Elvira Kostur


31|July 22nd|174 cm/|67 kg/147 lbs


Appearance: Elvira is a tanned, tall woman. Her short, maroon hair frames an oval face with defined cheekbones. There's a beauty mark placed above Elvira's thin, assymetrical lips and another one on her right temple, quite close to chesnut eyes. 
She used to be very athletic, but has gained some weight recently - however, her physical strength hasn't dropped significantly, Elvira is definitely stronger than she appears to be. 
A fan of everything related to the sky and the sea, she has quite a big tatoo on her right shoulder - a sun with a paisley pattern around it. 
Elvira rarely wears formal clothing, preferring tank tops and jeans over dresses. However, she sometimes sports trouser suits.

Personality: Elvira in a comfortable environment is a literal ray of sunshine. Always smiling, happy to help anyone in need, trying to lift up others' mood... She is quite charismatic at such times.
However, she quickly loses her cool when in a bad mood or during unpleasant times - fortunately or not, life experience has given her a skill of making decisions quickly and thoughtfully, so usually the "unpleasant times" don't last long or don't stay the same way for long.
Elvira is very unwilling to talk about herself - she prefers to listen or tell a joke or a story heard from a friend. She is a great listener, however, and is willing to give advice.

Before “Open Waters” (Background):
"So what brought you here?"
Oh, Elvira has heard question a million times. When applying for a new job, when meeting colleagues, when a new acquaintance wanted to know more about her... Yeah, definitely, why would she come from a small mining town in Ukraine to the capital of one of the more developed countries of Europe?
Moscow was beautiful. Lively. Enormous. But very unaccepting. The only thing indicating her origin was her name, and yet she still got refused a few jobs because of it.  
Sighing quietly, she answered the newbie's question and looked at the watch. Thankfully, it was time to get home.
"Getting a degree in a discipline I ain't even sure I like and being stuck in this hellhole is something I wouldn't wish to my worst enemy", - Elvira muttered, trying to find the key for the mailbox in her bag. - "God, please let me go somewhere where I'll be free from this. For example, the sea..."

Strengths: She's a great listener and is ready to give advice. Elvira has a keen eye for details and is good at analyzing big amounts of information in a rather short time. She is also quick at decision-making. Elvira is also quite adept at learning languages - she is fluent in Russian and English and is currently learning Italian. Ironically, she barely speaks any Ukranian.

Weaknesses: She's very quick at decision-making and rarely thinks about the long run. Elvira can also be incredibly moody, curses quite a lot and drinks quite a lot of alcohol. Thankfully, there are no signs of a physiological addiction.
