Name Meaning › It is derived from the Zarkidian word “Synrøtte” which means “sunshine” or “light.” Named By › She was named by her parents, the King and Queen of Zarkidia. Reason this name was chosen › Due to the fact that her parents had such a hard time having their second child, there was much rejoicing in the kingdom when she was born. The people of Zarkidia began to refer to her as their “little light”, and she was named to fit this — named so that she always remember to bring hope to her people, even in the darkest of times. Official Title › Her Royal Highness, Princess Synnøvra of Zarkidia. Second-in-line to the Zarkidian Throne.

It was a momentous occasion and one full of joy. Age ›Eighteen. Age Appearance › She looks her age. However, due to experimentation with serum from Hydra, her age has been halted — similar to the Super Soldier Serum used on Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes. Home › She has never really had a home, considering she was taken from Zarkidia as a baby. It is technically her home, but at times she often feels that she doesn’t belong there, and that she is not worthy of the title that she holds. Location › Depending on RP. It can take place in her home kingdom of Zarkidia or elsewhere. ✗ Gender and Orientation ✗ Gender › Female Pronouns › She/Her Sexual Orientation › Bisexual Romantic Orientation › Biromantic Previous Relationships › None. She actually doesn’t know much about romance. She has spent her entire childhood locked up underground in Hydra Compounds, and nobody there thought it was important to show her what love is. In fact, what she saw of romance was usually negative — she would see her Hydra “parents” argue often, usually involving physical violence. Because of this, she is somewhat fearful of romance and marriage. ✗ Physical Appearance ✗ Nationality › She is Zarkidian. Complexion › Pale-Skinned. She might be a little too pale, due to the fact she spent the majority of her life indoors with no access to direct sunlight. She tends to burn quite easily. Height › 5’4 Weight › 99 lbs Over/Underweight › She is a little underweight due to often being starved during her time with Hydra. Blood-Type › O Blood Color › Red ✗ Defining Physical Characteristics ✗ Eye Color › Green, though with a hint of blue if the light catches them in the right way.

Body Build › Slim Body Shape › Pear. Birthmark › She has a small birthmark in the shape of a butterfly on her right hip. This recognizes her as part of the Zarkidian royal family. They have had these birthmarks since the ancient times. Ermolai tried to get rid of the birthmark, but it is unable to be destroyed. Scars › Synnøvra has the symbol of Hydra branded into her shoulder. It was branded into her when she was eight-years-old and Ermolai began to officially train her to become the Blood Rose. She has a scar on her right arm from a time that she tried to rescue a prisoner from being killed. She’s very proud of this. Posture › She stands up straight, though she tends to shift from foot to foot often as she is usually very nervous. She also hugs herself a lot (it brings her comfort). Walk › She has a little bit of a slow walk, she often likes to stop and look at everything around her — something that can seem annoying to the people that she is around. Right/Left Handed › Right-Handed. Handwriting › Incredibly childish scrawl. She is embarrassed by it as she thinks that a princess should have better writing than that. ✗ Intellectual Information ✗ Intelligence Level › She is intelligent and has a very analytical mind. During her time in Hydra, she would often be given the task to hack into enemy computers and allow Hydra to monitor them from afar. Educational Background › She was taught by her adoptive father in Hydra, who put a huge influence on teaching her Hydra’s values. She also learned reading, writing, arithmetic and computer coding. Skills › She is incredibly skilled at hacking into computers. She’s also good with numbers and can usually figure out any math problem that comes her way. Ineptities › The modern world can often be confusing to her. Despite the fact that she is skilled with computers, she has no idea about social media or Internet slang. ✗ Known Languages (in order) ✗ First Language › Russian. It was the primary language that she spoke growing up. She has spent a lot of her time believing that she actually /was/ a Russian. Second Language › Norwegian. Her adoptive mother spoke Norwegian and she learned it at home. Norwegian sounds similar to Zarkidian so knowing it helps her to learn her kingdom’s language. Third Language › English. She speaks some English, but it is not her primary language. Fourth Language › Zarkidian. She has begun to learn some Zarkidian phrases. ✗ Vocal Characteristics ✗ Pitch › She is quite soft spoken and rarely raises her voice, except on occasions when she is quite angered, during which time she will usually end up yelling. She often feels quite guilty afterwards. Speech Mannerisms › She tends to stutter and say things like “uh” or “mm” quite a lot. ✗ Mental State ✗ Emotional Trauma (and why) › She is very broken, due to spending her time being locked up and abused by Hydra. She is a skittish, fearful young girl who jumps at every little noise and believes that one day Hydra will come to take her back. She has extremely low self-esteem and does not believe that she is in any fit to rule over the people of Zarkidia. Mental Illnesses/Disorders › She suffers from Anxiety and PTSD. ✗ Apparel ✗ Clothing-Style › She wears lady-like clothes, such as floral dresses. She enjoys bright colors. Accessories › She has a silver and blue tiara that she often wears. She also has a collection of bracelets and jewels from Zarkidia. Most Prized Possession › A locket that her birth mother would have given to her when she turned ten. Her sister Hanna gave it to her when they met, and she has never taken it off since. It is the most important thing that she owns. ✗ Religious Information ✗ Current Faith › Faith of the Southern Lights. An ancient faith from her kingdom. She was raised without any beliefs, but she has found comfort in the faith of her people. Strength of Beliefs › She isn’t overly religious, but she believes all the same. Religious Practices › Zarkidia have many festivals and holidays that they celebrate, including the “Festival of Southern Stars”; their version of Christmas. ✗ Personal Quotes and Motto ✗ Personal Motto › “Kindness is the gentle whisper on the wind that makes the enemy put down his sword.” Reason for this › It was a quote that her adoptive mother taught to her, and something that she tries to live her life by. ✗ Backstory ✗ Princess Synnøvra Heizeden was born in the Kingdom of Zarkidia, an island that is close to and twinned with Norway. Because her mother had been having such a hard time having children after the birth of her first daughter, Crown Princess Hanna, the Queen Eira doted on her newborn baby. Unfortunately, the happiness in the kingdom did not last long. Over in a Hydra base in Russia, Almira Markov gave birth to a daughter. A problem with the birth forced her to be put into a medically induced coma for a week, and she was unable to meet her new baby. When Ermolai Markov looked at his daughter, he was horrified to notice that she was disfigured. Not wanting his child to be “damaged”, he sought to get rid of her. But he could not simply kill the child; Almira had been told that the baby was alive before she was put into the coma. Besides this, Ermolai had wanted a child to pass on his beliefs to. So he needed a child to swap out for his disfigured daughter. Around this time, Hydra were invading the kingdom of Zarkidia. Ermolai went along with them. Hydra broke into the palace. The King and Queen tried to fight them off, but were outnumbered. Zarkidia soon fell to Hydra’s control. While in the palace, Ermolai found the baby Synnøvra. Seeing her beauty and noting that he could pass her off for his own child, he decided to take the infant princess with him. Almira was brought out of the coma and met her daughter. She doted on her new child, never knowing that Ermolai had killed her real child. Ermolai and Almira named their new daughter Alyona. Ermolai began to brainwash his daughter to make her entirely loyal to Hydra. From a young age, she was forced to watch the painful experimentation that her father would perform on other people. At the age of eight, Alyona herself became the main focus of her father’s experimentation. His ultimate goal was to create a weapon who would be not only beautiful but also deadly and entirely subservient to himself and to HYDRA’s cause. He would subject her to countless hours of experiments and torture, punishing her severely if she ever disobeyed. She has spent the majority of her life kept hidden away from the outside world. At times when she was found to be particularly disobedient, her father would keep her locked in dungeons, oftentimes chained to the wall with no interaction for days on end. Almira, however, secretly did not agree with her husband, and would constantly instill in her daughter the values of kindness and generosity - not wanting her to become the monster that Ermolai wished to create. She cared deeply for her and wanted her to grow up to be a good and loving person. Alyona had a close relationship with Almira and had a lot of respect and love for her. At age twelve, Alyona was ordered to shoot a captured enemy of HYDRA at point-blank rage. She stood up against her father and refused his order, quoting something that her mother has always taught her: “Kindness is the gentle whisper of the wind that makes the enemy lay down his sword.” As punishment, she was forced to watch as her mother was brutally murdered in front of her. When she turned her eighteen, Ermolai gave her a version of the Super Soldier serum, one that halted her aging, as he did not want her to grow old and lose her usefulness. A few weeks after her eighteenth birthday, Alyona escaped the Hydra base that she was being kept in. She found herself in Brooklyn. After learning about the Fallen Kingdom of Zarkidia, Alyona noted that the birthmark on her hip exactly resembled the birthmarks that that Zarkidian royal family all had. She discovered that she was the kidnapped second-in-line for the throne. Alyona (now going by her birth name of Synnøvra) wrote a letter to the Crown Princess Hanna, in which she included a black-and-white photograph of herself in the hopes that she would be able to reconcile with her sister. Crown Princess Hanna has made an allegiance with the Avengers and those members of SHIELD that were not corrupted by HYDRA in order to ensure her sister’s protection. ✗ Personality ✗ Synnøvra is a shy, polite young girl who has seen and suffered a lot in her short life and is broken because of this. Due to Almira’s teachings, she tries to show kindness to everyone that she meets, even in the simplest of ways. She will put others before herself and would willingly die for her loved ones if the need arose. Self-preservation isn’t really a word that’s in her vocabulary; she was known to get herself into trouble oftentimes in her attempts to protect or show some kindness to prisoners that HYDRA had captured. She is skilled in the art of combat and actually quite a good fighter, though you wouldn’t know it. She’s doesn’t really like to fight, and tries to avoid it if possible. She always feels very guilty when she harms someone, even if that person might have deserved it. She doesn’t understand a lot about the outside world due to being kept in HYDRA captivity for the majority of her life. There are many things that HYDRA never taught to her, feeling it unnecessary. Søni is highly skilled in computer hacking and knows quite a bit about it. She has a keen eye for numbers and mathematics. Her knowledge of etiquette and how to be a princess currently stands at 0%. In fact, she believes herself to be unworthy of the title and thinks that her people would be better off without someone like her. There is also a slight bitterness to Synnøvra, despite all this. She harbors a severe rage towards Ermolai and towards HYDRA, and that scares her. She tries to not let it consume her as she fears that rage will turn her into the monster her father believed she could be. Her biggest fear is that she truly is the monster that Ermolai has tried to make her become. This is why she tries so hard to be kind to everyone that she meets, perhaps to the point of being overly kind. She has trouble saying no to people when they request something from her. There is nothing and no-one in the world that Søni hates and fears more than herself. If Synnøvra feels threatened or is triggered, one of two things will happen. Firstly, she may regress into a childlike mindset. She will speak in short, broken Russian, suck her thumb and generally act a lot younger than she is. She often hides away in high places, too. Secondly, she may go mute for some time. During this time, she is /incredibly/ selective with who she speaks to. She will often only mutter short words or sentences in Norwegian or in the limited Zarkidian that she has learnt, and only then to people she feels safe around. If she has to communicate, she will do so by writing in a notebook that she carries around with her. (She would often be yelled at for speaking her mind during her time with Hydra, which is the reason that she does not like to speak her mind with other people — she tends to clam up when asked to express her opinion.) ✗ Likes ✗ Rabbits › She has a stuffed bunny called Snowdrop that she carries around with her everywhere. It was given to her by her mother and it is her favorite possession. Poetry › She finds it therapeutic and will often write short poems if she’s in the middle of a bad episode. It helps her to become more grounded. Nature › “I’ve been hidden from the beauty this world has to offer for all of my life. Now I’m never going back to the dark places again.” Synnøvra /loves/ nature. She’s happiest when she’s among flowers or playing in fields of lush grass. If she finds a stream, she’s the first to kick her shoes off and go running into it, not caring about how muddy her feet get or if she gets her dress dirty. She’s also got a habit of jumping in puddles whenever she can. Zarkidian Culture › She loves to learn about the culture of her kingdom, since she has missed out on so much. Kindness › Kindness is her reason for living. She believes that the world would be a much better place if everyone was less selfish and tried to understand each other better. In her notebook, she has a special section at the back where she glues newspaper articles about acts of kindness that people have performed. For example, an article about someone saving a life will often find its way in there. ✗ Dislikes ✗ HYDRA › She is angered by how HYDRA treated her and everyone else who was a victim of them. It gets her temper rising and she will /obliterate/ anyone who believes that Hydra are good people. (And then hate herself afterwards for being “rude”) Dogs › They are loud and their barking often scares her. Selfishness › For the same reason that Synnøvra loves kindness, she abhors selfishness and will not hesitate to stand up against it in any way that she can. If she sees someone being mistreated, she will jump right in and try to protect them, oftentimes not caring about the consequences. ✗ Phobias ✗ Yelling › Yelling terrifies her as it brings back memories of how her father would yell at her before particularly bad punishments. If she’s yelled at, she will often run away and hide in a high place until she feels that it’s safe to come down. Sirens › She tends to flinch if ever she hears a siren as it triggers her. The time she’s spent in the outside world has made that phobia lessen a small bit, but she will still clutch her right wrist tightly and mutter “safe and sound” in Zarkidian if she hears a siren. This has earned her a few weird looks from passersby. Needles › Due to HYDRA experimentation, she’s scared of needles and clams up whenever she’s around them. Herself › Søni is terrified that she truly is a monster because of what she has been forced to do by Hydra. Though she does her best to keep this fear hidden, it is constantly haunting her. ✗ Social Class Information ✗ Social Class › Royalty, she is a princess. Kingdom › The kingdom of Zarkidia; a small island that is close to Norway. Line of Succession › She is the second-in-line for the throne after her sister, Crown Princess Hanna. When Hanna becomes Queen, Søni will become the next-in-line. She’s absolutely not ready for this. ✗ Family Information ✗ Mother › Queen Eira Heizeden. Alive/Deceased › Deceased; she was killed when Hydra invaded Zarkidia Father › King Ansgar Heizeden Alive/Deceased › Deceased; he was killed in the Hydra invasion along with his wife Siblings › Crown Princess Hanna Heizeden. Birth Order › She is Søni’s older sister and the heiress to the Zarkidian throne. Due to the death of her parents, Hanna has taken on the mantle of ruling Zarkidia. She is twenty years old and will become the Queen of Zarkidia once she has reached twenty-five, as is their custom. ✗ Hydra Family Information ✗ Hydra Mother › Almira Markovna. Alive/Deceased › Deceased; she was murdered by Ermolai when Synnøvra turned twelve Hydra Father › Ermolai Markovna. Alive/Deceased › Alive. ✗ Up Close and Personal ✗ Biggest Fears › Herself. She believes that she is a monster and that no matter how kind she is, she will never be able to escape from her past. Reason for this fear › She was forced to torture people during her time in captivity. She would always be told that she was full of evil and that she could never shake off what she did in the past. Does it take a toll on them/how often? › Every day. She constantly struggles with her actions in the past. Sleeping Habits › She doesn’t sleep very often. She has terrible nightmares. Insomniac › Yes. Very much, so. In fact, she often spends her time sitting up in her room staring at the wall and repeating phrases in Zarkidian to calm herself. ✗ Favorite Things ✗ Favorite Food › Strawberries. Ability to Cook › Non-existent. She tried once and burned whatever it was she was trying to make. Favorite Color › Lilac. Favorite Music › Classical, pop and country. She likes listening to Taylor Swift. Favorite Book › The Other Countess by Eve Edwards. Why? › She likes the historical romance, it gives her hope. Favorite Movie › Tangled. Why? › She and Rapunzel have a lot in common. Both princesses stolen from the kingdoms and trapped away from the world. Favorite Animal › Starlings. Why? › They are the native bird of her kingdom, believed to bring hope to the people. ✗ Additional Facts about this Character ✗ • She once adopted a kitten that ended up wandering into a Hydra base that she was staying at. It lasted a week before Ermolai found out and made her kill it. • She cries at Bambi because of his mother dying. • She hates it when people fight and will always try to quell any argument that she hears. • She sings along to “When Will my Life Begin” from Tangled whenever she watches it. She feels a strong connection to that song and to Rapunzel. • She would do anything to help those who are in need. • She knows very little about the outside world due to her time in Hydra captivity ✗ Kingdom of Zarkidia ✗ Location › It is a small island located near to Norway. Sigil › The Starling. Royal Family › It has been ruled by the Heizeden family since ancient times. Language › Zarkidian and Norwegian. Current Ruler › Crown Princess Hanna. She will become Queen upon turning twenty-five. Zarkidia is an island that is close to Norway. It used to be a thriving kingdom that was ruled by an ancient line of the Royal Family. This all changed during the invasion of Hydra, where the King and Queen were assassinated, and the Princess Synnøvra was kidnapped. The kingdom fell, but it is being rebuilt by Crown Princess Hanna.
