[edit] Sniper Widow's Personality Traits

As beautiful as she is deadly, Sniper Widow does not allow anyone to stand in her way. She is known to sit and wait for days to execute a target, and her shadow fall provides excelent cover.

Anastasia has no fears, and is not easily intimidated by anyone. Her methods may seem strange at times, but she knows what she is doing.

She is also very observant, and notices little things about a person and their behavior. She also has a pretty good memory as well.

Anastasia may sometimes be strict, but she is also very fair.

[edit] Past

[edit] A Jaded Angel

Shortly after becoming known as Sniper Widow, Anastasia joined up with Jaded Angels to further her training and new found abilities. She stayed with JA throughout her training in the Dark Arts up until she became a level 50 threat. It was while being with the the Jaded Angels that Anastasia began taking on various assignments throughout the Rogue Isles. She came across a young mutant by the name of Cho who assisted Anastasia on a few contracts. Sniper Widow began taking more and more assignments and eventually left Jaded Angels to form her own mercenary for hire agency. She hoped to find other professionals like herself and left Jaded Angels.

[edit] The Widow's Web

[edit] Forming The Web

Anastasia used the money she earned from her contracts and bought a building in Saint Martial. As construction of the Web began she searched for women who were dressed properly and went up to each individually informing them of her agency. She recruited a few though who would later turn out to be not very professional at all. Same was said about her allies. They made claims of being professional, but proved themselves childish. With the help of her dear friend Cho, Anastasia continues her work in the Isles looking for new talent, contracts, and friends.

[edit] The Finer Things In Life

Some would think Anastasia Petrova would be a gold digger. She has plenty of her own money, and she makes sure others know it. She over tips, buys expensive cars, clothing, and eats at only the finest restaurants. She can often be seen sporting an elegant Rolex That she is not shy about showing off. There is even a rumor that she owns a private jet kept in Cap Au Diable that she uses to fly to Paragon from time to time.

[edit] Anastasia's Condos

Her million dollar condo located in the Jackpot section of Saint Martial is a spacious 2 bedroom, 2 and a half bath two story unit. There is a great view looking out over the Golden Giza through it's floor to ceiling windows in the living room area.

Her condo in Paragon City is a bit smaller. Located in New Corinth of Talos Island, it is a 2 story apartment with a single bedroom and bath. The apartment has two floors including a loft area which is used as a reading room. The apartment over looks Spanky's Boardwalk and the beautiful sandy beach.

[edit] Anastasia's Car

Anastasia's Mercedes-Benz Brabus McLaren SLR.

Anastasia has purchased a new car, and of course it is another Mercedes. Getting rid of her old silver CLK and trading up for a McLaren SLR. Anastasia's sleek black Merceds-Benz is garage kept most of the time. When she has some free time on a nice day, she can be seen tearing through the streets of Saint Martial with the top down and a big grin on her face. Along with it's 20 inch wheels, lipstick-red leather interior, and carbon fiber trim, it packs a supercharged 5.5-liter V8 engine under the hood. How much did Anastasia pay for her sexy little drop top? Some things are better not told.

[edit] Anastasia's Clothing

Prada, Versace, Gucci are no strangers to Anastasia. All her life she had been on one battlefield to the next. She wore fatigues, and she still does when on an op or assignment. She has matured alot in her life and so has her taste for a more expensive lifestyle. As a business woman in the Rogue Isles, She needs to dress and look like a professional. In her line of work, she can afford such clothing.

[edit] Concept

I created Sniper Widow for Jaded Angels, a friends VG. I thought AR/ Dark would be a fun set to play. It has been, and I still occassionally enjoy playing her even though she is bugged. Name was simple, and I thought I'd give her double meaning to her name. Not only with the spider leap and strength, but also that her husbands both died. I used to have Ana in longer skirts, but I created her with spider like features. Hiding something that is somewhat important to her concept seemed counter productive. Sniper Widow is not a villain, but she does walk that dangerous line. If she needs to break a few laws in order to rescue a comrade, she will. If she needs to have someone hack a government's database to get a file on a war lord, she will.

[edit] Sniper Widow - Level 50 Assault Rifle/Dark Miasma Corruptor

When I created her I designed her to have spider like features. Her black hair, long legs, even her personality. I wanted to have some mystique to the character, and that is why she won't explain what she does. I made her somewhat deceptive, I am sure most have heard the phrase "Come in to my web, said the spider to the fly", and this is not only true for her as it is also for her agency. She is a business woman and a solider. This has caused some problems when people come up to her crying over something trivial and her telling them to get over it. Seriously, she watched her second husband shot down in front of her. If you go up to her and whine do not expect her to care.

[edit] Anastasia Petrova - Level 50 Mercenary/Traps Mastermind

I tried alot of Masterminds in the past, but never kept them past 32. Masterminds to me are boring to play. I've always been more the blood thirsty, do a hell of alot of damage, kill all type. Out of my other 50's Anastasia Petrova was the most painful to level.

I have decided to not post all information about this character on here. As I said I like her mystique, and she will share things about her past with certain people. You want to know more about her, RP it out of her. No one will ever have the whole story on this character. I know this has already caused alot of problems, but /I/ designed this character, and /I/ play her. I will no longer be RPing for other people, and if you do not like this character then do not talk to her. I have had to many people get upset that she has told others to stop crying. They take it OOC and it has been ridiculous.

"Someone said I was a drama queen, blah, blah, blah." This is an example of what not to come to Sniper Widow with.

"There is a War Lord in South America slaughtering hundreds." Ok, this is.

[edit] Footnotes

Anastasia is not the original Sniper Widow.
