Elementa

I**rinushka Jekatarina Karpov**, more commonly known as **Anaztazya Oztrovzky**, is the daughter of HYDRA solider Vasily Karpov and was experimented on as a child, giving her elemental abilities. When she was ten years old, her memory was wiped and she was sent to America, to cripple the system from within. The plan however backfired as Oztrovzky was trained by Natasha Romanoff and Clint Barton and became an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. She became one of the original members of the Avengers and fought alongside the others during the Chitauri invasion.

Oztrovzky eventually rejoined the Avengers, working to bring down various HYDRA cells across the world and assisting in the capture of Wolfgang von Strucker. It was during this mission she met Pietro Maximoff, an enhanced human who enthralled her. Around this time the rogue artificial superbot Ultron was created by Stark and Banner, forcing Oztrovzky and the rest of their team to join together and defeat him. Oztrovzky spent some time with Ultron and the twins, Pietro and his sister Wanda, eventually convincing the two to change sides. When Vision was born, some of his power embedded itself in her.

After this Oztrovzky became unsure and struggled to keep tabs on her abilities, she was retrained by Steve Rogers who helped keep her mind focused. On a mission to Lagos, Nigeria, Oztrovzky accidentally blew up a building and flooded the city leading to casualties. Tension rose between the Avengers over the Sokovia Accords, and Oztrovzky formally retired, scared of herself and what she could do. Stark developed de-hancing wristlets and recruited her for his team against Rogers and the Winter Soldier. Oztrovzky inadvertently shot War Machine out of the sky while the Avengers were torn apart by their conflict.

Feeling guilty over paralyzing War Machine, Oztrovzky and Pietro quietly fled to Europe, until helping Captain America protect Vision from the Black Order, who wanted the Mind Stone. They later defended Wakanda from the attack, but were ultimately defeated when Thanos wiped out half of the universe with the Infinity Gauntlet. Oztrovzky emerged as one of the survivors, but were without Pietro. Oztrovzky was part of the Ambush on Thanos in effort to retrieve the Infinity Stones and undo the Titan's snap, with no success.

Over the next five years, Oztrovzky worked to get her abilities under control. She made close friends with Amira Stark, and together the two spent their days training, both trying to cope with their loss. To undo the Snap, the Avengers split into teams to retrieve the Infinity Stones from several alternate timelines in the Time Heist. Oztrovzky went with Romanoff and Barton to Vormir, to collect the Soul Stone, and witnessed Romanoff sacrifice her life for the stone. Ridden with grief, they retrieved the stone and returned to 2023. Oztrovzky fought in the Battle of Earth until Thanos and his army eventually were defeated by Tony Stark, who sacrificed his own life. Oztrovzky attended the funeral of Tony Stark, and was finally reunited with Pietro.

## Biography

### Early life

Irinushka Jekatarina Karpov was born 27 October, 1997 to Vasily Karpov and Dinara Oztrovzky. Her father was a prominent HYDRA operative in control of the Winter Solider Program. Her mother was a prominent assasin trained as a Black Widow in the Red Room. Since the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, HYDRA had been pressured to create new assets. Because of this Karpov was born to be trained into an assassin.

#### Experimented on by HYDRA

HYDRA begun experimenting on Karpov when she was just short of a year, led by Arnim Zola, she became HYDRA's new asset. The Serpent Program was created in 2003 and had Karpov as the front runner, the succeeded experiment. When HYDRA came in possession of the Mind Stone, further experiments were made on Karpov until she developed elemental abilities. Karpov was sent on many missions, aiding the Winter Soldier in missions he couldn't finish.

Karpov became a vital figure in the Serpent Program, tasked with choosing and training the candidates. If they could overpower her, they would be accepted. However, as her power grew, no one seemed to be able to overpower her.

#### Theft of the Mind Stone

The Titan Thanos learned of the location of the Mind Stone, and came to take it back in 2006. He sent his army, but was defeated by Karpov and the Serpents. Instead, Thanos came to retrieve it himself. The Serpents were all defeated within minutes, only Karpov stood a chance.

### Joining S.H.I.E.L.D.

#### Becoming an agent

Like the Winter Soldier Program, the Serpent Program came to an end when the subjects turned out flawed. Karpov was ordered to kill the other subjects, to leave to survivors and evidence of the experiments after the theft of the Mind Stone. Using the Memory Suppressing Machine, Vasily Karpov completely wiped the young girls memory. Irinushka was made to believe her name was Anaztazya Oztrovzky and that she was just a scared young Russian girl who's parents had been killed. HYDRA burned down a city in Russia and made sure that S.H.I.E.L.D. sent agents to scene where they would find the girl.

S.H.I.E.L.D. sent agents Natasha Romanoff and Clint Barton, who felt bad for the girl and took her with them to the US, like HYDRA had predicted. Over the next years, they trained her to be one of their most prominent agents.
