Personality And Traits

A passionate, 18-year-old girl, Ricarla "Carla" Borgnine is extremely nice and caring to her companions and comrades, usually helping them with their problems, regardless of how minuscule they may be. Carla looks optimisticly to the future, though her past is what troubles her the most. Born in San Diego, she dreamed of entering the entertainment industry as a singer/dancer, until the Aerogater invasion prevented that realization. She tends to stay close to Yuuki Jaggar, whom she believes saved her life, often confiding with him over the events that have transpired. Recently, she seems to have grown even closer to the stoic Yuuki, calling him "my Darjeeling", in reference to the name of a specific tea, which Yuuki enjoys drinking. In her spare time, Carla enjoys writing song lyrics and watching romantic movies.

Occasionally in Original Generations, during battle, Carla would declare to her opponent "Getto daze!" (I'll get you!), recalling her voice actress' famous role as Satoshi/Ash Ketchum in Pokemon.

Like her Alpha counterparts, Carla is also a Psychodriver, however, both she and Yuuki are unaware of their abilities in the Original Generation games. Whether their abilities will be manifested or not remains to be seen.

History

During the Aerogater invasion, Ricarla Borgnine lost her family in an unexpected attack. However, a man named Yuuki Jaggar rescued her, and from that moment on, she would follow him wherever he would go. After the L5 Campaign, she and Yuuki would enlist into the Divine Crusader Remnants. She would be assigned to Archibald Grims' command and given the rank of Second Lieutenant. Her first major campaign would be Operation Desert Cross, which led to the birth of the Neo Divine Crusaders.

Later on, Carla would participate in Operation Plantagenet against the Inspectors, but the sudden appearance of the Shadow-Mirror forced her and Yuuki to retreat with the Earth Federation Army, after Archibald defected to the Shadow-Mirror and Colonel Van Vat Tran was killed in battle. Carla would defect to the Earth Federation Army and showed the crew of the Kurogane the entrance to the Earth Cradle, liberating the facility. She would continue to fight against the remaining Inspectors, Shadow-Mirror and the Einst. The events of Original Generation 2 concludes with her and Yuuki onboard the Kurogane, alongside Sanger Zonvolt and Ratsel Feinschmecker, retreating into hiding, until they are needed again by the Earth Federation Army.
