Full Name: Major Ivan Raidenovitch Raikov Fandom: POTO, original, other (specify)? Metal Gear Solid 3 Age: Twentysomething. Height: 5'10'' Build: Athletic. Ish. Hair: Ash-blond. Eyes: Blue-green. Nationality: Soviet Russian Personality: Chatty, petty, maniacally playful, slightly effeminate, and always hungry. Ivan is rather prone to mood swings and fits of temper; when he's up, he's very up, and when he's in an off mood, God help us all. But he is genuinely a little dim and is having a difficult time adjusting to life on his own. He's very out of his element now and still seems half-convinced it is all a very, very bad dream. Life Story (as much as you want us to know): Ivan was a dutiful asset to the Party, first as a young gymnast and later as a soldier. He had dreams of pursuing a career as an artist before his life took a distinctly different turn. But he took to soldiering with rather more zeal than he'd ever had for his athletics-- the food was better, generally-- and made well for himself attaching himself to the biggest and scariest person in Groznyj Grad. His rather violent sense of humor didn't make him many friends among his fellow soldiers, and after his lover, Colonel Volgin, fell from favor, Raikov soon followed. (Except Yevgeny ended up very dead.) Exiled, he now mostly occupies himself painting pretty pictures and drowning his sorrows.

"There might be a place for you in Hotel Moscow. ...If you're good."
((Yep, had to.))

"You don't survive long in the Terrible City by being bad at what you do."
(( He would like her a little too much, I think. I wanna read Black Lagoon now like nobody's business. ))

"Fair enough point. I assume you're not all talk." ((Which, considering that she's somewhat disinterested (though not entirely) could get interesting. ...And it rocks.))

"Anything to keep busy."
(( Raikov seems to have a history of bounding after the scariest people possible in any operation looking for their approval. And for someone who's like the best parts of Zhenya and the Joy, he'd be intrigued.
It sounds just plain awesome. ))

"Well," *chuckles* "let's find out, then." ((So it seems. A wonder he's still alive, really...and, yeah, Balalaika is definitely one of the most dangerous women in anime, and they have a common history. So, yeah. It's going to be epic. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Where should we start, then?))

(( Well, not for lack of trying on the parts of certain American spies, but he manages. Cool.
I've got an image of him out on a sulking binge and failing languages other than Russian forever. Where's your lady likely to be? ))

((Heh, it's not much easier in Roanapur. Sounds like him...and quite a bit of the MGS cast, actually. When they're not being awesome. You might find Miss Mafiya Queen in the bar of an actual hotel.))

(( Lots of drinking to be done and lots of sulking, but of course. Raikov refuses to be left out of the big broodfest. And meditating on war. Though he knows for absolute certain that love can bloom on the battlefield.
Can do! ))
