions. Her independent spirit rebelled against the constraints, and she began to seek a way out of the military.
Zoya's opportunity came when mercenary warfare became a prominent industry in the wake of the PROJECT-G/NEX War. She saw it as a chance to break free from the stifling military environment and chart her own path. With her combat skills and determination, she quickly secured a place among the ranks of MERCS, where she found the freedom and excitement she craved.
=== Lost Light ===
When MERCS divided into OCTO and NONA, Zoya chose to join NONA due to their more flexible and unorthodox approach to combat. She adopted the codename Chapka, which was inspired by her love for wearing a distinctive hat and mask during operations. These accessories not only became her signature look but also served as a reminder of her Evalkan roots, a nod to her past.
== Personality ==
Chapka is known for her eccentric personality, which sets her apart from her fellow mercenaries. Her mannerisms, quirks, and unconventional thinking often lead to unexpected and sometimes chaotic outcomes. She thrives in the unpredictable and unusual, embracing the chaos of the battlefield with enthusiasm.
Chapka has a genuine affection for chaos and disorder. She revels in the pandemonium of battle, thriving in situations where others might feel overwhelmed. Her love for chaos fuels her desire to push the boundaries and create havoc on the battlefield. In wargames, Chapka is notorious for her "run to the battlefield" approach. Instead of taking a cautious or strategic route, she charges headlong into the chaos, relying on her agility and close combat skills to catch opponents off guard. Her unconventional tactics often catch her enemies by surprise.
Chapka's eccentricity extends to her speech, which is marked by a distinct Evalkan accent. Her choice of words and sentence structures may seem odd or humorous to others, adding an element of unpredictability to her communication. Her teammates have grown accustomed to her peculiar way of expressing herself.
Her decision-making process can appear impulsive to outsiders. She doesn't hesitate to take immediate action when she senses an opportunity for chaos or disruption. This spontaneity often leads to unexpected and memorable moments on the battlefield.
Chapka's eccentric personality and love for chaos make her a one-of-a-kind mercenary in the world of wargames. Her unique approach to combat, coupled with her distinctive accent and mannerisms, contribute to her reputation as an unpredictable and entertaining presence on the battlefield.
== Abilities ==
Chapka specializes in close-quarters combat, wielding her trusty ELECTRO SHOCK 8 pump-action shotgun. This formidable weapon fires electric-encased buckshot, making it highly effective in incapacitating or eliminating her opponents within close range. Her role within NONA revolves around using her exceptional speed and agility to excel in direct confrontations where her shotgun's power can turn the tide of battle.
This combination of immobilization and continues damage makes Chapka a formidable force in close quarters engagements, turning the battlefield into a chaotic arena where she reigns supreme.
=== Zap Trap ===
Chapka's formidable ability, known as "Zap Trap," is a testament to her prowess in close-quarters combat. When activated, she fires an orb of Nextech energy into the battlefield, creating a zone of intense electrical interference within a three-meter radius. Any enemies caught within this field experience a significant reduction in mobility, as they become heavily slowed down by the disruptive energy.
The Zap Trap doesn't stop at slowing down foes; it also inflicts gradual damage over time on those unfortunate enough to be caught within its electrifying grasp. As this disruptive field takes effect, Chapka's ELECTRO SHOCK 8 shotgun gains a unique advantage – it becomes virtually bottomless in terms of ammunition, allowing her to unleash a relentless torrent of electric-encased buckshot upon her immobilized adversaries.
=== Skills ===
*Master Combatant: Given her preferred combat range, Chapka has honed her close combat skills to a fine edge. She is adept at engaging enemies in tight spaces through her ELECTRO SHOCK-8 pump action shotgun and can effectively engage in hand-to-hand combat if the situation demands it. Chapka's lean and athletic build grants her exceptional agility and speed. She can swiftly maneuver through various terrains, making her difficult to target in close-quarters engagements. Her agility allows her to close the distance to her enemies rapidly, ensuring that her shotgun's devastating blasts find their mark.
*Tactician: Chapka understands the importance of teamwork and tactics in mercenary operations. She communicates effectively with her teammates and coordinates her attacks to complement their abilities. Her loyalty and commitment to her team make her a reliable asset during missions.

Despite being on opposite sides as mercenaries from different factions, Chapka and Kitty share a unique friendship. Their bond transcends their affiliations, and they often find themselves in friendly rivalries during wargames. Kitty's resourcefulness and Chapka's combat skills complement each other well, and they have earned each other's respect. While they may be on different teams, their friendship remains strong, and they often meet up for drinks and stories when the wargames are on hold.
=== Hound ===
Among her fellow NONA mercenaries, Chapka places immense trust in Hound. She sees Hound as a dependable and level-headed ally who complements her chaotic style with strategic thinking. Their teamwork is seamless, with Hound providing guidance and support while Chapka creates chaos on the front lines. The mutual trust between Chapka and Hound ensures that their collaboration remains effective and often yields impressive results.
Chapka and Hound make an exceptional duo on the battlefield, known for their shared approach of leading the offensive with a relentless and blunt style. Their partnership is built on trust and a deep understanding of each other's strengths.
Hound, with his imposing size and advanced holographic shield technology, takes the front lines, providing a protective barrier for their advance. His shields create a strong defense, allowing their team to push forward confidently. Hound's presence is often a daunting sight for their opponents, as they know that breaching his defenses is no easy feat.
Chapka, on the other hand, complements Hound's approach with her agility and close-quarters combat skills. As they charge ahead, she uses her Electro Shock 8 shotgun to devastating effect in close combat scenarios. Her quick movements and unpredictable tactics keep the enemy on their toes, creating chaos on the battlefield.
Together, Chapka and Hound set the tone for their team's offensive strategies.
