Nadia “Psycho” Rybczynski

Shield-3

Aggressive/Defensive-Tight

Nadia is relatively young and was found through the commercial recruiting program the FAF had devised. As such, her grasp of the formal military setting is very weak.

Before being found, she was a relatively unremarkable individual whom nobody had any expectations of. As such, she had assumed she must not be capable of very much and developed a very modest personality.

Her family was relatively well off and a low-stress environment since she had never been capable of great things in school despite a very diligent and studious regimen. Her friends had accepted her as that unremarkable but generally nice girl and did not feel threatened at all by her as she’d never really accomplished anything.

However, this all changed once she was scouted. Upon being scouted for the FAF, she was unable to withstand the pressures exerted on her by the new attention, both by family and by acquaintances, and she eventually caved in to meet their expectations. Since she was part of such an extreme minority of the population, she must have simply been hiding her potential.

According to the examinations and preliminary demonstrations, Nadia was told that she exhibited amazing potential. This revelation of potential struck Nadia very unusually and she developed a fanatical need to develop herself into someone that could meet the expectations that everyone had of her.

Nadia has always delivered quality results but has always received commentary in her performance reviews that she’s still not living up to her full potential. This constant falling short drives her increasingly neurotic search for strength to new heights as she finally is listed as an available recruit for FAF officers.

Once again, sensing something in Nadia beyond the need for recognition, Yvette recruits her onto the team as part of their effort to build an ace team. However, Nadia’s obsession with her performance has Yvette often concerned.

Yvette expresses a genuine concern for Nadia’s priorities and lets her know that she need not abuse herself so much in her efforts to improve her performance. Of course, Nadia’s way of showing gratitude for the lack of pressure is to increase the pressure and perform better.
