Biography
At some point, her parents and grand-parents wanted her to be a musician, and they paid a russian violin professor called Krupin to teach her. Unfortunately, she wasn't a good musician and she abandoned music.
In 2016, she was contacted by Sebastian Monroe, who offered her to relive her grandparents' memories when they fled Soviet Khazaskhtan. Later, Natalya was brought to a warehouse with several others teenagers ; Owen Meyers, Javier Mondragón, Sean Molloy and the siblings Grace and David Collins.
Monroe explained them the conflict between the Assassins and the Templars and the Pieces of Eden. He explained that they were researching the Trident of Eden, and that each of the teenagers' ancestors had been in contact with one piece of the Trident. Finally, he explained that he wanted to retrieve it before Assassins or Templars to hide it.
To do so, he put the teenagers in the Animus, during the New York City draft riots, in 1863. Natalya relived the memories of Adelina Patti, and felt anxious when the latter sang before a huge crowd. During the riots, Adelina was protected by Tommy Greyling, Sean's ancestor, and fell in love with him while in the same time, Sean fell in love with Natalya.
When the group knew the location of the prong, an Abstergo strike team attacked the warehouse and kidnapped almost the teenagers - except Owen and Javier who fled with a bike. They were conducted to the Aerie, and introduced to Dr. Victoria Bibeau. Then, they encountered Isaiah, who talked them about Abstergo and Templars' real goals. Natalya then isolated herself and when Sean tried to speak to her, she didn't take attention to him. After some time, however, she decided to eat some victuals. Victoria then came to the group, and asked if they ever wanted to go in China.
