Characters Biggest Strength: Undying Hatred for the Western World
Characters Biggest Weakness: Antisocial and mentally not fully stabilized (yet)
Motivations and DesiresPrimary Goal: Freeze! Freeze! Freeze! All that is hot shall grow cold! The whole world shall be imprisoned in an everlasting winter!
Secondary Goal: Support the SS in their attempts at World Destruction.
Fears: Vodka and big men with big moustaches with thick russian accents aka people who look and sound remotely like her father
PowersPrimary Source of Powers: The Pseudo-Gene
- Power 1: General Winter's Child
Effects: Within a 10 meter radius around her, everything cools down considerably towards the freezing point of 0°C.
Weaknesses: Heat Sources. They will counteract her power in their own heating radious.- Power 2: Body of Ice
Effects: Due to excessive Soviet-SS experimentation, her body has grown cold as ice and stopped aging, because she can barely be still classified as a human and instead more as a creature made of ice, taking on the guise of a human. She can turn any of her body parts into a very durable ice and give them different shapes, form them at will. Fatal injuries do not kill her, and can be healed by simply consuming or coming into contact with water, aka for example breaking off half of her head will not stop her and she will continue and can heal anytime by absorbing and freezing some water. Absored water can also be used by her to form actual hand held weapons or armour or disproportionally enlarge limbs of hers etc. They turn brittle and melt though once she does not touch these anymore.
Weaknesses: Heat. That's it, so simple. Although her aura of cold protects her from the heat of usual weather and some conventional house heat sources, strong heat directly applied against her will do a good job at melting her. Sure, she won't be dead, as as long as the water still exists, she can potentually freeze again but what keeps someone from just keeping the water constantly heated?

History and Bibliography: It all started in 1928, when Lilia was born in a small village near Leningrad to a completely normal family of Russian farmers. Already back then she was different. The cold aura surrounding her killed her mother during her birth. Her father never got over it and started drinking. He had loved his wife very much and she had just taken her from him. Never did he stop to think that she didn't have any control over her actions at that time. He simply made her life hell, beat her, insulted her etc. And even in the rest of the village she was disliked. The other adults avoided her and the children, when they did not avoid her, mocked her.
But then when she had just turned 13, the war broke out. The Germans penetrated deep into the motherland and soon the village saw the german frontline forces passing through. And it actually mattered to her. Because when everyone had turned away from her, she had instead turned to the state, starting to love the motherland and it's glory. And now these filthy fascist pigs were here and the heroes of the Proletariat were on the retreat. What was even worse was, that her father embraced the Nazis. He collaborated with them, sold out fellow russians and received new farming equipment straight from Germany. It was then that Lilia ran away into the woods.
There she met a group of soviet soldiers led by a young commissar. Guess what, she joined them and soon they performed raids together onto nazi supply trains and other installations. It was a wonderful time for Lilia,
in freedom, respected by those around her for her powers as well as learning to more properly utilize them. And as bonus she got to slaughter fascists. During these years of war, she and Sascha, the commissar, developed feelings for each other. A young love. Young and innocent. Only to be crushed shortly after by the brutality of reality. During a raid on a Nazi supply depot, Lilia met her father again, who had apparently joined the RONA and just happened to be at that depot. Their meeting didn't go too well, her father insulting her, blaming her for her mother's demise, for having made him a man who was being made fun of, for having forced him to join the Nazis and for now dragging his name through the dirt again, because she was fighting those he worked for. She broke down, sobbing, crying and when he was about to kill her, Sascha showed up.
And yet, despite being a man of relatively old age, her father had been a good hunter, having served in the Imperial Army long ago as a sniper as well. A single shot was all it took and a blood red rose blossomed on Sascha's chest. With a look of bewilderment and disbelief on his face, Sascha sank to his knees, staring with unseeing eyes into the sun. It was this sight that made her snap, flooded her with rage and triumphed over her fear. She rose up, her hand turning into pure, glistening ice, before burying it deeply inside her father's chest.
She spent the rest of the evening hugging Sascha's quickly freezing body and crying, but eventually her comrades managed to drag her away from him. Shortly after, the Red Army forced the Germans back and their area was liberated. The Communists quickly saw her potential and she was taken by the NKWD and brought to secret facilities deep in the Ural mountains. They experimented with her abilities, experimented on her body,
trained her in fighting techniques, sabotague, infiltration, weapon handling. They molded her personality into that of a cold and heartless killer, brainwashing her over and over to eliminate all traces of her past, all traces of feelings within her. Once the war ended, it was the SS which had switched sides that continued the program the Soviets had begun, honing her skills even more and turning her into a weapon to be used whenever necessary. They also came up with the idea of hibernation so that she would last longer, using the logic that since she had such a high affinity for the cold, they could just freeze her up and melt the ice away again when she was needed.
And that's what happened. During the Cold War she was for the most time frozen and every now and then unfrozen to be sent on a mission. Again and again and again untill the end of the Cold War and then the end of the Soviet Union. In the Chaos of the Perestroika, the facility in which she was kept vanished from the radar of the new Russian state. But she was not forgotten. The SS started an operation to salvage their assets in the Soviet Union and retrieved her. Once again she was experimented upon and brainwashed, although this time the Nazis didn't mask their intentions behind communist ideals and simply made her yet another one of their operatives. And they also managed to expand her powers, even stopped her aging process although she lost most of what had formerly made her human.
