[b][color=add3ff]Personal Style:[/color][/b] Novikova has never been one for outfits that are bright or flashy. She likes to wear muted clothing that is comfortable, suited for staying up late at night studying or walking in a chilly New England winter. She typically wears black if she can, with her long silver hair placed in pigtails. On occasion, she dyes her silver hair blonde in an attempt to fit in, but the dye never lasts very long and it's a bit of a hassle for her to keep up with. Besides, she actually likes her silver hair. It's different.[hr][center][img]https://s9.postimg.cc/5zgukibbj/original.gif[/img][/center][hr][h3][b][i][color=add3ff][center]Psychology[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3]

[b][color=add3ff]Sexuality:[/color][/b] Homosexual 
[b][color=add3ff]Relationship Status:[/color][/b] Married to Maria Novikova (née Smith)
[b][color=add3ff]Personality:[/color][/b] At her core, Novikova is a brilliant and dedicated young woman who will stop at nothing to achieve her goals. While this may make her appear to be the ideal agent, she does not allow others to tell her what the ultimate objective must be. She determines for herself what is right and wrong in a situation, often becoming more loyal to those she cares about than the cause itself. Friends win over ideology, every time. Yet when she is committed to your cause, she is a terrific ally. Her resourcefulness and use of strategy make her a formidable foe, and she does not hold back. 

More than just an agent, Novikova is also a funny gifted individual with a clear dry sense of humor. She enjoys saying moderately ridiculous things with a steady voice and neutral expression, only to crack the slightest smile after seeing the looks of shock come over people. Her curiosity drives her choices often times more than her ambition, as Novikova wants to learn everything there is that she can about the world - and maybe even save it in the process. She isn't a huge people person, but she finds fulfillment and purpose in helping others through her gifts.

[b][color=add3ff]Why did you want to become an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.?:[/color][/b] Novikova always knew that she would end up doing some sort of science - she never felt happier than when she was studying physics. However, as a budding nuclear physicist, she had three real choices. She could go into academia, where there isn't a lot of positions or funding; she could go into industry, where rather than using her knowledge to help people she'd just be contributing to some corporation's bottom line; or she could go work for the government. S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists get to see technology from other planets and encounter people with extraordinary abilities - it made her choice relatively easy. Plus, S.H.I.E.L.D. isn't too weird about her Russian heritage, and in this political climate, it's something she is thankful for. 

[b][color=add3ff]General History:[/color][/b] Novikova's parents divorced soon after she was born. Her father, a physicist specializing in radiophysics, was a second generation Russian immigrant and her mother was a WASP. Her father moved to Russia after her mother remarried when she was hardly two years old, leaving Novikova with only dim memories of her father. He wrote to her often however in Russian, trying to teach her about her heritage and culture despite the geographical divide. Her mother had different ideas and wanted Novikova to have a traditional American upbringing, with her step-father sharing that wish.

He was from old money and loved Novikova as if she was his own, sending her to the very best private schools in Connecticut. And while Novikova loved him, she missed her father and found that through studying physics, she could feel closer to him. She was something of a child genius, skipping several grades and earning her doctorate degree in Nuclear Physics by the time she was eighteen years old. Her father flew in for her graduation ceremony and it was one of the happiest memories of her life.

Of course, she didn't make very many friends that way. She had a few half-siblings that tended to tease her and make fun of her, especially for her natural silver hair. Her mother had suspected that Novikova might have been a mutant, but no powers showed up around the right age for it, so she thought nothing more of it. Some people just had silver hair at a young age. She spent so much time alone that she taught herself some random skills, such as picking locks and how to roller skate. It was a way to pass time. 

After she was approached by S.H.I.E.L.D. and committed to become an agent, she finally was among people who she could properly relate to. Novikova became really good friends with her roommate and some other students at the academy, finally achieving a stable social life. She excelled academically as always through hard work and dedication, proving to be a resourceful student. She managed to apply for graduation from the academy two years early in the four year program, aiming to be placed with a team in the field to work as their science expert.

Joining the Secret Warriors, she helped in the war against HYDRA shortly after her best friend, Sparky, was trapped in the Quantum Realm. Unable to accept her friend's fate, she began looking into illegal technology and communicating with the disgraced Dr. Pym about one of his projects - Project Ultron. The two of them managed to get it to work, saving Sparky but dooming the world. After the team managed to undo the costly mistake via time travel and still save Sparky and the others, Novikova was fired by Acting Director Maria Hill. Fortunately, Dr. Pym hired her on as an investigator at Pym Tech.[hr][center][img]https://i.postimg.cc/tgW3C6vF/original.gif[/img][/center][hr][h3][b][i][color=add3ff][center]Extras[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3]

[i]"We have a long standing agreement."[/i]
After meeting Maria in her History of SHIELD course, Novikova became quick friends with her - as well as something a little extra. It's nice to have someone to let out a little bit of stress with, knowing that there's no emotional attachment to compliment it. It wasn't like Novikova had time for a girlfriend anyways, given that she pushed herself through Sci-Tech just as she did with everything in her life in order to graduate early.

[i]"The race for limitless energy has ended. Please see exhibit A: Agent Bautista."[/i]
Despite Niah's consistent attempts to befriend Novikova, a friendship has yet to appear between the two of them. Novikova is aware that she intimidates Niah and privately finds it amusing, given that she hasn't made an effort to scare her or anything. The tenseness in their relationship entirely arises from this perception and Novikova has no inclination to rectify it.

[i]"She's the up spin to my down spin."[/i]
Sparky and Novikova have been roommates at SHIELD Academy since Novikova's first year. Novikova, with a bit of help from Sparky, managed to jump ahead a year, in order to graduate a year early. With both of them having been outcasts prior to coming to Sci-Tech, it's easy for them to relate with each other and they've become best friends because of it. They took almost all of the same classes together and killed at the final project in Holographic Engineering IV.

[i]"Это потому, что я русский?"[/i]
Although Novikova has no proof, she can't help but suspect Z's distance towards her is related to her Russian heritage. And that bothers her to no end. Despite never having lived in Russia, Novikova is very proud of her culture and her country. Her mother had offered to change Novikova's name to Dominique Bernard when she was little and she refused. The more Novikova senses the weirdness with Z is because she's Russian, the more Novikova actively considers playing more and more into Russian stereotypes as her own form of petty revenge.
