———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— Name: Pavlov Akilov.
« The Operator »
Age: Thirty-five.
Sex: Male.
Gender: Male.
Notoriety: Appearance: Pavlov stands at, give or take, 6'1". This puts him in the average among the Eurocorp and Korporat-managed lands. His frame is what you'd expect of an operator, being built with a strong frame, but not too bulky. He's built for strength, yes, but also endurance. Because of this, his build is limited to strong definitions on his muscles, but little more.
His face is unremarkable - he has brown eyes, a pointed nose similar to that of other Europeans, and lacks any noteworthy definition. His jawline is covered in hair, forming a thick beard which is well kept. The only noteworthy thing about his face is evidently the three scars that run below his eye, and the one single scar that runs above his eye. There is a myriad of other scars, of course, but they are hidden under his beard.
As for dress, Pavlov typically wears the standard for operators - a shirt or sweater, a baseball cap of sorts, and if the sun allows, shades. With his pants then neatly tucked into his combat boots, there is little else for him to desire. On the side of his head are his ear-and-eye augmentation/implants. They are one sided, on his right side, and cover most of that side of his face.
Furthermore, on his left hand, there are several augmentations too. One of his fingers got shot off, and has been replaced with a robotic augmentation. Then on the back of his hand, there is a metallic plate that functions mostly as a chipcard, where he can store multiple card functions - credit chips, contact cards, and other useless things that turn out to be useful in day to day life as a civilian.
Personality: It takes a certain type of person to be a successful bounty hunter. Whether you're on the far end of the spectrum or on the other end - whether you obey the law and kill criminals, or whether you'll take any bounty regardless of who it is.. there are certain qualities that all bounty hunters come to appreciate and make a part of themselves. Pavlov is just like that - just like the others.
Where he differs is his lack of interest in those around him. He is an operator, after all, and operators tend to only be in it for the money. He picked up that mindset in the Korporat side of the globe, and took it with him when he moved to greener pastures after an untimely departure. Whether you're his friend or his enemy, he doesn't really seem to care. This has a good side - everything is all business with him - and a bad side - he can be hard to get along with. Never the less, he cares just enough for him not to leave you bleeding in the street if you happen to be on his team. Consider that his saving grace from being a total bastard.
Pavlov seems to have little regard for 'doing the right thing' and more for 'doing the thing that is right for me.' Although you could say his moral compass points to himself, he'd simply ask whether or not that was true for most people. Those who want to do good typically end up dead. There are steps to the system - even the best bounty hunter must be able to accept a bribe. Those who can't accept a bribe when needed will end up being made another offer.
Pavlov intends never to get such an offer.
Brave – Indifferent – Dedicated to the job – Uncaring about the morality of the job
Bio: Pavlov was born in the former Russian territories in the mega-city Moscow. His father was a corporate security officer, his mother was a stay-at-home wife. Life was easy, and never ceased to be easy until his father had had enough. From age four to twelve, Pavlov was educated at a primary school, after which he was sent to a highschool that specialized in technology and the sciences. It was, besides security, one of the best fields to work in, and his father knew that.
It was a pity that Pavlov's interests and capabilities never aligned with those his father set out for him, as Pavlov did not do well in school. He stumbled through highschool, barely completing the tasks set for him, being held back a year in the first year already. A poor start for young Pavlov.
The disapproval of his father was not as much a push factor for him to do better as his father imagined, either. Instead, Pavlov merely grew more rebellious. After graduating, scoring perhaps the lowest out of all students that passed, his father urged him to go to a University of Cybernetics and Robotics to learn how to work with these new technologies. Pavlov refused.
The decision had been made, and his father kicked him out. He was 18 after all, and there was no reason to keep such a rebellious boy around. He could work for himself if he didn't want to listen. Except rather than pity himself and cry, banging on the door, Pavlov merely grabbed his bags and left. He applied to the Korporation 18 Operator teams, working security for some of the more dangerous facilities that were at a larger risk compared to the other sites. Surprisingly, they accepted him, and drilled him into shape quickly.
His first posting was a factory for augmentation chips in the far east, close to the Sakhalin island where oil was being won. The factory was a risk factor to Korporat 18 due to the purifist elements that were present in that area that wanted to stop augmentations from becoming a thing, who believed it was an act against the will of god to augment our bodies.
It was, overall, a quiet post. During his two year stay near Sakhalin, he only saw combat twice, during which his finger got blown off by a stray round. This was his first augmentation, albeit a minor one, as they attached a robotic finger to replace it. A second augmentation soon followed, as he got ear-and-eye augmentations that allowed him to project interfaces into his eye, as well as to allow radio chatter to go straight to his ear and brain, removing the need for extensive external equipment. The third was a simple digital chip/card storage in his hand that was multifunctional.
After his tour here was up he was moved back to the West, running corporate security ops in Moscow itself. This was where he'd spend the rest of his time in the Korporat 18 operator teams. It was here that the operator teams lost their 'military' feel and became more like 'muscle gangs' that were used to wrestle control of businesses, locations and items from small time businesses that weren't even close to rivaling Korporat 18. At least, that was the intention. It seemed more like they were fixing the personal issues of the Korporat 18 leadership.
An assassination here and there, some intimidation, dealing with rowdy family members... it was a full package. But, considerably, a more luxurious post to maintain than to be out in the east fighting purifist, anti-augmentation militant groups.
From shady backstreet dealings, to clearing out small-time mobsters, to killing people. Yes, the luxurious post. They operated with impunity, as nobody could or would stop them. They were Korporat 18 after all.
All good things, however, must come to an end. Pavov got a bit too deep into one corporate leaders private dealings, and was marked by a rival leader as a team leader that had been messing with his family under orders of the other leader. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it was impossible for him to kill the other leader, but it was more than possible to get rid of Pavlov, one way or the other. So he made Pavlov an offer - leave Korporat 18 owned lands with a honorable discharge and a clearance to take KORPO equipment with him, to start for himself abroad, or get 'erased.'
The offer was clear, and Pavlov was on the next train to the West, finding himself in Europa, managed by Eurocorp. What had once been seen as a rival to his employer was now his new home. Fittingly, perhaps. Now he was meant to start over. But there was little someone with his skillset could do - little except becoming a bounty hunter. District: Weapon(s): Krachev “K-80” PDW
