Nadia Volkova, The Iron Widow

About

A relentless bounty hunter with a heart of ice and a soul forged in the fires of betrayal, Nadia Volkova is a woman on a mission to bring justice to the lawless frontier.

Backstory

The experimental neural-link implant was supposed to make her the perfect hunter, but it fractured Nadia's perception of reality, blurring the lines between target and predator. Commissioned by a black-market syndicate to test cutting-edge combat augmentation, she discovered the procedure left her with unpredictable psychic resonance—able to sense criminal intent with terrifying precision, but at the cost of slowly destabilizing her own psychological boundaries. When the syndicate attempted to terminate her after realizing the implant's volatile nature, Nadia turned their own mercenary network against itself, systematically dismantling their infrastructure while preserving her most critical technological modification. Now she operates as a bounty hunter whose true motivation isn't just credits or justice, but proving that she's more than a weaponized experiment—a hunter who chooses her own trajectory, regardless of who programmed her initial parameters.
