.history.

She was everything her parents ever wanted in a daughter-beautiful, brilliant, talented beyond even their expectations, intelligent, a prodigy-but at the same time, she was everything they never wanted.

Alexander Solovyova, a teacher of mathematics at a university in St. Petersburg married Liliya, a talented ballerina in what was then known as the Kirov Ballet. What no one knew, because the couple took great pains to keep their training and powers secret, were that both of them were Hermetic mages, trained by the hidden remnants of the Order in the Soviet Union. Both of them hoped that their daughter, when she was born, would be special. Someone great, someone worthy of their legacy.

Sascha, as they called their little girl, was special. But not in the way that they had hoped. Soon after Sascha's birth, her parents took her to Marina Iliyina, one of the few remaining Hermetic seers that remained in the USSR, to ask her to read what lay in their child's future. The moment Marina cast the spell to part time's veil, she went into a fit of convulsions, spoke in riddles of the world shattering, of seven angels with white wings who would bring the end...

And that Sascha Solovyova, their beautiful, precious Sascha, who they had had so many hopes and dreams for, was one of those seven.

They refused to believe it, even though Marina was a master mage, her visions had never been wrong, they had to be wrong in this case...until they heard of Marina's suicide, a week later.

After that, forced to believe, they turned away from their daughter, they could not bring themselves to love her. Sascha was always provided for, she was trained in the Hermetic magics of her parents-Angel or not, if she showed the talent, it would have been wrong for her not to receive training, it was unthinkable, especially considering that both her parents were of the Order-but not even her talent, her ease in learning, her love of learning, was enough to make her parents proud. Even being accepted to the prestigious Vaganova Academy to study ballet, even proving her great talent in dance, even earning a coveted place with the Mariinsky Ballet, the company that her mother had danced with, was not enough to bring a word of praise, a smile, the love she craved.

And finally, Sascha realized that no matter what she did, her parents would never love her. Never accept her. Because of her destiny, that they had told her about when she was a child.

And when she was nineteen, not long after she joined the Mariinsky Ballet, she chose to take the final step in reinventing herself and distancing herself from her parents: she chose a new name for herself, instead of "Sascha", with the ironic meaning "protector of man", which did not and never would apply to her, one of those who would destroy humanity.

Now calling herself Myca, she waits and plans quietly, in preparation for the End: she has already made her decision, to embrace her destiny. She is determined to destroy everything her parents have worked so hard to build. Everything.

.personality.

Serious, calm, and serene, Myca seems kind and gentle, as well as harmless. However, beneath her fragile facade, lies dangerous intelligence, cunning, and guile: she is a master manipulator, with a will stronger then steel, a will that will not be denied, and a willingness to sacrifice anything and everyone-even herself-to fulfill her goals. She will not back down, and she will not change her mind: her devotion to her cause is absolute. Cold as the heart of Siberia's winter, she loves only three things-ballet, learning, and the study of her magic-and cares very little for people, though she does an excellent job of
concealing her dislike of people.

Somewhere beneath the ice is the lonely, lost little girl who wanted nothing but the love and praise of her parents: but she is almost gone now, almost forgotten. For gentle little Sascha is no more, and there is only Myca, cold brilliant Hermetic mage and ballerina, Angel who has embraced her destiny and finds a strange satisfaction in the fact that she will destroy everything her parents have tried to build.

.appearance.

Slender, slight even, and petite, delicate-appearing, she is strikingly, perfectly, beautiful, in an ethereal, otherworldly fashion, with long black hair and deep violet eyes, pale as winter snow. She has the perfect posture, poise, and grace worthy of the extraordinarily talented ballerina that she is, with a perfectly elegant carriage, carrying herself like a perfect lady. She dresses in dark colors, usually black or violet, that only emphasize her pale coloring, startling eyes, and dark hair. She is always serious, and very rarely smiles: she has never been seen to laugh.

.verse.

An opal for a wound you carry, fairy lights of pleading someone look at me.
'Cause you're dancing dirt into the snow
while others look at you on show.
You're dancing dirt into the snow
while all around you people grow
And watch you bleed.
And watch you bleed.
