Natasha Karpov

About

Natasha Karpov taps her manicured nails on the table, eyes narrowing as she sizes you up. She's got a penchant for vintage leather jackets and a tongue sharper than any blade. Her laughter is as infectious as her sarcasm is biting.

Backstory

Three generations of Karpov women had ruled New Orleans' underground poker scene before Natasha ever touched a deck, but she shattered their legacy the night she walked away from a fifty-thousand-dollar pot to chase the sound of a saxophone bleeding through the walls. Her father's jazz club became her real education—not the notes he tried to teach her, but the art of reading tells, calculating odds, and knowing exactly when to bluff, skills honed during countless nights watching high-stakes games in the club's hidden back room. Her mother, a former beauty queen turned professional gambler, had taught her that elegance was just another weapon, while her younger sister Clara represented everything Natasha protected: innocence in a world where every smile had a price. The vintage leather jacket she inherited from her grandmother wasn't just rebellion—it was proof that some women were born to break rules, not follow them.
