<div align="center">(http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/8706b859.jpg)</div><br/><del><strong>Name:</strong> Dr. Avery Natalia Kovalevsky-Richter.<br/><strong>Age:</strong> 27 years.<br/><strong>Sex:</strong> Female.<br/><strong>Race:</strong> Tau'ri.<br/><strong>Occupation:</strong> Medical Practitioner.<br/><strong>History:</strong> Avery grew up in a strict, traditional Ukrainian family until the age of eight when her father died and mother remarried an American marine. Though both she and her twin sister were adopted by their new stepfather, Avery chose to keep her biological father's last name in an effort to stay connected to him. (She was closer to him, than to her mother, and grew up resenting her mother for marrying so quickly after his death.) She is exactly two minutes younger than her identical twin Anastasia, however she is often seen as the more responsible and mature of the pair. <br/><br/>After graduating from high school, Avery followed a longtime dream of being part of something pertaining to the medical field. At first, she studied to be a simple radiologist, but her fascination with science, anatomy, and physiology tempted her to pursue a more in-depth career. Quite the driven, independent woman, Avery completed her studies and became a certified medical practitioner before the age of twenty-five, making her one of the youngest in the field. A quick learner and talented doctor, her reputation preceded her on many occasions and within a year -- with the influential recommendation of her stepfather -- she gained a spot as one of the chief practitioners of a military base hospital.<br/><br/>Through her relocation to SGC, Avery also happened to marry an eccentric man, Nathan Richter, after a long four years of debatable dating. As he finds his feet with the SG community, Avery holds her options open; her skills and knowledge are valuable tools, so she is willing and able to work any place in need. Her wanderlust and curiosity are forever eager to satisfy her ambitions for opportunities of <em>more</em>.<br/><strong>Looks:</strong></del><div align="center"><del>[Click on the thumbnails for reference!]</del><br/><br/><br/>(http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/eae14ded-1.jpg)  (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/6c93485f.jpg) (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/eae14ded.jpg) (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/8a292914.jpg) (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/f5f1b8fb.jpg) (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/85c1b90e.jpg) (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/4da97424-1.jpg) (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/2eedda14.jpg) (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/4da97424.jpg) (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/x_JustKathy_x/b62a5bfa.jpg)</div><br/><del>Avery stands at an intimidating 5'10 (or well, intimidating when she chooses to wear her five inch heels...) and weighs an average 136 lbs. She has a very lithe and limber body, conditioned like a seasoned swimmer, with legs that seem to go on forever. Though she lacks an hourglass figure, Avery does have a generous bust that gives her a sense of womanly greatness. (She often finds herself wishing she was softer in most places, but Nathan doesn't seem to mind her flexible and thin form at all!) Avery has large, dark heterochromic eyes -- a mix of coffee brown and emerald green hues fight for dominance over her irises -- surrounded by thick lashes, and a deep, honeyed complexion that seems almost exotic with her thick brows and wide mouth. To top off her Ukrainian heritage, Avery sports luxuriously thick dark brown hair (usually kept at mid-back length), as well as a gentle splash of freckles across her nose and shoulders.<br/><strong>Extra:</strong> She has an asymmetrical tea set tattooed across her lower back with the words: "Curiouser and curiouser..." in script along the bottom. She also wears a white-gold wedding band around her left ring finger, set with alternating studs of diamond and amethyst. She's not exactly trained up to par with weapons combat, but in close range, Avery can hold her own. Her stepfather was sure to teach her marine hand-to-hand, so in the worst case scenario, Avery can put someone in a leg lock that will have them crying uncle.</del>
