Barkeep's daughter is an unnamed deuteragonist of the video game Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies. She is a teenage girl who works at her father's bar in San Salvacion and is secretly a member of the resistance against Erusean occupation.
Biography[]
The girl worked at her father's Sky Kid bar in San Salvacion's capital as a waitress. When the city was occupied by Erusean forces, she joined the partisan movement alongside her father, but kept working at the bar to keep an eye on Erusea's elite Yellow Squadron, who often gathered there. A certain boy who had lost his family thanks to Yellow Squadron's leader also worked at the bar and had a crush on the barkeep's daughter. One day, he was found by the resistance members, who wanted to interrogate him due to him fraternizing with the Yellow Squadron members, but the girl protected him due to his tender age, and the two eventually became friends.
While it seemed as if the barkeeper's daughter looked forward to Erusean forces fleeing the city, she, in fact, harbored a crush on Yellow 13, and was jealous of his wingman, Yellow 4. One day, before ISAF's raid on Stonehenge, she bombed the runway at the Yellow Squadron's base as part of a guerrila operation. Yellow 4's plane was badly damaged, but she nevertheless went into battle and was shot down by Mobius 1.
Barkeep's daughter's luck ran out when she was caught trying to sabotage another crucial object. While fleeing, she was seen and cornered by Yellow 13. This time, the orphan boy came to the girl's help, shielding her from the Erusean pilot and telling him to get out of their town. Yellow 13 let the children go and never spoke of the incident with anyone.
After San Salvacion was liberated, barkeep's daughter and the boy followed the retreating Erusean forces. The two witnessed Yellow Squadron's final fight against Mobius 1, as well as Yellow 4's handkerchief, which 13 kept after her death, falling from the sky. The children buried it in the woods as tribute to the fallen pilot. What happened to the barkeep's daughter after this remains unknown.
Appearance[]
The barkeep's daughter has short blonde hair and brown eyes. She wears a red tunic with a black cross sewn on the chest, black pants and white shoes.

~ Barkeep's daughter on the Erusean soldiers' fate. |
The barkeep's daughter refused to allow Erusea to occupy San Salvacion, and fought for her country's freedom as a member of the resistance in spite of the danger it posed to her. She seemed to be merciful even towards the Erusean sympathizers, as she protected the boy who befriended Yellow 13 from interrogation, and even befriended him herself.
In spite of those positive qualities, the girl had a selfish side to her as well. She had a crush on Yellow 13, despite him being a member of the enemy's forces, and held a grudge towards his wingman despite there being no evidence she was romantically involved with her lead. It's even implied that her bombing the airfield was partially motivated by the desire to get Yellow 4 out of the picture. In spite of this, she appeared to feel shame over 13 calling her actions "cowardly sabotage", showing that she wasn't above doubting her actions.
