NASTASHA Ivanovna Belikov was born on February 6th, 2006, to proud parents Anastasiya (called Nastya) Vasiliev and Ivan Belikov. Her mother was a half-blood, while her father was a Muggle - therefore Tasha (as she liked to be called) was a half-blood. Her parents did not think she would have any magic, seeing as up until her 10th birthday, she did not showcase any signs of magic. When she did, finally, prove that there was magical blood coursing through her veins - Nastya was overjoyed. 

THE blonde girl has two siblings - one younger sister and an older brother. Her brother, Alexandre (nicknamed Sasha) usually tends to ignore her, but she still looks up to him. He is 16 years old, and a student at Durmstrang. Her sister, Dasha, is only 6 years old, and Tasha looks after her as if she were her mother. The two have a close relationship, that is, closer than the one Tasha has with her brother. While Sasha was away at school, Tasha and Dasha (no, their parents did not make their names rhyme on purpose) played with each other all the time, thus pushing their relationship to be as close as ever. 

TASHA was born and raised in Yakutsk, Russia. The city was towards the north of Russia, in Siberia, and thus Tasha was quite used to the cold. While her parents were away at work, Tasha would play in the snow with her sister (and her brother too when he was home) and enjoy the outside. She grew up happy, attending Muggle school and learning all the basics. English was taught at her school as well, as a second language, and so Tasha managed to become quite good with both languages.

WHEN she was eight years old, Tasha's mother got a job offer in England, working for the Ministry. It was a hard offer to turn down, and thus, the Belikovs moved to Cambridge, England. Tasha had to adjust to a whole new environment in a matter of weeks, because they had moved just a few weeks prior to when the school year started. One could say it was a hard experience for the young girl, but Natasha powered through it. She adjusted to the system and the language, and manage to make a few close friends. However, to the outside world, Tasha does not seem like the type of girl who likes to go out and talk a lot. Due to the slight language barrier between her and the rest of the students, Natasha can be seen as a shy introvert who prefers to stay away from any type of social interaction - however, in contrast to popular belief, she loves meeting new people. She just doesn't have the chance to. 

TASHA is the first of her family to attend Hogwarts. Seeing as the job offer was not anticipated, her mother always planned for the young blonde to attend Koldovstvoretz. However, there was an aunt (her mother's aunt, or something like that) who had attended Beauxbatons, but apart from her, the Vasilievs had always attended Koldovstvoretz.
