Description
One more from the series of original characters of BYDURAK, inspired by a series of stories I made back in 2004 (when I was 9-10 years old).
Again, some references here to extant material are blatant, others more smooth. As BYDURAK encompasses different years and dimensions / continuities, the story is quite complex and some characters have more than one version each. This part of the story, set in a post-apocalyptic, sci-fi driven future where the remaining sentient beings have been turned into cyborgs, and the city of NEO ALEXANDRIA ruled by the Cyborg known as Cleopatra faces off the RESISTANCE, also includes time travelling, and some of the characters from this time travel back to the present (2004-5), where they meet their past selves, and seek to aid them in preventing this time from coming into being, or assuring it remains as such.

This character is Neo Alexandria's Oracle, an ally of the ruler Cleopatra who's in charge of the city's religious and divinatory corpus - despite somewhat futuristic, there's still religious hierarchy in Neo Alexandria. She's under the guidance and instructions of the empress, but also has developed a bound with her in a personal level. She's also called by some of the inhabitants of Neo-Alexandria as "The Maid of Relief" because she supposedly uses her mystic powers to help the people. Her Trident is an ancient weapon that once belonged to the Norvagen, an order of sea farers.

Her past counterpart is Katharina Gagarina, a young "Völva" from Karelia, Russia (her town was close to the Russo-Finnish border), who comes from a family of traditional and wealthy witches and warlocks. She was promised to marry a young man from Lithuanian nobility, before the boy's estate was destroyed by an enemy kingdom. Later, she had an arranged marriage with the son of a Norvagen, and both eventually moved overseas for study, in Ashville, California. She was somewhat alienated to a relationship she never chose, however she managed to cope up with different lifestyles. Her true romantic interest grew for a girl she met in Ashville, Anna G., who happens to be the past self of Cleopatra herself, and despite her exploits, it proves to be quite an impossible task to get what she wants. Yet, she's as persistent as she's sly.

I hope you like it as much as I did producing it!
