Frederica Nikola Tesla

## Nikola Tesla

***Click here for her Dorm entry.***
**Frederica Nikola Tesla**, one of the greatest inventors of all time, is one of the enforcers and founding members of Anti-Entropy.

## Appearance

Tesla has red hair that is tied into two twin tails with red bows. She also has red eyes that rest behind her red glasses. In fact, she also wears a red tie and gauntlet. She is the epitome of red. Other than red, her outfit is monochromatic, with a white shirt and black dress. She also wears white tights and brown business shoes.

## Personality

Tesla is a rather impulsive, impatient inventor. Her room is a total disaster totally because she only focuses on her research, fact not helped by the fact that she was once addicted to online shopping. She also enjoys indulging in consuming alcoholic beverages relatively often. Because of that, she’s even gotten arrested for drunk driving and had to do volunteer work at a cemetery for 5 months, where she befriended the local cats. Besides that, Raven has once chosen to knock her out because she deemed her language inappropriate for children.

Besides all the negatives, Tesla is still a smart and clever scientist. She’s also a great leader, as demonstrated by the fact that she’s temporarily taken control of a small team of men to take down a Honkai beast, and by the fact that she's one of the enforcers of Anti-Entropy.

One person that Tesla has a close relationship to is Welt Yang. Ever since he was a child, she’d show him around the lab and fool around with him, much like when they built the ghost drones that scared Reanna and Welt. During the second eruption, before he left to the moon, they shared a moment together while they danced and Einstein played the piano.

## History

#### Anti-Entropy Visual Novel

Tesla wakes Welt up after eating her truffles and introduces herself to him. Apparently, Einstein had stolen her truffles and given them to Welt as a welcome gift. Since Welt had shut himself off in his room, Tesla became worried that he might’ve taken his life, as he had a history with depression.

Tesla sleeps during the whole first flight to America, but on the second one she makes everyone play Texas Hold’em with chocolate as a replacement for cash. During dinner, she’s tricked by Planck into eating a local delicacy made of bull testicles. She then gets drunk and passes out, and has to be carried by Welt to the hotel.

Next day, Yellowstone Lake – Edison approaches Tesla and flirts with her. They have a talk about economics but it ends up with Nancy bursting into laughter and Tesla calling her a pervert. Inside the underground ruins, they find a riddle someone left for them, so Tesla heads back to London with Einstein and Welt to solve it.

They solve the riddle they find there as well, then they track down the next clue as having something to do with a painting in the museum. The painting’s been coated in soulium, so Einstein takes out a strange device and begins absorbing it from the canvas. The machine creates an ear piercing noise, so Welt freaks out and covers Einstein’s ears instead of his, ignoring the two scientist’s orders.

Tesla scolds him for not listening to them, and gets mad at Einstein for letting go of the issue so easily or, as she puts it, ‘drowning him in her so-called love’. She storms off and comes back home late at night, completely drunk.

She throws herself on the couch and begins ranting to Welt about gender roles. She thinks living your life shackled by labels is boring, as these are just fictional concepts created by society anyways. She goes to grab another drink, but Welt stops her. During their back and forth, Einstein sneaks in and delivers a dictionary blow to Tesla’s head.

The next day she goes to the cemetery and takes Welt with her to feed the cats. Since it’s Halloween, Tesla takes Joachim with her to make remotely controlled robots with bed sheets on them as a childish trick. Reanna and Welt get scared by them, and the Valkyrie destroys them using the Abyss Flower. After that, Reanna apologises and helps Tesla rebuild the robots.

At the end of the month she chills at the Rita seashore hotel for a day, then she heads to Boston with Welt and Einstein to uncover HA’s secret, which turned out to be the 9th divine key: the Star of Eden. Immediately after, an earthquake followed by a Honkai pulse occurs. They find that barnacles are growing out of the streets, so Tesla and the others try to find the culprit.

Tesla calls the Emergency response administration to get their help, and she gets temporal leadership after finding out she’s the 12th on the priority list. Three men come to her aid who also bring a tank that’s ironically been coated with the anti Honkai substance invented by Tesla.  They also receive Reanna’s help in subduing the beast.

Tesla commands the team, and makes up a plan to disable the monster. The Emergency response team is to get in the tank and use special chemicals to immobilize it, and Reanna is to swoop in and take it out using the Abyss flower.

The plan goes smoothly, so now they have to learn how to use Eden’s star, in case Otto gets suspicious of them. On their way to Manhattan, they find a wounded person called Elaine that Reanna helps, so she takes them to their place. Reanna goes out to fight another Honkai beast, and Einstein shows Elaine the “Astra ammunition” that she designed to be used against Honkai.

After a corrupted Schrodinger attacks them and helps Welt awaken his power, they receive a radio signal from Edison. She tells them to prepare and evacuate for the tsunami, as right now she’s pushing a ball of Honkai energy equal to 20.000 TNT bombs towards the ocean.

Nancy tells her that the company will pay her patent fee, but Tesla doesn’t want it unless it’s from her. Tears begin streaming down her face, and before Edison’s gone, they sing “Scarborough Fair” together one last time.

As Finn comes to explain that he’s been threatened by the overseer to tamper with Edison’s calculations, Otto takes over Reanna’s body and attacks Welt, Tesla and Einstein using the Black orchid. Thanks to Schrodinger’s efforts though, they manage to come out of this alive.

Tesla and Einstein later wake up besides each other in hospital beds, and process everything that’s happened while they were unconscious rather calmly. Some time after that, they create the Anti-entropy organization, with the two of them as its enforcers.

## Manga Story

#### AE Invasion

Tesla is introduced in a meeting at the Anti-Entropy HQ surrounding a Welt Joyce Clone and Cocolia along with Lieserl Albert Einstein and Sin Mal. After Cocolia announces her plan which is to track and capture the 3rd Herrscher, Raiden Mei, Tesla doubts and starts asking about Cocolia's permissions from the Sovereign of Anti-Entropy to her, in which she receives an answer that the Sovereign is the clone right next to Cocolia.

Tesla further doubts as she claims that the Sovereign has hidden his identity for years and that she wouldn't know if he is an impostor or not, until she kneels due to the clone unleashing his powers at her, Einstein and Sin, and is impressed at it, receiving a comment from the clone that he finds her lack of faith "disturbing".

## Game Story

During the battle of Schicksal, Tesla’s part of the ground force, as her task is to hack into the control system and neutralize Schicksal’s terminal defenses. She manages to disable them, and starts looking for clues on Kiana’s whereabouts. She finds out that Kiana’s held hostage in Helheim labs, and Tesla helps Himeko with breaking in. They manage to take care of the Honkai powercore, but while boasting about AE’s superior mechs, Tesla and Himeko get taken out by Rita and Fu Hua.

She’s later found in a pathetic state, tied up and gagged by Rita. Himeko unties her, and they head to the labs. When they get there, they go through Otto’s logs about the Holy blood, and how he discovered the “Spear of destiny”, a solution that can neutralize Honkai. They have the necessary parts to make it, but it had to be tested beforehand. Since there wasn’t anyone else around, Tesla has to be the test subject herself. She injects the Honkai solution in her arm, then the serum. She closes her eyes and waits. After some of the most painfully long seconds in her life, she opens her eyes to see that the experiment was a success. Tesla gives Himeko the serum, then restores the Hyperion enough to make it fly again.

Later on, Tesla joins the Helios team, assembled for finding Kiana. During this time, Tesla acts as Mei’s emotional support. They eventually find out that she’s teleported herself in Nagazora, so they head there and setup camp. Tesla uses a Honkai detector matrix to filter out the background Honkai noise in order to identify Kiana’s Herrscher energy. While exploring the city, they find an AE robot and a passed out Nagazora refugee named Sora, who tells them that the robot’s a gift from her sensei, a person that comes from time to time in the “Roost” and gives them supplies.

When the waters in Nagazora rise and the place becomes flooded with Honkai beasts, Tesla stays behind to protect the roost with her mechs. She gets tied up and knocked out again, this time by Raven. Mei carries her back to the base, where she tells Tesla the plan she has for finding Kiana. The scientist suggests that they should wait for support, but eventually lets Mei go.

After finding the unconscious Kiana, Tesla gets her out of the critical zone by applying emergency treatment. Tesla tells Mei the devastating news: Sirin keeps trying to take over her by activating the core, so her body’s only getting weaker. The heart-breaking truth is that Kiana only has 2 months left. After she wakes up, Einstein video calls them and the 3 of them speak about the threat looming over Nagazora and Kiana’s current situation.

After Mei joins World Serpent, Tesla feels guilty for not reaching out to her, but she quickly regains motivation to research the data more.
