We had a great time reading through all of the wonderfully imaginative entries for the IKRPG “Tell Us about Your Character” contest! Many thanks to everyone who participated, and a big congratulations to Frank P. Sutton, whose Katya Volgem character captured the hearts and minds of the community and emerged victorious after the final voting round.

Over the next few weeks, Matt Wilson will be working on the character illustration of Katya Volgem, which we’ll reveal on an upcoming episode of PrimeCast+. And then, Katya will make her first official in-setting debut in an October release that looks at one of the darkest threats lingering in the Iron Kingdoms…

Here’s a recap of the “Tell Us about Your Character” winner. Thank you, Frank P. Sutton!

Katya Volgem

“Everybody and nobody”

by Frank P. Sutton

Part 1

Katya Volgem is an Umbrean operative who worked for different factions during the occupation of Llael. Her loyalty to Umbrey puts her at risk of running afoul of political interests both in and outside of Khador that have sought to prey on the volozk since the death of its Great Prince. Katya continues her patriotic work under the guise of hunting the infernal menace within Khador’s borders.

Part 2

Katya can wear many disguises, and some say she can change her own face. When appearing as herself, she is a tall Umbrean woman with an aquiline nose and black hair in a tight bun. She often wears black riding boots, loose wool trousers, a belt with a decorative buckle, a red bodice, a cropped jacket, goggles, fingerless gloves, and a neck scarf. She carries a rapier and a hand cannon for when she needs to go loud.

Part 3

Engaged by the local Prikaz to investigate members of the Ebon Coil operating in Laedry, Katya disguised herself as an adjunct with forged documentation. After gathering the evidence needed and reporting to her superior, she was ordered to kill a Koldun Lord. Her infiltration was successful. As she stabbed him with a poisoned blade and he lay dying, he asked who she was. She answered, “I am nobody.”
