History
Date of Birth: January 30th, 1895
Home: Vyazma, Smolensk Oblast, Russia
Family: Remov Karl Yakovich and Nessia Petrovna (parents), Nikolay Karlovich (older brother), Demian Karlovich (older brother), Aleksandra "Alya" Karlovna (birthname)
Embrace: External Supernatural Trigger (born into a well-off Russian-Jewish family, went to Moscow University and soon turned to Marxism, and became an earnest supporter, activist, and revolutionary of the Bolshevik movement; her sire Embraced her during the Revolution, offering her the power to help overthrow the corruption of the old ways, both Kindred and humans), 1999
Sire: Mirnov Artemovich
The Test: Trial by Influence (despite the trial by fire that the Russian Revolution entailed, she always leaned towards more political science and was made a commissar after the revolution)
Comrades: Tristan Blue
Key Event #1: Awe & Wonder (Alya remained loyal to the clan throughout the entire Soviet experiment, supporting pretty much everything the nation did with her Brujah Council leading the way)
Key Event #2: Awe & Wonder (she very rarely was drawn to or engaged in combat; she was very much the classic "thinker" Brujah, sketching out numerous treatises in defense of Soviet Communism under pen names)
Key Event #3: War (when the Iron Curtain fell and the Baba Yaga awoke, slaying the communist Kindred, she was one of the lucky very few who escaped before the new curtain slammed down on Russia)
Transition: Defeat (she defected to the Camarilla in Rome for safety for over a decade, but then they exiled her to the US, landing her far from the Baba Yaga's agents in the small city of Centropolis, Missouri)
Significant Others
Name: Tristan Blue, 2008
Nature: Volatile
Tristan
Weakness
Boyazna
Alya exists now in the shadow of defeat, failure, and fear of retribution from ancient psychotic monsters pretending at nationalism. If she could benefit from booze, she'd probably be the classic vodka-inured Russian refugee battling internal nihilism. As it stands, she makes due hidden in her haven and books.
Likelihood of Corruption
Average.
She has a good handle on her Brujah temperament, as most Idealists do. Still, it doesn't take much to push her over the edge now and again.
