Background / History

Theresa received Schicksal funding to complete St. Freya Academy in the Far East. Although she disagreed with many of Otto’s actions, she could not deny his personal support for her and the academy. Her stated aim was to create a place where Valkyries could protect themselves and enjoy ordinary lives rather than exist solely as weapons against Honkai. 46 147

Before becoming St. Freya’s director, Theresa was an S-rank Valkyrie. She remained invested in promising Valkyries—especially members of the Saniat family such as Anna—and saw Anna as a potential future S-rank. 66

During the aftermath of Sirin’s defeat, Theresa arrived by battleship to rescue Siegfried and Kiana from surrounding Honkai Beasts. She prioritized Kiana’s safety, though Judah’s full power could not be freely used because of its lethal effect on Fusion Warriors. 54

Theresa later took responsibility for Kiana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya after the Third Honkai Outbreak. She placed Kiana at St. Freya to train toward A-rank Valkyrie status, emphasizing that academic performance mattered alongside combat ability. 97 99

As more Herrschers joined St. Freya, Theresa repeatedly objected to the academy being called a “Herrscher Academy.” Nevertheless, she accepted Wendy, Anna, and Chen Tianwu despite their Herrscher status, choosing containment, guidance, and coexistence over immediate hostility. 158 226 228

Otto arranged Theresa’s engagement to Zhang Wei as part of a deal with him. Theresa later confronted Zhang Wei over the engagement and the appearance of Yuxia, a hostile parallel-world Theresa clone. 137 138

After Otto’s departure, Theresa succeeded him as Schicksal’s Bishop. The workload exhausted her, leaving her nostalgic for her earlier days as St. Freya’s director. 314

Theresa subsequently became the Herrscher of Law when the previous Law Herrscher’s consciousness seized her body. The Law Herrscher erected a barrier over St. Freya and suppressed Honkai-based power, but Theresa’s consciousness was restored after her allies intervened. 355 356

Appearance

Theresa has a notably small, childlike build and youthful voice despite being over forty years old. Her unchanged appearance is attributed to her long-lived Fusion Warrior nature. 66 266

  • Often mistaken for a child because of her height and youthful appearance. 66 266
  • Has white hair; her appearance closely resembles several parallel-world Theresa variants. 57 138
  • Later grows taller and develops a more mature figure after becoming Schicksal’s Bishop. 314
  • Frequently has visible dark circles beneath her eyes while managing Schicksal. 314 376

Personality

Theresa is compassionate and protective, particularly toward Kiana and other young Valkyries. She is willing to shelter Herrschers at St. Freya when they demonstrate no desire to harm humanity, even when doing so creates substantial risk and administrative strain. 55 158 226 228

She values a normal, secure upbringing for Valkyries and dislikes treating students as disposable combat assets. This ideal conflicts with the reality of St. Freya becoming home to numerous Herrschers and repeated Honkai crises. 147 158

Despite her position, Theresa is easily flustered when her private habits are exposed. She secretly reads manga and slacks off in her office, becoming furious when Zhang Wei publicizes the habit. 66 82

When provoked or when those under her care are threatened, Theresa becomes forceful and frighteningly direct. Her anger at a Dominance Herrscher mocking St. Freya as a “Herrscher Academy” culminated in her smashing the captured doll into scrap with Judah. 318

Abilities & Skills

Fusion Warrior Physiology

Theresa possesses Vishnu factors and an artificial Honkai-collapse body, giving her exceptional strength and endurance.

  • Can wield and fight with Judah without being hindered by its weight. 66
  • Retains significant physical power even without activating her artificial Honkai-collapse state. 261
  • Can enlarge her body through induced Honkai collapse, though she cannot perfectly control the process and it carries risks. 258
  • Judah’s full power is dangerous to Fusion Warriors, limiting its use around them. 54

Herrscher of Law Authority

As the Herrscher of Law, Theresa can suppress Honkai-derived power and impose an energy-nullifying field.

  • Generates golden gears and a barrier that envelops St. Freya. 355
  • Shuts down Honkai-related equipment within the affected area. 355
  • Weakens other Herrschers’ power; some report being reduced to roughly one-tenth of their normal output. 355
  • The original Law Herrscher consciousness initially controlled her body; Theresa could not resist it alone. 355 356

  • Recruits faculty and oversees St. Freya’s construction and operation. 46 48

Equipment / Weapons / Items

  • Bitter melon juice — Her preferred drink, often associated with moments of stress or contemplation. 138 155

Relationships

  • Otto Apocalypse — Her grandfather and Schicksal’s former Bishop. He financially supported St. Freya and arranged her engagement to Zhang Wei, but Theresa disapproved of many of his actions. 46 137
  • Zhang Wei — Her fiancé. Their relationship begins through Otto’s arrangement and develops amid Theresa’s embarrassment, teasing, and concern over his ties to Kiana and other Theresa variants. 137 138 262
  • Kiana Kaslana — Her grandniece and foremost concern. Theresa rescues, enrolls, scolds, and encourages Kiana, while remaining deeply invested in her safety and growth. 54 99 262 303
  • Siegfried Kaslana — Kiana’s father and a close associate with whom Theresa shares responsibility for Kiana’s future. Their interactions are often argumentative and playful. 55 314
  • Himeko Murata — Friend and colleague at St. Freya. Theresa knows Himeko’s medical condition and is shocked to discover she is alive after believing her dead. 149 301
  • Cecilia Schariac — Close friend and Kiana’s mother. Theresa cared for Cecilia’s relatives, including Anna, and is overwhelmed by Cecilia’s unexpected return. 66 301
  • Anna Schariac — A younger Saniat relative whom Theresa supports and later invites to St. Freya after Anna becomes a Herrscher. 66 226
  • Wendy — A Herrscher whom Theresa accepts into St. Freya after Wendy’s defeat, despite her frustration at the academy’s reputation. 155 158
  • Under the Moon — A parallel-world Theresa variant. Their resemblance and Under the Moon’s more developed appearance make Theresa self-conscious and competitive. 57 260 262
  • Yuxia — A Theresa clone from another world who initially intends to eliminate Theresa. 138
