Zdislava Sládková

Born to a military family, Slavdkova attended the University of Brno where she graduated with a degree in psychology and history. She worked as an assistant professor at the university for a few years but she became involved with anti-government activists. In 1980 she was accused of giving state secrets to foreign intelligence agents after meeting with an Austrian pro-democracy NGO in Vienna, and was sentenced to a ten year sentence in a woman's jail. During the war the jail was opened when approaching NATO forces overcame the town where it was located. She worked as an interpreter with German forces for a while but when the unit was destroyed by Marauders she changed sides. She soon became the leader of the Marauder gang and led them in battle against former Czech forces. She has eventually risen to become the leader of a group of Marauders made up of deserters from multiple armies, based near the ruined town of Chotebor. Still clinging to her pro-democracy ideals, she has grouped her men under the banner of the Bohemian Autonomous Defence Force and claims that she intends to establish a western-style democracy in the territory under her control, even though the soldiers under her have no goals to do anything other than pillage.

Zdislava calls herself The Protector. She is a tall, well-built woman with broad shoulders with light blue eyes and light brown hair. She seems older than her late twenties, mostly due to the tough time she experienced in prison. She wears a West German military uniform with a Czech forage cap and carries an assault rifle. She is a chain smoker.
