## Backstory

Ekaterina grew up in Russia in the mid-1920s. She grew up very wealthy. She met Adonis in 1955, and 2 years later, they would marry.

But, after a while Ekaterina gets bored. She and Leonidas begin having an affair. And in January 1960, She ended up pregnant. Adonis thinks the baby is his.

On her children's 4th birthday. The couple went to Leonidas’ house. After, when they are leaving, a car drives up in front of them. Before the couple can react, two people from inside the car pull out guns and shoot the couple dead.

## Appearance

Ekaterina has medium-length curly brown hair. She wears expensive clothes and jewelry, and golden triangle earrings that she would give to her daughter.

## Personality
