|
For more lore details and analysis related to Reyna, be sure to also check out the VALORANT Lore Wiki's article! VALORANT Lore Wiki: Reyna |
Zyanya Mondragón is a Radiant from Mexico with the power to absorb life energy from the souls of people that she kills. After being affected by a disastrous event involving machines, Mondragón has a strong dislike for technology and humanity, believing herself and her fellow radiants to be the true future for Alpha Earth. Before her time as a VALORANT Protocol agent, she set up the Sanctuary to help people escape from Kingdom and heal, establishing a community there and becoming their protector and avenger.
None of them however hold the same place in her heart as her little sister, Lucia, whose own radiance put her life in jeopardy. Lucia's body required a steady intake of rejuvenating life essence in order to survive and not wither away. After Mondragón's recruitment into VALORANT as its eleventh agent, "Reyna", she was able to work with some of the organization's scientists to set up a procedure that allowed her to transfer some of the life energy she collects into Lucia, keeping her alive. With the process remaining inefficient and a solution to Lucia's fate remaining undiscovered, Reyna continues to hunt down any enemies she finds in her way, gaining more life energy with every kill and more time bought for her sister. Reyna's aggressive, bitter nature however draws concern from some of her fellow agents, and some fear what could end up becoming of someone already willing to tear the world apart for her sister should she be unable to save her.
ZYANYA MONDRAGÓN: Early Life[]
- Mondragón is with her sister, Lucia, during First Light.[1]
- Mondragón sets up the Sanctuary to help people escape from Kingdom activities in the area.[2]
- Mondragón is affected by a disastrous event involving machines, setting her on her path of hatred towards technology.[3]
REYNA: VALORANT agent[]
- Recruited as its eleventh agent.
- Reyna works with Viper to find a solution to prevent Lucia's body from withering.[4]
- The agents are able to set up equipment that allows Reyna to transfer life energy she gains from collecting souls into Lucia. However, this initial process is inefficient as much of the life energy gets lost during transfer.
First ventures into Omega[]
- Reyna is assigned as a member of the Omega Lisbon Data Center strike team.[5]
- She holds off a squad of Force Atlas agents along with Neon while Killjoy obtains information from a terminal.
- She attempts to hunt down and kill Omega Viper after she confronts Reyna, but is prevented from securing the kill by Neon when the team is forced to leave the center immediately.
- After the mission, she contacts Brimstone to express her anger over how little the Protocol knew about the state of affairs on Omega and the doubts over the missions now they knew Omega was using Alpha's radianite for life support systems.[6]
- She demands that Neon now trains with her and tells Brimstone to find out more about Atlas.
Project Landfall[]
- Reyna has a meal with Brimstone, Gekko, and Jett.[7]
- Reyna is contacted by Gekko ahead of his first VALORANT mission about what color to dye his hair.[7]
- Reyna meets up with Gekko in Los Angeles.[8]
- Reyna gives a small report on efforts to cover up Gekko's actions in stealing his creatures from their original location at a K-SEC facility.[9]
- Reyna works together with Killjoy to design a capacitor for Neon to help her control her pack's limiter.[10]
- Reyna advises Brimstone to make sure that Deadlock will not harm Gekko's crew of radivores.[11]
- Reyna is assigned as a member of the Los Angeles strike team.[12]
- Upon reaching the portal room, she is tasked with holding back incoming Kingdom security as other agents work on shutting down the portal.
- After the portal is successfully shut down, a Legion strike team then arrives in Los Angeles on a mission for α-radianite, who Reyna and the rest of the Protocol team are able to repel.[13]
- Reyna reacts to the possible addition of a new recruit with other agents.[14]
Scions of Hourglass[]
- Reyna reacts in horror to the revelation that the Scions of Hourglass has been erasing records of radiants throughout history.[15]
Atlas Incursions[]
Personality[]
| “ |
Reyna takes what she wants when she wants it, no matter who is standing in her way. Savage and almost animalistic, she is not one to hesitate when it comes to eliminating her enemies and getting blood on her hands. She has a strong dislike for technology and thrives on the enemy's misery, and loves to compete with fellow Radiants to see who is the most powerful.
She seems to have a cynical view towards the rest of the world due to the pain that she has experienced in order to survive. However, she acknowledges that her Earth is still her home, and she resolves to defend it even if it means spilling more blood.
Appearance[]
Reyna is often seen with the edges of her long hair dyed purple. Her sharp purple eyes make her menacing to look at, almost giving her the impression of a beast. She is relatively exposed, wearing a purple skin-tight suit that only has one arm covered with the other exposed. Her exposed arm reveals a set of unique tattoos that glows whenever she activates her radiant powers. She wears a pair of purple boots with plating that covers the entirety of her legs, save for her right thigh which is left exposed.
A bright purple glow is always seen on her chest where her heart is located. When she activates her Empress state, her entire body turns into a shade of dark purple, with her eyes, hands, and heart glowing brightest with an amethyst shade.
