Teodora Petrova

"Next time I see you, Amerikanski, I will crush you." ~ Teodora to Roland Masseau before her retreat.Teodora Petrova is the current captain and former vice-captain of the Revenants of Black Watch legion Brass Hussars. She was Jurek Horace's personal second-in-command before his defeat at the hands of Roland Masseau and Laura Wilkinson.
== Appearance ==
Teodora is a petite, youthful woman with glistening silver eyes and long, white, lustrous hair that is typically tied up in a braid. She is of a small stature, standing at 5 feet even.
Her uniform consists of a black cloak, underneath which is a set of sleek, black armor with green highlights. Her most notable piece of equipment is her helmet, which possesses an angular design and a face mask that acts as a filter, as well as two sloping "ears" at the sides. When engaging in battle, a green-tinted visor will shut over Teodora's eyes in order to protect them.
== Personality ==
Teodora can be described as cold as steel, sharp as a blade and stricter than any captain within the Watch. She demands consistently perfect performance from her men and answers only to her superiors, Captain Horace and the Council. This has lead some men within the watch to fear her, and others to respect her. If one were to step out of line, she has been known for her rather cruel punishments, including personally flogging those who have gone against the Watch's codes. 
== Backstory ==
=== Early Life ===
Born on July 2, 2035, in Sofia, Bulgaria, Teodora Petrova's childhood was one wrought with issues. She was born to a poor family, whose wages barely made enough for them to live in a small home. On top of this, her mother was addicted to crystal meth and her father was drunk and constantly beat and abused her during her teenage years. 
During her childhood, Teodora would often spend her time in a small forest clearing near her home, a place where she could get away from her torment. One day, however, when she arrived there, she found a large metallic orb in the middle of the clearing. She had no idea how it got there, and out of curiosity she approached it and touched it, only for arms to suddenly spring out of the sides of the orb, legs spring out the bottom, and finally a head springing out on top. She had heard stories of Golems, mythical beings made out of inanimate materials, but she had never seen one. To her surprise, the golem was sentient, and introduced itself as a 'friend'. Teodora never got to go to school, so she never really had any friends, so she became friends with the golem, naming it Topka for its spherical shape. 
One day, when Teodora was 16, her mother passed away due to a meth overdose. Having no one else to blame, Teodora's father blamed her and used her as an outlet for his already severe rage. The abuse only escalated, until one day Teodora accidentally knocked a glass of alcohol onto her father's shirt. This enraged him, as he saw it as a sign of disrespect, and he grabbed a large cleaver and chased her out of the house with the intent to maim her. She ran to the forest clearing, but her father had followed her. She tripped and fell, and her father caught up, raising the cleaver and preparing to assault her, only for Topka to burst from the bushes, brandishing a rock in one hand, and bashing the father in the back of the head so hard it sent fragments of his skull flying into his brain, killing him. The father fell onto the floor, the back of his head caved in as Teodora curled up into a ball and cowered. Topka then knelt down and asked her a question - "Do you want to be friends for life?"
Teodora looked up at Topka hesitantly, but agreed. Topka then embraced Teodora, with a flash, Topka was gone. But in its place was a symbol scarred into Teodora's chest - an archaic rune that symbolized a pact made with an ancient being.

== Powers and Abilities ==
Golem Summoning: Through a pact made with an ancient Golem, the golem has lent Teodora its power to assist her in combat. The Golem was dubbed Topka (Ball) by Teodora due to its spherical torso and abilities. She can either summon parts of Topka (such as an arm for defense) or be fully encased in Topka's form. Along with this, Topka has a large cannon stored in its chest which can fire out magic projectiles of white-hot fire, capable of melting straight through steel. Before firing, a magic sigil forms in the air in front of the barrel, condensing the magic energy needed for the projectile. 
* Bowling Ball Form: If Topka's full body has been summoned, it can assume a bowling ball form wherein all its limbs and head retract into their sockets, which then close up, leaving only its spherical body left. Teodora can control where the ball rolls, using its immense weight to break through walls and crush enemies. 
* Tank Form: After assuming its bowling ball form, Topka can split its torso into three segments - the outer two thirds are connected by an axle and act as wheels, whilst the middle third deploys the cannon. This allows for Topka to use its cannon with maximized defense, whilst still remaining mobile. Often, Topka takes this form to act as some sort of artillery cannon. 
In addition to this, Topka is forged from incredibly durable material and is not easily damaged. However, summoning Topka's full-body form is straining on Teodora, and she cannot hold it for too long.
=== Innate Abilities and Significant Traits ===
Cold as Brass: Teodora is incredibly strict, strives for perfection and usually doesn't stick up for bullshit. Because of this, she has become very headstrong in battle, and is not easy to break.
Sharp as a Blade: However, she is also very sharp-minded and intelligent, making her a cunning opponent on the battlefield.
Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Teodora has been personally trained in Black Watch martial arts by Captain Jurek Horrace. She takes advantage of her small frame, making her quick, nimble and graceful during combat.
