Profile
Frostleaf is a former Columbian Junior Army soldier, 'retired' after her unit was destroyed. Came into contact with Rhodes Island later as a mercenary, before officially joining following a period of collaboration with the company.
Extensive combat experience and undeniably skilled, Frostleaf is an excellent asset to Rhodes Island.
Clinical Analysis
Imaging tests on this Operator showed blurry internal organs with clearly visible dark spots. Unusually high concentrations of Originium particles were present in her circulatory system, indicating infection and confirming her as Infected at this stage.
[Cell-Originium Assimilation] 16%
The infection has advanced to mid-stage. Crystal formations are clearly visible on the operator's arms.
[Blood Originium-Crystal Density] 0.35u/L
Likely owing to her previous affiliation, Frostleaf's Oripathy had spread to such a degree by the time she joined Rhodes Island that I could not be optimistic about her chances. However, her current course of treatment has put her in a relatively stable condition. Hooray. Hooray.

Frostleaf is something of a loner. One of our most combat experienced operators.
She dresses in hip, stylish outfits and enjoys listening to music alone in a quiet corner.
Archive File 2
Frostleaf is one of the most experienced combatants in the entire company. The battlefield is like her own backyard.
That is not something to be terribly cheered about though, because it means, given her age, she never had a normal childhood.
Not to mention, given Columbia's clashes with neighboring countries in the past decade and frequent skirmishes besides, one can easily imagine what kind of life Frostleaf has led.
Older operators still remember when Frostleaf first arrived, and report that she's a lot more outgoing now than she was then.
Archive File 3
Rhodes Island recruited Frostleaf back when she was a mercenary, but upon her official admission, Dr. Kal'tsit ordered her to take only one mission--convalescing as a patient.
That presented a huge quandary, since Frostleaf up to this point had known nothing but war.
Fortunately, with help from Rhodes Island's diverse population, Frostleaf gradually learned to enjoy life outside combat, which has opened her eyes to a whole new world.
Archive File 4
After a considerable period of treatment and adapting to a life off the battlefield, Frostleaf thought she would return again to the world of war. She sought clearance from Dr. Kal'tsit but was denied a full release. Instead, Kal'tsit granted her permission for just one excursion.
Frostleaf confidently strode into battle, eager to fight again, only to discover how difficult it had become for her to swing a weapon at an enemy. She later confessed that she was overwhelmed by the memory of her struggles in the Junior Army, something she thought she had completely left behind her.
She audibly wept on the field that day.
From then on, Frostleaf slowly turned into what she is now: a music lover, a fashionista, and a bit of a loner.

My Backup Mixtape No. 2 Track List
Total Length: 36:00
Side A
1. Close Your Eyes, The Easy Raindrops (3:27)
2. Tiptoe Through Siesta, Cape Pianist (3:20)
3. Green Grapefruit, The Easy Raindrops (3:11)
(A round-looking fruit is drawn next to it)
4. The Night Whistles By, Max D.C. Children's Choir (3:30)
(A note is written in a differently-colored pen: 'A song I listened to as a kid, took a while to find')
5. A Story of Underground Tunnels and Falling Corn, Beth Grande (4:32)
(Beneath the comma is a pair of closed eyes)
Side B
1. The Disaster I'm In, The Nonbelievers (5:31)
(A red heart is drawn next to this)
2. Declared Innocent, The Fire Axes (4:37)
3. ■■■■■■, ■■■■■■ (■:■■)
(Heavily scribbled out, along with a note written in another color: 'The beat's all wrong. Will get hurt if listened in battle.')
(There's an arrow pointing to another line of text below that reads 'Storm Riders, The Fire Axes (4:00)')
4. Taking Back My Tears, Fantasy Realm (3:30)
This is the second backup tape I've made. The first wouldn't play after being soaked.
While re-recording, I swapped out one song on Side B that didn't fit. It had a weird beat, which messes up my breathing whenever I swung my axe to it.
But switching it out left a little gap in the mixtape, and the total playtime went down by 22 seconds. It wasn't seamless anymore.
While worrying about it, I heard the sound of someone practicing an instrument in the dorms. The sound of the metronome was really nice.
So I pressed record in the hallway and filled those 22 seconds with the ticking of the metronome.
I still don't know who was practicing that day, but I'm really grateful to them.
I know how to write a lot of words now, so I can write all these things down.
The nice lady in Medical also encouraged me to write my feelings down more often, but I don't know what words to use to capture my ever-changing mood.
Just like how every tape has a side A and a side B, our feelings also have sides, and they're always pulsing and changing.
I like the rhythm when my feelings pulse. Like a drumbeat. Like a metronome swinging from side to side.
I like a calm rhythm when I'm alone, and an intense one when I'm on a mission. These rhythms are my own, and they won't ever end.
There's no room left to write on this paper, so I'll leave it at that.

- Happy birthday, Doctor. Here's a charm I made for you. Inside it are some lyrics I extracted from a song, the one I always listen to when I'm feeling down. I hope it'll protect you from any hurt enemies might deal you. Oh, it's coming on too heavy? Not at all. Life's the most important thing, trust me on that.
- Anniversary Celebration
- You don't need to be too worried. My past experiences weren't all bad. They taught me what living wrongly looked like. And my time at Rhodes Island has made me want to stick even harder with this all-new outlook, to explore even more unknown places across the lands. Maybe you'd wanna come with me, Doctor.
