Physical Description: Her light brown skin has warm bronze undertones that highlight her features, particularly when she deigns to smile. On the rare occasions that Katerina genuinely laughs, her whole face lights up, however it is far more common to see her business smile or hear her polite giggle.

For business, she dresses however she needs to attract attention, which typically means that less is quite a bit more. Outside of work, Katerina often wears whatever is comfortable, although everything is still fashionable and well put together. Katerina refuses to leave the house looking anything less than what she deems to be acceptable, and she tends to be a perfectionist.

Personality:

Katerina is cold and unforgiving. The only ones who gain any of her rare affection are the women she works with and her only daughter. Even when not at work, she keeps everyone at a professional distance. She doesn’t truly consider herself to have friends so much as acquaintances that she’s less distant towards.

Anyone who crosses her, is immediately written off without a second’s hesitation, as she has low tolerance for fools. If truly angered, Katerina will ensure that proper retribution is given, whether her involvement is direct or not depends on circumstance. She knows exactly what she wants and will not hesitate to do whatever she deems necessary to get it.

She’s a very social woman, and enjoys getting to know people, as she sees them as a sort of riddle to figure out. Despite her cool demeanor, Katerina also has a sense of humor… though some might consider it to be a cruelty all its own. She doesn’t completely lack empathy, but she reserves it for those few who she deems to be worth caring for.

Secret(s): Kat has many, but her deepest secret is that she sometimes gives a damn.

Parents:

Amalia Taylor (nee Álvarez)

Harrison Talylor

Siblings: Katerina doesn’t know if they’ve had children since she left.

Worthy Mentions:

Her Daughter: Selina

Childhood:

Katerina grew up in a lower-middle class home in Mexico. Her mother, Amalia, was a beautiful woman and a strict Catholic. She worked hard as a waitress to make sure that Kat was well fed and brought up properly. Harrison, a Catholic missionary from England, taught Kat what he knew of his religion, and he had a tendency to get impatient with young Kat when she didn’t pick up his lessons as quickly as he thought she should.

In the home, expectations were high but Amalia was loving and genuinely cared for and looked out for Kat. Katerina worked hard to fill her parents expectations, and she got top grades at school. She’d always been exceptionally smart, and with her father’s demanding the best from her, she studied hard. When Katerina turned eleven, she noticed her father leaving for extended periods of time and that his clothes occasionally smelled like another man’s cologne.

Kat was highly confused, but figured it was one of his parishioners who needed help. Her father had been so adamant about truth and being faithful that the other explanation didn’t make much sense. Soon afterwards, her parents had their first major fight. They’d disagreed many times before, but they’d never yelled, nor had their words been quite so vicious. Kat soon figured out exactly what was going on, even without her mother’s cursing her father as a cheat to help her get there.

Adolescence: Katerina’s worldview was shaken , as the one she’d been told she should always look up to for moral guidance ended up screwing her mother over and leaving the two women to fend for themselves. Amalia had to work two jobs, and even three when she could manage it, just for rent and basic necessities. Katerina also went to work, though she was young, so what she could find was minimal at best.

Her mother’s expectations became almost suffocating, as Amalia saw Katerina as her only family left. Amalia pressured Katerina to be the best of the best, for Kat’s own sake, so that hopefully Katerina could find a well-paying job and not have to do tedious, backbreaking labor for minimum wage. Kat didn’t react well to being so stifled however. She was a young girl questioning everything, particularly her sexuality. She knew her mother wouldn’t approve, especially with how their father had left them.

Her first experience with another girl happened when she was fourteen, and Katerina didn’t regret it in the slightest. The other girl was a year older and taught Kat many things, including how to be safe with her partners. Katerina felt fear for what should happen if her mother found out, but she didn’t worry too much. After all, what the woman didn’t know, wouldn’t hurt her. Kat carried on in this general mindframe until she was sixteen. By that time, she was quite experienced, as she’d had quite a few lovers of various genders and orientations and her reputation had spread around her school… and farther than she’d ever thought it would.

Her freedom with her partners was the relief she needed from the stress at home. Kat also worked when she could and helped out, but she could tell single motherhood was taking a toll on Amalia. Their relationship was strained at best and with Kat gone almost all of the time, Amalia started getting suspicious. One of Kat’s flings got jealous when she moved on to a woman and told Amalia exactly where she could find Kat. When Amalia walked in on Kat and her lover in the middle of… business, Amalia was so angry she dragged Kat back to their house, not even letting the girl dress.

The betrayal and anger Amalia felt cut deep, as her daughter had just spat in the face of everything Amalia had worked so hard to teach her… at least from her point of view. She yelled horrible things that she’d later regret into Kat’s face, and both were crying in a mix of frustration, rage, and pain by the time it was over. Amalia threatened to kick Kat out of the house if she ever caught Kat doing such a thing again and Kat accepted her pronouncement with a silent nod.

Kat played her hand carefully, knowing she didn’t truly have anyone she could trust at the school to take her in should her mother’s threat prove to be serious. She acted the part of the of the penitent young woman who’d seen the wrongs of her ways and she would until she could graduate high school and find a job to pay for a living somewhere far from her mother’s place. Or at least, that had been the plan.

Katerina soon met up with another young woman who showed her a very quick way to earn the money she sorely needed to get away. She worked right after school, and had a few people who were willing to offer vouch that she’d been studying with them should her mom ask questions… which Amalia often did. Kat was found out by her mother when she was seventeen, and true to Amalia’s word, Kat was kicked out of the house. Although she had saved up a good bit of money by that point, she wasn’t earning enough to pay rent.

Katerina spent the nights at her client’s places or in the hotels they paid for more often than not, dropping out of school so she could work full time. She carried herself in such a manner that most didn’t ask questions, besides, they wanted to believe she was eighteen as much as she wanted them to. Eventually she found a cheap apartment that she could afford which she was more than grateful for, despite the cockroaches that roamed the place. Boric acid helped though.

Adulthood:

One night, soon after Katerina had turned 18, she met an exceptionally handsome gentleman that was intelligent, witty and who captured her attention in a way that none before had. They hit it off extremely well and Kat even tricked him out of some of his money at a hand of cards. Instead of getting angry he just laughed and seemed to appreciate her skilled fingers… Kat would have probably taken him for free, but she charged him the same rate she gave everyone else and had the best night of her life while being paid. He tipped her so well she was taken aback, but she didn’t refuse his money either…

Unfortunately, what neither realized was that the condom had broken and while Kat was on birthcontrol, this just happened to be one of those rare instances when nothing went right. Kat found out she was pregnant about a two months later and panicked. She had no money or time to raise a child, besides she was just 18 what the hell did she know about parenting? Kat immediately looked into abortion, as she needed to keep working and she didn’t have an employer to give her maternity leave.

The man she’d almost been infatuated with for a night came back and somehow convinced her to have the kid… to this day she’s not quite sure how he did it. Then he told her about a place called Corinth, where she would find better employment and a school that sounded far too uppity for her to be able to afford… until he told her it’d be free for her kid. Kat was incredibly suspicious and putting herself through hell for the next eighteen years didn’t sound appealing in the slightest. The only trouble was… some part of her also genuinely wanted the child. Kat had no family left, and she wasn’t close to anyone as she spent most of her time with her clients or recovering from them.

Katerina finally made the decision to try for the states, and the man helped her get a green card and everything she needed to move, even helping to pay for the expenses. Kat didn’t question it, but she made it very clear once she got to Corinth that she wanted nothing to do with him. She’d used him for what she needed, and now she would physically push him out of her life if she had to. Luckily he didn’t need pushing and left without any further convincing.

Katerina fell in love with her little girl when the child was born. She found a job at a brothel that paid well enough so that she could afford a small apartment for the both of them. She took care of and protected Selina, providing her child with everything Katerina had felt Amalia denied her. Unfortunately, due to her work hours, she didn’t get to spend near as much time with Selina as she’d have liked, but life wasn’t going to stop for Kat’s sake alone.

When her daughter was attacked by a monster and a member of the police came by to let Kat know about gods and titans and a whole manner of things that she’d thought were long gone, she was surprised but she was also starting to connect the dots on why that stranger had been so interested in getting her here. Had he known from the night they’d been together? Or had he merely planned accordingly once he’d found out? She wasn’t entirely sure, but either way he was a manipulative bastard. Prometheus, an ancient titan. Kat almost felt flattered she’d had such a being pay to be in her bed.

Kat adapted well enough, as free schooling couldn’t hurt. She’s still mostly unaware of the volatile relationship between half-titans and half-gods, as Selina only tells her, or sometimes makes up, the good about Olympus Falls. But Kat is quick to pick up on nuance and she knows her daughter well. Something is off, and she plans to find out exactly what’s going on, whether Selina will be the one to tell her or not.

Sample: Selina grinned as she made her way around her new favorite place. It was a little hole in the wall, but inside... anything could happen. Perfect evidence was the two men fucking against a wall to her right and a threesome up ahead to her left. Selina smirked as a woman grabbed her ass and pulled her in for a long make-out session and heavy petting. They'd already had each other once that night and Selina found herself heavily tempted to take the woman again.

A sight behind them caught Selina's attention however and she nudged the woman to glance in that direction. "Is he really taking that up his...? Wow, he has talent," she observed in minor admiration.

The woman next to her laughed and kissed Selina once more, "He's been here a few times before and I don't think that's even the largest he's had..." she added as she thought about it.

Selina just smirked and was about to say something else as her phone rang, "Damn, sorry, I gotta take this," she offered apologetically. Selina then left the club and sighed as she felt the cool night air chill her heated skin. The call was from a potential client for once she got her business up and running and she had no desire to screw this up.

As she was talking she walked down the street, passing a few strip clubs on the way. There were two very religious and pompous looking people outside one of the LGBT clubs and she figured they had to be some poor kids parents. The cross around the wife's neck was a bit too large and too gold to truly be about humble homage anyway. Dear lord, didn't these people ever learn? They annoyed her in a way few could.

Selina almost pitied the poor soul who would have to deal with them later. Luckily her mother had been... well, the exact opposite really. Selina sighed, but smiled as she saw a... "friend" she recognized outside the door. She waved and the two greeted each other with... a not quite so innocent display. The religious couple looked appalled... so Selina deepened the kiss and slid her hand up the woman's thigh, enjoying this even more than usual.

She definitely heard a few slurs hurled her way, but she didn't care in the slightest.
