I know who she is, I was asking if it’s her. I think others might find this info useful though.
@Cheyzet
So do I add a Ded Moroz tag or a Snegurochka tag?

I think they were asking who Snegurochka is.

Snow Maiden (1899) by Victor Vasnetsov
She has no apparent roots in traditional Slavic mythology and customs, having made her first appearance in Russian folklore in the 19th century.
Since the mid-20th century under the Soviet period, Snegurochka is known for being depicted as the granddaughter and companion of Ded Moroz during the New Year.
Reading further, it seems most of her stories end with her death by accidental melting.
