“ Beatrice "Auntie" Kaplan, I know her as Petty Officer Kaplan. She killed a guy during basic because he called her "Auntie". You kill a guy for giving you a nickname and then you make everyone call you that, so they never forget what happens to people who mess you? She's petty. And dangerous. ”
Beatrice "Auntie" Kaplan, formerly known as "Petty Officer Kaplan", is a former True Sons Officer-turned-Black Tusk Operative and one of Stovepipe's four lieutenants in the Reign of Fire season. Kaplan became known for killing another soldier during basic training for giving her the nickname "Auntie" and making everyone else call her that to remind them of what happens to people who mess with her.
Profile[]
Beatrice "Auntie" Kaplan looks sweet and unassuming. She used to joke about growing up to be an old cat lady but never wanted to have kids. During basic training, at their first target practice, a new recruit gave her the nickname "Auntie". She subsequently killed the new recruit in a "reloading accident". After the incident, she insisted everyone call her “Auntie" so they would remember the recruit and never forget how easy it is to die in a freak accident. She was thrilled to learn that the True Sons had joined Black Tusk and she could go by her nickname instead of "Petty Officer Kaplan".
History[]
Kaplan used to be in the Army. She killed a soldier during basic training for calling Auntie and later made everyone call her that nickname as a way to remind them what happens if they miss with her.
Like many former JTF, Auntie joined the True Sons. When the True Sons restored their alliance with Black Tusk, Auntie was put with Zachary "Stovepipe" Beattie as one of his lieutenants. Auntie and her unit made their to Washington, D.C. and was ordered by General Anderson to recon Division's controlled areas and report back. Auntie shared her concerns about Lieutenant Bantam to the General. However, despite proven to be harmless, she kept tabs on the Lieutenant just in case.
Auntie also asked General Anderson to meet with Mort "Cursed" Kellogg in person as she wanted to root out traitors. However, she was denied and informed Cursed about it. Despite the setback, she had a conversation with him where they shared a number of kills they made with Auntie making 371 kills.
Eventually, Auntie was located at Roosevelt Island after the Division scoured Foggy Bottom. Despite the equipment and her fellow True Sons and Black Tusk forces, the agents gunned her down.
