•• OVERALL PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION ;;

Anasztázia has very long dark brown hair that reaches all of the way down her back. Her rich brown eyes scrutinize many things in detail and seem nearly black in the correct lighting. Her ethnicity is a mixture of Nordic races from her father’s side of the family and her Russian and Hungarian heritage descends to her from her mother, who has ancestral ties in the Roma ways (gypsies). She stands at a slightly above average height of five foot seven and weighs in on the leaner side at one hundred and twenty six pounds. Her body is lean but healthy and does contain a few slight curves to it. A tattoo of a prowling blue tiger walking on clouds graces the back of her right shoulder blade and a tattoo of a falcon lies on her bicep of her left arm as well. When she gets dressed in the morning she dresses how she feels like it and doesn’t care what others think really. Often times her ways of dressing end up being a bit attention grabbing but nothing too outlandish. She loves wearing many bracelets at once, like bangles, in silver and red hues but also loves single bracelets that wrap multiple times around her arm before ending. She is never afraid to show skin and while others may be more modest or self-conscious she does not mind. However it is not always a provocative thing in her mind, that is not usually her intention in dressing that way. Two lion like feline ears point out from between thick locks of her brown hair. They are a golden yellow with silky soft fur, the only differently colored parts are the very top edges of the ears which are suddenly a dark brown, but only a thin line at the top, although obviously not a perfect line. Her feline tail darkens until it is nearly a black at the tip and often is just swaying back and forth, if it is not hidden by her skirts.

•• PERSONALITY ;;

Anasztázia grew up around mostly her matriarchal family rather than her father’s since she does not like them too much. While around her mother’s family she learned how to have fun and just enjoy life to the fullest. She learned to play the fiddle in festive ways and dance for entertainment. The dancing was extreme and if you weren’t used to it you would probably be exhausted within a mere few minutes. She has gained endurance in running and cardiac activities this way over the years. She can dance nonstop for hours on end with the gypsy people on her mother’s side. They are still the traveling kind of gypsies and her mother’s side hasn’t really settled down and the few that have still do all of the activities of old. Ana loves to speak any of her native tongues and she has quite a few native languages due to her mixed heritage and trying to understand members of her family, close and extended. She hates to follow orders or obey anyone other than herself. She is her own boss and can be a bit bossy to others at times. She can be a bit too rash or bold for her own good, rushing into situations and not thinking things through. Speaking her mind comes naturally and if you piss her off well you’ll just have to find out what happens yourself…and you’ll probably discover that she has a very colorful language in many languages. However there were some years that were rough and she learned other useful skills like lying and deceit, sneaking around, and also picking people’s pockets for a living. Although she doesn’t do that all that often. Anya excels in using blades and loves that activity as well either it’s just flipping them in her fingers or twirling them or throwing and fighting with them. Ninja stars are some of her favorite weapons of use. However if you give her a gun it is very likely she’ll just shoot her own foot before she gets anywhere close to her enemy. She fears death and being alone forever and wants to find someone to care for her. Although she wants to find someone to love and care for her she will very likely give men trouble before opening up to them and allowing them to be close to her. She is a flirt and does rather well at the art of seduction. Much like a wild horse she is uncontrollable and if you try to tame it is likely you will be burned. She is definitely a spitfire of a woman.

•• HISTORY ;;

Anasztázia was born into a family of mixed heritage with an ethnicity of Nordic, Russian, and Hungarian with her mother’s side of the family rooted deeply in Roma (Gypsy) tradition. Her mother, Lara, met John MacNamara when the young man ran into a family of gypsies while traveling through Russia. Now with Roma tradition young people get married around the age of 14 or sixteen in arranged marriages by their parents. However upon meeting this stranger Lara wanted to abandon this tradition and fought to stay with him. Although this defied tradition her family was rather accepting as John was willing to learn their ways and keep his mind open to them. But his family was not so accepting as they were, his kin denied all ties to Lara and once Ana was born her as well. They still spoke to John but only because he had been the golden child all his life and they all loved him dearly.

When the couple was twenty three years old, they were the same age, they had their first child, Anasztázia. She was a lovely little child and while she saw her mother’s family a lot they lived separately from them and she grew up knowing the ways of the normal world as well. However the few times she was actually around her father’s side of the family they rejected her seeing her as something less than they were. Since her father’s family held a higher status in society than her mother’s side ever had. One time a few of her cousins had even beat her up slightly and trapped her in a corner saying she was a bastard child and not equal to them in their birthright. She had retaliated with a surprisingly vibrant vocabulary, cussing and swearing, which she had mostly picked up from her mother’s family and friends and a few friendly reminders of what a good punch to the nose felt like for her little brat of a male cousin, Liam. After this they had been disgusted by how she acted as she was no where near the young lady they expected of her and blamed her mother’s family saying that they were horrible influences, which they were in some ways but in others they were amazing. She grew up also learning thieving schemes and ways which came in handy when her family was in trouble. From the time she was eight to the time she was twelve her family struggled to support themselves and suffered greatly, her thievery and that of others in her family was one of the few things that actually kept her family afloat in the cruel world. Once she was twelve though things picked up for the family and they finally achieved a great deal of success for themselves. Her dancing and fiddling became such a huge part of her life that she decided to study them further and try to support herself that way.

While learning to pickpocket though there were times when she was caught by her target. Most of the time the agility and petite size of her child self were helpful but things did not always end as nicely as she would've liked. Once, during her elder years of pickpocketing as a child, around the age of ten, one of her targets had trapped her in a dead end alleyway that contained no ways out. The target was a wealthy young man who had not been very pleased when he had witnessed the young girl taking his wallet. She had instinctively refused to give in to the man and return his wallet but he had other ideas. And kicking and beating up a child was not past his limits. She couldn't stand it for long at the time and soon threw the wallet and money back at his feet. With a sneer on his face the man picked up the wallet and walked off. After this she never wanted to be caught off guard again by a nasty target who had no problems with hurting her. When she returned back to the others with a nasty black eye and other various bruises there really were no questions when she asked her uncle for a dagger to carry around with her. Her uncle gained at least some honest money by selling such things but he really knew nearly nothing about handling them.

After a couple months of playing with the dagger in her spare time she realized that she still had no clue how to properly handle the weapon or even decently use it. If she had to likely she would just randomly slash out with no real aim or idea how to keep from harming herself in the process. But where or who could she really go to to show her how to use it? That was when she met Alek Dashkov, a 55 year old retired assassin, who caught the young girl trying to throw the dagger at a box, with an X drawn on it, in the alley behind his antiques shop but failing miserably and obviously frustrated at her own failed attempts. He offered to teach the young girl how to use the dagger properly if she would run errands and do a few chores for the man. So a few times a week or so she would go and do some chores or run an errand or two before going out in the alley with Alek, some targets and dummies, and her dagger to learn how to use it. Once she had the dagger down pretty well after a time Alek offered to teach her other forms of bladed fighting. Some were swords, including claymores, other daggers and small formed blades, and shuriken, or ninja stars. When she would be at home she would continue with her own practice with the weapons using old items she found around the house that she could use as targets. She practiced especially her dagger but now and then Alek would let her take some of his weapons home with her. Over the years she began to grow her own small collection of weapons, mostly concealable ones. She continued with this and training with Alek up until the age of eighteen when she became more focused on college and began to travel more often.


She went off to study both fiddle and dance in college and although she learned many things she also taught the classes somewhat more about the Roma ways of dance and some of their fiddling ways. Now she is a college sophomore but she tends to rove and roam more than stay in one place for long and study at school. Her professors have learned this about her and while a few are lenient and let her do things her own way others are a little more unaccepting so it make take her a while to finish but she doesn’t care. She has never been very successful at long-lasting relationships and never really had anything serious yet, but she tries and she tries hoping that along the way she will find someone.

When the giant meteor showers of 2012 started just a few weeks ago she was fascinated as people came out with stories of how the showers were turning humans into other beings and giving them inhuman abilities. But when it happened to her she just couldn't believe it. She was dancing with some other Roma when she felt a bit disoriented and stumbled nearly falling over, which had not happened in her dancing that horribly for what seemed like forever. When she looked around she was staring back at what seemed to be like a clone of herself. She could duplicate herself! Anya found this ability amazing and could only imagine what she could and would do with it. But along with this...gift...Anya found that she had some newly grown appendages, which included two feline ears and a tail.
