XENIA ONATOPP

'Xenia Sergeyevna Onatopp' (Russian: Ксения Сергеевна Онатопп) is a fictional character in the James Bond film ''GoldenEye'', played by actress Famke Janssen. She was voted the 6th most memorable Bond Girl by Entertainment Weekly.[1] Famke's character caused the cancellation of the Goldeneye miniseries of comics, due to the sexually provocative cover to Issue #2, which featured her straddling Bond with a gun to her face. The opening pages also depicted her orgasmic killing at Severnaya.

Biography

Xenia, born in the republic of Georgia, was a fighter pilot in the Soviet Air Force. After the USSR's collapse, she joined the Janus crime syndicate, led by renegade MI6 agent Alec Trevelyan. Early in the story she and James Bond get into an aggressively amicable car race on a Monaco roadway; later re-encountering each other at the casino, and then spying on her under.
She derives sexual satisfaction through killing. In a memorable scene, she lures Canadian admiral Chuck Farrell (Billy J. Mitchell) to a yacht moored in Monte Carlo harbour. While making ferocious love with him and dressed in lingerie, she suddenly turns him over atop her and wraps her strong legs around him, crushes his diaphragm with her thighs, achieving orgasm.

During their copulation, a henchman steals the admiral's identity card, enabling her and the unidentified Janus operative to steal a Eurocopter Tiger attack helicopter slated for a high-profile test flight the following day.
Her sadistic sexuality, coupled with her lack of conscience, would qualify her as a sociopath.
Later, she and turncoat Russian General Arkady Ourumov use the hijacked Tiger in an attack on the Severnaya satellite control center in central Siberia, where they steal the controller for the GoldenEye electromagnetic pulse (EMP) satellite weapon. During the attack, she fires an AKSU-74 carbine around the control room, murdering all the military personnel and technicians present, again getting sexually aroused in the process.
She encounters Bond three more times during the film, attempting to crush him between her thighs on two occasions. This is a wrestling hold called 'bodyscissors', though Xenia certainly uses it in a more sexual manner than any wrestler would. The first time, she comes on to him in a turkish bath in a Russian hotel, and after being flung to the floor by Bond, tells him that.

After knocking her out when she leads him to the Statue Graveyard, Bond next encounters Onatopp on Trevelyan's train. Prior to the encounter, she displays sexual excitement at Bond's imminent derailing of the train.
The third and final time is after he and Natalya Simonova, the only innocent survivor of the Severnaya attack, enter Cuba to stop Trevelyan. After their plane is shot down by a missile, Onatopp rappels from a helicopter onto Bond, who is just awakening following the crash, and quickly gains the upper hand in their battle. She gets Bond between her muscular legs and tells him ''"This time, Mr. Bond, the pleasure will be all mine."'' Just as Bond is ready to pass out from the pressure, Natalya intervenes. Onatopp blocks her attempt, headbutts her, and tells her to wait her turn if she had wanted to get rough love (which could imply that Xenia was actually a bisexual). Bond then connects the rope she rappelled down to her safety harness, grabs her AK-74 rifle that was slung across her back and kills the helicopter's pilot by shooting into the helicopter's cockpit from the ground. The chopper veers away, pulling Onatopp off Bond and trapping her in a fork of a tree, with her chest being crushed by her safety harness.

She is the second woman ever killed by Bond, the first being Naomi, Karl Stromberg's helicopter pilot, in ''The Spy Who Loved Me'' and later on Elektra King in ''The World Is Not Enough''.

Other appearances

Onatopp has appeared in a number of James Bond video games as a playable multiplayer character. Her first appearance was in the 1997 video game adaptation of ''GoldenEye'', ''GoldenEye 007'' for the Nintendo 64. She is with Trevelyan on the train stage of the game. She later reappears in the jungle stage. Similar to the film, she is killed in the jungles of Cuba after battling with Bond, although Bond is unable to make her die by way of the tree trunks.
In the James Bond game Nightfire, Xenia also appears as a multiplayer character. She can be unlocked by a cheat on the cheats menu and the code is JANUS, the organisation she worked for in the movie.
She later appeared in the spinoff Bond game, '' where she worked for Dr. Julius No and was GoldenEye's alluring opponent, and appears to be commander of an army of Dr. No's that has taken over Hoover Dam. She is killed in ''Rogue Agent'' after being blown off the Hoover Dam when attempting to crush GoldenEye between her legs. In the game she was voiced by actress Jenya Lano. However, in the Nintendo DS version of '', the OMEN kills her because there is no Hoover Dam level.
