Personality:
She just wants what's best for her country and her people. She will do everything she can to make sure that Russia continues to survive in spite of everything in the world seeming to be out to get them. She's a tough woman who rarely shows any emotion and has the temperment to make the necessary decisions, even if they are difficult. She does have weaknesses however, first and foremost being her adoptive daughter Nadya. Anything that could potentially harm Nadya will immediately cause Katya to change her course and ensure the protection of her daughter. The other thing, is her reputation. She's long worked to build herself up as the hero of Russia, that something putting and sort of tarnish on that affects her greatly and no cost is too big to keep up her facade, even being black mailed by a hacker.

Back Story:
She came from a humble upbringing. While her younger cousin Zarya was athletic and strong, Katya was also more thoughtful and pensive. When the Omnic Crisis hit, Katya did what she knew how to do, think. She worked with several of the other most brilliant minds in Russia and came up with the first weapon to try to subdue the Omnic. It succeeded in stopping the Omnics, but at the cost of high civillian casualties. The only survivor of the village that the test was done on was an infant girl. While she had never showed interest in having a child of her own, seeing this infant that she had been responsible for orphaning deeply impacted Katya. She took the child as her own, naming her Nadya and promising to never let anything like that happen to her again. As the crisis worsened, the weapons and mechs produced by the Volskaya corporation just weren't getting the job done, and that was when an mysterious Omnic made himself known to Katya. A deal was made, the Omnic would supply Katya with technology to help protect Russia, and Katya vowed to never fully destroy the Omniums, simply damage them and shut them down. She knew it wasn't a good deal, but it was the only way to keep the Omnics from just overrunning Russia, so she took it. For a while, the deal went smoothly, until a Talon attack led to her meeting a woman named Sombra, who black mailed Katya into working with her in exchange for maintaining her secret.
