Physical appearance:
Nasta has long, straight black hair that reaches to her bottom. However, she usually wears it in two braids, intertwined down her back. She has small blue eyes, they are not double lidded, so they look asian. Nasta has high cheek bones and a very harsh face. Nasta is quite short, only 4 feet 11 inches and is not very slim. Not fat, no, Nasta would not let herself but not slim. On her back, her veins are very close to the surface. She also has a pair of blue dragonfly wings on her back that fold down easily so they can be consealed under a loose tee-shirt. Nasta does not walk with the grace you would expect though. The bottoms of her feet were once mangled and now she walks with a funny limp, making her not so suited for field work.
Personality:
Nasta is very polite. She seems at first to be a well brought up, kind person. Of course, this is on the surface. Underneath, she is an evil genius. She can be sharp and cruel. Making her crueler, in her 274 years on this earth, she understands human nature pretty well and designs weapons that play on that. Nasta has very good people skills. She is very convincing and can make a normal person believe that what she wants is really what they want. However, even if she is cruel to some, she has a soft spot fo younger children.

Nasta is very old school with her weapons. She prefers to use a classic rapier that she got in france as a child. Also, she is able to use six pointed ninja stars for long distance.
History:
It is a very long story so I will make it short for you.
Born in England, raised and adopted by an antique dealer.
Moved to France when she was old enough to travel alone. She worked as a seamstress for the resistance against the monarchy, sewing weapons and poisons into the clothes.
Traveled world, trained in weapons and poisons by the japanese, where she learn to use ninja stars.
Lived in Russian during the war, helped children stuck in "Children's Homes" also known as "Free Labor Stores."
Lived in U.S.A during the second war, worked as a techy, help build first computer.
Worked with a gang in Italy. Fought some battles and lost some too. She has the scars to prove it.
Those are just the main points. The things that she did that she was proud of. There is much more that she has done that she wishes hadn't happened.
Other:
Nope!
“the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.”
Jack Kerouac, On the Road
“I have always lived violently, drunk hugely, eaten too much or not at all, slept around the clock or missed two nights of sleeping, worked too hard and too long in glory, or slobbed for a time in utter laziness. I've lifted, pulled, chopped, climbed, made love with joy and taken my hangovers as a consequence, not as a punishment.”
John Steinbeck, Travels with Charley
"Everything looks good from here... (beat...playing with plastic dinosaurs over his console) Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive."
(as Stegosaurus) "We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land'."
(as T-Rex) "I think we should call it...your grave!"
(Stegosaurus) "Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"
(T-Rex) "Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh...now die!"
