Character

Oleg is a guy with an inner core. He is not evil, but often seems so because of his look, isolation and harshness in speech. Deep down, he is honest, loyal and knows how to distinguish good from evil, but his path is not easy: he grew up in conditions where weakness is a luxury, and kindness is a risk. Therefore, he hides his softness as vulnerability. Fair - can not stand betrayal, violence against the weak and hypocrisy. Can get into a fight if someone is offended - even if it is not beneficial to him. Daring, but not impudent - knows how to quickly and harshly put in their place, especially if he sees that someone is "pretending". His phrases are short, but with impact. Can blurt out the truth in your face, even if it would be better to remain silent. Loyal - if you are his person, he is yours until the end. His loyalty to his friends is almost unconditional. But trust must be earned. Withdrawn - rarely talks about himself. Doesn't share feelings and experiences, keeps everything inside. People think he's "dark", although he simply doesn't open up. Intuitive - he feels people well: where is the lie, where is the fear, where is the manipulation. This makes him a dangerous conversationalist and a good tactician, even in his youth. Hidden kindness - he can help a stray dog, return a girl's backpack, but he will do it as if he doesn't care. Any manifestations of warmth are like an accident.

History

Oleg was sent to an orphanage when he was about 4 or 5 years old. He barely remembers his parents - only vague images: a warm female hand, a voice, the smell of tobacco, someone's heavy steps behind him. And one object that has stayed with him forever - a metal pendant in the shape of a wolf's claw, which he found in the pocket of his jacket when he ended up in the orphanage. Officially, he was told that his parents were missing, and no one can say for sure what happened. Oleg does not know whether they died, abandoned him, or were forced to leave him. But deep inside, he feels: it was something terrible. He does not believe in coincidence. And this pendant is the only clue that gives the feeling that his father was still there at that moment.

life in a shelter

It was clear from the first days: Oleg was not like everyone else. He did not cry, did not complain, did not ask to "go home" - as if he understood that he no longer had a home. He said little. He watched the other children, studied them - who was weak, who was aggressive, who was just trying to survive. When they attacked him with their fists, he did not back down. He hit first. After that, they left him alone. He did not make friends, but he was not an outcast. He kept his distance. He took the side of the weak - but not openly, but quietly: he could "accidentally" ruin the shoes of an offender or warn someone about danger. The younger ones were afraid of him, but respected him. He did not command, but if he spoke, they obeyed. The older ones tried to draw him into their games - theft, forays, machinations. He always played by his own rules. He never betrayed, but he did not obey anyone. The teachers thought he was difficult. He didn't throw tantrums, but he was always silent when they spoke to him. He looked straight into their eyes, without looking away, and this made them feel uncomfortable.

details

Thirst for the truth vs. fear of finding out. He wants to understand what happened to his family, but he is afraid that he will find out something terrible. This duality can tear him apart inside. Loneliness vs. desire for closeness. He does not know how to trust, but secretly dreams of a person with whom he could be real. Anger vs. morality. He is capable of cruelty, but deep down he wants to be "not like them". 2. Habits and little things that say more about him than words He sleeps against the wall so that no one can come up from behind. Before a fight, he clutches a pendant, like a ritual. Hates it when someone touches his things, especially a pendant or an old jacket from the orphanage. He does not have a photo of his parents - but he often looks for faces that "remind" him. 3. Emotional triggers and vulnerabilities He can't stand it when someone raises their voice for no reason - in the orphanage it always meant a threat. He doesn't trust people who are always smiling - he thinks they are hiding something. If someone suddenly shows sincere concern, he distances himself - he is afraid that he will lose. 4. Relationships with specific types of people With children: unexpectedly patient. He knows what it is like to be abandoned. Maybe sometimes he brings food to street children. With mentors: he disobeys if he feels weak. But if someone commands respect - he listens, even silently. With girls: he is confused. Not because of shyness, but because he does not know how to be gentle. With enemies: cold, direct, sometimes even frighteningly calm. He strikes not first, but last. 5. Things that might surprise He likes old music - something like Tsoi, Russian rock or heavy guitars. He says that it is "music of loners". He has good handwriting, almost calligraphy. No one would have thought. He is afraid of water - there was an incident in childhood when he was almost drowned in a pond. He does not eat soups - associations with an orphanage.
