Anya Sanikov

Air certified

**Anya Sanikov** is a character portrayed by **Kirasaurus**.

## **General Information**

Anya Sanikov is the Captain for the Los Santos Police Department, Badge #409. She is widely known as one of the best drivers within the PD.

## **Personality**

Anya speaks in a english-russian accent. She is a person that is trying to do good and serve the community, but can come off as extremely rude and intrusive due to the fact that she takes absolutely no bullshit and will call out anyone for it. She also has a very high ego, and the self proclaimed title of "best cop ever" that she often fights over with fellow colleague, Lieutenant Maverick Metcalf.

She constantly walks on the line of "what is ok to do and what is not", which can be both funny, but also difficult for her colleagues- much to Kathryn-Rose Deramore her work partners frustration. If you play ball with her she'll give the same back, as she often states; Respect is a two way street, if you don't show it back you won't get it.

## **Background**

Anya was born in Moscow, Russia. Her father worked with the Russian Armed Forces and she therefore had to travel quite a bit from a very young age. Her mother couldn't handle the lifestyle her father had forced upon the family due to work and left when Anya was five years old.

Because of all the travelling and constantly swapping schools Anya struggled finding her place. She never truly felt at home anywhere. She adored her father but struggled to accept her parents splitting up and her mother leaving her. She never truly forgave her parents for this. The constant moving and uncertainty left her feeling very much alone, and eventually she couldn't take it anymore. When she was sixteen she took her mothers footsteps and left.

Her first years alone she moved back to Moscow, and at the age of eighteen she got a job at Butyrka Prison. Working at the prison shaped much of Anya's thought processes towards people, and especially convicts and criminals that she now works with on a daily basis. She had to work with people that had performed heinous acts, and deal with extremely dangerous criminals. The work enviorment was rough, plagued by corruption and violence towards the inmates. Initially she did as she was trained, but after experiencing the death of a convict by her own hands she handed in her resignation papers the following day.

The years following she was plagued by her previous actions. She dealt with her remorse and guilt the only way she knew how to deal with anything- move. The next couple of years Anya moved around a lot. Sweden, Finland, Denmark, but she never felt home or at ease.

Eventually, and by share coincidence she ended up in the US. The memories from Butyrka still fresh in mind, she decided she wanted to give back, try to repent on her previous actions. She therefore joined the Police Academy to which she passed with flying colours. Ever since she's vowed her life to law enforcement, attempting to fix her wrongdoings from the past.

## **Relationships**

### Kathryn-Rose Deramore

Her work-wife and her partner, they are more often than not in the same cruiser fighting crime together. They met before Rose became a cop, and their first interaction at Pillbox ended with both Rose and her wife Eve in cuffs. Once Rose was drafted for the PD a few months later Sanikov took her on as her prodigy. Sanikov takes great pride in having trained Rose, and will often take credit for the officer Rose is today, stating she is the reason to why Rose has become such a great officer.

Their dynamic works really well as a "bad cop good cop" duo. After countless shifts on duty together they have become quite the power couple. They know each other to the point where they rarely need to tell either what to do in a situation. When Rose became the Assistant Chief, Sanikov took on the unofficial role as Rose's pitbull.

### Evelynn Seadrop

Eve is unofficially Sanikov's daughter. It's unsure how this was decided, but Eve pressed the subject numerous times and Sanikov decided to roll with it. Sanikov sees Eve as one of her prodigy's too, and having a sense of motherly love over Eve.

## **Highlights**

### **The suspension**

On the 7th of february 2021 Sanikov got suspended by Kathryn-Rose Deramore, the Assistant Chief of Police. Prior to this incident she had been in a shootout with some criminals and had the usual banter back and forth. While waiting for the suspects at Mount Zonah while they we're receiving medical treatment she started singing Bohemian Rhapsody- Mama I just killed a man. Her and Rose started to adjust the sentences to fit the scenario they had just been in.

Sanikov told Kathryn-Rose Deramore (Rose) that she would sing the song to one of the suspects, to which Rose responded she would absolutely not do. Sanikov disregarded her superiors orders and when they we're in the cells started singing the song regardless. Rose quickly dragged her by the arm and took her into another room, handcuffing her and giving her a timeout. Sanikov got Evelynn Seadrop (Eve, Rose's wife), Roses wife and now fresh officer to uncuff her. Rose issued Sanikov two strike points for the incident, due to her singing two lines of the song to the suspect.

On the 7th Sanikov had taken Eve with her on duty, being her FTO. The shift was extremely quiet and they therefore stood outside the MRPD steps with fellow colleagues and long term friends, Vergil Winters & Eleanor Garland. Sanikov was telling them about the strikes and her and Winters decided to record the song, adding yet another verse to it to accomodate the strikes. Rose was inside MRPD interviewing potential cadets, and came out to ask what they all were doing. At that time the song had just finished and Winters decided to play it for Rose. This did not go well, and subsequently ended in Winters receiving three strikes and Sanikov yet another strike. Sanikov went out on patrol after being ordered to do so, still finding the situation funny. Meanwhile the song was given a cover with Rose's head as Freddy Mercury with Sanikov pointing a gun at a surrendering Winters in the background. Winters named the song "Bohemian Strikesody, brought to you by: Freddie "5 strike points Mercury". The song mysteriously was also added to twitter under the handle "5StrikePoints".

After an hour Sanikov was called yet again into the office, this time to talk to Kai King, the Undersheriff and Gavin Holliday, head of internal affairs accompanied by Rose. She was given a five day suspension for the song. Sanikov was surprised by the suspension and following investigation for what she still meant was just "blowing off steam, and a satirical song" with no sense of realism to it.
