Name: Natalia Halden Age: 32 Sex: Female Archetype: Mastermind Personality: Natalia is a control freak. She's comfortable when she's in charge of the situation, and does everything she can to remain that way. Slightly arrogant at times, she has complete faith in herself. Although she knows that she is committing crimes, she still considers herself a good guy. As far as Natalia is concerned, it isn't her fault that the police and their justice system are useless, at least without a little help. She expects trust and obedience from those she works with, and becomes quite annoyed when it isn't given. She has problems (many of which are pride- related), but she refuses to acknowledge them. She hates showing weakness, and will never admit that someone is smarter than her. Fortunately for her, most people aren't. Appearance: Natalia has dark, curly hair and blue eyes. She rarely smiles, unless it's for a cover. Practicality is of far greater importance to her than appearance, and she generally wears professional garb. Standing about 5'8, she isn't generally imposing. However, she is perfectly capable of intimidation. She has a well-built muscular structure due to her training with the FBI. Weapons and Equipment: 9mm handgun, standard police issue Skills: Brilliant Tactician Knowledge of Police Procedure Undercover Experience Weaknesses: Extreme Distrust of Police Minimal Computer Skills (She can use Google, that's about it.) Over-Confidence Obsessed With Control History: Natalia was a cop. One of the best, in fact. She worked with the FBI for 6 years as a field agent, and at some point was assigned to hunt down most of her current team members. She was a highly respected member of the force. That is, until her partner was shot. She searched for the shooter for nearly a year, but to no avail. Her success in the past contrasted with her failure in this case not only messed with her head, but made those around her suspicious. The fact that they had both been in line for the same promotion did not help her case. Natalia was accused of murder. Still, she believed in the justice system. There was no concrete evidence against her, mainly because she hadn't done it. When the trial came, however, the prosecution had fabricated all kinds of evidence. They said that her gun matched his wounds, that they had been arguing before heading out on the mission. None of this was true. Her own lawyer did just as much lying to combat it. While she was eventually acquitted, the whole process disgusted her. The system had let her down. It was then that Natalia began looking into other cases, solved and unsolved. The more she saw, the more horrified she became. Rich people got away with murder in exchange for information. Smuggling rings were discovered but never broken down. This agency that she had been a proud part of for so long was useless. She even found evidence that suggested her partner had found corruption within the agency itself. That was why he had been killed, and she had been framed. Revolted by the people she had once trusted with her life, she resigned. She would never trust her government again. So she lost herself in misery and confusion, desperately trying to regain control of everything, her own life included. She waited for some way to make up for the corruption of the system, some way to actually help people.
