Info pooooooooooooost! (The first)
Aug. 29th, 2006 09:34 pmRight. So. Nadia.
Nadia comes from the show Alias (if you haven't figured that out, yet). Alias was eventually dubbed "spy-fi" by . . . oh, someone. In that, despite it having a modern day CIA premise, it had a lot of wacky crazy cracked out stuff going on that didn't fit.
Namely, Milo Rambaldi.
How does this affect Nadia at Fandom? Well. See, Rambaldi had all these prophesies, especially involving someone called "the Chosen One". Which isn't Nadia. But the Chosen One was connected to someone known as "the Passenger", who is Nadia. The Passenger is at times described as being the living link to Rambaldi and his works, and with the aid of something dubiously dubbed "Rambaldi elixir", she will point the way to the key to his greatest creation, the Sphere of Life.
While exposed to this elixir in canon, Nadia had hallucinations and dreams about events that would later come to pass in the show. Meaning she has some limited precognitive abilities.
I've totally extrapolated on that in this game. Last spring, Nadia's father, Arvin Sloane, came to town. He had a variation on the Rambaldi elixir that he hoped would lead him to the cure for the condition that Nadia is in at the end of season 4. Somehow or other, Sloane found out that another, younger Nadia was in Fandom and came to use the elixir on her. He did. We presume it worked. But thanks to Fandom magic, prolonged exposure to the elixir in her youth when she was held captive by Russian scientists, and a lot of other handwavey things, it had a permanent affect on Nadia, expanding her precognitive abilities to the point where she might have a prophetic dream about . . . just about anything, really.
So if you ever want some cracked out bizarro hints about coming plots or some such, I can have my poor girl dream again.
Some other information on Nadia: when I first had her in game, Nadia was just a street kid who'd lucked out in being given a chance to go to school. This summer, however, she traveled back to Argentina to be trained in the spy gig that she is eventually so good at in the show. She spent a year in training, went through all the flashback events of the season 4 episode "The Orphan" (up to and including killing someone), and came back to find that only five days had passed in Fandom.
Naturally, Nadia is just a little bit cracked in the head.
So, that's the bare basics of Nadia, really. She's good at sneaking, she can fight hand to hand or with weaponry, and she's got a suspicious streak a mile long. She's a bit of a drama queen, but essentially a nice person, though watch that temper of hers.
Lalalalala, the end.
