HISTORICAL RECORD
Pravda is a relic from the super-human arms race of WWII, designed by the Soviets. She was created in 1939 and accelerated to the age of five by the scientists working on the project. Further age progression was deemed psychologically unsafe due to prior testing on other projects, so she and her nineteen other genetic siblings were placed in an advanced training facility somewhere outside of Moscow, with separate barracks for males and females. Each child was given a name based on a soldier's virtue, essentially designed to embody the characteristics and goals prized in a soldier. While not all of the children possessed the same abilities as Pravda, they were designed to operate as a cohesive team unit. Community and cooperation was stressed to the children, while at the same time martial combat and tactics were taught to them by spetsnaz operatives.
Over the next year they learned to serve in their capacity as soldiers for front line environments. At the age of six they were tentatively deployed in an attempt to stem the tide of the Nazi Ubermensch, serving largely as hidden escort to sensitive troop movements, as spies, and as assassins. Only two fatalities were confirmed from this unit (one from exposure to mustard gas and another from indirect explosive trauma) during the war, despite their involvement in some of the fiercest Soviet engagements. The war record of these meta-human Soviet operatives was the focus of intense secrecy and cover-up, especially after 1947. However, there are reports of some of the children interacting peacefully with soldiers fighting to defend France. There has not been public comment from any involved Heroes of the era into any interactions they may have had with the children.
Pravda was noted as being one of the soldiers that was destroyed, due to indirect explosive trauma. It is not known how she is alive today.
At the end of WWII, the 'Order of Victory' program was put in cryogenic stasis to keep the soldiers from deteriorating. It was also thought that the children, now physically 17 years of age, violated the ideals of Marxist Communism with their brazenly exceptional prowess. The project was abruptly scrapped and swept under the rug, and the soldiers sold off or left to die in faulty stasis facilities. Of the remaining 18 living soldiers, only three have surfaced in the area, including the hero Victor. It is currently unknown what occurred to the other soldiers, however at least one other soldier from the unit Valor-отвага has been observed in Millennium City.
