Origin:

Like the rest of her fellows in the Crasniye Solleetsi, Nadehzda is a paranormal, an altered human of sorts that acquired her super-human powers in the wake of the so-called White Event, a strange astronomical phenomenon that forever steered her world on a path away from our timeline. Nadehzda's powers involve the creation of psionic cubes of force, hence her code name.

Powers:

Natural Psionics (Psikinetic Powers):

Force Field (t) (i): Nadehzda's trademark power is her ability to generate psionic cubes of force, cubes that she can assemble around either herself or other people. She can do this with intensity 14 skill, creating force cubes that can either protect or contain a person with similar strength, and which are fully effective against physical, energy, and psionic attack forms.

One power stunt that she has demonstrated so far is the ability to generate one of her cubes in front of a moving object bearing down on her. When she does so, she can effectively attempt a power dodge with her paranormal ability; in other words, she uses her power intensity instead of her Agility as the basis for this maneuver, and if the attack misses, it will strike her cube, instead.

Hindrances / Augmentations:

Dulled Sense / Vision: Nadehzda has bad vision, and usually relies upon her trademark, round-rimmed glasses to correct this problem. Should she find herself without them, she should make all Agility (and Strength for attack purposes) actions at an increased difficulty level, which is usually incentive enough to either carry a spare pair of spectacles at all times, or to avoid losing them altogether.

Skills:

Leadership (w): though she doesn't seem to be trained by the Soviet military by any means, Nadehzda seems to have the skill necessary to lead a body of people into battle; said skill could use some work, but that's what she was doing with her time in the Siberian Project. Any team led by her enjoys a +1 to all actions as long as they're following her directions.

Martial Arts (a): in addition to her ability to use her paranormal power competently, Nadehzda has demonstrated the ability to defend herself in combat, should the need arise. While engaging in unarmed combat with any opponent, Nadehzda can lower the difficulty on attempts to strike others in unarmed melee, reduce falling damage, and catch weapons thrown at her.

Contacts:

As the leader of Crasniye Solleetsi, Nadehzda can reasonably rely upon the members of that team - sans Rodstvow - for assistance; that one exception merely being because he's generally unpredictable in the first place. Furthermore, since she seems to be working with the Siberian Project willingly, that arm of the KGB may permit her favors if it suits them to do so.

Calling:

Soldier: though the true motivation for her actions with the Siberian Project is unknown, it is apparent that she at least did what she was told, and generally took pride in her work as a paranormal, paramilitary operative. She didn't seem to enjoy her work in a sadistic sense, per se, but definitely looked at it in a way to achieve self-improvement, if not just a mastery of her super-human powers.

Costume:

Nadehzda doesn't go for a spectacular, heroic uniform while on duty with the Crasniye Solleetsi. However, she does believe in functionality, and as such, typically wears a stretch fabric suit while on the job. This suit consists of red pants and a red, long-sleeved shirt bound by white racing stripes along the outside of the legs and arms, red boots and gloves, and a white belt.

Personality:

Little is truly known about Nadehzda's various personality traits, but she has demonstrated a tolerance for the Siberian Project's treatment of herself and her paranormal fellows, so it is assumed that she is at least a patriotic woman. Furthermore, she's shown that she does care for her Solleetsi allies, presenting concern for their well-being and worrying about them when they're hurt.

Story:

Very little is known about Nadehzda's background, in that her tale has yet to be told in the pages of any comic. She may have a background in government services, or the KGB may have something on her - either way she seems to be a willing participant in the Crasniye Solleetsi team. She's been the leader of that group since it first appeared in Afghanistan, quashing a local rebellion.

Her team didn't do all that good in that particular instance, save for the rather insane Rodstvow, who inflicted the most damage on the intransigent Mujahedin rebels. As such, she was reprimanded severely by her superiors in the Siberian Project, and has strived to improve the performance of both herself and her troubled teammates ever since - though she didn't make much headway.

You see, several months after the Afghanistan operation, her team was joined - so to speak - by the captured American paranormals known as Psi-Force. Their very arrival, coupled with their innate stubbornness and unwillingness to be forced into anything by the Soviets - threw off all her work. The Psi-Force youths eventually escaped, and during the mayhem, their Medusa Web allies killed Sillatochca!

Personally angered by this, Nadehzda gladly accepted her superior's order to hunt down and destroy Psi-Force. Along with Shivowtnoeh, she and dozens of Soviet troopers downed the Americans' escape helicopters, and fought them in the Siberian wastes until Rodstvow decided to enter the fray. Of course, by this time he was totally out of control, and Hell-bent on killing every living thing on earth.

Realizing the scope of the danger she was in, Nadehzda decided to drop her rage over Sillatochca's demise, and joined Psi-Force, the Medusa Web, and Justice (who tagged along with the Web on their rescue op) to oppose and eventually destroy the super-powerful madman. Afterwards, she even allowed the various teams to use the Siberian Project facilities to treat their many wounds.

Nadehzda's current activities are as of yet unrevealed.
