Natasha Volkova
# Personality and background
Natasha Volkova is a Russian commando, skilled with the use of her sniper rifle and target designator. Born in Leningrad (formerly Saint Petersburg, Petrograd, is a large metropolis in the Soviet Union and former capital of the Russian Empire, located on Russia's Baltic coast. It is named after the Soviet revolutionary hero, V.I. Lenin.), Nastasha's astonishing talents with a rifle were allegedly scouted early by Soviet military recruiters, who worked with the press to ensure that her name would be known as a hero of the people. This exposure has elevated her to a folk hero status, as people turn out in droves to see her at appearances on national holidays and military parades. Autograph memorabilia have sold for tens of thousands of rubles though people rarely part with such treasures, a testament to her fame. Records of her exploits are exaggerated however, but Volkova is allegedly hell-bent on living up to her legendary image.

However, some say that this Russian beauty has a dark side as well. Despite fierce denial by government sources, and even incarceration of journalists who question the details of her life and military career, further rumors about Natasha are abound amidst conscripts. Those who have witnessed her in combat speak of unfathomable cruelty. One well known story is that she killed six Allied prisoners of war with a single shot from her custom rifle. Also, some say she is not even of Russian descent, or that she may not even be the "real" Natasha Volkova. Skeptics point to her youthful appearance, despite the fact she has operated in so many combat situations in a relatively short period of time. Which has led many to believe that there cannot be only one Natasha. Yet one undeniable fact is that she is an expert marksman as some say her unconventional techniques are like an elaborate dance. Whatever the case may be, there is no doubt that Natasha is a deadly opponent.


# Abilities
She was protecting the Fort against Kenji's Shogun Battleships and was a true rival to Tanya when it came to swimming. She was forced to team up with Tanya, and Tanya didn't like her very much because of her ego (which Tanya hated because Tanya's just as arrogant). She is also able to swim in colder water unlike Tanya. In a one on one battle, she is stronger than Tanya, due to her superior range and versatility.
Natasha's Badger Bombers are unusually powerful, with a single bomb capable of destroying a Construction Yard. Natasha's special abilities are the ability to kill several soldiers with one shot and she can call in air strikes. Due to a combination of her long range and ability to kill any infantry unit with a single hit, Natasha is also among a few units capable of effectively countering the Empire's psychic commando, Yuriko Omega.
Natasha is easily countered by any anti-infantry units (especially Sickles), especially en masse. War bears and attack dogs can kill Natasha in one hit, assuming they get close enough. Natasha's greatest weakness is her slow firing rate, whether it be for normal fire, calling in airstrikes, or sniping vehicle crews. Also she cannot attack air targets.

# Red Alert 1:
In an attempt to prevent WWII from ever happening, Albert Einstein invents the Chronosphere, a machine capable of bending the laws of the universe, and moving matter through time and space. Einstein goes back in time to 1924, and is seen with a young Adolf Hitler. Einstein's negotiations prevent Hitler from ever rising to power and sparking World War II. The only problem with this, however, is that the Nazi forces in WWII were the only thing standing in the way of and preventing Joseph Stalin's own revolution for the USSR in 1953. With nobody to stop the Russian forces, they slowly take land from several other provinces. They then proceed to invade eastern Europe, forcing all countries into an alliance to prevent the deadly war machine that the Soviets became... Welcome to World War II

A chrono vortex threw Yuri (a powerful psychic that was once Premier Romanov's chief advisor and later turned against the world in a bid to take it over with his army of genetically altered humans and beasts. Most likely, he, not Romanov, was the true ruler of the USSR in the 1970s), back in time to Red Alert 1. Yuri was the result of Nod's psychic experimentations during Tiberian wars. It is Yuri that will give Albert Einstein the knowledge for Chronosphere.
The rest isn't important.

# Yuri's Revenge:
Yuri, the powerful Soviet psychic and advisor, disappeared after the Allied victory over the Soviet Union in Red Alert 2. One day, US President Michael Dugan was called to an emergency meeting at the White House regarding Yuri's activities. Yuri disrupts the briefing, revealing to the stunned President that he had built a network of Psychic Dominators which he intended to use to mind control the entire planet. As Yuri's troops entered San Francisco to capture power plants to bring the Alcatraz Psychic Dominator online, Professor Einstein hatched a plan to travel back in time to the events of Red Alert 2 to stop Yuri and prevent the "Psychic Dominator Disaster".
The Allies used Einstein's Time Machine to travel back in time and destroy the Psychic Dominator on Alcatraz while it was still under construction. Afterwards, the Allied Taskforce commanded by the player must deal with Yuri's many secret military bases around the world, including those in the United States, Egypt and Australia. Having failed to clone world leaders after his cloning vats in Sydney were destroyed, Yuri attempted to mind control world leaders at the Allied-Soviet peace conference. This was thwarted by the player, who were then sent to destroy Yuri's remaining base in Antarctica.
