Appearance

Height: 5’3”
Weight: 120 lbs
Build: Athletic
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Auburn
Skin Tone: Olive
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: Some of both
Personal Style: Nik likes to dress for comfort. A pair of jeans, a tee and well worn boots. She’s not color blind per se. That would be deadly in her line of work. But she does have trouble with mix matching her colors so she sticks with simple combos and solid color clothing articles. She enjoys t-shirts with quirky text and will wear those often. She also likes funny and quirky socks and underwear. If there are lady boxers out there declaring “I donut care!” she’ll be all over those. As a UK native she has an extensive collection of scarves.

Psychology

Calm * Withdrawn * Disciplined * Guarded * Persevering * Reserved

Sexuality: Fluid, though her conscious choice always favors the ladies
Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Nik is a calm person. The kind of calm that others often might mistake for apathy or being a pushover. Where in fact she is a person that can truly check her emotions when dealing with various situations and avoid going into extremes. The kind of calmness that, in her opinion, only a Libra can possess. That is not to say that Libras cannot show extreme emotions. Not at all. They can and they do. And when they do, it’s triple the intensity of any other person displaying an extreme emotion. It helps that she was raised within the philosophy of Eastern martial arts. She learned the value of discipline early on and has never once thought of it as restricting. She is also very careful. With almost everything. Her words, her actions, her interactions with others. And naturally her work. She is slow to engage with others, but once she gets close to you, truly and really, that’s it. You have a friend for life and beyond.

From another’s perspective she can be viewed as shy and withdrawn. But if one possesses the patience to break through her protective walls they will discover a very warm and engaging person in Z. Highly intelligent and very well read, but never arrogant with it. Only eager to share her knowledge and engage in a stimulating conversation.

She can be a bit of an airhead whenever she’s working on an R&D project and will readily ignore people in her vicinity as if they weren’t even there. When called on it, she’s likely to act embarrassed.

Nik has a kinky side to her that very few people ever get to witness. Although sometimes, in unguarded moments, hints might appear here with certain references she makes in conversation. Coupled with a somewhat wicked sense of humor.

Habits: Sticks her tongue out when performing intricate tasks; Runs the tops of her nails/fingers over her lower lip when deep in thought
Hobbies: Origami; Rock Balancing
Fears:

• Falling
• Cephalopods
• Apiphobia - bees

Likes:

• All things Japanese with very few exceptions
• Anne Rice
• Ethiopian Cuisine
• Dancing
• Cooking
• Dimples
• Baseball even though she’s English
• Snuggling in front of the fireplace during winter
• Choppers /the ones you ride on not fly on/
• People with integrity
• Singing
• Lefties
• Nipple piercings
• Musicals

Dislikes:

• Hypocrisy
• Dill
• Smoking
• Alcohol and excessive drinking

History

Why did you want to become an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.?: As one who lost her parents to terrorism Z is always looking for better ways an venues to combat this most misguided among human deeds. After the Battle of New York and all that S.H.I.E.L.D. has done to protect the Earth and its inhabitants from all the alien bullies, Nik believes it is the best place for her to continue on her mission to prevent people from suffering the fate of her parents and all the victims of the London bombings.

General History: Born to an Iranian mother and a Bulgarian father Z was a frail, sickly kid. Both her parents worked day and night to provide for their child the necessary health care. After years of going to doctors and numerous tests that couldn’t tell them what was wrong with their daughter, Z’s mom and dad turned to alternative medicine for answers. They took her to all kinds of practitioners, until it was suggested to them that they enroll her in chi gung classes and encouraged meditating and similar practices.

And so began little Z’s adventure into the world of Eastern martial arts. She found herself like fish in water. The classes not only lifted her spirits and improved her overall health condition, but proved to be as simple to the child as breathing. She possessed a more than average natural talent for picking up techniques and moves and soared through the ranks fast.

Seeing their child improve almost miraculously showing a bright and cheery side to her that was previously squashed by her poor health, her mum Mahmonir and her dad Stoyan chose to encourage Z’s love of Eastern martial arts so they enrolled her in Aikido classes coupled with the chi gung ones. The family was finally happy and worry free.

But alas. It was not to be.

Misfortune struck on July 7, 2005, when Z was but nine years old. While the little girl was safe at school, her parents were riding the Tube to work when the London bombings have occurred, robbing her of both her parents, as both Mahmonir and Stoyan had been among the victims.

After the death of her parents Zoya came to live with her legal guardians, Haruhito and Midori Hideyoshi. Close friends to Z’s family as well as proprietors of the Aikido dojo where the little girl trained. At only nine Nik was crushed by the loss of her parents. Being taken in by her beloved sensei and living together with their daughter and fellow aikidoka, Miyaki, helped some, but the bright and cheerful girl from the before was gone!

At the age of sixteen Z joined the British Army with the sole purpose to become an explosive technician so that what happened to her parents and her would never happen to anyone else. She trained hard and studied harder to obtain her degrees in engineering and her PhD in Explosive Engineering and devoted her life to the Corps of Royal Engineers working as a bomb disposal expert in finding and dismantling of explosive ordnances. But that was not enough! She worked tirelessly to research and develop better ways of ordnance disposal. Be it bomb disposal robots, better bomb suits, and explosive ordnance chemical trail sniffers. You name it, she’s worked on it.

👋 Dominika Novikova 👋
"I like her sense of humor."
Nik can't help but feel some form of unconscious resentment toward Novi. It's probably the Russian connection. There's a lot of history between Bulgaria and Russia that is not always readily know by most people. Still Nik respects Novi for her achievements and what she's accomplished and actively works to not allow the 'Russian connection' to sour any future relationship they may have.

---

💛💙 Niah Bautista 💛💙
"You know that bright and cheery girl that just won't leave the shy, loner one alone until they've become friends."
Niah was the one person in Sci-Tech to really take an interest in Nik. She'd always be careful and friendly and try to talk to her even seeing how shy and withdrawn Nik can be. Niah didn't give up and little by little the two bonded over science first. Then over their love for cooking and restouranting. And eventually even over the loss of loved ones to violence.

---

💘 Teresa Sparks 💘
"You know that one straight girl you absolutely do not want to be crushing on!"
For Z Tess is that one straight girl she knows she should stay away from, because if she doesn't, she risks heartbreak. And, yes, she knows no one really calls her 'Tess', but that's what Z calls her in her mind. Either because she wants to be someone special to Teresa or simply because she doesn't feel Terry suits her well. Nik will usually avoid Tess in fear of her feelings showing. And whenever she's unable to avoid Tess she'll go even more shy than usual, fumble with her 'hello' and promptly run away the first chance she gets. Because being near those hazel eyes is just dangerous! Especially coupled with that brain of hers. Smart women are extra hot!

---

🌓 Arcturus Hale 🌓
"I think he's family...?"
Even though he's Niah's friend Nik doesn't interact with Acr much and doesn't know him well. She kinda thinks he might be gay, but is not certain. Her gaydar is so very busted :'( It's just some feeling she gets off of him whenever their paths intersect.

---

♨️ Tinley Abercrombie ♨️
"I'd be ecstatic about another bike girl like me if it wasn't for how Tinley is."
Tinley makes Nik tense and on edge and not in a good way. While she can respect her achievements and capabilities, she just can't get past the attitude.

---

👋 Maria Smith 👋
"The Olimpian...?"
Nik doesn't know her well. Only that her hand to hand skills are top notch.

---

👋 Teig Kelley 👋
"Never call him Mr. T!"
Muay Thai is brutal and Teig knows how to use it well.

---

👋 Emilia-Marie Rivera 👋
"The Irish halfpint. What? She's taller than me! No way!"
Em and Z have sparred a couple of times. Those staves are lethal in the hands of a trained user. What's more interesting is the book thing. Z has spotted her a few times stashed in a corner reading a book. And not an e-book either. The real McCoy, baperback. Which is rare these days. So many things go digital. And there's just something special about reading a paberback book. For Nik reading digital messes with her immersion. She's always conscious of the page turning button press or finger slide. On the other hand she barely registers turning the page of a paberback book. It's almost like the pages turn themselves.

---

💛 Griffin Lee 💛
"Indian cuisine is divine! Grif's just got kiddy taste buds. His karaoke skills are the dog's bollocks though!"
Anyone who enjoys singing is okay in Z's book. And Grif's passion for karaoke makes him extra cool, since it's such a Japanese thing and Z loves all things Japanese. It's nice to know Z can let loose her passion for singing without apprehension whenever she's with Grif and his karaoke machine. Now if only something could be done about his poor tastes in food.

---

💛 Sami Rhodes 💛
"You know how when you're depressed all you wanna do is stuff your mug into a pint of Häagen-Dazs. Well no more! Not when Sami is around!"
Sami is one third of the Cooking Squad, together with Niah and Z. No one really knows what will come out of the kitchen when these three have taken residence in there. What you do know is, it'll be finger licking delicious and satiating. People usually don't think of cooking as a team activity, but for Sami, Niah and Z it's a blast!
