| Trivia
|
- Nika is a devout Catholic. Utterly devoted. Scarily devoted.
- She is almost as devoted to her faith as she is her father, Daniil Rumyantsev.
- Her dad is totally played by Liam Neeson.
- It is very likely that anyone with ties to Sumaru PD have access to her "colorful" history of misdemeanors and one assault charge.
- Her course of study at Sumaru University is Advertising with emphasis on Design.
- Her ties to Strega are with the Yakuza family, the Kikuchi. They do Strega favors in turn for favors.
- So yes, she is Yakuza.
- While she can speak Japanese, she is not entirely fluent; she still speaks with in broken Japanese on occasion.
- She is fluent in Russian (obviously) and comfortable with English--however broken it may be.
- Her weapon, 'combat shears,' are a pair of curved daggers connected at the neck of the blade's hilts by a wing nut-like fastener to create a lethal pair of working scissors about the size of gardening shears.
- She is trained in Boevoe Sambo and some System techniques thanks to her father, Daniil.

| Profile And Skills

|
The daughter of a former Russian Spetznas dishonorably discharged from Russian military in the late nineties during the Chechen war, Nika's life has been wrought with one hardship after another. Having moved from St. Petersburg at a young age, adapting to Japanese society was also difficult for Nika Rumyantseva. Yet despite the rough spots--which include a few brushes with the law and making for a colorful rap sheet--she has seemingly changed for the better. An active college student at Sumaru University, she's outgoing, cheerful and the life of the party, a fashionista and certainly an interesting character thanks to her exotic features. But beneath all the makeup, designer shades and expensive clothes lies something deeply chaotic and unhinged, a girl that is known for keeping some rather peculiar and unscrupulous company and possessing some peculiar habits.
Killer Queen, Finds the "FUN" in DYSFUNCTIONAL, In God We Trust, Interests Include: Fashion, Religion, Torture, Using and Abusing, Mildly Masochistic, Supremely Sadistic, My Father, My Hero, Carving Her Own Future--Literally, Her Love For You Is Like A Truck, OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!

"I am thou... thou art I...
"The Red Queen, Queen of Hearts--our enemies will be crushed beneath our heel. Can you feel it..?
"Fury moving forward, patience moving back--when the time comes, you too shall know her."
The opposing piece to Wonderland's bizarre White Queen, the Red Queen is passion and fury without restraint to the White Queen's puzzling nature and barely-contained madness. She, the Red Queen is the embodiment of a cruel monarch, the mad Queen that rules her land in fear with the guillotine. She lacks pity for her subjects, holds no quarter and is very much like a child in her irrational behavior and temper and outbursts of anger. Against the White Queen, the two are forever engaged in battle, opposing one another for as long as they exist.
Over time, and in the various re-imaginings and retelling of Lewis Carroll's Alice saga, the Red Queen has become synonymous with the Queen of Hearts, evolving from her stuffy, traditional monarch role into the role of the truly Mad Queen, a woman driven by her intense, unbridled passion, anger and switch-quick temper. Where the White Queen suppresses her madness and seeks to deny that which ultimately defines her, the Red Queen relishes in it. Her madness and fury drive and inspire her acts of cruelty upon her most devoted subjects. The Red Queen cannot and will not ever understand the White Queen's perspective in the game; those who are held back do not succeed or restrain themselves, after all. They are only doomed to fail, as they are too weak to grasp victory in the Game.
Red Queen needs no King; as such, she fits perfectly the role of Reversed Emperor largely because she is in a seat of power and gladly abuses her power over those she governs. Her rule is THE rule, and there is no King in her way to hold her back and keep her madness in check. Like the role of the Queen in chess, she is boundless and without restraint, THE piece capable of the most action and movement on the board, her territory. Though the Red Queen knows well the rules of the chessboard, she is glad to forgo them in favor of advancing her ambitions and desires, crushing whoever and whatever along the way, no matter the price.
SENSE: The feeling of absolute dread, like staring Death itself in the face. A sensation that inspires a gut-wrenching fear, makes one's stomach twist and break out in cold chills. It is as if witnessing the coming of the End, before it even begins.
SMELL: The scent of sweet raspberry and strawberry tarts and Earl Grey tea. Underlying the delicious smell there's a scent of sharp copper, the familiar scent of blood.
SOUND: The sound of many, many clocks chiming at irregular intervals. The sound of metal grinding against a whet stone.

- I - THE MAGICIAN
- II - THE HIGH PRIESTESS
- V - THE HIEROPHANT
- Hideo Kuromiya: An administrator in the Kikuchi-kai in Sumaru City and an old family friend of Daniil Rumyantsev--and one of the very few people Nika respects. He has aided her and her father through their worst times, and has since provided her and her wounded father with a comfortable living--for a price, of course. Still, he is very loyal to the Kikuchi-kai and an honorable figure within; many shatei and kyodai of the Kikuchi-kai look up to him. He also gave Nika her "interesting" weapon upon her official initiation into the family. she kind of has a crush on him, too
- XX - JUDGMENT
- Daniil Rumyantsev: The light of Nika's life, her entire existence, despite the horrible things said and done by him to her, she utterly loves and adores him. A former Spetznas soldier who was dishonorably discharged after 'a thing happened' in Chechnya, he spent most of his life lamenting himself, his lot in life and everything in between. A chance encounter with an old friend and Yakuza named Hideo Kuromiya led him to a life of living as a merc for hire--until he was assaulted and crippled by a rival family bent on revenge. Now a shell of his former self (once again), he borders on the brink of self-destruction and madness, barely kept in line by his ever-loving and doting daughter, who only wants to see him return to the strong man he was once before.
