==Profile==
===Identity===
She is actually Dobrynya's wife (in this work, it has the characteristics of both Mikulishna and Nikulichna), who has manifested using his Saint Graph, similar to Artemis using Orion's, who has appeared in the world while disguising her real True Name. It could be possible that Nastasia was worried that her young and polite husband Nikitich would become popular in the world, or that there was some trouble on the side of the Chaldea Security Organization's summoning ceremony.... There are many possible reasons for this.
====Dobrynya Nikitich====
A Dragon Slayer warrior spoken of in , the heroic epic poems of Russia; one amongst the . Even amongst the warriors who served the wise ruler of legend, , the Grand Prince of Kiev, , he was said to be a mighty young warrior, unrivalled by any. Born unto a noble house, Dobrynya Nikitich was nurtured in the love of his widowed mother as a graceful youth. Well known by the anecdotes where he defeated the wicked three-headed dragon, Zmei Gorynych and saved a princess of Kiev, the niece of the Grand Prince of Kiev, Princess ; and by anecdotes pertaining to his wife, Nastasia. He was a Bogatyr of the Fair Sun, so he has a faint connection to sun goddesses.
====Nastasia====
Also known as and . She is the daughter of the Russian hero, the giant , and the young wife of Dobrynya Nikitich known in Russian legend to have been persistent in devotedly waiting her husband's return.
With an anecdote in the Mikulishna version, Dobrynya Nikitich had successfully finished his battle with the three-headed dragon Zmei Gorynych engaged in battle with the female giant and heroine Nastasia. After suffering defeat, he was placed thereon within her pouch. Thereafter he was married to Nastasia.

She possesses cat ears and a long white tail. When asked about it, she talks about how Nastasia was a giant who was more beast than a man, suggesting that she was also a beastwoman.Fate/Grand Order - Tunguska Special Territory - Section 5 - With Delicate Mad Lives
===Personality===
A young warrior unreservedly filled with self-confidence. She is a headstrong warrior who insists that she can do almost anything and will rush into action once she has decided what she must do. Quick of judgment and entirely unwavering. On account that she's filled with self-confidence and outstanding in her decision-making capability, she's as expected of a disposition unto independent action. It could perhaps be said that she's a Heroic Spirit suited to adventuring alone, and to reconnaissance missions. 
She thinks everyone should understand Nikitich has a duty to save Russia whenever possible because he's super capable at pretty much everything, except raising his children.
====Relationships====
;Koyanskaya of Darkness / Koyanskaya of Light
:"Hmmm. Tamamo Vitch Koyanskaya... Um, well... Ummm..."
:"Yaskaya..."
:"Yaskaya, thank you. The swimsuit you picked out is very easy to move in. So this is what a modern battle attire looks like, huh? It’s a wonderful gift. I’m happy. Come here, both of you. Let me hug you tightly. There, hug time!"
:“Yaskaya, ah, my dear Yaskayas! Theeere are two of them!”
:In this way, this event marks the moment where Nikitich met Yaskaya for the third time. She does not understand the reason why, but she is filled with emotion when she meets the two Yaskayas. Upon understanding that this event is just an ephemeral moment, and that she is a hollow shadow figure, Nikitich believes that she must at least fill this small moment with her love.

==Role==
===Fate/Grand Order===
The real Dobrynya Nikitich was summoned in 1908 through a connection with a sun goddess shorty after Tamamo Vitch Koyanskaya's birth, giving her the name , but could do nothing else for the infant as he shortly disappeared afterwards. He wonders if his baby would ever forgive him for leaving, and his wife Nastasia tells him she's a lot more forgiving than she looks like.Fate/Grand Order - Tunguska Special Territory - Section 13 - Love is The Plan, the Plan is...
====Non-Primate Biosphere - Tunguska Sanctuary====
==Abilities==
In combat, Dobrynya Nikitich wields dragon-slaying armaments of Damascus steel (particularly an axe and a set of armour) from her second Noble Phantasm Berza Damask, riding upon her favoured mount Burko. Dobrynya is also capable of summoning 99 Wyverns in battle with her.Fate/Grand Order - Tunguska Special Territory - Section 4 - The Nikitich Solution
She absorbs thousands of bullets from hundred War-beasts summoned by Koyanskaya with Berza Damask in order to protect Chaldea. Even with her armour destroyed and her bleeding heavily, her being a Giant means that the bullets weren't as fatal as they would normally be and she survives the sudden assault.
Dobrynya possesses dragon attributes as a Servant for an unknown reason, however there is a theory that the uncontrollable malignancy of the evil dragon Zmei Gorynych, which is contained in the form of a treasure, may have distorted her Saint Graph in the form of a curse. It's possible.

==Forms and Alternate Versions==
===Swimsuit===
====Personality====
====Abilities====
The feat of once challenging and defeating the three-headed dragon Gorynych by himself at the water's edge is no mere boast. Though the registered Noble Phantasm is different due to her Lancer-class Spirit Origin, had she manifested in a Saber-class Spirit Origin, it's possible she would have had gotten even greater combat abilities than in this current Summer Saint Graph. According to legend, when he defeated the dragon in the raging currents of the Puchai River, he used his hat and dagger.
In terms of underwater combat, Nikitich isn't just a fish in water, but as a warrior who thrives in it. However, this time it’s a swimsuit Spirit Origin. Nikitich's mindset is primarily "to have fun!" and since she is appearing in forms prepared by people like Koyanskaya or her beloved spouse depending on her ascension, it seems she doesn’t intend to fully commit to serious underwater combat this time.Fate/Grand Order - Dobrynya Nikitich (Lancer) and Xu Fu (Avenger)'s Profile 6, translated by Radiant-Hope-469

==Development==
===Creation and Conception===
Dobrynya Nikitich was designed by Robi~na in Fate/Grand Order. Her scenario writer is Hikaru Sakurai in Fate/Grand Order.Fate/Grand Order material XV - Dobrynya Nikitich profile translated by user Kinalvin at Reddit
===Comment from Illustrator===
"My image of Nikitich is of someone vigorously beating up her enemies with light armaments and blunt weapons. The design of her 2nd Stage’s looks was settled first. After that, I came to also want to draw a gallant figure like that of a young warrior’s, and thus the design of her 1st Stage’s looks was born. (I was greatly fastidious about the ears of her cap moving whenever her facial expression changes.) I designed her to ride while standing up so that this form of mounting a flying dragon as a Dragon Rider is also giving out a sense of weight and speed behind it. I believe that she turned out to be a very reliable figure." (Robi~na)
