About
Dr. Adamovich is a dead woman walking. Every day is just more time going through the slow-motion radiation sickness that gradually eats away at her, just doing her job and trying to contribute to society as much as she can before it inevitably takes her. Only approach if you're alright with the all-encompassing doom and radiation that emanates from her.

Personality
Above everything else, Adamovich is tired. She's nihilistic, she's doomed, and by all means shouldn't logically have much left to live for- but, unfortunately, she's also very persistant. Even with the death sentence of radiation that haunts her, Adamovich does her damnedest to learn and discover as much as she can before it's all over.
Very few could guess this, though, given the constant miserable attitude she has anyway; she makes it extremely obvious that she regrets all the decisions that led her here. She doesn't befriend others easily and takes solace in her self-imposed, Foundation-assigned solitude, and the air of doom is something very, very few can breach.
Backstory
Despite everything, Adamovich doesn't know where things went wrong. Her life prior to working at the Foundation wasn't all that eventful; she grew up in the EU, studied at a university, got a PhD in astrophysics, and worked as a researcher at her college until some workers had to be laid off. The Foundation practically picked her right off the pavement due to her expertise.
Though all involved would have liked to keep her out of the loop (which she resents), she was promoted to Level 3 fairly quickly due to most of her work requiring knowledge of the anomalous.
Years went by before something... happened. A switch flipped. Something.
The beginning of the end came when a geiger counter screamed at her for the first time and it was discovered that she, herself, had become anomalous. It wasn't just that her flesh held radioactivity, but that she was producing it- not enough to immediately poison those around her, but enough for her to be placed in isolation.
After that, life devolved pretty quick- she was no longer allowed off-Site and not allowed to work closely with anomalies, lest she spread radiation sickness wherever she went.
But once things settled down, it's all just been... slow. She took up a cigarette addiction, among other things, and is now just waiting to die of radiation.
Extras
Trivia
- Sometimes people call her "Dr. Atom" and it INFURIATES her.
- Despite everything, she mostly works paper-pushing and writing reports these days.
- The radioactive signs on her lapel are NOT optional; she is required to wear them.
- Adamovich used to be a Level 3 researcher working closely with anomalies- these days are, of course, over.
- Nobody is allowed to work near her for more than an hour without a hazmat suit.
- In fact, she has to live on-site since her anomalous properties could very easily be discovered, and because she is a walking health hazard.
- She smokes about a pack of cigarettes a day.
- Adamovich suffers several skin issues- including splitting, necrosis, and straight up just skin falling off- and as a result, covers up as much as she can.

Professional Coworker / Love Interest
Adamovich's share of paperwork has left her in decent contact with MTF-Kappa-11- especially with its leader. They're pretty good friends, and like to hang out when their schedules (rarely) line up. In a kinder universe, maybe they would be girlfriends- but unfortunately, this world grants them no such kindness.
