"The past, present, and future are the same equation for all people and all things."

―Tekla

A resistance fighter who calculates everything by the numbers, Tekla is obsessed with mathematical equations and calculations. She sees hidden connections and possibilities everywhere, causing her to scribble notes constantly. 

The New Order

Tekla is a female resistance fighter who appears in the Fergus' Timeline who is obsessed with calculations and the infinite probabilities of the universe. Her philosophy includes determinism, materialism, and naturalism on which her character is based.

She is an overactive genius whose every waking thought is occupied with statistics and equations, to better predict the actions and reactions of events, to help combat the Nazis. While she initially insults B.J. whenever he approaches her, Tekla eventually warms up to him when he teaches her how to use firearms and even refers to B.J. as her first friend.

Tekla was fatally wounded during Frau Engel's raid of the Kreisau Circle's base of operations while helping B.J. reach Fergus and Caroline in the hangar after she had already gained a literal pile of dead Nazis before that. After confirming she had accepted her fate she kicks the chair keeping the door to her room sealed off taking two of Engel's soldiers with her before being gunned down.

Trivia

• Just as the character 'J' is a tribute to the pop-culture icon Jimi Hendrix, Tekla is also a personification of a famous person--Nikola Tesla--and is an homage to him. 
• She is the one of the two NPCs that use 1946 version Handgun in 1960 timeline, the other being Frau Engel.
• It is possible to see in her room the IDKFA code from another Id software game, DOOM as an easter egg.
