Biography
Original Timeline
Hildegard von Krone (Japanese: ヒルデガルド・フォン・クローネ, German: Hirudegarudo fon Kurōne) was a female human born as the daughter of the King of Wolfkrone that was a European kingdom hidden within the Holy Roman Empire. Her father was noted for being a stoic man but one with a kind heart and said to be fair in his dealings. However, during the destructive rain of the Evil Seed, he came to lose his sanity and was transformed into a more animalistic state. Upon falling into madness, the king was sentenced to live out the rest of his days in an isolated chamber that was located at the top of the Wolfkrone castle tower. With the king driven insane, the kingdom turned to the remaining members of the royal family for leadership with Hilde being forced to take the throne despite her young age. She was able to gather allies and her powerbase allowing her to resist the forces of the Azure Knight. As Hilde devoted much of her youth to protecting and guiding Wolfkrone, she didn’t experience a true childhood, and was forced to handle the burdens of adulthood. Hilde disciplined herself, becoming emotionally and physically stronger over the passing years and leading her country on the front lines of the battlefield. One day, Hilde learned that Soul Edge was slowly gaining power, and prepared her forces for battle. In the following days, Hilde and her soldiers came to the assistance of a troop of mercenaries traveling through Wolfkrone. Most of the mercenaries’ numbers had dwindled after they were attacked by the inhabitants of the ruined castle. When Hilde and her army traveled out to defeat Soul Edge, they were greeted by a cheering crowd.
Hilde's army proudly triumphed in the battle against the cursed sword; destroying the wretched Soul Edge before the justice of the holy sword, Soul Calibur, wielded by her friend, Siegfried. However, even after Nightmare's destruction, Hilde still found her kingdom to be in turmoil, tragically drained of the Wolfkrone legacy, and poisoned by the terrors of the past Azure Knight. Despite this, Hilde still held on to the leadership born from her blood, and vowed to restore her homeland at all costs. Ordering her people to depart from the ruins, the determined princess traveled from nation to nation, negotiating land for the ones who followed her as she continued searching for locations to resettle. As she and her republic became settled, Hilde received a distasteful message from Siegfried, being informed that a number of malfested planned to bring war upon her throne. Refusing to fall, Hilde immediately assembled her troops alongside Siegfried, anxious to put an end to the demonic evil and finally bring peace upon Wolfkrone. Deep within her soul, Hilde knew that she may not live to witness her subjects' safe return home. However, her two children might.
