Nothing else was known about her prior to World War II.<br/><br/>There are varying accounts of Romanova's early life. One account states that Nazis set the building Natasha was living in on fire in Stalingrad, and her mother threw her out the window to a Russian soldier before dying in the fire. The soldier’s name was Ivan Petrovitch, and he watched over Natasha for her entire life, remaining by her side as her chauffeur.<br/><br/>While under Ivan's protection, many adversaries attempted to attack her. Baron von Stucker abducted Natasha and presented her to the Hand in Madripoor. There, she was to become their Master Assassin until Captain America, Logan, and Ivan saved her. As Natasha grew and matured, she proved to be an amazing athlete and scholar, while gaining distinction in the USSR as a ballerina. The Soviet government intelligence (KGB) decided that the skill set of this couple would make them superb special operatives, and split them up while Alexi was away on a mission. Trained as the Red Guardian, Alexi became the Soviet Union’s answer to the United States’ Captain America. Natasha was told that her husband died in an experimental rocket crash, and was drafted into the KGB. She became their best operative from being trained in the infamous Red Room Academy, becoming excellent at fighting and information gathering. During this time she had some training under the Winter Soldier. It was there she was first dubbed the “Black Widow.”<br/><br/>Black Widow was assigned to assist Boris Turgenov in the assassination of Professor Anton Vanko for defecting from their country by infiltrating Stark Industries in America. Tony Stark, the original Iron Man, continually foiled her schemes against Stark Industries. Romanova later met the novice archer Hawkeye and set him against Iron Man, and later helped Hawkeye battle Iron Man. Unfortunately, Hawkeye's association with Russian spies would label him a criminal in his early career. But both eventually came around and became heros. She worked with the Champions of Los Angeles, who disbanded due to bankruptcy, and attempted a partnership with Hercules without success. In time, Black Widow came back to the Avengers and became a co-leader, managing ops at home base while Black Knight lead in the field. When the majority of the Avengers were killed during the Onslaught saga, she was unable to rebuild the team while fighting off lawsuits from the Maria Stark Foundation. She always felt as if the Avengers dissolution was solely her fault.<br/><br/>Natasha, still one of the world’s most sought-after espionage agents alive, was recruited by Iron Man and Ms. Marvel to be on the newest team of Avengers alongside the Sentry, Ares, the Wasp, and Wonder Man. She immediately proved herself in battle against the Mole Man's biological creatures and continued to do so when taking command of SHIELD during the Ultron crisis. After the Siege of Asgard, Black Widow joined Commander Rogers' new Secret Avengers. Time later, when the Stark Tower was rebuilt, she joined the Avengers' main team and even had a room there. She played a vital role in helping Spider-Man defeat the Sinister Six's latest scheme when she, Spider-Man and Silver Sable were the last heroes left standing after the Six defeated the rest of the Avengers (Albeit because she was the closest Avenger to Sable's cloaked plane.<br/><br/><strong>POWERS/ABILITIES:</strong><br/><br/>◾Peak Human Strength: Her physical strength is at the peak level of natural physical limits of a woman of her height, weight and build. She is capable of lifting up to 500 lbs.<br/><br/>◾Peak Human Speed: Her speed is also enhanced to the peak of human capability. Natasha is as fast as a human can be without being classified as superhuman.<br/><br/>◾Peak Human Agility: Natasha's natural agility is heightened to a level greater than that of an Olympic gold medalist. She can coordinate her body with balance, flexibility, and dexterity easily.<br/><br/>◾Peak Human Reflexes: Her reaction time is similarly enhanced and functions with superhuman efficiency and capability.<br/><br/>◾Peak Human Durability: Natasha's bodily tissues have been augmented to the pinnacle of human development.

Natasha is also subseptiable to mind control from a telepath on the level of the X-men, such as Psylocke ore Emma Frost. Natasha can also be taken down by energy based attacks and the elements but she would put up one hell of a fight. And on a personal note the Super Soldier serum has kept her in her physical prime, its effects on her body have made pregnancy impossible. Natasha`s past means not even those closet to her can ever fully trust her one hundred per cent.<br/><br/><strong>PERSONALITY:</strong><br/><br/>A mistress of seduction and of lies, Natasha is the perfect spy, with a determination to survive no matter the cost.<br/>Natasha as "Red in her ledger" and as such feels she has a lot of mistakes to correct.<br/>She has had romantic relationships with Hawkeye, Daredevil, and Captain America (Bucky Barnes).<br/>Her Romance with Hawkeye has turned into a solid lasting friendship, however her time with Matt Murdock was very intense and as such the two have difficulty been in the same room together, for years after the stayed friends with benefits, until she fell for Bucky Barnes who was killed six months ago fighting the Red Skulls daughter Sin.<br/>Natasha does not particularly have a social life of her own; she dedicates most of her time to her espionage work.<br/>She has great deal of respect for Captain America as he understands her and she has worked with him on multiple occasions in both super heroics and espionage. Natasha is often his first choice as a second-in-command officer in the Avengers, enabling her to utilize all of talents.<br/><br/><strong>EQUIPMENT:</strong><br/><br/>Personal Weaponry: The Black Widow's Gauntlets are wrist cartridges containing various tools of the spy trade: tear-gas pellets, a radio transmitter and spring-loaded cable.<br/><br/>Special Weaponry: Various automatic weapons and firearms, combat knives and explosives as needed.
