Born in Nicosia, Cyprus. Galanos was thrust into the ethnic tensions on Cyprus from an early age when her family lost their homes during widespread clashes between Turkish and Greek rioters. The Galanos family, while never physically harmed by the tensions, continued to suffer difficult times for many years due to the unrest. Eventually, they fled the city, and Galanos’ father, an ex-ELDYK sniper, taught her his trade in extended hunting trips through the center of the island. Galanos attempted to join the [Greek MYK forces](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater\_Demolition\_Command#:\~:text=The%20Underwater%20Demolition%20Command%20(Greek,the%20Greek%20Navy%27s%20elite)but was denied due to her gender. Instead, she joined the civilian police force and quickly rose to prominence as a sniper with a reputation for precise shooting in less than optimal conditions which led her to her recruitment into the Hellenic Force.

I mean it’s pretty cool and all, but she wasnt supposed to be born during the intercommuncal violence, considering she is supposed to be 42 years old (1982 ). It’s a detail Ubisoft missed.

    Ah yes, the famous snipers of Cypriot civilian police force. It’s a skill they develop to target criminals from a distance so that they don’t have to leave their air-conditioned rooms and cold frappes.

  2. Also assuming she is Greek born on the island. Eldyk officers don’t spend more than 2 years here so it is impossible for her to “grow up hunting on the island”. Imagine hunting jikles with a sniper and not a sheppeto
