Name: Valechka Borisovna Borisenko
Age: 14
Appearance:Personality: In spite of her small, timid, and otherwise demure outer appearance and cutesy style of dress, Valechka has a very crude, crass, and frank nature. Owing perhaps to a rough childhood, Valechka shields herself with a very dark sense of humor. She is quiet when not in company, preferring her own thoughts. However, when there is attention on her, she will typically act in an incredibly boisterous, loudmouthed manner. She will shout and use several strings of swear-words in both the local tongue and her own. She dresses feminine for the sake of others around her, however, is much more comfortable wearing track suits. Her personality is otherwise consistent. She will laugh at a friend, she will laugh at a foe, she will laugh in the face of death, then call it a bad word.
As far as her likes go, Valechka is fairly simple. Meat and potatoes, some may describe her taste. She likes simple things and tends not to waver far from the basics. Everything else is superfluous, effort to be saved for another, colder day. Valechka considers climates over ten degrees warmer than a Siberian "warm" season to be comfortable, and those living in those areas to be lazy. She prides herself as a hard worker, and in addition, prides her country and its people.
Valechka refers to herself in third person.
History: Valechka was raised in the cold climate in one of the northernmost regions of Siberia near the foot of the Ural mountains. She was born and raised in a small farming village originally constructed as part of Lenin's Five-Year Plan. The village's main export was vodka, and a majority of the townspeople had been potato farmers for several generations. There, she lived with her grandmother. Valechka's parents had died in winter while Valechka was very young, trying to find food for her to eat. Valechka's grandmother was a kind, caring person, teaching Valechka just about all that she knew.
The girl's childhood was not easy. At a young age, Valechka had to work tending her family's farm, others around her village far too busy making their own living to help the young girl. However, as she grew older, her body had gotten stronger. She was taught basic survival skills along with whatever her grandmother knew and had the tools to teach her. Valechka was taught how to be a proper Slavic wife. She was taught to cook and how to clean among other things. All the while, her grandmother imparted strong life lessons for the young Valechka often in the form of heavy beatings whenever she disobeyed.
When Valechka received the invitation to Four Winds in the mail, she wasn't too sure how to react. Her grandmother, however, not wanting Valechka to stay in the farm forever, egged her onto going to this strange school. Valechka reluctantly agreed. She packed her belongings, and after some final parting words of advice, Valechka left home.
Skills: Valechka is a decent marksman. She can fire a mosin nagant rifle up to four hundred meters and accurately hit her target before quickly moving onto the next one which may be at an equal range away. Due to her upbringing, Valechka is incredibly acclimated to cooler climates, able to shrug off subzero temperatures as if they were nothing, even if she could some how shut off her power
(This is hypothetical, Valechka cannot turn off her power). She knows how and when to grow good potato crops and in what kind of soil. She can clean a small apartment in less than an hour. Also makes very good borsch.
Abilities: Valechka's abilities manifest primarily in her innate, ursine physiology. It was something she had from birth and nothing she had ever considered unusual, in spite of everybody else in the village, her parents and grandparents included, having normal human physiology. Her body is lithe and so her strength seems out of place. Valechka possesses strength far beyond that of the average human. Her hearing and smelling abilities are also remarkable, at least moreso than the average person's. Her reflexes are good enough to catch salmon jumping upstream out of the river, not that she'd ever need to. In short,
she can do anything a bear can do.Inventory: Ten potatoes, a toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, an extra set of frilly clothes, white tape.
