Nadia, was the name of a character that appeared in the Lost Girl television series who was at one time Lauren's girlfriend. She was human and was unaware of the Fae world. The role was played by the actress Athena Karkanis. She first appeared in the second season episode It's Better to Burn Out Than Fae Away. She did not actually appear in this episode, but was seen to be held in a statis pod in The Ash's compound. Her first on screen appearance came in the episode Masks when Bo's actions broke the curse Nadia was under and she awoke.

Her final appearance in the series was in the nineteenth episode of the second season, Truth and Consequences. Bo was forced to kill Nadia when she was under the control of The Garuda and was threatening Lauren's life. The death of Nadia marked the end of her appearances in the series, but the after effects of this event still haunt Bo and Lauren. There is no evidence that she will appear in the third or future seasons in flashbacks or other forms.

Information revealed in the series

• She was in a coma for five years, most of that time spent in some kind of stasis pod or life support chamber.
• The curse was enacted by the original Ash in order to obtain Lauren's help in saving Fae from a disease.
• The Shaman that set the curse was located in a small village in the Congo, was Dark Fae, and set curses on people when he was paid to do so.

• Lauren and Nadia leave for a time, what happened on their trip isn't explained fully except to say that they were at a hotel and a lake.
• It is likely that The Garuda may have possessed Nadia when she was in her coma.
• Nadia was possessed by The Garuda for some time which may explain her odd mannerisms in all of the episodes she appeared in.
• Bo was forced to kill Nadia in order to save Lauren, who Nadia was attacking in Bo's presence.
• The death of Nadia caused Bo and Lauren's relationship to become strained and almost come apart at the end of the second season.
