While she is ambitious, she’s loyal to her friends and wishes she could be more selfless. Natalia has a disillusioned outlook on life and is fairly mature and pragmatic as a result. [b]Biography[/b]: Growing up, Natalia was raised by a single mother that hardly paid any attention to her due to working many jobs. As such, she had to learn how to take care of herself from a young age. Natalia was somewhat bitter whenever she saw other children interacting happily with their parents, but she did also know her mother was trying her best. When Natalia was very young, she would be dropped off at her neighbor's house while her mother worked and then picked up again when her mother was done. As she got older, Natalia started going to school and then eventually picked up household chores to help her mother out. Living in a rural area, Natalia frequently wandered into the forest surrounding the town. There, Natalia aimlessly roamed and observed the world around her while lost in thought. What was she going to do with her life? Natalia knew nothing of her father and her mother was too busy trying to make ends meet. She had no good future prospects as it stood then. Natalia had seen the less fortunate, reeking of hopelessness and dejection, and had no desire to wind up like them. As a result, she became determined to never be put in a position where she had to rely on someone else’s mercy in order to live. She also wanted become someone who could support the people she cared about, namely her hardworking mother. With this resolve, her grades at school rose gradually and reached a point where she started excelling at academics. She applied for a scholarship to St. Fortuna's, an academy that churned out successful people. As luck would have it, she qualified for a scholarship to the prestigious institution.
