Name: Irina Kobaleva

Age: 23

Occupation: Luxury escort

Sexual Orientation: Bi (there is a world of potential clients and Irina is happy to work with anyone)

Kinks/Style: Whatever the client wants, and is willing to pay for, though Irina does draw the line at requests that cross over into violence

Personality: A chameleon of sorts, Irina can shift her personality to match the desires of her clients. Do they want a submissive and lost immigrant? Perhaps the domineering woman with a cruel streak? She can play all the parts (and has in the past). When by herself or with family and friends, Irina is often quiet and introspective, her thoughts often drifting back to her family and friends suffering in Ukraine. She tends to view relationships as transactional and often evaluates what a friendship can bring her in return.

Appearance: Small and slender, almost to the point of looking too skinny due to the hardships she suffered in Ukraine. Irina still has curves in the right places. Her eyes are a light gray and large with high checkbones. Her blonde hair is straight and long, falling to just below her waist.

History: Irina grew up poor in a small farming village in eastern Ukraine. Though her family often struggled to make ends meet, Irina was happy. Until the day that Russia brought the horror of war to her doorstep. She and her family fled, first to western Ukraine and then Poland to escape the specter of death in the form of Putin. Through using all of their money, Irina's family was able to pay for her to come to the States - a distant cousin was able to act as the sponsor though Irina has not met this person since arriving in the US.

Coming to America with literally no money in her pocket and basic English, Irina soon discovered that the best way to survive was by turning to the world's oldest profession. Her connections in the Ukraine immigrant community in New York introduced her to the owner of the Velvet Pearl. She started dancing as a stripper at the Pearl and then was promoted to escort work, both those dates arranged through the Pearl and also new clients she brought in herself.

Work History: A few months after arriving in America, Irina found part-time employment at the Velvet Pearl. She still freelances on her own when the circumstances permit, but the Velvet Pearl has provided her connections and the ability to also earn money by dancing.

A month ago, Irina was arrested by the police, surprisingly for a series of events that were not her fault. She had stopped to talk to one of her Ukrainian friends who happened to be working a street corner as a hooker. New York's finest had pulled over and arrested the two of them - though Irina had simply been on her way home from the Pearl, her outfit raised some serious suspicions. The search of her purse revealed a small baggie of cocaine that one of her clients had, unknown to her, slipped inside as a token of appreciation. With a pending prostitution/drug charge combining with the Mayor's tough stance on immigration, Irina is facing deportation back to Ukraine unless she can find great legal representation.
