## History

Living and working in a traveling circus affords Nadya many things, and the secrecy that comes with their tight knit band allows her to keep her history buried. If you ask any of the other people in the traveling circus about her story, you'll only get dirty looks and a gruff "none of your Damn business". Others will make up an obviously fake story just to mock you and send you on your way. Which is exactly how she likes it.

If you ask Nadya her story, you'll get wildly different versions, each one more ridiculous than the last and they all range from obscure to just insane. The most popular versions are "I defrauded a major corporation" or "I robbed the second largest bank in Star City using only a ball point pen" and her personal favorite.. "I killed a man... with THIS THUMB".

The only reason her history has ever been a question with outsiders is the fact that neither she or any of her bothers look anything like their parents, hinting at the possibility that she was adopted. There's other subtle hints dropped by newer crew members who haven't learned the unspoken rule of "they don't need know". Some have dropped the peruse she came here" or "found her" hinting that maybe Nadya wasn't born into the business and if pressed hard enough, that's the only bit of information you'll get. Her only confirmation has been that she wasn't born in the circus but she'll never explain further. No one needs to know.

Being an entertainer, she's learned how to keep things interesting, which is exactly what you'll get should you spend more than a day with her. You might not lean her history, but hell be damned if she won't leave you with a smile on your face. As far as she's concerned, her past doesn't matter. What matters is now and right now she has a family of misfits and freaks that she'd do anything to protect by any means necessary.

## Skills/Abilities

### Fighting Styles

Nadya has improvised her flashy acrobatic skills and choreographed dances into a form of combat used only when necessary. It's raw and unrefined and more toned down compared to what she does on the wire. She takes full advantage of her flexibility to wiggle, contort and bend her way out of almost any hold

### Physical Condition

Extremely flexible sometimes to the point of disturbing anyone in the room that isn't used to her antics
