Character Info

Profile

Click to expand.

To the public, Melanie Langley is perfectly boring. A part time lab tech at a small lab in Brooklyn, she drinks too much on the weekends, doesn't keep her apartment clean enough, and has no fashion sense. She is not a woman to turn many heads. Of course, if people knew she was Melina Vostokoff, things would be very different. Vostokoff is wanted for betraying the USA many times over, but that was decades ago. Surely she's dead now, right?

Timeline

Click to expand.

Timeline:
1945: Born in the USSR post World War II to a poor family, Melina had very few prospects. She managed to survive being born, however, and that was a show of strength alone.

1949: Instead of starving, Melina's mother sells her to a secret government training program. Melina enters the Red Room at the age of five.

1959: Melina kills her first fellow trainee to continue on in the program.

1963: Melina graduates as a Black Widow for the first time. Due to her excellent command of English and scientifically oriented brain, she is sent to the United States on her first undercover mission to try and steal US R&D secrets.

1965: Meets Jim Howlett in the United States. He helps her out of a difficult situation and learns her identify. She trades some information with him and returns home.

1968: Melina's is found to be slipping in her training, having emotionally bonded with someone in the US. She is sent back through the Black Widow program for the second time.

1969-2001: Melina goes back and forth between the US, Europe, and Russia, doing her best to remain seemingly loyal to Russia but acting as a double agent. During this time, she's caught not 'effectively carrying out her mission' three more times and send back through the Black Widow training each time to be killed or be rebrain washed. She survives (kills her opponents) each time and returns to the field.

2002: Melina is sent on a deep cover mission to the United States with two young, fake daughters. She and her husband act as Americans for two and change years before getting the requested information and returning the very young children to the Red Room.

2005: Having lost the children she never had, Melina starts slow planning her long term goal to get out of the Red Room. They put her through the Widow program again, intensely concentrating on the brainwashing.

2021: Melina is released to New York City on a different mission -- track down rogue Widows. Dottie. Natasha. Yelena. And if she can get some intelligence while she's at it, she'll be considered worthy to return to her country. She just wants free.

Personality

Click to expand.

Guilty:
She fights routinely with her guilt for all the awful things she's done and the horribly scientific achievements she's given her country while she was under orders from them. She knows the Black Widow program would not still exist if it wasn't for her.

Loving:
Despite all this, she has found the ability to love and care for those she's taken care of. There is a big part of her which desperately misses her daughters and wishes to help free more Widows, not take them back.

Pained:
Melina has lived a life of pain. She's learned that pain is what makes you strong. It's the best teaching tool she has because it's the only teaching tool she's ever been given. She loves pain. It lets her know she's alive.

Russian:
While she's lived many years in the US, Melina's sense of humor (very dark), ability to take pain, stubborn survival, and deep seated sardonic feelings about the world are all intensely Russian.

Character Sheet

Powers

Click to expand.

Widow Super Soldier:
Having been experimented on time and again by older scientists at the Black Widow program, Melina does not age like a normal human. As far as anyone can tell, she stopped aging somewhere in her thirties. She also has been given enhanced strength, stamina, and agility as a part of this program. She is not outside of the ability of a human, but she is at peak human physical condition and has remained so for decades.

Skills

Click to expand.

Expert Marksman:
Melina's trained on a wide variety of guns, but she's done long range assassinations with sniper rifles several times over her career and is an expert marksman with whatever long range weapon is best for the situation.

Expert Neuroscientist:
Melina has spent many years as a neuroscientist for the Russian government. She's been experimenting on making mind control serums and keeps a farm of pigs for her experiments back home. She understands how the human mind works with the top scientists of the world and it's been one of the reasons she's been able to break the Red Room programming time and again.

Languages:
Melina is fluent in English, Russian, French, Spanish and German. She has some spotty understanding of other languages, but those are the languages she's had to go undercover in and she can speak them like a native.

Master Martial Artist:
Through the Red Room five times and always having survived, Melina is an expert is physical combat at the top of her fight with the other trained super soldiers in the world.

Master Spy:
Melina has been trained and acting as a spy for 50 some years now. She's been in every sort of undercover situation possible and convinced many experts of the truth of her words.

Pilot:
Not a world class expert, Melina can still fly a plane in a pinch and has operated many aircraft over the years.

Staff Mastery:
One of the weapons Melina is extra comfortable with is a long staff. She can use it defensively and offensively to keep her opponent away from her body enough that they cannot get in a touch while still doing immense amounts of damage to them.

Tactician:
Having being in a wide variety of fights and situations, Melina is a skilled tactician who can make battle strategies on the fly and adapt to any sort of combat situation.

Resources

Click to expand.

Personal Stash:
While in the United States, she has built up a personal stash of money, fake identities, a small paid off apartment in Brooklyn, and some weapons just in case she needs to go under ground. None of these things are big or flashy, they are just enough for her to get away and survive for a few years if she leaves the Red Room permanently.

The Red Room:
Until she entirely betrays them and while she can convince them she is still on assignment for them, Melina has access to back up, equipment, and information that the Red Room is willing to feed her. They control it all, of course, and can take it back at any point in time.

Weaknesses

Click to expand.

Adopted Daughter:
She still loves those little girls she 'adopted' under government orders. They could be used against her for many different reasons if she ever found them again.

Double Agent:
She's betrayed everyone in Russia. She's betrayed everyone in the US. Who knows who can trust her? She certainly doesn't. There is no reason to trust this woman after all the things she has done.

Hopeless:
After so many years going back and forth to the Black Widow program, getting free, being pulled back in, rinse, repeat, Melina has lost much of her hope that she actually will ever be able to free herself or change the world. She's doing it on habit as much as anything.

Red Room Brainwashed:
Despite the fact that she's found ways to break the most intense parts of her training, she still has a few trigger words they have planted deep in her mind. These include Candlelight, Slippers, Blanket, and Birthday (in Russian, of course). Said in that order, and even Melina will not be able to free her mind from their orders until she is knocked unconscious.
