Personality: Rodya is an overall cheerful person on the outside, but on the inside he’s calculating and always paying attention. He never says anything he doesn’t mean to say and always takes his time with his words. When doing this, Rodya can be silent for minuets at a time, just thinking of the best way to say something. When having a conversation with him, it’s ideal to have lots of patience because when rushed, Rodya will just take longer on purpose. He’ll even put this way of thinking into his writing.
Back to his outside portrayal, he’s usually never without his disarming and charming smile and he’s quick with a laugh. Those who really know him know the difference between his real smile and laugh versus his courtiers smile and laugh. When he’s really happy and smiling, he has a dimple in his left cheek, and his laugh is bright. With his courtiers smile, there are no dimples and his laugh is slightly lower, not as bright.
Rodya is pretty easy going, and will take an insult in stride, flashing a smile and laughing. Depending on how bad the insult is though, his eyes may darken with anger, but many people don’t think the darkening of his eyes is from anger, as he never portrays anger. If the insult is really bad, he’ll usually come up with some clever way to embarrass the person in front of everyone.
When he’s with the people he cares about, Rodya is completely different, not so quick with a laugh or smile, as his real ones are far and few between. Instead of thinking of the right thing to say to please the person in front of him, or get information out of them, he’ll usually tell the truth and tell them of his worries, knowing that sharing these things are enter than trying to deal with them alone.
Rodya has interesting humor, sometimes preferring a darker humor, or ever ‘dad’ humor, with stupid and cheesy jokes. He can find a funny side to almost anything, and enjoys seeing people laugh (Well, the people he thinks should be happy).
Likes:
-Writing; Rodya has always loved writing from a young age, and in general, telling stories.
-Debating; Rodya loves to have a good debate, whether he’s right or wrong, Rodya will have a good hearted debate with anyone, but once it turns into an argument, the young man will usually back out of it. He’ll also admit the loss of the debate if his point is proven wrong.
-Parties; Music and dancing are two of favorite things to do, below writing.
Dislikes:
-Arguments; A debate is fine, an argument is not. Arguments can lead to bad things. All it takes is pissing off the wrong person and you could be in a fight for your life. Rodya has no plans to end his life early.
-Repetitiveness; If people, stories or anything repeated itself more than 3 times, it will start to annoy Rodya to his last nerves, and he may just get up and walk away from whatever is doing the repeating.
-Bossiness; There is a difference in telling someone what to do when you need someone to do something and just telling someone to do something because you can and/or want to.
Hobbies:
-Writing; Despite his father’s wishes for Rodya to marry and English woman, Rodya has no plans to do so, preferring to spend most of his time writing.
-Debating; He enjoys this enough to make it a hobby, and sometimes he’ll deliberately go out looking for one.
-Soap Carving; Random, and he enjoys it. It also makes his hands small good.
Conditions-
Mental) N/A
Physical) He has a long scar on his left side from an accident as a boy. He fell out of a tree and a branch tore his side, he barely lived through the experience. He also broke his arm.
Background: Rodya is one of two children of his father and mother. His father a rich and well known Russian businessman. He grew up with a pretty easy life with few accidents in Russia.
His most notable accident was when he was six. He was attempting to climb a tree to impress his father. He reached a somewhat high branch, well, high for six year old him, about ten feet up. After he sat on his desired branch, it bowed beneath him. Not thinking anything of it, the young boy laughed, moving a little closer to the truck of the tree, not listening to his mother trying to get him down. After Rodya got settled agin, the branch stilled for a few moments, then broke, right under the little boy. Rodya had let out a shrill scream and gripped onto the part of the branch still attached to the tree. As the little boy fell, the jagged pieces of wood from the broken limb torn into his side, nearly piercing his ribs in the process. At the pain, Rodya’s grip on the tree slipped and he fell, landing on his arm and breaking it.
The wound almost brought Rodya to an early grave, but the young boy lived through it and has a jagged scar from his left hip up to the top of his ribs. This incident did not at all impress his father, and he got a strong tongue lashing from him after he was coherent enough to understand what his father was saying. He hasn’t climbed a tree since then.
From a very young age, Rodya can remember asking his nanny to tell him stories. Anything from wild tales about hero’s and dragons to plain old stories about her life and experiences. Stores are one of his greatest loves in life, telling them, reading them and herding them. When he was ten, he asked his father to get a better literature tutor, someone who could push him in reading and writing. Teach him more complex things. His father had agreed, decided that if it was what the boy wanted why not give it to him?
When Rodya was 14, his mother got sick with pneumonia and died a few days later. The young man was struck with a deep saddens, and he missed the cheery sounds of her laughter filling the halls of his home. It was this time Rodya wrote his first book, one about a young boy who goes on an adventure to save his ailing mother.
Up until he was 15, Rodya was able to read and write almost freely, but still hid these works from hid father, knowing the man would be disappointed in his son and heir to his company. Once he turned fifteen, the family moved to America, and his father would start bring his son with him on business, introducing Rodya to the bacholettes. Rodya quickly learned that though the women were pretty, some even beautiful, he found none of them attractive. Instead, he noticed more of the young men his age, and preferred to spend his time with them. He quickly found out that he was attracted to the young men and kept this to himself, trying to force himself to pay more attention to the women his father introduced him to, thinking something was wrong with him.
He started going to high school as well, trying to mingle with society insetead of being homeschooled.
