## Personality

Catherina is a cunning and ruthless woman. She sees herself as a great being and seeks to expand her influence and power. However she does not want to be at the limelight of the stage but intelligently control everything behind the scene. She saw Lasagna as her pawns and experimental lab rather than a high value investment. Thus, whenever she got any new idea, she would test it on the Lasagna with Fox Kalashnikov and Aiza Medvedev being her tested homunculus.

Catherina is a self-centered individual who likes to be worshipped by others and sees herself as above others. It is said that this personality of her has made Newscope into a god rather than just a savior but she argued that mere savior would not be able to save them either way.

However, she is hot-tempered and very agressive. She will attack anyone dared to oppose her or her colleagues immediately.

Catherine also has a weird and aggressive hatred towards the demons. Maybe it was because of her root as part of the royalty.

Sometimes later, she met a beggar named Midan near a noodle shop. Seeing his potential as her pawn, she seduced and control the man while giving him 10 tons of gold she stole beforehand. This man adopted the name of Lasagna, the name of the type of pasta she ate while talking to him.
