"Kotarou Katya! Vzlet!
Background
Katya is an augmented human of Russian and Japanese descent. She is a specialist on loan from the Federal Security Services of the Russian Republic, under provisional contract with the MCTF. In response to the widespread formation of magic research institutes and academies, as well as the militarization in some states of magi, FSB directed the formation of a new office of magical research and development. Its objective was to fuse thaumaturgical ability with special forces military training and tactics. As the FSB could not acquire enough high-potential mages for use in their program, and previously documented magic users were not suited for a soldier's life, the program was merged with a concurrently running cybernetic super-soldier project. The think tank reasoned that if they could not locate qualified magi, they would have to create some of their own. Drawing skilled researchers from the aerospace industry and biotech firms internally and from overseas, the FSB eventually formed some semblance of a working project, incorporating 20 children: wards of the state with severe disabilities or life-threatening conditions. All 20 survived the augmentation process and went on to lead surprisingly normal, healthy lives, but only a fourth of them managed to overcome the torturous conditioning, isolated upbringing and brutal training. Only one, Katya, managed to achieve any level of magical skill. The project was deemed a failure by the FSB, though the cyborgs, healed of their infirmities, earned good press for the Republic. She ran in a few sorties alone and with conventional military forces against extremist elements in former satellite states as well as a scattering of missions against the inhuman threat.
In order to salvage their hard work, their single successful super-soldier Katya was offered as a standard "recruit" to the MCTF in order to garner returns on her grotesquely expensive childhood, to produce positive political capital, and also to test the subject's combat aptitude in a multinational strike force. Katya as usual accepted the assignment without question, though inwardly she was nervous and excited to meet other people her age, let alone magically talented girls.
Personality
As befitting her military childhood, Katya is a no-nonsense girl with little in the way of social skills or friendliness. In the FSB's program, children were not allowed to associate with each other, for fear that the exchange of information would disrupt control over their psychological development and contaminate test results. Her only human contact with anyone, besides soldiers working alongside her and the enemy, was with older, mostly male researchers, who treated her similarly to a daughter in some small respects, but always maintained a stoic distance to keep from negatively affecting her fragile magic aptitude, which could theoretically be destabilized by uncontrolled emotions. Appropriately, Katya is icy cold, but yearns for friendship. She retains some child-like qualities due to stunted social development, such as her strong attachment to her eye-patch wearing rabbit stuffed animal. Some researchers who overstepped their professional boundaries exposed her to Japanese media and alluded to her mixed heritage, which gave Katya an idealized, distorted view of Japan based largely off hero shows and archaic period-drama film. She fancies herself a ninja, and has patterned her Spetsnaz GRU close quarters combat martial arts and cybernetic/magical enhancements to resemble those of a fictionalized kunoichi, complete with kunai/shuriken-shaped energy projectiles. Though her handlers attempted to dissuade her from this impractical fixation, they have had little success
She must take unnerving amounts of dietary supplements and medications to support her body's many enhancements and high level of physical activity, which often leads to her emptying a mountain of pills onto her plate whenever she eats. The one-eyed, morbid-looking stuffed rabbit, Kutuzov-chan, is often tied to her belt and goes wherever she goes. Katya does not respond or acknowledge his existence when others point him out unless she trusts them. She considered using the phrase "-gozaru" whenever she spoke Japanese, but has recently decided against it, becoming more aware of the concept of cliches. Katya tends to keep her scarred eye shut despite being perfectly capable of seeing out of it, though she hasn't opted to mirror Kutuzov with an eye patch of her own so far. Katya is skittish around boys and romantically naive in the extreme.
Appearance
Details: Somewhat similar to pic. Just pretend her clothes got damaged. Hair is only neck length. Will have reference images for how the battle uniform looks later.
Katya's mixed heritage is readily apparent, but she looks too unusual to be either ethnicity. Her skin is quite pale. Experimentation and magical backfire has turned her dark black hair grayish-white, almost always worn in a warrior-like ponytail. Mechanically augmented eyes are colored a brilliant orange-red. Years of intense training has left Katya in the peak of physical condition; slim with a firm, lithe body and little excess fat. Underneath her clothes, some traces of cybernetic augmentation are obvious, such as a barcode tattoo on her right upper-arm, three tiny hexagonal panels located on the back of her neck in a triangular pattern, glowing lines and circuitry when she is using powers, and a few circular electronic sockets on her back. A long scar runs over the left side of her face and left eye (which she often keeps shut even though it was repaired), and continues down the left side of her chest. Katya would be strikingly cute were it not for the scar and her chilly, expressionless demeanor, neither of which would make her many friends. She has casual clothes but rarely wears them and keeps them hidden from her handlers, as they expected her to be in uniform or medical dress at all times.
In battle, she wears a specialized combat BDU, combining a dark gray camo tactical vest and belt with a black and navy bodysuit, along with a dark black visor that covers her eyes like a half-helmet. It has a single red lens that glows red when she wears it. She has modified her combat uniform to be more "ninja-like," adding fabric, baggy pants to the thigh areas, split toed metal and leather combat boots reminiscent of Japanese tabi, and a kimono-like jacket over the combat vest. Most importantly, she wears her a tremendous red scarf that trails behind her wherever she goes and almost drags on the ground even when she stands straight.

Characteristics
Complications
Owned: Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, Cybernetics Research Foundation. (Federal'naya sluzhba bezopasnosti Rossiyskoy Federatsii.)
The FSB provides Katya with necessary medication, maintenance and is her original employer. She regularly reports to them her physical condition, training results, sortie information and other details. Since she is "on loan" to the MCTF, as she often was with the GRU and other branches of the Russian military before them, the FSB exerts control over her. Though she is assigned to be subordinate to MCTF superiors, she ultimately belongs to the FSB research team. They may have ways of compelling her to do their bidding.
Social Ineptitude:
Naive and isolated from human interaction most of her life, Katya is very familiar with saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, and thus opts to be quiet and inoffensive in presence, as much as an unnerving human weapon can be. (You could say all 8 points of her charisma are just from being cute, rather than any personality power…)
Marked:
Literally marked in the sense of her scar, and figuratively marked in the sense of her unique position as the only known successful military cyborg from the FSB, as well as the only one of the project to continue being a super soldier. It separates her from human beings, from her handlers, from the soldiers she fights alongside, from magic users, and from the other cyborgs.
Medicated:
If she ever neglects to take her nanomachine supplements, dietary supplements, supplement supplements and Flintstones Vitamins, Katya will be having a thoroughly unpleasant day.
Drawbacks
Weakness:EMP:
Frequency +2, Intensity +2
Electromagnetic interference already makes Katya feel uncomfortable. Strong, military grade electromagnetic pulse equipment can, as with other military technology, short circuit her and leave her numb, paralyzed or worse, depending on exposure. Although it's a serious disadvantage to all cyborgs, research in the FSB recognized the innate flaw of mechanical implants in soldiers and thus did their best to minimize the chances of EMP outright killing Katya, though the threat remains.
