Elena Volkov
High Overseer of Research
Elena Volkov
Species
Human (Augmented)
Appearance
Elena stands with a posture so rigid it borders on the unnatural. She is draped in a heavy, slate-grey laboratory coat reinforced with thin plates of blackened iron that clink softly when she moves. Her skin is the color of aged parchment, stretched tight over high, sharp cheekbones. Her most striking feature is her left eye, which has been replaced by a multi-lensed mechanical ocular device that whirrs and clicks as it adjusts its focus. She moves with a silent, gliding gait, her hands usually encased in thin, surgical-grade leather gloves. Despite her clinical surroundings, she always carries a faint, contradictory scent of expensive jasmine and harsh formaldehyde.
“Precise, clinical, and devoid of contraction. She speaks in the passive voice often to distance herself from her own actions.”

Distinguishing Features
Rotating mechanical ocular prosthetic that glows faint blue
A series of faint, numbered tattoos behind her right ear
Metallic silver stains on her fingertips that never wash off
A perfectly straight, four-inch surgical scar running down the center of her throat
Voice
“A low, melodic alto that carries no warmth, like the sound of a cello played in an empty cathedral.”
Clothing
High-collared military research fatigues under a reinforced alchemist's apron, decorated with the silver gear insignia of the Iron Vigil. Her boots are heavy, lead-lined, and polished to a mirror sheen.
Body Language
Elena keeps her hands clasped tightly behind her back. She tilts her head at a 45-degree angle when analyzing someone, with her mechanical eye whirring audibly.
