OC Reviews (Slow updates)

Irina Teblanski (A+)

Hey, I wanted to get another OC review (two actually, but one at a time :) ) for two mainer characters for the next book in my series. So they're from the same universe as Paddy.Admin Request: Peggy(1/3)Name: Irina Teblanski That's such a pretty nameAge: 23 That's different. I like itFandom: Original CoolGender: FemaleBackstory:- 1990: Irina was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Russia's not usually done. good job Her early childhood isn't very remarkable, she's part of the middle class and lived happily with her parents. Her dream was to become a ballerina. SameWhen she transitioned into teenhood however, problems started. She begins to feel a bit isolated whereever she was, whether it be family, school or friends. Those friends also toldbher that she will have a really hard time becoming a ballerina with her bodytype and should rather focus on other things. When Irina realized she doesn't like boys but girls, So, a lesbian that's so cool. she became even more insecure about herself and feelt even more out of place in her social circles. It reached its peak when she actually made out with a girl but soon felt uncomfortable about all the touching aside from the kisses. Now she questioned if she is even a real lesbian when she wants to be with a girl but not sleep with one. - 2009: With 19, Irina moved to a cousin to Moscow to escape the enviroment that made her feel so odd. It worked fine in the start but after a month Irina decided to stay longer. Her cousin was not quite excited about it but let her do as she please as long as Irina now paid rent. Irina took many, not well paid jobs and struggled with her life, trying to always tell herself to be happy that she now was indepent. One day, she came across a shabby gym and even if Irina had buried her secret dream of being a Ballerina, she thought sports would be fun. So she signed in for some courses in the worn down and thus cheap gym. She took self-defense courses because the choreographys of martial arts appealed to her like the one of ballet. That's cool

(2/3) 

 Her instructor, who was also one of the gym owners, was quite fond of her and encouraged her in her efforts. All the time while Irina attended the courses, she had also noticed weird things about the gym: sometimes the smell of drugs hung in the air, sometimes people came without any equipment or even wearing suits, just disappearing with one owner in a backroom. 

 - 2010: One day her instructor called her in the backroom herself, introducing her to Ivan Braginsky. Ivan had been aufmerksam geworden auf sie  What? through her instructor and offered her a few jobs that would pay well. Irina felt uneasy but because she needed money anyways and her instructor was so enthusiastic about it, she agreed. Thus she came into contact with the russian mafia Oh and kept working for Ivan, who also cared for her like a friend, until she wound up his bodyguard and right hand. 

 Appearance: Irina is sturdy woman of 1,66 meters. She's chubby, which makes some people think she's unhealthy, but there are strong muscles in those arms and legs. Her eyes are brown and her hair is natural red and curly. (Natural red meaning a brown-red tone, nothing illogically bright.) She wears it cut short so that it doesn't reach past her ears. She wears glasses.

I would so read about her

 Personality: Irina is a friendly, caring young woman who always tries to help people. She however also often questioned herself due to her emotionally troubled youth and was afraid of having done something wrong. Nowadays, with the help of her new friends, she has gained more self esteem and is more comfortable in making decisions and interacting with other people, standing up for herself. She's also a fan of kitsch and cute things in general and of 90s fashion. 

 Strengths: She's skilled at close combat, especially at boxing and judo. She's fairly good at reading the mood, even if it's mostly a vague gut feeling that tells her what's up. She's always cheery and helpful, friendly even to people who are grumps.

Sound like an actual person. Good job

(3/3)

Weaknesses: She sometimes still tries to put on a facade and does unnecessary things to pleases people she likes. While she has developed a healthy mistrust and gut feeling for people's personality, she sometimes can still be too trusting and friendly with the wrong people or in the wrong situation.

Again, she sounds like a rea person

Love Interest: Viktoriya Orlov. Vicki also works for Ivan and reached the right hand position before Irina. So at first her boss, then her colleague, a friendship develops. Especially when Irina finds out that Vicki is also a lesbian. Vicki helps Irina to find a name for her sexuality (asexual) while also reassuring her that she's still a 'real lesbian' for romantically liking girls. Over time, Irina develops romantic feelings for Vicki, only to discover Vicki already has a big fat crush on her. They've been a couple for three years when my story starts.

That sounds so realistic I'm dying
