"*For every misfortune in my life I always seem to get a medal for it, it's a curious thing.*"
― **Krasota talking about her medals**
**Verusya Morozova** (Веруся Морозова), codename **Krasota** (Красота) is one of the operatives of Chariot team.

## Profile

Krasota was born in Smolensk, just after the fall of the USSR and grew up in the turbulent times the newly born Russian Federation was subjected to, her family wasn't that rich having just come out of a now collapsed communist system. She went through school and was somebody who kept her head down and her eyes to the task, but the same couldn't be said for others as she grew up.

When she finished high school, she had grown and matured into something of a natural beauty, a pretty face and a well-endowed body gave her a chance invite to a beauty pageant, which she accepted and slowly rose through the system till she was in contention for the top 'Miss Russia' position. But the event which this took place at was the target of a Chechen terror cell, and on the faithful night, Krasota suffered through all the death and chaos around her, she managed to escape and gave crucial information to the FSB for the rescue operation, but the operation was botched heavily and resulted in civilian casualties. Krasota would receive a hero of the Russian Federation for her help, but she constantly felt guilt from this reward.

She retracted from her beauty career, and also a small side career in being an actress, deciding that she really couldn't sit by and let another force of evil cause a repeat of what she went through, she came in contact with an elderly member of her family, and was provided an old Mosin rifle and constant training in the art of marksmanship and sniping. She also started to train herself physically, her smooth curves from her pageant days being slowly broken by muscle.

This all culminated in her presenting herself to the local Russian military detachment, at first they saw just a pretty face, but after she demonstrated herself in her excellent marksmanship, she was quickly accepted into the unit as a designated marksman and given a modern sniper rifle. She toured around and was engaged in a peacekeeping mission in a foreign land, she was involved in a event where her ability to pick off key targets and supressing a mortar barrage helped save a Russian unit from destruction. She gained her second hero of the Russian federation from this, but again she was unenthusiastic, as it came at the cost of her spotter, being a close friend being shot through the head by an enemy sniper right in front of her.

She floated around a bit more, before her values as a sniper were recognised by Chariot team, who later extended an invitation to her, she gladly accepted and was transferred, becoming the team's third marksman alongside Swordfish and Jackson.

## Appearance

Krasota is a rather tall woman, having rich blue eyes and long blonde hair, her body is a perfect figure and she is also endowed with a larger bosom which her choice of clothing do little to hide. Her curves however are slightly broken by defined abs, a characteristic she gained through the physical training she put herself through.

Her tactical uniform consists of a black leather jacket which is usually open, with a black rubber leotard covering most of her body, yet exposing her impressive cleavage. A belt goes around her waist containing pouches for her tactical gear, along with a pouch on her back. Her legs are covered by thick camo-pattern black tights, along with a pistol holster on her right leg and pads on her knee's. This is all finished off with black laced boots on her feet, and gloves on her hands.

## Personality

Krasota is seen to be rather selfless in her personality, not thinking about herself too much and being more concerned for other's wellbeing's, she doesn't appreciate awards too much, not seemingly able to take complements with much energy, and seeing most of her medals as just 'pieces of metal', an opinion especially influenced from events in her past.

Nevertheless, she takes her role seriously and sticks to the doctrine of marksmanship, she can interact with friends more cheerfully though, and she is well aware of her bountiful looks and natural beauty, liking to tease the male members of the team for fun, especially in more lewd situations.

## Relationships

* She considers Abe to be her closest friend by far, the two met just after Krasota was admitted into Chariot, the two share similar ideals and strive for the same goal of righteousness and preservation of peace and order of the vulnerable and downtrodden. Krasota knowing of Abe's skills in melee combat even gifted her a ballistic knife, originally bought by her from an American weapons market as a sign of their eternal friendship.
* Swordfish is another operative who she is generally favourable to, they do like to have a small amount of friendly competition to see who is the better shot, but in battle Krasota is always glad that Swordfish is backing her up with her own rifle.
* Krasota has some more lewd interactions with Whitney, she is well aware of the male operative's hunger for exotic women like herself and does like to give him some teases (only when Jackson and Dauphiné aren't constantly haggling him).
* Her interactions with Dimitri have also been very positive, the age difference making Krasota see him more as a wise figure and somebody to look up to, their common Russian blood, language and choices of music make them close in this regard as well.
* Her interactions with Jackson are a bit more tedious however, the American marksman does have a more archaic, stereotypical and downright naïve attitude towards Russians like her, she can get along with the American and doesn't let these opinions get in her way during operations, but she prefers that they stay at arm's length at times.
* She has never trusted Omega and Theta fully, not having too much of a good opinion of PMC's in general, nevertheless, due to her past acting experience, she had played as Omega in a movie roll involving a past event she and her daughters were involved in. Despite being good in her role, the physical differences between her and Omega meant a younger Theta didn't really appreciate her role.
* Błyskawica however has always seen Krasota with mistrust but neutrality, despite this she does try to act favourably to the Polish operative, even if this favourability is not reciprocated.
