Name: Vlad Nikolayevhich Zolnerwich
Alias: N/A
Age: 16
Grade: Sophomore
Height: 6' 4”
Weight: 213 lbs.
Eye Color: Red
Hair Color: Blond
Appearance: Vlad's entire manifestation emits power, all the way from his stoic demeanor, to the seriousness and intense nature from his crimson stare, to the odd haircut of blond hair that is gelled in a straightened back style, and finally the black desginer suit, white dress shirt, red tie, with coordinating black leather shoes. These external presentations all play a hand into his overall intimidating impression. On another note Vlad's entire wardrobe is not designer suits, but they do heavily make up a large total of his catalog.
Worthy of taking note is the male's large frame of 6' 4", but his exceptional physiology is not limited to only his height, his musculature integrity is notable both for it's definition and symmetry. However this chiseled physique is not a bargain and is actually due to a combination of olympian genetics, intense ironhanded conditoning and training over the years. His strong body was not only earned, but built through a dedication few people would understand.
Personality: Stoic, it's the first word that comes to mind upon majority of peoples first initial meeting with Vlad. He is business like in his approach to most things in life, and retains a seriousness about him that suffocates what little humor he has left. Much like his father, Vlad seeks to always be successful no matter if it is in a classroom or out of it, success in his mind works like compound interest, the more it builds the more of it you get. He strongly feels that success is one of the many cornerstones to a good life and the key ingredient for a good life.
On the other hand in life you are bound to fail and Vlad does not take kindly to failures. He is a young man that is very critical of his self just as much as he is to others and of others. But you see this is what makes Vlad so damn badass! Because he expects failure and realizes one can not be too high off the highs of life and be too low when the lows of life come reaping. He fully understands one must be constant and consistent in their resolve and their purpose in order to achieve period.
There are many angles to Vlad like how most find him inapproachable, but he doesn't shun conversations. He also is irritated by people who are not straightforward, perhaps this is a emotional scar left by his family's betrayal by his own brother. Also Vlad is not very open to new things, lives orderly and organized, and is more traditional in his way of life. Not to say he is closed minded, but he definitely is not a free spirit nor is he a fan of impulse. It's the reason why love scares him and he can tend to get shy around women, yet when the time comes he will receive love with a open embrace and intends to cherish it in the same way his parents did. In battle the American-Russian is extremely violent to the point he seems to become unrecognizable in contrast to his usual stoic persona. Mercy is reserved for no one and he gains the bloodlust of a frenzied shark, to put it simply, Vlad is a blood knight who when in a good fight gets emersed in the pleasure of battle.
Although Vlad carries himself like a professional and is one of, if not thee most serious natured people you will ever meet. Don't doubt that he is every bit as human as everyone else, you know Russians have feelings too.
Fighting Style: Due to his father's influence Vlad is trained in two forms of combat. First is Arnis, a martial art native of the Philippines that emphasizes weapon-based fighting with sticks, knives, bladed weapons and various improvised weapons. Arnis also includes hand-to-hand combat, joint locks, grappling and weapon disarming techniques.
Second is Pencak silat, a martital art native of Indonesia. Pencak silat is a full-body fighting form incorporating strikes, grappling and throwing in addition to weaponry. Every part of the body is used and subject to attack. Pencak silat was practiced not only for physical defense but also for psychological ends.
Between these two martial arts, Vlad finds himself confident against armed and unarmed opponents alike. He hits hard, he hits fast and is very efficient in his attacks. Technically sound, Vlad incorporates healthy proportions of offensive and defensive techniques to keep opponents off balance and odds in his favor.
Strengths: Physically and mentally tough, intelligent, reactive, and calm and collected.
Weaknesses: Finds unpredictability tough to deal with, very stand-offish, and tends to be passive when it comes to confrontation.
History: Vlad is son of Nikolai V. Zolnerwich, an ex-KGB special ops soldier who after the group was disbanded became a unaffilated mercenary for a couple of years. After his stint as a freelance gun for hire he ultimately converted into a professional bodyguard/hitman for the Russian mob. Nikolai along the way had married an American women named Hillary, who was a ex-american soldier of the U.S. army, a fellow gun enthusiast and eventually she would become the mother of two boys. The two lovers originally had met at a gun show in Florida, with Nikolai first checking out her "weaponry", as they say the rest is history. Now forming a family in such a environment was tough and Vlad and his elder brother Anton lived far from what you would consider a normal lifestyle. The two boys at a young age were introduced and trained on how to properly handle firearms and were taught martial arts, specifically Silat and FMA. Vlad adored his father and mother despite the tough love that both of them dished out, in fact he thrived in this social environment more so than Anton. Eventually he was made well aware of their situation, and of their father's occupation. In light of this, Vlad never once wished he'd had normal parents and a normal lifestyle.
For Vlad he can see in hindsight how "abnormal" his childhood may have been, but the young man that he is today is thankful. All the tough love his father and mother had given him, steeled him into a being that's beyond his years on a physical and mental level. The fact that Anton betrayed his own father and mother left a permanent reminder that even family can be as treacherous as the enemy, especially when money, power, and respect are involved.
Currently Vlad is a survivor and lives on his own in a average New York apartment with a fat lazy landlord who doesn't mind renting out to a sixyeen year old as long as the money is right. Driven by purpose, he seeks knowledge, he seeks money, he seeks power, and he seeks revenge. As a freshman of PHS #552 Vlad had laid low rigorously training his mind and body, now as a sophomore he intends to take the next step, but first he has to find a gang to call home and a leader who will teach him how to lead.
