Profile

Archive File 1
Kroos prefers put in the absolute minimum effort in life and on the battlefield, which is reflective of her weapon of choice - a modern crossbow. Despite her lazy work ethic, Kroos has become a skilled marksman and assists her fellow Operators by flanking the enemy and shooting them in the rear with deadly precision.
Archive File 2
Ever since she was a child, Kroos lacked initiative. But during training, she showed an exceptional talent for marksmanship. On the battlefield, she effortlessly locates ideal sniper nests and rains down a hail of precise and deadly fire while backed up by her teammates. Both Fang and Beagle trust Kroos with their lives and she is their support sniper of choice.
Archive File 3
While a member of the garrison, Kroos faced everything with a smile. Upon being infected with Oripathy and suffering discrimination, she had a complete change in mood. After angrily cursing out the other members of the garrison, she along with Fang and Beagle left the garrison for good. In order to find a way for the three of them to survive, Kroos searched far and wide before finally discovering their new home at Rhodes Island.
Archive File 4
The always smiling Kroos often leaves others with an affectionate impression but does so in order to avoid trouble. She enjoys finding quiet places to slack off and take naps. Although she is typically well-mannered and aloof, when something she cares about is on the line her persona shifts into a more ferocious persona. Even when she is talking, she occasionally displays hints of that ferocity. This facade works on Fang, but not Beagle as Kroos cannot withstand her piercing gaze.
