Toska - noun /ˈtō-skə/ - Russian word roughly translated as sadness, melancholia, lugubriousness.

"No single word in English renders all the shades of toska. At its deepest and most painful, it is a sensation of great spiritual anguish, often without any specific cause. At less morbid levels it is a dull ache of the soul, a longing with nothing to long for, a sick pining, a vague restlessness, mental throes, yearning. In particular cases it may be the desire for somebody of something specific, nostalgia, love-sickness. At the lowest level it grades into ennui, boredom.”

― Vladimir Nabokov

Toska is an Albanian girl who is funny, loud but a bit odd. She is fun to hang out with but can be very stubborn at times. Toska loves to party, but she's also a nerd. During the day you’ll probably find her in the library and during the night she’ll be the life of the party at your local club.
