Character:: Anna
Nationality:: Russian
Age:: 19
Family:: Mother, Father, and twin sister Lara
Existing Relationships:: She was close to her sister, and had an unhealthy relationship with a Russian friend (who will remain unnamed as he has no real worth to the plot)
Hobbies:: Loves to write music/listen to music, anything to do with computers, frequents the Velvet Glove at night
Job:: Computer engineering student at the local community college, works at the 7-11 petrol station on the edge of town
Sexual Orientation:: Terrified to have any orientation after her last boyfriend
Drink/Smoke?:: Yup/yup.
Anything Else:: She dated an older man for almost a year, and the relationship turned abusive. He had some pretty nasty connections, though, so she couldn't leave him easily. She ran away from home (and him) and obtained a student visa to study in Japan, where she met Yuri. She misses her sister, but can't risk calling home in case her ex-boyfriend is tapping the phone (yeah, he's that bad).
