If you could get rid of yourself just once, the secret of secrets would open to you. The face of the unknown, hidden beyond the universe would appear on the mirror of your perception.

Russian folklore contains tales of a maiden of similar name and temperament. The legend describes her as a brave warrior-princess famed for her beauty and cunning at containing a terribly powerful sorcerer from wreaking havoc on the world. When a well-meaning prince releases her captive to do great ill, the sorcerer abducts her, and a great, harrowing adventure begins. Death and trickery separate the lovers, and the eponymous heroine must confront the immortal herself. At the end of the story, the tsar and the princess are reunited, but at what cost? Such enigmatic tales aren't without basis, played out again and again.

Sometime in the autumn of 2017, Zhenya arrived in Fort Brunsett. What's a Russian expat doing in the heart of Vermont? Ask her reasons and she gives any number for what attracted her here. She has family in the area. She followed a dream or fate. Could have something to do with a tall, dark, and handsome man and his fluffy white dog.

Upon swearing her allegiance to the Freehold, she maintains a relatively low profile, though for how long? Word may whisper out of freeholds from Boston to Berlin about a nebulous Vizier attached to the Winter Court, an expert on the invisible world with a taste for spending more time in dreams than awake.

She frequents the Cat-22 Collective as often as she wanders around Tamarack Falls. In January 2018, she assumed ownership of Olympus, a bookstore with an occult slant and some of the best Russian tea around. With the spring solstice on the rise, she emerged as the elect of the Watchers, appropriate for a dreamer.

Roleplay Hooks
Vizier

Above all, Zhenya serves as a mystic adviser to the Freehold. She unsurprisingly keeps mum on most of her abilities, but she possesses a deep and varied background in matters occult and fae. She keeps her sanity by aiding other Lost leaders, so bring her your problems.

Dreamwalker

Dreams in all aspects -- oneiromancy, combat, and shaping -- are her bread and butter. As Elect of the Watchers, she rarely turns down opportunities to delve into the silver sea.

Counsellor

Who better to keep personal secrets than one of Winter's sorceresses? Zhenya has considerable experience in delicately handling magical, psychological, and emotional trauma inflicted by the Gentry and the Hedge.

Autumn

A mutual interest in mystical matters naturally aligns her with the Court of Fear.

Russian

She shares her name with a mythical Russian sorceress queen. An honest-to-goodness firebird keeps her company. Then there's that soft, crisp accent that makes even ordering drinks sound ominous and portentous.

Spy Games

A woman with her face and a very different name played a game of cloak and dagger during the Cold War. She was an expert at infiltration, subterfuge, and information gathering, operating in some of the most dangerous venues in Europe. The talent never fades away, does it?
