History:

She was born a half a year after Raspberry/Threar was, making her younger. Since Bigwig made her father patrol often, she was left in her mother's paws, who raised her to be a bit flirty and smart, which didn't stick with her very well. When she was old enough, she went around the Warren and met Gilia and Snowdrop. Jealous of Snodrop's white fur, she spent time with Gilia, forming her into a gossiper like her. Even though Gilia was older, Nelda tried to act like the leader, making and calling all the shots. Of course, Gilia only saw her as a good friend, and hadn't thought that Nelda might be hurting other's feelings. When she met Mallow, she immediatly got a crush on him, and made it her goal to try and win him over. When she was older, about four months now, she met Pipkin. Since he was a lot older, it took her more time to actually like him like she liked Mallow. Now, another male that she barely noticed was a young male named Threar, who she immediatly dismissed as a wimp and not good enough for her. Nelda found his sister to be a threat to her looks, but soon dismissed this also, as she didn't seem to have interest in any bucks.

At the age of nine months, she acted even more attracted to Pipkin and Mallow, causing them to impress her in anyway they could. She of course enjoyed this, though Bigwig was annoyed that two of his Owsla were off trying to impress a doe when they should be looking out for enemies. Soon, she began picking on Snowdrop and others, causing Gilia and Aisley to notice. While Gilia was trying to suppress her feelings about her best friend picking on her sister, Aisley tried her best to stop it, resulting in them becoming enemies. At the age of eleven months old now, Nelda was even more rebellious, trying to get her way often. And it was after Hazel, Bigwig, and Hawkbit warned her about the apple orchard that she decided to go and have a few apples. While there, she saw Bark and immediatly ran, thinking that she could kill her. Unwittingly, she strayed across the boundaries and into another Warren's territory.

Aisley, having known what her friend would do, went after her, along with Gilia, who was nervous for her friend. Aisley saw some rabbits heading towards Nelda. She made Gilia stay put while she went to try and persuade Nelda to come back. Nelda refused, saying that she didn't need them. Before Aisley could warn her of the danger, about five bucks surrounded them. They lead them back to their Warren called Warren of The Sharp Claws. Their leader happened to be Raspberry, given the new name Threar. Now seeing where he stood, Nelda immediatly changed her mind about him. She was chosen as a slave, which turned out to be a huge mistake, as she hated work and didn't take the time to learn how to dig. Soon, she was changed to a breeding doe, used to bear kits for the Warren. When Owsla members came to breed with her, she refused, saying that she only wanted Threar. Soon, she was chosen out of many does to become Threar's breeding partner, bearing his kits. She is now awaiting the arrival of her own kits, overjoyed at her success.

Once Aisley was gone, she didn't have someone nagging her, which was fine in her standards. Once she birthed her kits, she was given special privledges, since the kits belonged to the chief. She named then all, except one, whom Threar named Zorn. He was to become the next chief, making Nelda very proud. Then, a rabbit broke in, named Bigwig. Nelda didn't pay him any attention, until he snuck her and half of her kits out, leaving behind Feather, Zorn, and Homba. Now, she's back at Watership Down, and trying to find a new mate. Eventually, after thinking about it, she decided to have Mallow as her mate and father to her kits.
