## Appearance

Kate has dark brown hair, slightly-elongated almond-shaped dark brown eyes and lightly tanned skin.

She's tall for a woman at 5’7″ with a lean-muscular build with numerous scars from a lifetime of fighting and a tattoo of a Raven holding a bloody sword with words Dar Vorona (Raven’s Gift in Russian) on her left shoulder.

Her preferred working attire consists of jeans that are loose enough to allow her to kick someone taller than her in the throat, shirt, and comfortable running shoes that she can bleach. She's deliberately forgone makeup, feminine clothes, and lingerie for functionality, but refuses to cut her hair.

## Personality

Kate is a very straight forward upbeat person who loves a good fight, being a smart mouth, and helping others in need. Due to her harsh childhood she is very reserved and has a hard time accepting friends. Though once accepted, she is very protective of them. She has a problem with authority figures and hates being one even more so.

She has a very unbiased outlook - judging others based on their own actions.

In spite of her upbeat personality, Kate has a ruthless side to her that manifests when she becomes too engrossed in a fight, when dealing with someone evil or when someone she cares for is severely injured or killed.

One of Kate's more defining characteristics is her sarcastic (if slightly off-color at times) humor. Kate often responds to threats with extreme sarcasm.

## Biography

Shortly after she was conceived her father Roland decided he could not let her be born due to his children in the past turning against him. Her mother then fled with her adoptive father Voron to save her. Not long after she was born Roland found them; knowing Voron stood a better chance of surviving Kates' mother stayed behind to give Voron and Kate more time to escape, dying in the process.
When she was two years old Voron took her to visit Evdokia , then again when she was four then every few months until she was seven. In between visits Voron trained Kate how to fight and survive. Much of which was harsh and unpleasant. One of the methods he used was leaving Kate in the forest with nothing but a knife and canteen, while another was hunt feral dogs with a knife.

When she was ten Voron hired a street thug to kill her only for Kate to kill him instead.

Afterwords Voron and Kate traveled the Americas. During their travels Kate fought in various tournaments and studied under various masters one of which was in Oklahoma.

At eleven Kate learned the Dubal ritual from an Arabic woman.

When she was twelve Kate won a Guatemalan bare-knuckle boxing tournament. The other competitors were boys some as old as sixteen. She also learned her first two Power Words at this age and almost died mastering them.

Fought in her first fighting arena called Hoyo de Sangre ("sands of blood") at thirteen in Peru.

Won a citywide sword tourney at fourteen. Killed her last opponent in thirty seconds causing the locals to give her the name "pequena assassina" (little killer). Later that year she beat Voron in a sparring match.

For the next year Voron and Kate traveled back to Savannah, stopping in Cuba then Maimi. Shortly in Savannah after arriving when Kate was fifteen Hugh d’Ambray found Voron and killed him. When Kate returned Voron was bloated and still had a sword in his hand.Greg Feldman took over her guardianship shortly after.

When Kate was seventeen, she met a student wizard named Derin . He was her first time. Greg warned Kate that Derin would try to use her to gain the power and prestige he craved once he figured out how powerful she was. He warns her that forming a relationship with someone weak was a liability, but one with someone powerful was dangerous due to the threat of exposure or manipulation. Two days later, after Kate ignored Greg, Derin asked for a favor, just as Greg predicted. Kate sent him on an errand and called Greg to help her eradicate any trace of her from the apartment. Afterwards she left for the Order’s Academy.
