Original Character

Occupation: Student and Amateur Sleuth
Apartment or House: Single Dorm-Room at UNLV

A day spent without the sight or sound of beauty, the contemplation of mystery, or the search of truth or perfection is a poverty-stricken day; and a succession of such days is fatal to human life.

Lewis Mumford

Personality: Bubbly and bookish, Anastasia is always up for a good mystery, something that came from the Nancy Drew books she read as a little girl. She despises bullies and regularly stands up to them. She is very determined by nature - when she sets her mind to something she will stop at nothing to achieve it. She is overly curious though, which gets her into all sorts of trouble when she is investigating a case.

History: The daughter of immigrants, Anna and her family moved from Saratov, Russia when the girl was 10. She is naturally fluent in Russian as well as English; despite the fact she and her parents have been in Las Vegas for so long, she still has a Russian accent. It was back in Russia that the girl began gymnastics and began excelling at it. When the family moved to Las Vegas, her parents saved up any money they could so Anna could continue with her passion.

Originally, Anna found it hard to fit in at her Las Vegas school. She got bullied at school for her accent and so found refuge in the school library, becoming a total bookworm. It was here that she fell in love with the Nancy Drew books and was bitten by the mystery-bug. In high school, Anna blossomed, soon becoming one of the popular girls in the school. She would regularly stand up for kids that were bullied, even if the one's doing the bullying was her clique. This won her the admiration and respect from the majority of the school.

After high school, Annie entered UNLV on a gymnastics scholarship, where she is currently finishing her undergraduate studies in Russian in order to learn more about were her family came from. She is also studying forensic psychology and criminalistics. As a sleuth, she manages to get herself into some kind of trouble that more often then not ends with family friend Patrick Sullivan getting her out of it.

Gymnastics taught me everything - life lessons, responsibility and discipline and respect.
