Character Information

Personality

Irina can really be two-faced. While she will be the kindest person when dealing with children or elderly people, she's cold as steel with her enemies. She is sharp and to the point, wasting little time to get her ideas across, but she is also able to debate topics for hours if needed. Her goal, bringing the world together under the utopia of communism, is what keeps her going.

She knows her Motherland has collapsed, but still believes that with a proper, selfless leading body, the ideal world can be brought to existence. She has learned from her past experiences and knows that it's impossible to force people into the great Socialist Revolt; so instead, she tries to slowly, kindly show the people of the world the great benefits of such a system, and how it would improve world stability.

Physical appearance

Irina is above average in height, with light blonde hair and blue eyes, and speaks in a Northern Russian dialect, as well as English. Since her reconstruction, her right eye has been replaced by a cybernetic implant that glows bright red. Her right arm, also has been replaced. While the base prosthetic is relatively small, the graviton generator and projector it houses make it look bulky. Her body is muscular, unnaturally so.

Aura reading

Irina has a "normal" human aura, tinted here and there with traces of regrets as to her past life.

Mind reading

Nothing special can be said about her inner self, her purpose and ideas are already well-known. The only point of interest would be her guilt for having been manipulated, and the consequences of that lapse in judgement.

Likes / Dislikes

  • Likes: Russia the Motherland, helping people in need, saving the innocent
  • Dislikes: Utterly hates Nazis and Neo-Nazis, has sworn revenge on Red Winter for their betrayal
  • Drinking: A little glass of vodka once in a while, never enough to get drunk
  • Smoking: Doesn't smoke

Abilities / Powers

Having lost her arm and aiming eye forever disabled Irina's ability to be a sniper, but thanks to Dr Ivan Danko, a whole new set of abilities was at her disposal. The idealist professor equipped her with his brand new graviton prototype. With it, Irina can generate spheres of anti-gravity at such speeds that everything located at the impact gets blasted away.

The main generator-projector is embedded inside her prosthetic right arm, while her left glove is merely a "feedback" unit, enabling her to focus and amplify the initial burst.

Unlike what people seem to think first-hand, Irina is very much human, with a slightly above average strength due to the augmentative surgery (but nothing compared to Super-Strong heroes out there).

It might also be noted that her artificial right eye doesn't improve her vision beyond that of a normal human, it just replaces the one she lost a few years ago.

Background

Irina Fedyushkin[a] (Ирина Федюшкина); was born the 3 April 1924 in the Russian village of Yedma (Ustyansky District in Arkhangelsk Oblast), to a kolkhoz milkmaid and a logger, who had become disabled from a wound received in World War I. She had six siblings: one sister Yuliya and five brothers (Mikhail, Fyodor, Sergei, Pavel and Marat).

After finishing four classes of elementary school in Yedma, Irina continued her education in the village of Berezniki. As there was no school transport at the time, Irina in grades five through seven had to walk 13 kilometers (8.1 mi) to Berezniki to attend middle school.

At the age of fourteen, Irina, against her parents' wishes, walked 200 kilometers (120 mi) across the taiga to the rail station and rode to Arkhangelsk to study at the college there. Irina departed with little money and almost no possessions; before moving to the college dormitory she lived with her elder brother.

Arkhangelsk became Irina's hometown and later in her combat diary she recalled the town's stadium Dinamo, and the cinemas, Ars and Pobeda. In 1938, Irina became a member of Komsomol.

Following the German invasion of the Soviet Union, Irina's two elder brothers volunteered for the military. In December 1941, a death notification for one of her brothers, nineteen year-old Mikhail (who died during the Siege of Leningrad), arrived, and Irina went to the military commissariat to ask for permission to serve herself (two other of Irina's brothers would also die in the war).

At that time the Soviet Union was deploying numerous female snipers, because they had flexible limbs, and it was believed that they were both patient and cunning. They were also thought to be more resilient under combat stress than men, and more resistant to cold.

On June 22, 1943, Irina was accepted in Vsevobuch for military training, while still living in the dormitory. After applying several times, she was allowed by the military commissariat to enroll in the Central Female Sniper Academy

Irina scored highly in training, and graduated from the academy with honors.

On April 2, 1944 Irina joined the 184th Rifle Division, where a separate female sniper platoon had been formed. Three days later, south-east of Vitebsk, Irina fired her first combat shot.

For her actions in the 1944 battle for the village of Kozyi Gory (Smolensk Oblast), Irina was awarded the 3rd Class Order of Glory on April 17 of that year.

According to the report of the commander of the 1138th Rifle Division, Major Degtyarev, between April 6–11, Irina killed thirteen enemy soldiers while subjected to artillery and machine gun fire. By May 1944, Irina was credited with 17 confirmed enemy kills, and was soon praised as a precise and brave soldier.

Around that time she became a squad commander in the female sniper platoon. On June 22, 1944 the Soviets started a large-scale Operation Bagration in the Vitebsk region. The female snipers were to be retracted, but continued to voluntarily support the advancing infantry. Irina also pressed to be sent to the front line despite Soviet policy of sparing snipers. Irina was sanctioned for willfully going to the front line without permission, and faced a court martial.

The sentence for disobeying a direct order in times of war was and still is simple: death. However Irina, on behalf of her unwavering patriotism and support of the Motherland, was offered a deal by high-members of the Party. She was to submit herself to experiments performed in a top-secret lab. If said experiments worked, she'd be reinstated and would be able to use her new powers for the glory of the Soviets.

Irina accepted unquestioningly, and proceeded with the experiment. She was plunged into some sort of cryo-sleep while surgeons were altering her muscle structure. An accident happened however shortly after the operation was complete, and the materials used to induce her cryo-sleep were released in the whole complex, freezing everything and everyone.

Facing the terrible failure of the experiment, authorities decided to bury it and erased all evidence of it. The lab remained thus in its frozen state for more than 50 years. One day, however a few individuals entered the lab. Those were investigators, working for the government of the newly-formed Russian Federation. They had, after months of research, gone through layers upon layers of lies and misinformation and found evidence of this secret lab.
