## History

### Pre-AFAC

Freja would read Undyne *The Art of War* before bed when she was a child [6]. She defeated Gerson to become Captain of the Royal Guard and lost the position to Undyne.

After Asriel destroyed the Barrier and the monsters went free, Freja did not remember what happened to break it. She also fell into depression since the deaths of the children she had been complicit in had ultimately been pointless and had Undyne actually taken her instructions to never trust a human to heart, Frisk would never have been able to free the monsters. As such do deal with the guilt she doesn't think about the it as much as she manage. She and Undyne have almost certainly had a talk about this [10].

### Extra-Dark-Chocolate

Freja's first appearance was in Trash Mart when she attacked Undyne and Alphys. She caught Undyne by surprise and Alphys mustered up the courage to put herself between them.

She stated that she would allow Alphys to marry Undyne when asked by an asker. After an explanation of how combat magic works, she directs their attention to Maverick stalking them in the grocery store and Undyne beats him up.

During this, Alphys and Freja talk about Alphys asking Undyne to marry her. Freja somehow knew that Alphys was carrying a ring in her left pocket.

After a discussion about why Alphys hasn't asked her already, the scene changes and she hasn't been seen since.

### Drop Down Town

Freja's first appearance in this arc was in a photo tacked to a cork board where she was meeting Papyrus with Valorie for the first time [3]. She suggested that he challenge Undyne to a duel at the Pit for the position of Captain of the Royal Guard and explained how the process worked. Though she was unsure of whether or not he would win, she believes if he's willing to challenge her, he should be given the chance [5].

## Family

Marianna - Mother [7]- Banshee-betta fish mermaid [8]

Helena - Mother- Coelacanth mermaid [7]

Valorie- Wife

Undyne- Daughter
