[i]”There are two kinds of pride, both good and bad. 'Good pride' represents our dignity and self-respect. 'Bad pride' is the deadly sin of superiority that reeks of conceit and arrogance.” - John C. Maxwell[/i]

[b]Name:[/b] Nonna Anatolyevna Ivanova
[b]Age:[/b] 19
[b]Gender:[/b] Female
[b]Crest:[/b] Pride
[b]Nationality:[/b] Russian
[b]Appearance:[/b]
Nonna is an average looking woman, circa 173 centimeters tall. Coming from the port of Murmansk in the cold Siberia, her complexion is fairly pale. The girl weighs around 65 kilograms, yet doesn’t look overweight, but rather imposing.

[b]History:[/b]
Nonna comes from a relatively wealthy family with a military tradition reaching as far back as the Tsars. Her father always had a lot of goals for her to reach, and she could never shake the feeling that he always wanted a son instead. However she was able to meet the expectations put into her and eventually even set higher goals for herself. Nonna become determined to succeed in everything she set her mind to.

As expected in her family she joined the armed forces, being trained as a helicopter pilot. She is also rather successful in her hobbies, being a fan of chess, poker and above all else, fencing.

[b]Personality:[/b]
Due to her upbringing, Nonna is well mannered and won’t shy from anyone. That however doesn’t mean you are going to like what she says to you. She is downright cold most of the time, but under the ice is a heart. Normal people and their problems don’t interest her as much, but if you have something special or even unique about you, she just might come talk to you.

Her friends she considers family and will do much for them, but if you get on her bad side, you’ll find out why Stalingrad still strikes fear to the hearts of Germans to this day. Her biggest flaw would be her pride.

In her free time, she likes to equally engage both her body and her mind. A bit 'damaged' by her family's social status, she is slightly above the amusement of the 'peasants', choosing a bit eccentric - and expensive - hobbies.

She treats Pawnchessmon with respect and as an equal partner, both of them striving to be the best they can be. They both would have liked it better if they could do that in their own, but they grudgingly acknowledge their partnership makes both of them much stronger.

[b]Skills:[/b]
[i]Fencing:[/i] Nonna has been training her swordsmanship since her early teens, becoming rather proficient with the weapon.
[i]Tactician:[/i] Trained by chess, poker and military, Nonna can usually come up on top of statistically stronger opponents due to her admittedly ruthless plans.

[b]Equipment:[/b]
Whenever she passes into the digital world, she appears with a sword with the scabbard held on her belt. Her digivice is fused into the hilt of the sword.

[b]Species:[/b] [url=http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/PawnChessmon]Pawnchessmon (Black)[/url]
[b]Apparent gender:[/b] Female
[b]Appearance:[/b] See the wiki link
[b]Personality:[/b]
Pawnchessmon is a rather silent character, preferring to let the much more self confident Nonna to do the talking. Her faceless appearance also doesn't exactly help, and she could be mistaken for a statue for most of the time.

She is fiercely loyal to Nonna, to the point of following her and her commands even if she doesn't agree with them, because she considers her partner to be the 'king' piece on the board. Also, as a digimon taking on characteristics of a footman, she doesn't have too much qualms with using deadly force when necessary.

Her own ambitions are obstructed in mystery even to her partner, but she chose Nonna because she believes the girl can give her the strength to become the queen - the most powerful piece on the board.

In her later digivolutions, Pawnchessmon's moral compass starts improving, although as she enters the ranks of chess nobility, she isn't able to acquire black and white look on the world, always in need of intrigues. She does however get the strong urge to protect her own side in the conflict. When biomerged with Nonna as Queenchessmon, she is a very formidable opponent, strong both in body and in mind, and completely unforgiving of anything and anyone who crosses her path or touches anything dear to her.
