Anya Alstreigm was a female Human from Ou'kizil Earth. In the past she witnessed the assassination of Marianne vi Britannia at the hands of V.V., but became a host to Marianna when she used her Geass to transferred her mind into her's. Her memory was wiped from the incident and has experienced memory losses over the years.
She became the youngest member of the Knights of the Round as the Knight of Sixto personally serve Charlie zi Britannia, the 98th emperor of the Holy Britannian Empire. Anya fought in the 10 Hour War when her homeworld was invaded by the Combine in 2016 ATB (1402 NE) and forced to stand down among the surviving knights ordered by Bismarck Waldstein after the death of the Emperor. She remained a member of the Round under the new puppet state referred to as the Combine Britannian Empire.
Personality and Traits[]
Anya comes off as rather stoic, deadpan and uninterested, similar to a person who suffers from depression. Anya maintains a detached attitude in most situations, usually declaring most things to be boring or dull.
Anya is loyal to Britannia and her Emperor, never questioning or disobeying orders given to her. This loyalty is further shown when Lelouch takes control of the empire after "killing" Charles zi Britannia, Anya sided with Schneizel and his faction, seeing him as the legitimate of the two, even to continue serving the new Combine-Britannian Empire, but only to the Britannian Emperor, yet has also taken in moments to follow the command of the Combine if needed.
On the battlefield she's a deadly and fully capable pilot, showing no mercy to her enemies. Her fighting style reflects her heavily-armored Knightmare; she annihilates her enemies with overwhelming force and doesn't hesitate to kill disabled foes.
Despite her stoic personality and ruthlessness in battle, Anya does have a softer side as she has been shown to be warm and caring towards her friends. She treats Suzaku as an equal despite him being an Eleven, she showed deep sadness to those she grew fond of to be killed, and she appears to like cats. Anya is also rather protective of Nunnally, having served as her personal knight for years, and was shown guarding her during her trips from Ou'kizil Earth on controlled territories, fearing for her safety.
Although Anya seemingly lacks emotions this is not the case, demonstrated during her final battle with Jeremiah Gottwald in which she admits that she "has no memory" with tears in her eyes. She also cried at one point during her time as Nunnally's knight. It would seem that her lack of memories due to Marianne's presence bothers her immensely and her outward personality masks how truly sad she is inside.
After the liberation of Ou'kizil Earth and no longer as a host to Marianne, Anya seems much happier and more open due to her memories having been restored by Jeremiah and now having a more normal and peaceful life.
Biography[]
Early Life[]
Anya went to stay at the Aries Villa as an apprentice for proper etiquette and thence night witnessed Marianne's death that was orchestrated by V.V.. Charles erased many of Anya's memories from knowing any of this incident, specifically those relating to her time spent at Aries. It's also likely that memories of Anya were erased from people who should recognise her, but don't - specifically, Lelouch and Nunnally, and likely also Euphemia and Cornelia. In addition, Marianne used her Geass to transfer her mind into Anya, whose presence can then cause further memory problems when Marianne's consciousness awakens. As a result of that, contact with Lelouch and C.C. can cause a psychic response.
At certain point in her youth, Anya was made the Knight of Six of the Knights of the Round.
