[b][color=9e0039]Name:[/color][/b] Katiya Sokolov, also referred to as Quadra. She, uh....Doesn't know how to feel about that name.

[b][color=9e0039]Age:[/color][/b] 25 (January 8th, 1998)

[b][color=9e0039]Gender:[/color][/b] Female

[b][color=9e0039]Sexuality:[/color][/b] Straight (granted, she's never been romantically involved with anyone...)

[color=9e0039]"My power is not complicated. Extra arms. Extra tall. Extra strong. Da?"[/color]

She isn't lying. As far as Mutants go, Katiya is pretty cut and dry; whatcha see is whatcha get. She's got quite the superhuman physique, which most can judge from her impressive musculature....And the fact she's nearly 11 feet tall. Stronger, faster, tougher; you name it, she's probably got it over any average schmuck. Not to mention her extra set of arms, which is helpful both in combat and more mundane tasks (you should see her cook; it's a sight to behold). The only thing you wouldn't be able to guess just from seeing her is a more...Internal oddity. Likely due to her physiology, she actually has two hearts to compensate. [/hider]

[hider=Power Grid]

[b][color=9e0039]Intelligence:[/color][/b] Katiya isn't an idiot, but she [i]is[/i] slow to grasp concepts. I mean, to this day, she still muddles up her English from time to time. Still, she's able to put her mind to something and figure it out when push comes to shove, and she [i]is[/i] a graduate of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. Definitely only places a 2 on the Grid, but she's far from dull.

[b][color=9e0039]Strength:[/color][/b] Now [i]this[/i] is where she excels! Sure, she's superhumanly strong, but double up on that with an extra pair of arms, and she can really show off. If using all her arms in tandem, she can mark onto Tier 5 of the Power Grid's Strength category, but even her general strength can be placed rather solidly in the mid-to-high Tier 4. Needless to say, pretty damn strong. Still, she rarely has to show off that much excessive strength with the kind of people she fights. 

[b][color=9e0039]Speed:[/color][/b] She might not be able to move hundreds of miles an hour or something silly like that, but make no mistake, this gal is fast for her size. Kat is certainly more agile than the average human, and combining that with her height and additional limbs, she has excellent mobility...In open areas. When things get cramped, it really sucks for her. So overall, she places in Tier 3, AKA Superhuman Speed, just....Very low on that list. 

[b][color=9e0039]Durability:[/color][/b] Kat ain't invincible, but she can definitely take more punishment than most. Her skin's thick enough to shrug off most forms of blades, bludgeons, etc, and can even stop some lower-caliber bullets. But even when something breaks her skin, it'll find it hard to break through her dense muscle, and even harder to shatter through her rigid bones. So while she isn't no Luke Cage, you'll find her hard to keep down. This places her around the higher-tier of 3 for Durability. 

[b][color=9e0039]Fighting Skills:[/color][/b] If you were worried about her raw strength before, you're probably scared to realize it's backed by some impressive skill as well. Xavier's place is quite varied in its lessons, after all...She isn't quite some combat wizard or anything, but she's well trained, has experienced proper combat, and is well-learned in the martial arts of Krav Maga and Russian Sambo. She certainly places well into Tier 4 of Fighting Skills. [/hider]

[b][color=9e0039]Weaknesses:[/color][/b] While Katiya is quite skilled, it is not to an insane degree; there are many others who could outmatch her in skill, and it could grant them an advantage, no matter how slight. Additionally, her power can be watered down to 'superhuman physiology', and all the weaknesses that can apply to something so simplistic. She has no ranged options (beyond chucking things at people, which, to be fair, she can do pretty well), isn't tough enough to withstand heavy forms of assault, like explosives, without sustaining serious injury, and....Well, I hate to bring it up, but she [i]is[/i] a bit slow. Some trickery and underhanded moves might take you a long way against her. 

[b][color=9e0039]Appearance:[/color][/b] The first thing you'll notice about her is probably the height, then the abs, and then her actual face. That's what happens when you stand at a staggering 10'8 ft. of height and are built like a chiseled statue of a Goddess. She clearly keeps herself in shape, judging from her...Ahem...Impressive physique. Her hair and eyes are both naturally a shade of dark red, and Kat's hair cascades down to her waist. Which, given her height, is a lotta hair. Her hair appears unkempt, though it has a sort of untouched natural beauty to it. 

Clothing-wise, Katiya likes to keep things simple. If it's not too cold (and trust me, she can take a lotta cold), she's usually wearing a red tracksuit, underneath which is nothing but a black crop top, showing off her lower abdomen. Beyond that, she wears red shorts, and usually a pair of black and red running shoes. If things get too nippy for her, she'll change out the tracksuit for a grey coat and red scarf, and the shorts for a pair of fur-cuffed black jeans. You can bet your ass Kat's still wearing that crop top though. 

[b][color=9e0039]Other:[/color][/b] In spite of her many years in the states adjusting to English, she still has a very clear Russian accent. She also occasionally jumbles the two languages together when she can't remember the word for something or other. 

[hider=Katiya's Story]

[color=9e0039]"It was not in my plans to be streetsweeping heroine. But things get complicated. Professor Xavier warned me of this..."[/color]

Katiya Sokolov was born and raised in Novi Grad, Sokovia, though her upbringing was anything but smooth, given that she was born as a small giantess with an extra set of arms. Unbeknownst to her or her family at the time, Kaitya was a Mutant. What they did know at the time was that she had to be hidden away from the world; in her parents' minds, there was no way she could reasonably grow up in society as she was, and even beyond that, there were no doubts that there were people who would seek out individuals such as herself...They didn't want that for their daughter. 

So, most of Katiya's early life was spent in her home, being schooled by her parents when they were available, and learning to adapt to her....Unique condition. By the time she was 17, she was nearly nine foot tall, so you can imagine how awkward things were for her in a small Sokovian homestead. 

Things changed when Ultron attacked. The family had to flee; they know they did. But having to expose their daughter like this was their worst nightmare. But Katiya took it in stride. She had always been raised knowing that one day she'd have to 'face the music', as it were, and in her mind, there was no better time than this. Thus, the 15-year-old Katiya Sokolov strode out to the streets of Novi Grad for the first time, and did only what her upbringing demanded of her; she saved lives. 

Her physique, while not extraordinarily superhuman, was super enough, as she darted through the streets with her family, saving stragglers as they avoided the onslaught of the metal menace. Before long, they found themselves on the Helicarrier with thousands of other refugees, who were thankfully not in the mood for questions, given the situation. 

Afterwards, she was approached by S.H.I.E.L.D., who offered to take her under their wing, since she showed promise with her actions on this day. However, she refused; while she was all too happy to do a good deed, she had little interest in becoming absorbed by heroics. She just wanted to live her life, preferably in peace. 

Thus, her family, once all was said and done, moved to New York as a fresh start to their lives. Of course, though, her actions in Novi Grad followed her here. Though, thankfully, for the better. She was eventually reached out to by a member of an institute known as Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. While her family was skeptical, they eventually budged; there, she could receive a proper education, and perhaps learn more about herself. 

And that she did. Katiya's time at the school was nothing less of amazing, learning about what she was, learning things her parents could never teach her, it was incredible, and she loved every second of it. Things got quite hectic halfway through her time there once the snap occurred, with half the student body disappearing in front of everyone's eyes....Thankfully, though, Professor Xavier was spared this, and managed to bring an uneasy peace to the student body, in spite of everything. 

However, by the time Katiya had left the School for Gifted Youngsters behind with her graduation in 2020, she came to a rude awakening upon coming home; her mother and father were gone. She didn't take it well, but eventually pulled herself up. They would want her to keep going, no matter what, and she was determined to do so. At first she tried some odd jobs, but Kat began her first job that stuck in a grocery store nearby her parents' small apartment (after having to play catch-up with a [i]lot[/i] of rent). The atmosphere of the place was quite stifled, what with the fact the owner's daughter had apparently been dusted....Still, it was good work (at least in Kat's humble opinion, given this was her first job ever, and stocking shelves when you have four arms is easy as pie), and it kept her going, working there for a little over a year. Truth be told, she would've probably considered a new job, if not for the fact she had no idea what else to do, and it paid the bills. She couldn't argue.

But here was when things truly began; 2023, the year when the Avenger Tony Stark, otherwise known as Iron Man, made the sacrifice play for the whole world, reversing the Snap of 2018. So many people came back. It should've been happy...But so much soured the experience. Over those five years, the world had moved on without these people, and confusion took hold. However, it was a far more personal matter for Katiya, because when she went back to the apartment expecting her parents....They were nowhere to be found. 

Confused, sad, and without anywhere to search for answers, Kat took a leap of logic; if there were people who would know about disappearances, it would be those who skulked the shadows of New York. Thus, she took to the streets as a vigilante, hoping to find the answers she needs. 

....And helping people never hurt anyone except wicked men.
