Fictional character biography
Katarina was born in the ex Soviet Republic known today as Ukraine. Raised to become a super soldier, she was taken away from her mother and grew up in an army camp alongside others children like her. Soon, experiments were made on these children to increase their strength and durability. However, these experiments were disastrous as the great majority of the children seem to have prematurely died, and soon Katarina seemed to be the only child left still alive as she had no contact with others anymore.
In 1985, the Cold War between the USA and the Soviet Union was about to end, and the super soldier project was abandoned as financial funds were cut. A year later, due to Chernobyl disaster, the red army had to transfer from Uzyn, where Katarina lived, to Moscow. This also signed death of the super soldier project as many documents were lost during the transfer. During her time in Moscow, Katarina's life however has greatly improved. If she was still under the protection of the Red Army, she received a better treatment, experiments were less and less frequent, and she managed to make friend with other teenager there.
After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, an American group known as The Middle heard about the super soldier project and tried to reactivate it. After having acquired the former base of Uzyn, The Middle took back the 4 last project super soldier survivors. In 1995, experiments then started again on Katarina and new children, but as products injected were imperfect, a high number of children died in the process. The next year was even worse as it left only one child alive, Katarina. A conflict soon appeared between 'The Middle Director, based in the USA, and scientists, led by Igor Silaev, in Ukraine, leading them to secretly avoid dangerous products. Upon Silaev's supervising, Katarina's health quickly went better. In 1998, The Middle started to be less involved in the project and Silaev made his mind to free Katarina. He and his colleagues then started to teach Katarina Russian, Mathematics, History... and English.
However, in 2002, The Middle came back, harder than ever, as now the FSB was also interested in the super soldier project. Before being executed by FSB, Silaev took contact with the man that put the American group on its knees the past four years, Jared Forrester. Jared quickly arrived in Ukraine and kidnapped Katarina in front of the eyes of FSB agents. The two managed to escape by boat through Turkey and Greece, however leading Katarina to become sick. They finally ended in a small beach in Sferracavallo, Sicilia, where they met Angela Cavenaghi.
After having rest there for a few weeks, Katarina moved again to finally arrive in France in September 2003. A year later, she decided to follow Jared in his war against The Middle. The two finally were able to defeat the group in November 2005 after Jared had stolen a colossal amount of money from it, placing it in very serious financial troubles and leading to the resignation of its board. The couple went back to France where they chose to leave alongside their friend by offering them a brand new building with the funds Jared had stolen. One year later, Katarina also gained superpowers after she and her friends found an old magical artifact. After having learned how to master them, she and her new husband decided to leave France for Millennium City where troubles had appeared, enjoining her friends to follow her, which they did. There, she took the alias of Katyusha.
