History:
gregirova--1486110-sibproj-smoking(Psi-Force#17 (fb)) <8 months before the main story> - The Siberian Project's subject Rodstvow awakened from his coma, after which he used his powers over time to progressively slay a number of staff members.

(Psi-Force#17 (fb) - BTS) - The Siberian Project rapidly escalated from a scientific research testing center for paranormals to military training ground. gregirova-1486110-sibproj-skeleton

(Psi-Force#17) <Shortly before October 19, 1987> - Gregirova interview with Rodstvow. After Rodstvow stated, "I am kin with what I choose," Gregirova asked, "And what do you choose now, Rodstvow?"

     Rodstvow replied, "I choose to be kin with God and the Devil." As he did so, Rodstvow caused Gregirova's body to begin to heat up, paining Gregirova.

     As Rodstvow continued, "I choose to be kin to the beginning. And the end," he caused Gregirova to combust, leaving behind only his clothes and skeleton.

(Psi-Force#17 - BTS) - The KGB's Serge Vladimiroff watched -- alongside Siberian Project members Dr. Timor Besedin, Gennadi Shepalev and Anya Zotov -- Gregirova's interview with Rodstvow.

    At Vladimiroff's instruction, Zotov played the video again, after which she morbidly joked, "It loses something in the repetition, don't you think?"

     However, watching it a second time perhaps prompted Besedin to start ranting about Rodstvow being a monster, which led Rodstvow to slay Besedin as well.

Comments: Created by Fabian Nicieza, Ron Lim, and Romeo Tanghal.

    See the New Universe primer.
    There was no sliding timescale in the New Universe, so KGB references are not topical, nor was Soviet-Afghan warring.

    There is not evidence that Anya spoke English. All of her comments were translated from Russian in the stories.
