Leta is a highly intelligent, sarcastic, witty, and cold woman. She’s rather reserved and blunt, making people somewhat intimidated at first glance. She can also be quite playful and somewhat flirty when she wants to be too. Although a bit of a hot head, Leta is a much calmer person than her Ultimis counterpart, Ria. Leta is more of a slow boil to anger instead of it being instantaneous. Leta doesn’t take shit from anyone and will very much tell a person that straight to their face. Despite the somewhat harsh exterior, Leta is a deeply caring and loyal woman. And it shows through her actions. When she loves, she loves with her whole being. Leta will always ensure her friends and loved ones are okay, usually being a voice of reason and a person to go to for advice. Leta is also very perceptive.
Leta is the illegitimate/bastard child of her mother (Rose) and father (Wayon). Wayon was a seasoned lawyer and owned a big farm. Rose was a young woman who worked as a sex worker and the fling with Wayon was supposed to be a one-time thing but an affair quickly blossomed between them. Rose was unaware that Wayon was a married man with two kids, finding out the truth when she shared the news of being pregnant with him.
Wayon wasn’t happy with the news, wanting her to get an abortion. But Rose insisted on keeping the child, at that point, she didn’t care about being with him but she knew she wanted to have this child and nothing was going to stop that. At her refusal, Wayon ended things with her and left Rose to raise the baby alone.
When Leta was born, Rose wanted to provide her with the best life could. Making work as a seamstress and putting her life as a sex worker behind her. It wasn’t much, the money but Leta grew up humbled and appreciated everything her mother did for her. Rose would attempt to date but her number one priority was Leta and it stayed that way. Unfortunately, Rose grew rather sick early in Leta’s life. Wanting to help her mother, Leta took it upon herself to learn how to sew, make clothes, and help her mother’s shop. She also took small jobs from the people in their town to put extra money on the table, to pay for the necessities and her mom’s medicine. It was all for naught though as Rose had succumbed to her illness, Leta waking up to find her mother dead next to her. Leta was only 6. Before she died, Rose had told her daughter who her father was. Even leaving a letter that should anything happen to her, Wayon would at least take his daughter in.
When Wayon got the news of Rose’s death and her wish for him to take his daughter in, he refused at first. Not wanting anything to do with his bastard child, it was his wife, Grace, taking sympathy for the 6-year-old, that convinced her husband to take her. And so he did, albeit grudgingly.
Leta was both scared and somewhat excited to see who her father was and looked like. Even more excited at the fact she had an older sister and brother. She learned very quickly though that her father didn’t exactly care for her, not like how he cared for his other children. Her older brother “Red” was happy to have a little sister to care for and the two hit it off like two peas in a pod. The eldest child and her sister, Mercy was a different case. Mercy didn’t like Leta for the simple fact that she was the bastard child, a walking reminder of her father’s adultery. Leta and Mercy’s relationship was very strained and although the two would have moments where they got along, Mercy was mainly cold and somewhat emotionally abusive to Leta. Letting her know she was a bastard child and that their father never wanted her.
It was very apparent who was the favored daughter and the black sheep daughter.
Grace never held any contempt for Leta, it wasn’t the child’s fault her husband slept with another woman. She treated Leta like she was her own.
Leta also made friends with a girl named Sofia and a boy named Bruno. Sofia’s mother, Isabella was the town's local doctor.
When Leta was 13, Grace died from an illness, Mercy was married and already out of the house, and “Red” was currently enlisting in the Marines. The whole family was there for the funeral, “Red” had to go back to base and Mercy just wanted to go back to her own home. Leta was left with Wayon who had a downwind spiral after his wife’s death, turning to alcohol to soothe his pain. He very quickly became abusive to Leta, physically and mentally. He would give her the lip and nose scar during a drunken rage of his and Leta would find refuge at Isa’s where she treated the wounds. Leta was far too scared to let anyone know of the abuse, instead learning how to avoid her father’s fits. There was one night, when Leta was 16 and her father attempted to molest her, so drunk that all he saw was Rose instead of Leta, and she fought back from his advances. She scratched his face up pretty badly and that led to another drunken rage where he slashed her left eye and whipped her back so badly, it was a miracle she didn’t die from blood loss.
“Red” at the time was returning home for a bit and saw this play out. He beat Wayon to a bloody pulp before taking his baby sister and rushing her to Isa’s. Isa did the best she could, Leta would survive but with the addition of a scar on her left eye and multiple on her back to the ones on her lip and nose.
“Red” would leave Leta in the guardianship of Isa as he had to return to base but he made sure to write letters to his sister and taught her how to shoot guns before he left. Leta would learn all things medical under the mentorship of Isa and would hang out with Sofia and Bruno when she had free time.
Two years later at 18, Leta heard news of her father dying of tuberculosis. The only feeling she felt was a sense of relief, not too upset at his death. During his funeral which she attended out of basic respect, she got back in touch with Mercy. Mercy was 28 and pregnant with her first child, the eldest sibling would share her regrets with her sister. Said she was sorry for how she treated Leta growing up, how she should’ve never blamed her for their father’s adultery, and that she should’ve been a better sister. Mercy was willing to start over with Leta and be the sister she should’ve been and Leta was happy to give Mercy that chance.
Unfortunately, a few months later, Mercy would die in childbirth and Leta’s niece, Chloe, was stillborn. Leta took her sister's and niece's deaths pretty hard. She would write to her brother-in-law, whom she met briefly at Grace’s funeral but was unable to hear back from him. It seemed though that life had it out for her when she turned 19 and learned of her brother’s death from a letter sent by her brother-in-law Sterling.
Leta fell into a deep depression after the news, being the last of her family, she would self-harm but Sofia and Bruno would manage to stop her from doing anything too drastic. It didn’t help that she also faced even more scorn from her town, first, it was about her lack of legitimacy and now it was how she was death incarnate, bringing death to those around her, earning her the nickname La Muerte. It was at that time that she adopted the cold, reserved, and intimidating persona as a way to protect herself from any more hurt. Sterling would visit Leta a few months after “Red’s” death to talk, Leta would humor her brother-in-law and Sterling offered her a position as a nurse in the Marines. He also said she can do work as a spy too. Leta was skeptical at first, asking Sterling why he would offer her that. Sterling would say that he knew Leta wasn’t your average woman and saw her potential, adding that “Red” had asked him to take care of Leta. The young Arkon thought about his offer, seeing a chance to prove not only her worth but her father wrong. Wayon always talked about how Leta was a disappointment of a woman, that she would never aspire to anything, that the only good thing she could do is be an obedient little housewife, and that she was simply an unwanted bastard.
She would join Sterling and, while she mainly worked as a nurse, would work some missions as a spy for Sterling when needed. Leta meets Dempsey after returning from a spy mission Sterling gave her, it was a brief interaction, but Dempsey was immediately taken in by Leta’s fierce attitude and her sass. Leta had to admit that she felt something when they first interacted, but she wouldn’t say it out loud. The second moment between them happened when she treated his wounds, the two conversing and smiling. It ended when they shared a kiss. Dempsey, however, knew Leta was scared to make anything official. He told her he’d be there for her whenever she was ready. Leta appreciated it. She was frightened as this was her first love, her first relationship, so she wanted to take things slow.
When she was 20, she lost Sterling as a casualty of war. The two of them were on a mission to retrieve letters that had information on the Germans. Sterling sacrificed himself so that Leta could get back safely. Leta would make it back with the letters, but she came back empty and nearly broken. She would’ve fallen into another pit of depression if it wasn’t for Tank. He comforted her and gifted her a heart-shaped locket. They decided at that moment to cement their relationship and make it official.
Two days after her 21st birthday, Leta and Dempsey were sent to Northern France on a mission to capture a member of group 935 as an H.V.T. 8 months later, they would form a team with Takeo Masaki and Nikolai Belinski. The 4 of them would join Richtofen on a journey to create a better tomorrow.
