Zenia Valov (ゼニア・ヴァロワ, Zenia Varofu) is a playable character in the Arcana Heart series. She is a cool-headed freelance agent with a no-nonsense attitude. She was known as Elfriede Achenbach (エルフリーデ・アッヒェンバッハ, Erufurīde Ahhyenbahha), the older sister of Lieselotte Achenbach, who was separated from her several years ago.

Her Arcana is Almacia, the Arcana of Ice.

Bio

A no-nonsense Agent who came to investigate Angelia's rampage in Kanto. She is actually "Elfriede Achenbach", the older sister of Lieselotte Achenbach, suffering from amnesia after being separated several years back. She isn't the type to linger in one place longer than necessary - living for her next job or role.

Appearance

Zenia resembles Lieselotte, having the same white hair and amber eyes usually shut half way. The tops of her eyes and eyelashes are white, while her hair is long and pulled up into a spiked bun or ponytail.

Her attire consists of a pale blue sleeve-less shirt worn with a loose red tie and a short black form-fit skirt with slits going up the corners. She also wears a pair of sheer black tights, a blue finger-less glove, a gold and red gauntlet, and a black trench coat with the right sleeve cut out. White metal armor covers her feet with black and gold leg ornaments.

Personality

Zenia is a stoic and calm woman who is naturally very quiet. When she speaks, she avoids wasting time or words by cutting to the point and ending it there. She can be cold towards others at first, but genuinely doesn't mean any harm - or care if someone takes offense. She is also very efficient when it comes to completing tasks.

However, Zenia also has a softer nature. She is very gentle and kind with children and her little sister, and will do whatever she asks of her. She also adores stuffed animals and cookies.

There are a few moments where she can be considered cruel in a similar vain to her little sister, Lieselotte. This is shown when she attempted to kill Kira and Catherine, despite both of them being children and the latter being one of Petra's allies, for entering a Drexler Institute Laboratory without permission and refused to let them go until she eliminated them or until she is convinced to back down, in which the latter option was fortunately achieved by Mei Ling and Mei-Fang.
