He's no stranger to vengeance as he's know as a very vengeaful person, who doesn't...can't stand being truly wronged. There's an innate urge to return any malice and ill done to him at least twice over. Towards outsiders of the circus, he's extremely cautious and careful. Considering most of them possible trouble or even danger for his fellow folk.
In his crafts he's passionate, enthusiastic and always performs with smile on his face. His favorite is to dance across the heated embers, be it just to practice or in front of a crowd.

Family History: Constantin was born in a family fleeing from the Ottoman empire from what once far in the past was known as the Bulgarian Kingdom. His family fled when his mother who was promised to his father was requested by a ottoman soldier. They were going to come for her on the next day. As such his father simply stole her away and they fled as far noth as they can.
He himself was conceived on the journey and was born around the time when his family reached Odessa. It was a hard life, but his family weren't without their skills and good traits. His mother was a beautiful fair woman who was used to hard work who knew the art of Anastenaria(fire-walking) and his father was a anastenar or fire-walker. Due the way Bulgarian society was during those times, his father before fleeing was a farmer, but he also knew how to ride horses since his family also owned horses. Eventually they managed to wander towards The Russian Imperial Circus. Mostly making an act of anastenaria consisting of dancing across still red embers.
Your personal life: Constantin grew up in the circus from very young. His first memories are of already being there with his family. He grew up as a member, being trained in number of skills that would be required from a performer, learning the art of fighting and the like. It was by no means an easy childhood. The training was harsh at times, strict beyond measure just to make sure he wouldn't kill or injure himself during the real performances.
Still his stubborn nature saw him through even the worst of times. He stuck with it and mastered his skills one by one until he was done with them. He got also his combat training against soulless. At first without much thought about it, then focusing on it with all his might, realizing the danger as he got older. There were dangers out there and he was going to be ready for them one way or another.
Constantin's time in the circus is always well spent so far. With the fact that there's always something to be done, he's been constantly keeping busy, trying to find a good way to help his fellow companions in this traveling community.
He never thought nor has plans to leave the circus anywhere in the near or not so far future. With the circus now at London for the season, the opportunity for profits and gains are many.
What you want for your life: Constantine doesn't have many goals currently. There's the usual of one day forming a family, but even more than that, he wishes to learn. Sadly with knowledge being so hard to gain this tasks appears so impossible at times. Besides those two, he just wants to continue to perform on the ember field.
Character Quote(s): “ If you really wish to know me, let us dance on the embers.”
“ Do you know why I love to learn? It's because you become better if you do so.”
“ You shouldn't have wronged me, now I will make sure I return the debt twice over.”
