Age: 34
Gender:
District/Area: Wanderer
Appearance:
Originally hailing from District Eleven, Viktor is very large, very muscular, very tan, and very, very scary. About as wide as a small child is tall, with arms that are as wide around as a small child as well, he's easily almost seven feet tall.
His hair his short and dark, and he's usually clean-shaven, but he can be found with stubble on a bad day. His face is rough, a bit sun-damaged, and scarred. He lost his left eye in one riot or another and now wears an eyepatch over that eye.
He wears the clothing of District Eleven workers, and ends up looking a bit old-fashioned. He also wears a simple cap, and heavy work boots.
He has a thick Russian accent, since his family goes back to Russian roots, and he was taught Russian first.
Personality:
He's... violent. Very violent. But he does it for rather noble reasons, so it's cool. He often gets "threats" and "compromise" mixed up. He has a soft spot for dogs and small kids, but this is only really shown around his dog, Hadley, a Border Collie. To most, however, he's not a sympathetic or nice person.
If he can't do anything, he gets incredibly listless and depressed. He's been injured a few times, and every time it's difficult to just get him to eat. He just sits and mopes until he's well again.
He tends to base first impressions of people on their build. For example, he found Moa entirely unimpressive when he first met her, and he's STILL entirely unimpressed with Allen, to the point that he's still skeptical he's a Career. His sense of humor is a bit off, and it made even more difficult to understand because of his accent.
Despite his violent and rough personality, he's not callous, or even cruel necessarily. He does what he must at the time and that's that. He takes pride in his work, and if he starts something he finishes it as best as he can.
History:
Viktor grew up in District Eleven, loading and unloading massive amounts crops onto trucks, gaining his remarkable and intimidating physique. His teenage years were largely uneventful; being a loner and an only child, he lost no one particularly close to him in the Games.
He grew up, got married, had a daughter named Ivy. He became in charge of the loading dock he worked on as a child and things were going well. However, one day, the pay of the average dock worker went down exponentially, and he and his workers protested. The Peacekeepers came, fanning the anger until a peaceful demonstration became a full-fledged riot, Molotov cocktails and all. Viktor managed to get away from the fray, and went to get his family to safety. He was too late; the Peacekeepers had come and killed his family as punishment for speaking out against the Capitol.
Since then, Viktor has become a Wanderer, hermit, and wanted terrorist. He's been involved in many riots and uprisings, and he's also involved in the smuggling of alcohol and other items from the Capitol to the lower districts. He found Moa one day in the forest, and he tolerates (even likes) her because she's about the same age his Ivy would be if she'd lived.
