Immediate Family: Anya Orlov (Mother), Inga Orlov (Grandmother), Viktoria Orlov (younger sister) Pavel (Step Father)
Distant Family: Jupiter (Father)
Parenting: Anya was never really around as a mother. She was often very busy with work. Her grandmother looked after for awhile and for the most part her grandmother was kind and firm with the daughter of Jupiter.
Upbringing: Dominika was raised to always fend for herself and if she wanted something she would have to go get it herself. She used to believe that anything was possible and that nothing could stand in her way. She had a good outlook on life. But as she got more into it,
she started to hate the world. It was dark and it provided nothing and it was really just there to screw you over.
Infancy: From the stage of being born to the stage of being two years old. Dominika was often cared for by her mother. Her mother loved her daughter and often times would dance around the house holding Dominika in her arms. Nika was the light of her life at that moment in time. Anytime she started to cry, her mother would just have to dance around the house a bit and she'd soon fall asleep.
Childhood: Growing up as a kid it was still spending time with her mother until she hit the age of five. Around the age of five was when her mother started to go back to work and had to provide for the family. There were a few times that Dominika ended up doing dance classes with her mother and eventually she learned to skate. These two things later became a big passion in her life and Nika had dreams of being in the Olympics one day. She would spend a lot of time with her grandmother. Often times they would bake stuff together or they would go to the market it depended.
Adolescence: This is where a lot of things took a turn for the worst. In her late childhood was when her step father was introduced into her life. She's hated him from day one and thought her mother could do a lot better. However, when Dominika was about the age of thirteen that was when everything started to change. Her step father had been watching her since her grandmother had passed. He was very passive in his advances, but eventually things went really south and there was sexual abuse there. From that point on she couldn't even look at the man. She had money saved up and decided to apply to an exchange program. At the age of fourteen Dominika ended up in Canada and that was where she stayed until she was fifteen. She just recently made it to Camp Jupiter back in January before her sixteenth birthday.
Adulthood: Dominika hasn't reached this stage in her life yet. My plans for her at this stage are uncertain, but I would like her to try her hand at college or university eventually. Find peace within herself and grow to be happier.
Coming of Age: The daughter of Jupiter grew up around the age of 13. That was when she realized the world wasn't fair and that it wasn't a good place to be in. She put herself forward and she left a bad home.
Evolution: Dominika went from being a carefree and passionate girl who believed in the world and that there really was no limit and you could do anything you wanted. Now she's quite reserved and distant from others not really wanting to be around others.

Other things you'll find are her ballet costumes, practice wear, and figure skating costumes too. These she doesn't really show a lot of people unless she's performing in them.
Equipment: Nika owns a pilum that has a imperial gold tip. She also has a pugio for ceremonial purposes, but it works in a pinch.
Accessories: Dominika has no tattoos, but she has her ears pierced. She also owns one piece of jewelry. That piece of jewelry is a necklace that used to be her grandmothers. The two of them were born on the same day but obvious years apart. The necklace holds a Ruby gem and said ruby gem has a Larkspur engraved on the stone. It is a very pretty piece and Dominika always wears it.

Each bedroom is fairly small. Really only fitting a bed and nightstand in there. There is no carpet in the house. Just old floor board. Dominika was used to hiding things in the floorboards a lot. From the outside the home looks a little worn and could use a little bit of work. The doors will often creak here and there, same with some spots on the floor. They have a little bit of a booth style dining room. The home used to belong to Anya's mother and father, Inga and Dimitri.
Neighborhood: The Orlov family lived on the outskirts of the city. There wasn't really anyone around them. You could see the city not too far off, but there was also a small market place just up the road.

Collections: She never really had time to collect anything. There's nothing that she would really want to collect anyways.
Most valuable possession: The necklace she got from her grandmother. All metal and gems are real and it is worth a lot. Dominika would never sell it though. It is the last thing she has of her grandmother.

Hobbies/Interests: Dance, Ice skating, and read. Dominika has been dancing since before she could really talk. When she was about six years old she got into ice skating and eventually she liked the idea of ice dancing. Her grandmother bought her, her very first pair of skates. Her grandmother was also her biggest supporter in her skating. Reading is her newest interest/hobby. That came about after coing to camp. She's read self help books and fiction books. Anything she s able to get.
Skills/Talents: Dominika doesn’t have a whole lot of talents. Although to reiterate, she is talented at dancing, and has always seemed to have an affinity for it. She knew how to dance before she could even form full sentences, and it wasn’t a huge struggle to pick up. Oddly enough another talent of hers when she was in school was chemistry. She was fairly good at knowing how certain chemicals reacted to others and she picked the science up quite quickly. Faster than most would be able to.
Likes: The cold, ice skating, dancing, ballet, baking, anything blue, and honesty.
Dislikes: Idiotic people, physical contact, orange flavoured chocolate, sugar coated candies, and scented candles.
Sense of Humor: Nika's sense of humour is either witty or sarcastic. Which isn't what you'd expect from her.  She's also a big fan of puns.
Pet Peeves: Idiotic people. Stupidity and ignorance. People who are very controlling.
Superstitions/Beliefs: Dominika is the type to believe something when she sees it. Conspiracy theories do intrigue her, but she doesn't really believe them. She doesn't believe in things she cannot see with her own eyes.
Dreams/Nightmares: Dominika's dreams vary. She doesn't usually remember them, but often times they're weird and she's usually in Russia or Canada. Sometimes her grandmother is still alive in her dreams. Those are ones she is very fond of. Her nightmares are usually related to the traumatic events that have happened in her life.
Quirks: She doesn't like people touching her at all.
Savvy: Dancing is something that Nika is well informed on. She knows different steps to different types of dances, she knows how to count rhythm and beats. It is one of her passions.
Can't understand: Why good people die and bad ones live.
Closet Hobby: Origami - the art of paper folding.
Guilty Pleasure: Eating cookie dough ice cream while watching romantic comedies. She usually likes to do this around 2 in the morning so nobody finds out.

Strengths: Despite often being reserved and aloof to others, Dominika is a very good listener. It might come with her being quiet. She likes to observe and hear things people have to say. She's extremely loyal to people she decides to trust. Which there are very few in that category, but once you're worth her trust, she'll have your back until the very end. Even if you decided to close off ties with her.
Flaws:  Visually, Nika’s nose is way too narrow for her face and sets the balance off a bit. She is too independent and stubborn that she will not take anyone's help no matter how many times you offer it to her. Nika finds it incredibly difficult to trust others and her guard is up constantly.
Perception: Bleak, a series of challenges and obstacles that you have to get through.
Conflicts: Dominika often wants that home feeling and sense of family and welcoming. However, her actions often make it obvious to others around her that she doesn't want that. She pushes people away because she's afraid of them and their capabilities and often time as a result there's internal conflict within herself.
Instincts: Her instincts often tell her to remove herself from a crowd and just watch. Her instincts usually tell her where to go and what feels right and what feels wrong.
Lures: Dominika seems to be drawn to darkness in her own eyes. She seems to follow it around and it consumes her life. However, Dominika is actually drawn towards people despite trying to remove herself from that.
Soft Spot: Nika's soft spot is usually naive people, young children, and honesty. If people are honest with her she's usually got a huge soft spot to that.
Cruel Streak: Her family being threatened. Especially her little sister.

Abilities: Electric pulse: She can create little mini pulses of electricity that can either be used to mark a path or it will be used to help light up her way.
Rumbling Thunder: Much like her father when she is angry thunder will rumble. For Nika it will only do that when clouds are already out.
Shock wave: She can make mini shock waves for pranks, such as going to shake someone’s hand and shocking them at the same time. She can make small little shock waves, and sometimes then can travel a bit. You don’t want to stand too close when they happen.
Powers: Aerokinesis;
Levitation: Nika is able to use the gusts of wind to lift her body up and she is able to fly around. She can go up to about one thousand five hundred feet. If she does it to the extent she will only get a little fatigued since she’s been practicing for awhile now. It will last about 8 posts in total per thread.
Swift As A Coursing River: During battle Nika is an agility based fighter. She is quick and it is what gives her an edge as she doesn’t have very brutal offensive attacks. It allows a wind gust to flow a small few centimeters below her feet or near her hands and arms for quick movements in battle that are difficult to avoid. This can last for about 6 posts and has a cool-down of 5 posts.
Purification: She is able to purify the air from hazardous molecules by removing them. Making the air breathable instead of polluted with toxins. It takes a lot of concentration and often times she comes out with massive headaches. Can last for 3 posts and has a cool-down of 5 posts.
Deoxygenation: To tie in with being able to purify the air and removing hazardous molecules, she can also remove oxygen molecules in a small 4 foot radius. It’s not a big radius, but it’s a strong power to possess. She has never been able to kill with the power as it takes lots of concentration to begin with. It lasts for about thirty seconds, probably enough to stun whatever/whoever she’s fighting and make them gasp for air. Although this is a power only ever used in desperate need. It can only be used once in a topic and often leaves her with migraines that no medicine can touch. She goes into a fragile state with this one.
Nitrogen Explosives: “Generate explosive and propulsive energy via nitrogen.” - (Superpower wiki’s words) She can create about seven of these within 2 posts, but will need a cool-down of 4 posts. She can only create twenty-one of those per topic. Even going to her max wears her out and she begins to feel nauseated and could potentially collapse from exhaustion.
Atmokinesis:
Tornado: She can summon an EF-2 tornado that will go up to the speed of 200 km/h. Can use for 3 posts and has a cool-down of 10 posts.
Thermal Manipulation: Dominika can tamper with the temperature so long as it’s always within five degrees of what it already is, in either direction.
Electrokinesis:
Thunder Calling: She is able to summon a bolt of lightning per a thread and it is able to hit three monsters.
Origin: Passed down from her father Jupiter.
Source: Most of her power comes from her own energy source and strength. She uses the resources around her if they are available. Which is usually the case since most of her powers have to do with the air.
Ability: She's grown better since first starting out. She has fairly good control over her powers, but there is still some learning curves that she hopes to train on and gain even more control with. Over time she'll get very good.
Weaknesses: Dominika has a few weaknesses. A big one for her, is her hand to hand combat. She doesn’t throw very many good punches, and just is quite fragile in hand to hand. Lastly a weakness for Dominika would be the people who she holds close to her dying or being targeted.
Immunities: Lighting strikes. They have no affect on her.
Restrictions:Listed above.

Bio: Back before Nika was even thought of her mother Anya was a beautiful Russian woman who was passionate about dancing and loved the art of it. It had always been her dream to compete in dancing competitions and make it big with her dancing. Anya was cut short by her father who told her she couldn’t dance and wasn’t allowed to dance. That was when Anya was sent away to boarding school for academics and was trained to want to be in a better profession. It was then that Anya didn’t really have a close relationship with her father. She had a strong hatred towards him and wanted nothing to do with the man. Her mother on the other hand had tried to argue with her husband about sending their daughter off to an academics school, but it was no use. Her mother Inga had encouraged her daughter every visit to keep practicing her dancing and that she was still pulling for her.

Due to the outcome of this, the family was a bit split. Anya’s older brother was moved out by this point and had his own problems going on. He vanished from the family for quite some time. It was her other older brother Nikolai that was almost a carbon copy of her father and despised what Anya was doing to the family. Elena and Alexi were too young at the time to have an official say in the matter, not one their father or mother would listen to.

Inga and her husband Dimitri spent hours upon hours arguing about Anya’s dream. Dimitri didn’t think it was practical and was a strict man. He wanted to see his daughter to become more, and not follow in the footsteps of her oldest brother Grigori.

Unfortunately the family only drifted further apart when Anya met Pavel when she was the age of sixteen. They were infatuated with each other and she wanted to spend everyday with him that she possibly could. They hit it off, but Dimitri never approved of the man. He thought his daughter could do so much better, knowing of Pavel’s reputation. Either way, Anya ended up pregnant and had a baby boy. She named him Roman, and spent the first year with him, before her father came in and paid Pavel to leave with the child and let Anya have her life.

Four years later, Dimitri passed. The family remained divided, and Anya was done with the school, and she refused to do any career she was trained to do. She went back into practicing dance and doing local competitions, until she became bigger and bigger and finally got to go to America for a competition. She placed in fifth in that and went home to train some more. Another four years passed and she found her way to America again for a competition, where she met a striking young man. They hit it off, and eventually, she ended up pregnant with the eye candy’s child.

After becoming runner up in the competition, Anya decided to stay in America for awhile and she got to travel around a bit and meet new people. She stayed in contact with her lovely attractive man for awhile but she never told him she was pregnant. Anya didn’t really show until she was about five months pregnant. Once she did start to show he backed away and slowly faded from her life. Anya had grown a bit upset but she was tough and didn’t need to depend on him.

After giving birth to Dominika in the hospital in America it was about the same time that her visa ran out and so she had to go back home to Russia. In Russia Dominika got to meet her grandmother who had often helped out with the raising of her. Every week-day from seven in the morning to seven at night Dominika was home with her grandmother and they would do a lot of fun things such as bake, read stories, paint, dance, and go play in the snow.

Things were great for Nika until she was about the age of seven and understood more about having parents and realized she didn’t have a father. It hurt her not to have one and she could never understand why he wasn’t around. She often jumped to conclusions often asking if it had been about her and if it had, why didn’t he want her?

At the age of eight things took an even darker turn. Her mother got a new boyfriend. This lasted for about two years before they hastily got married when she was the age of ten. Nika was happy to have a father but at the same time it wasn’t the father that she needed nor wanted. However Nika wasn’t aware of their past, and this man was Pavel from her past.

Developing at an early age, her new father was quite attracted to it. He was now taking place of Nika’s grandmother and watching her while her mother was at work. Eventually some things led to another and her new dad grew rather fond of her and he basically took her innocence away from her and that left her with even more trust issues than before and unable to feel safe in her home. Nika was terrified of men from that point on or really anyone getting physically close to her.

At the age of fourteen Nika, signed up for a program she paid in full for an exchanging of two people. One from Russia and one from Canada. Nika ended up going to Canada for the exchange program for half a year, and during the half of year, Nika was founded by Lupa and the wolf pack and from there they had trained her. She made it to camp Jupiter just in time for her fifteenth  birthday.
Personality:  Dominika is a hard person to follow. She has an outer defense that is there to serve as her protector from those who may want to do harm to her. She doesn’t trust very easily, but she is slowly starting to open up again and be a lot like her old self.

On the exterior Dominika is aloof and cold. She doesn’t give very good first impressions and she’s generally very distant. Most times you’ll get one word responses from her if any response in general. She can be quite blunt in her every day persona to passers by. If she thinks you’re being an idiot she’s going to tell you straight out to your face that you’re being dumb and you don’t know what you’re doing. With this the daughter of Jupiter seems to get stuck in her way, that if she’s right, she’s right. Generally she hates to be disproven that she’s wrong and will still fight you and be stubborn insisting that she is indeed right, even if she knows she’s lost.

Nika is a bit head-strong and easy to tick off. She has no patience for those who are a complete waste of space and time. Her willingness to never give up is also a big thing for her. Her determination is strong and if she believes in a cause so deeply she will fight for it until she’s put in her grave. It is very difficult to persuade her otherwise.

However the cold and distant demigod, does have a soft spot. It is easy to tap into once she has been able to let her guard down around you and begin to trust you a bit more. She will help anyone in need. She now has gained the Roman mentality of fighting together and no one gets left behind. If someone needs help she is there, even if she isn’t that fond of you. Someone dying on her account of putting feelings in the way is something she couldn’t forgive herself for.

Her true personality is what lies underneath the exterior. Dominika has so much passion and love to give to people she deems deserves it. She is caring and helpful to them, and often times you may think she’s insulting you, but that is her form of a compliment. Nika isn’t the best at complimenting people very well or even accepting compliments for the most part. There is a young girl still inside that gets flustered when a boy compliments her or she gets nervous around them here and there. It’s quite the sight to see someone so aloof be so cutesy and nervous with another person.
