Personality-
Dasha is a girl who could be described as socially inhibited. She has an inner emotional resistance to approaching, befriending people, or being the center of attention. She fears rejection and performing a task poorly or completely failing. Naturally she is quiet because of this inhibition. When she attempts to speak or make a connection with others, it is very subtle and swift. This results in a misconstrued belief of hostility, causing people to think she is cold and unapproachable. However, this is far from the truth, as Dasha actually chooses to hide her personalities. Her other personality-- which goes by the name Astrid Soto-- is far more sociable than Dasha. Dasha is very sensitive. The slightest comment about her personality or appearance can really leave her feeling insignificant. This has resulted in her being a people pleaser. Dasha will go out of the way to make others like her in spite of of repercussions. She cares a lot about people’s problems, and tends to put their priorities in front of hers.
People’s usual opinion about Dasha is that she is very spoiled and bratty. This is all a misconception of who she really is brought on by Astrid. Despite her family’s vast wealth, she prefers to be simple. Dasha would rather choose a night of reading bedside than clubbing in the Upper East Side. Unfortunately, due to Astrid’s manipulative demeanor, she has no choice but to do as she is told. Over the years she has developed extreme anxiety, specifically in social settings. Dasha hates crowded rooms. Being around people she does not know makes her feel petrified and unfamiliar in her own body, igniting memories of her past.
Dasha could furthermore be described as dutiful. She has a distinct sense of obligation whenever she is doing something and will work hard to do her best. It is very uncommon to find yourself dissatisfied by her work. Dasha habitually goes the extra mile to try and fulfill her responsibilities, especially in group settings. In addition, it’s likely she’ll be very humble with her work. Her modesty sometimes clouds the final exertion. Dasha feels like most of her work is not as good as the person standing next to her. This can, of course, sometimes lead to people choosing to abandon her ideas.

Abilities/Powers/Skills-
Hypothalamus manipulation:
Dasha is able to manipulate the hormonal output of the anterior pituitary gland, which is controlled by the Hypothalmus-lobe of the brain. At her current state she is only able to control the simplest of human emotion; desire. Dasha’s touch can produce an extreme hormonal imbalance resulting in an unmanageable sexual lust for her, regardless of sexual orientation. This can lead to victims feeling the uncontrollable need to impress her by any means possible, resulting in a trance-like state.
Limits-
Dasha’s limitations are unique in that her ability only appears when she is Astrid. In addition, her ability is rather new and uncontrollable. Although she can't access her abilities as Dasha, the effects of her ability can remain even after she has switched over from Astrid. This can result in Dasha’s biggest fear; obsession. Victims of hypothalamus manipulation can become too infatuated by their masters causing them to commit exceptionally maniacal action. Depending on the amount of time she has come into physical contact with her target the affects of her ability typically wear off anywhere from five to sixty minutes.
Appearance-
Dasha has dark brunette hair that reaches the middle of her back with a natural wave that is occasionally straightened. The ends are even for the most part, though there are layers up to her bangs throughout the cut. It is never in the same hair style for more than a day, whether she changes it by putting it up in a messy bun one day, or leaving it down the next. Her eyes are usually surrounded by cosmetics. Depending on the occasion she will change on the amount and what colors are used. She rarely wears lipstick, and wears lip gloss instead. However, if the event calls for it she will not complain.
She does not have a lot of distinguishing features. The ones that she has are always usually hidden very well. Dasha has both of her ears pierced, three times along her lobe and another bar through the top of her right ear. In addition, she also has a large scar on her left side, running the length of her torso she received from a car accident.
As for clothing, she listens to Astrid who is rather picky. She will not wear the same items twice in one week because Astrid tells her it is bad for her image. From dresses, to skirts, to jeans, she wears everything rather well. She stays away from band tee-shirts unless there is absolutely nothing left to wear. Her shoes range anywhere from heels to flats, depending on the outfit and how she's feeling. Both Dasha and Astrid hate hats of all kinds, and the idea of putting anything on their head is out of the question.
The accessories they go through are last minute things- for the most part. Dasha has a necklace her father gave her, passed down through her family, and she wears that with everything, no matter the dress code. Aside from that, she holds no attachments to accessories, and applies them whenever she thinks they're needed. However, for her to wear it, it has to complement whatever mood she is in.

History-
Born to Yuri Vladamir Korshunova and Catherine Sophia Ferreira on November 21st, it should be little more than obvious that Dasha had wealth running in the family. Dasha was raised in New York City’s Upper East Side, and her life started much better than most. Her father was a very important business magnate and philanthropist, and held chairman and chief executive positions for telecommunications companies Telmex and América Móvil. At the time of his death he was valued at nearly fourteen billion dollars. Starting at a young age, Dasha was put into a wide range of different classes; music, different languages, manners, and language elocution to name a few. He used the money from his business endeavors to pay for everything, furthering the possibilities to his daughter's life.
Because of her Russian and Brazilian heritage, Dasha learned how to read, write, and speak both Portuguese and Russian. Like English, she became extremely fluent in both, as though they were her native tongue. Over the course of her childhood, she mastered piano and the flute, though she refused to stand in a choir and sing. She was home schooled until the age of thirteen, her parents having paid for multiple home teachers to move into their estate to keep her schedules strict and serious. Her English and maths were the easy subjects, as well as science, but her parents focus wasn't on that. They made sure that she had a cultural subject in her home schooling, to give her a taste of foreign lands and meanings behind different cultures.
When she left for boarding school at the beginning of grade nine, it was her first experience truly away from her parents. Considering she was more than just a bit spoiled, Dasha was an instant target for bullying. Friends never came easily, despite her wealth and family status. She hid her knowledge of most things, or at least toned it down quite a bit when speaking out loud, because she knew if she sounded too smart, she would be a larger target. Isolating herself from other students, she began to make friendships with her professors. She became particularly close with her physics teacher; Mister Didonato. Dasha would purposely fail test, or turn in her homework late in hopes that he would ask her to stay after class.
He started to become her only friend. Dasha felt a strong sense of trust in him. He would look after her, making sure that bullies could not harm her, and help her fix her grades so that she could pass. During the tenth grade she was asked to participate in a three day field trip. The school was going to be traveling upstate to a laboratory that studied the latest discoveries in science. Excited, she agreed. Dasha, along with twelve other students left the school and began traveling. When they reached their hotel, they checked in and hurried to unpack and get to the laboratory as quickly as possible.
The next morning, however, she began to feel sick. Mister Didonato agreed to stay behind, and watch over her while the rest of the students left with the other chaperones. Dasha was grateful to have such a nice person caring for her. After her nap, she woke up when she heard a knock on the door. Mister Didonato came into her room with a warm lunch for her. The two talked for a while. Dasha was perfectly content with staying behind until he leaned in and kissed her. Dasha was scared, but did not want to get him in trouble. Instead she kept it a secret.
Over the next few months Dasha became less dependent on Mister Didonato’s friendship. She tried to distance herself from him, but found it difficult. He would constantly come up with ways to get her to stay behind after class. What started out as simple grooming became much more abusive. He eventually began to touch her, and Dasha became frightened. Over time the abuse matured, resulting in forced sexual favors. Dasha began to become frightened by her friendship, but feared that she would be punished if she told anyone. Instead she adopted a closed door policy, keeping the exploitation between herself and mister Didonato. Dasha became more reclusive, and disheartened as the abuse continued, eventually leading to a failed suicide attempt.
As the abuse progressed, Didonato began to expose her to drugs and alcohol. While serving detention with him, Didonato drugged her with Rohypnol powder. Dasha awoke to an unknown stranger performing sexual acts on her. Later, discovering she was pregnate, she decided to tell her parents. Upon finding out, they became distant, but later took her away from the school, forcing her into an immediate abortion. After she left, the academy decided it best to fire the professor, but pay her parents under the table to cover any scandal.
Dasha, however, was not informed about the settlement. Instead she returned home wanting to start a new life for herself. Fortunately, her father was being offered a better job and more money from a corporation in New Hampshire. Apparently he had had this entire plan worked out for them. They were going to get a large estate, complete with chefs, maids, and butlers. Dasha was not going to attend school for her grade eleven year. As an alternative, her father decided on her being home schooled so she could get settled into her new home.
During the move, the family decided they would drive. However, what was originally meant to be a road trip later turned into the most horrific moment in Dasha’s life. While traveling northbound on highway I-94, their vehicle was struck by a drunk driver. Their car was pinned under the bed of a semi-truck. Being the only survivor, Dasha was trapped in the vehicle for twenty minutes with the horrifically distorted bodies of her parents. After the accident Dasha was brought home to New York where she was looked after by a close family friend. However, the care-taker began to notice that she was showing some strange behaviors. Dasha fell into a deep depression and battled with thoughts of suicide. Eventually she pulled through, but the psychological scarring had been evident.
Years later, Dasha began to notice blackouts, strange in nature. Rather than waking up on the floor, she would wake up in a completely different location, wearing clothing she did not recognize. Frightened, she set up cameras around her home. After recording herself for some time she was shocked at what she found on the tapes. This was she first discovered Astrid, her alternate personality. Dasha quickly took the tapes to her psychiatrist who diagnosed her with dissociative-personality disorder. Eventually Astrid, fighting for dominance in the body, revealed herself to Dasha. Dasha tried multiple medications and began attending psychotherapy sessions five times a week. Finding no success, she eventually warmed up to Astrid, allowing her to switch in and out of consciousness as she pleased. Dasha now lives in her family’s New York City penthouse, living off the immense profits her father left her.
Anything else?-
Dasha suffers from a complex psychological disorder; dissociative-identity disorder, more commonly known as multiple personality disorder. According to WebMD, dissociative-identity disorder may be a result of severe trauma during early childhood. Dissociative-identity disorder is a severe form of dissociation, a mental process, which produces a lack of connection in a person's thoughts, memories, feelings, actions, or sense of identity. The dissociative aspect is thought to be a coping mechanism -- the person literally dissociates himself from a situation or experience that's too violent, traumatic, or painful to assimilate with their conscious self.
In Dasha’s case, she created the alter ego of Astrid Soto; the twenty year old sister of Dasha. Astrid, unlike Dasha, is a vivacious young seductress with a cold and manipulative personality. More often than not her main target is Dasha, as Astrid is often fighting for dominance of the body. Astrid is snake in the bush, cold and mean spirited. She suffers from antisocial-personality disorder herself. She has no connection to her empathy, and will cause physical harm to others. Astrid is a skilled boxer and locksmith. Her major flaw is that she has anti-social personality disorder, more commonly know as being a sociopath.
Besides Astrid, there are currently no other personalities present. It’s important to remember that the alternate personalities one creates are essentially completely different people, living in the body of the host personality. Any talents, wants, and desires that Astrid has are hers and hers alone. Astrid’s views on the world are unique to herself, and are not necessarily shared with Dasha. Dasha has no recollection of the people she meets, or the actions she preforms while Astrid is in control, and can therefore can not be held responsible.
Sample RP-
Astrid made her way down the winding path of concrete to her destination. Clutching her leather jacket, she shivered violently. This morning’s rain had left behind a slight cold front, and the only heat was that of the businesses next to her as she walked. Astrid stopped, leaning on the wall of a café. Reaching into her snake skin boots, she pulled out a cigarette, and slipped it in her mouth. It was stupid to carry a purse in this part of town. Even Dasha knew of the trouble that it could invoke. Astrid took a few puffs before continuing. She thought back to what her friends would say; probably something about how smoking is bad for her. She dismissed the thought from the back of her mind. She knew for a fact, that the cigarette would only make her colder and wished that she could reach her destination quicker. She continued down her way, pulling a small flask from her jacket. Without stopping, she poured the whiskey down her throat. Astrid made a sour face as the brew warmed her body. Astrid hated whiskey, but at least she had something to counteract the effects of the nicotine. Tired, she flagged down a taxi.
Astrid stopped and looked across the street to the night club. The 40/40 Club was an exclusive night club that Astrid loved to attend. From where she stood across the street, she could feel tremors from the bass of the music pounding inside. The darkly tinted windows flashed luminous flares of gold, scarlet, blue, and jade. Outside stood an armada of giant bouncers, and a line that stretched down the sidewalk. Being an exclusive VIP, Astrid didn't worry as she strutted inside the night club, passing up the line. Astrid smiled, feeling a warm sensation as the bouncers simply allowed through.
Inside, Astrid walked to the doors leading to the VIP section. The bouncers were too tied up with drunken buffoons, so she simply allowed herself in. The night club was on fire tonight. It was, in fact, as packed she had ever seen it. Placing her things down in a booth, she walked over to the railing and looked down at the dance floor. At least a hundred or so of New York’s youngest were busy dancing and flirting with each other. Astrid rolled her eyes at a group of overweight girls she noticed in the corner. ”Fucking cows.” she mumbled under her breath. Astrid made her way to the VIP bar. ”White Russian, please.” she said, ordering her drink. As she sat at the bar Astrid turned and looked around the VIP lounge, picking out the wealthiest people around her.
