Name: Yekaterina "Katushya" Braginskya
Country of Origin: Ukraine
Gender: -looks at chest- ...Female...;;
Age: 26
Height: 168 cm.
Weight: 180 lbs. -flushes- Ah... -shuffles-
Appearance:
A sweet-faced girl, always on the verge of tears. Yekaterina wears her light blonde hair in a short bob, using either a blue, green, or yellow headband and two hairclips on the left to hold back her bangs and show pretty dark blue eyes. Her mouth is almost always trembling, and she frequently wipes at her eyes with her sleeves.
Amply endowed with large natural assets, Yekaterina has a very motherly appearance. Occasionally she suffers back pain from the stress her figure is under, but not enough to seriously debilitate her motion. Even though she is a very soft-seeming, there is a quiet, deceptive strength in her muscles, built from years of farm work.
Clothing wise, while Yekaterina has a strong fondness for soft fabrics and beautiful dresses, she'll opt for practicality over style any day of the week. Always a bit of a farm girl at heart, her 'mess clothes' as she calls them often consist of a plain white blouse, a set of light blue overalls with suspenders, simple brown boots, and a dark blue ribbon around her neck.
Dressing for battle, she wears a kneelength, thick black coat with large cuffs, a matching black hat, white gloves, knee-length boots, a first-aid kit, several belt pouches full of bullets, and a bandolier for her large gun/miniature cannon, which she usually carries strapped to her back when not wielding it over her shoulder. Can also be used as a blunt weapon.
Crew member of: The Imperial Eagle
Status: Head Cook
Pet: Ah... -shakes head- B-But I love cute animals! Especially farm animals. -gushes- <3
Personality:
Yekaterina is the definition of a tender soul, and this lends her a sort of fragility. Capable of gushing over with joy and breaking down into sobs at the drop of a hat, many have trouble believing her displays of emotion are genuine, calling her a cry-baby. Which, of course, leads to only more tears.
She's a very giving person, always trying to find ways to sympathize and empathize with people, no matter how harsh they may treat her in return, or how threatening they may seem. She is happiest when she is in a harmonious atmosphere, and tries to bring a piece of that wherever she goes. She always looks out for people who are hurting.
As far as handling conflict, she tries to diffuse it whenever possible, equivocating and giving ground more often than she'd like to admit. Regardless, when the going gets tough, Katushya gets going. She may be sniffling, but she gets the job done, and, most of the time, that's all that's asked of her.
Woe to the person who pushes her too far--everyone has a breaking point...
History:
Growing up as the eldest sister of three siblings on a small rural farm in Eastern Europe, Yekaterina wasn't exactly what one would call a big dreamer. A home, a husband, maybe a few kids, that would have been more than enough. A plot of land, maybe, where she could make good things grow.
However, times got hard, as they sometimes do, and for a while it was just Katushya and her little sister, after the disappearance of the middle brother, scraping an existence together out of almost barren earth. When the farm finally went bust, the girls were sent out to distant relatives, with only each other for familiarity and comfort. Once there, they were treated more as servants than as family- not harshly, but not warmly, either.
While Yekaterina tried to make the best of a bad situation, her younger sister chafed, filled with a burning need she didn't understand to be out searching for something, for someone, in particular their long-lost brother. One night, after an icy argument, Yekaterina woke to found her sister gone. Not only that, but she had taken most of the host family's valuables, including their knives, and left Katushya holding the bag, so to speak.
Luckily, the family was out of town, so Yekaterina was able to comb the rest of the house, taking in particular a huge gun with which to protect herself, before going out in search of her sister. As she wrestles with her conscience and her new status as a fugitive, she turns up in a large city, wondering over her fate.
Allegiance: Searching the Skies for her sister.
