Hello Stalkers!
A few months ago we had a plan to introduce you more closely to the profiles of Igor's companions, and in such a way that you won't see in the game. Unfortunately, for reasons beyond our control, we had to suspend the series for a while. Today we are back, because we have another, equally important character to introduce to you.
She is the guardian of the Red Forest. She's tough-minded, direct, honest to a fault, very, very stubborn and fearless. Once she makes a decision, it is very difficult to convince her to change her mind. This is Olga Astapienia, who, together with her stepfather, leads a small group of samosels who bravely fend off attacks by NAR mercenaries.
It is true that the cast of Chernobylite consists overwhelmingly of men. However, contrary to what you can see in the game, from the very beginning we planned to add a female character to the game (not counting Tatyana, who is the driving force behind the whole story). We wanted to show the samosiels as resourceful people who can live in difficult conditions. And their leader should be a strong person whose family went through some hard time in Chernobyl and, like them, decides to stay in these lands and help others. At first, Olga was looked upon with distrust. After all, she is a woman and a stranger from a big city - what can she know about the art of survival? It turns out that she knows quite a lot.
Raised among men, tomboyish, direct, with an almost soldierly manner. She is not an overly gentle girl. Olga meets all the requirements of a leader, although she has never defined herself as such. People follow her and have full confidence in her skills and intentions. She is completely dedicated to her mission and has no time for anything or anyone else. The exception to this rule is her husband Kostek and father Matviey - both of whom she loves very much.
As with the other companions, the character of Olga was also modeled on characters known from history and pop culture: Erin Brockovich, Michonne (Walking Dead), Ruby (Cold Mountain), Black Mamba (Kill Bill), Ellen Ripley (Alien), Furiosa (Mad Max), Trinity (Matrix), Sarah Connor (Terminator).
And that's it! We have completed the presentation of the whole merry bunch. But this is not the end - after all, in addition to the main characters, there are also the supporting ones, equally important to the story in Chernobylite. So expect more entries in the near future.
That's it for today!
Take care, Stalkers!
