Background

Yelena has little background to speak of. She was taken from her family when she was three years of age, something she is determined to forget. She claims that she was born when she came to the Red Room, born walking and talking and ready to fight. Her training was first in line with that of other athletes destined for the Olympics but she received secondary psychological priming to prepare her for the shift into full-time training as a weapon.

The Red Room has always been proud of Yelena. Some even fear her ferocious dedication and her willingness to manipulate and kill in order to succeed. Yelena has been going on solo assignments since she was twelve years old, her first assassination took place under the watch of one of her tutors when she was only seven — she used a sniper rifle to kill a Russian official who witnessed one clandestine exchange too many. Yelena will be activated at any time, for simple extractions to complex assassinations — whenever her mother wants the job completed by her most devoted daughter.

IC Events

Traits

Powers

• RED GIFT: The Red Room program has gifted Yelena with body that resists damage and heals quickly. She is not bulletproof and a fall from high enough will kill her, but she is far more resilient than a normal human. She is also immune to most disease and ages very slowly.
• RELENTLESS TRAINING: Yelena has been subjected to relentless training since her childhood. This, combined with the serum has made her physically exceptional: agile, dexterous, and capable of maintaining peak performance for hours. The training and the serum together have made her single-minded, able to focus through excruciating pain and even to the point of death.

Skills

• ATHLETE: Before she became a secret weapon, Yelena was trained as an Olympic gymnast. She has exceptional control of her body and incredible mental discipline.
• INGENUE: Yelena is particularly skilled at, and revels in, the art of attraction. Everything about her screams innocence, when she wants it to, and she quickly puts people at ease and off guard. She has managed to seduce, in one way or another, everyone from young mothers to very elderly men. She is an excellent manipulator and liar.
• WEAPON OF CHOICE: Yelena is the Motherland's weapon of choice. She is a skilled infiltrator and assassin. Another graduate has been used for the undercover long-game, like poisoning the water. Yelena is a blade, inserted quickly and silently between the ribs to pierce the heart — of a person or a country, it matters little to her. Yelena is able to use multiple modern weapons, fly planes and helicopters, kill a man with her bare hands, drive a car at top speed under fire, make a bomb, brew a poison, leap from a plane, walk a tightrope, win a bar fight, dance the tango, pick a lock, and even stage her own death. Her weapons of choice are the sniper rifle and the garrote.

Advantages

• BRACELETS: Yelena has a set of high tech "bracelets" that she wears with her usual Black Widow uniform. The wrist cartridges contain tools such as stiletto blades, tear-gas capsules, smoke bombs, a grappling cable, a radio, a micro EMP pulse generator, and an electroshock device.
• PATRIOT: Others may love their country, Yelena genuinely considers Russia to be her mother. Her love for her country makes it possible for her to be single-minded and devoted in a way other people might lack. She truly desires Russia's love and approval in a way that she wants nothing else in the world.
• PET: Yelena has multiple patrons in Russia. These government officials and military officers are fond of her in the same way that one might be fond of a favored gladiator or fighting dog — or a mistress. Her patrons send her gifts, provide her with money, and do her many favors. All she needs to do is ask. In return, she might do them a little favor herself once in a while. It's all part of the game.
• RUSSIA'S DAUGHTER: Equipment, funding, backup…there is nothing that Russia will not do for her favored daughter. She has handlers who, while they may not love her, depend on her success for their own happiness, even their lives. Between Russian resources and those of their allies, there is little Yelena could want for at any time, anywhere in the world.

Flaws

• MISANTHROPE: Life, and the Red Room, have made Yelena misanthropic. She assumes no good in anyone, trusts no-one. While she doesn't necessarily enjoy killing, she is also incapable of attachment. Other people in the world are to be used and maybe pitied a little but never love. People disgust her with their weakness and their wants.
• SECOND CHILD: Yelena is the second child of the Red Room. She knows she will always come second to her "sister". She pretends not to resent this but it does make her fearful because she is still expendable.
