May 12, 1655, Bolehorywka, Cossack Hetmanate

An optimistic, incredibly strong, but very clumsy peasant woman.

Kateryna Beloshchuk is a simple peasant girl from the small village of Bolehorywka, nestled near the banks of the Dnipro River. Cheerful and kind-hearted, Kateryna is known for surprising physical strength — but, alas, natural clumsiness often makes her a danger to herself and others. Especially when she’s entrusted with anything sharp… like a scythe.

Born into a hereditary Cossack family, Kateryna comes from a proud but turbulent lineage. Her father and grandfather were both Zaporozhian Cossacks, which meant they spent much of their lives at the Sich or away on military campaigns. As a result, Katya grew up mostly under the care of her beloved grandmother, who often filled her days with old songs, folk tales, and stories of brave warriors and forest spirits.
As she grew older, Kateryna became strikingly tall and unusually strong. Even as a child, she was lifting troughs and helping pull carts like a grown man. But while the older villagers admired her sturdy build, the local boys found Katya too “unfeminine”, and the village girls — jealous or wary — often mocked her behind her back.

After the outbreak of the Khmelnytsky Uprising and the long war against the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Kateryna’s father left to join the rebel cause.
With no word from him for years, her mother was left alone to raise their daughter. She tried to teach Katya a trade or arrange a suitable marriage, but neither proved successful. Kateryna’s clumsy hands and straightforward nature frightened most suitors away — and the few who stayed usually regretted it after one of her hugs nearly broke their ribs...

BACKSTORY

Kateryna Beloshchuk was born on December 2, 1635, in the small village of Bolehorywka, not far from the Dnipro River. Her father and grandfather were hereditary Cossacks, giving the Beloshchuk family considerable influence in the village. Kateryna’s father was often away, traveling to the Zaporizhian Sich, so she knew him only faintly and spent most of her time with her mother or grandmother.

Kateryna had a special bond with her grandmother, who told her fairy tales, sang old songs, and recited poems. From an early age, Kateryna was tall and remarkably strong. Once, she even defeated a neighbor’s boy in a wrestling match. Unfortunately, her strength made her somewhat of an outcast: the village boys found her too "unfeminine," while the girls envied her and spread gossip.

When the Khmelnytsky Uprising began in 1648, Kateryna’s father left to join the Zaporizhian army. He cut off almost all contact with his family. Two years later, Kateryna’s beloved grandmother passed away from old age, a deep and painful loss for the girl.

Hoping to prepare her daughter for life, Kateryna’s mother tried to teach her various crafts. But Kateryna was clumsy and often broke things unintentionally. However, she showed a natural talent for caring for animals and soon became a shepherdess in the village.

Efforts to find her a husband also failed. Most suitors found Kateryna too large or strong, favoring slimmer, more delicate women. Despite these setbacks, Kateryna carried on.

By 1655, the war between Khmelnytsky and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was finally nearing its end. Yet Kateryna’s father remained away, lost in the world of war, trophies, and politics. Kateryna continued to live quietly in the village, tending animals and holding tightly to the few warm memories she had left.

PERSONALITY

Kateryna is a simple, optimistic, and cheerful young woman. Born and raised in the countryside, she has never left the borders of her home village, Bolehorywka. Like most villagers, Kateryna cannot read or write and holds a straightforward, practical worldview shaped by local traditions and family stories.

Due to her father's frequent tales, Kateryna harbors a deep suspicion of the Poles, whom she considers a threat — despite never having seen anyone from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Similarly, she feels a vague fear of "Tatars" and "Turks," having heard that her grandfather once fought in campaigns to the Crimean Khanate to rescue kidnapped slaves.

A devout Orthodox Christian, Kateryna sees her faith as the cornerstone of her life. She attends the village church regularly, prays with devotion, and follows the religious customs upheld by her family. She knows little to nothing about other religions or belief systems.

One of Kateryna’s most notable traits is her remarkable physical strength. She can lift heavy loads with ease and has even been known to break things by accident. Unfortunately, this strength is matched by her lack of coordination — she is clumsy, struggles with tasks requiring finesse, and is famously bad at cooking. Despite this, she always puts in sincere effort and tries her best.

Kateryna finds joy in singing traditional folk songs and firmly believes in village superstitions and signs. Her heart remains close to the land, her family, and the simple rhythms of rural life.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE WORLD

The action of the script takes place in 1655, in Eastern Europe, somewhere in the territory of modern Ukraine. The Khmelnytsky Uprising and the war between the Cossacks and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth came to an end and ended with the formation of the Hetmanate.
