|In-Character Information|

Name: Schelkarov Gernetsky
Age: 23
Family Members: Olav Gernetsky, Parents Deceased
Backstory: Born in a crime ridden small town around 100 miles away from the Zone, he had a very, very difficult childhood. He used his quick wits and sharp mind to keep himself and his brother safe from the different gangs and random hoodlums. It was very tough going, and he and his brother had to go without food for long periods at a time. During times like these, though, he still remained rather selfless, giving the lion's share of any meals they grabbed to his brother. After he hit his twenties, he realized that he could no longer take being in the cesspool he called home. He longed for adventure, for a chance to really make something of himself. Above all, he wanted to be able to get himself and his brother into a better life. He asked his brother if he thought he could fend for himself, and after receiving an affirmative, packed what few belongings he had and left for the Zone.
     As he left, he managed to steal a Makarov from a local gang member, and stuffed as much ammunition as he could into his pockets before darting off in the general direction of the Zone. It was hard going at first, and it only got worse as he progressed. However, he never gave up hope that he would find his riches in the Zone, feeling that if he made it there he would finally be able to not just survive, but excel. He reached the borders of the Zone after a week or two of traveling, hitching rides passing near it on the way. He had heard tales of the Cordon, which the military patrolled heavily, but he felt he could get past it. He grabbed a hunting knife he had found in the back of one of the many trucks he stowed away in, and approached the barbed wire, hiding in some thick shrubbery nearby.
     He watched the different movements the military made, and after a day of observing, he had a good idea of the patrols. He cut the wire as the shifting of the guard occurred, scrambling into what he hoped would be a better life.

He was dead wrong.

|Faction Related Information|

What is Freedom's ideology?: That the Zone should be freed up, allowing different scavengers and scientists to study the different occurrences there in order to benefit society as a whole.
Why do you wish to join Freedom?: To be able to stand a better chance at surviving, so he can return to his brother with many riches, and have a better life.
Why should Freedom pick you?: He is known for his quick thinking, and can be very helpful in diplomatic situations. He can generally defuse hostile situations, and keeps a cool enough head during battle to not be a hindrance. However, his shooting skills are decidedly unremarkable.
How well do you know Freedomers?: During a bloodsucker attack, Shelk dove into the Freedom base because he had nowhere else to go. While he was inside, he talked to a lot of different Freedomers, earning the friendship of at least one. However, the ties are still tenuous at this point.
Who is the Freedom Leader?: Ryan Jones, as Seth told me.

|In-Character Information|

Name: Jak Zackoric
Age: 26
Family Members: None alive.
Backstory: Born in South Yorkshire, England, Jak grew up in an area of high drug use and violance, but was not underprivilaged. He rarely worked hard in his youth, relying on natural talent whilst he slacked. He studied biology, psychology and physics untill university, where he studied Physics with Nanotechnology. He passed, but left university with a degree and no idea what to do. He signed up for the police service, hating the laws about drugs, but wishing to protect people. He often turned a blind eye to drug related crime, focusing on what he saw as the actual problems. This got him noticed quickly, his whole life dedicated to his work, after years of service he applied to the armed response unit, where he served for two years, his inner physicist leading him on to research his work more, studying the way armour works, and to a lesser extent firearms.

However, his life became stale. He found that more and more he was dealing with drugdealers, armed with guns, but never dealing with the actual people supplying the weaponry. He started to look for a new life for himself, something that would spark his interest again. He began to hear rumours over the internet of an area where physics has become mutated, antigravity around every corner and strange artifacts that had amazing properties. The rumours sparked his life into vigor again, pleasing to his rifleman side, his physicist side, his biologist side and his psychologist side. After a while, he couldn't resist the prospect anymore, flying out on a whim. After days of backpacking and hitchhiking only knowing a general direction to move in, he eventually found the border, and under darkness followed some others along the border, finally making his way to the Zone.

Time passed as he trekked further into the Zone. By avoiding the main roads and staying quiet, he avoided most conflict, simply observing and making notes of the wonders of the zone. However, as he worked his way up further and further, he became in more danger, zombies and mutants eventally getting the better of him. He was shot in the arm and his body broken by mutants, he wandered for days untill he found the safety and medical assistance of Freedom.

Specializations (if any): Unconventional armour/firearm repairs & upgrades, sharpshooting as a hobby, first aid.

|Faction Related Information|

What is Freedom's ideology?: The Zone should be accessable to all, it is the grounds for the advancement of humanity through the odd conditions and artifacts. Duty must be stopped in its campaign to destroy/suppress the Zone.

Why should Freedom pick you?: As far as I know, noone in the camp can repair or upgrade equipment, I remember Seth saying that noone could even sew.
How well do you know Freedomers?: I've hand a handful of parties with them, I've fixed and upgraded some of their gear and I always join them on treks. I would count most of the members as friends.

We lived for 'happy' for a while in till my eldest brother decided to head out to the zone to find answers to questions he always has had. Months later he was reported dead. My next two brothers headed out to the zone to find him, they left me behind telling me I wasn't ready to fight. Years went by without a trace of either, in till one day a man came to our door telling us that they were also dead. I got mad thinking about what had happened to my brothers so I headed out to the zone to find them, my mother and father are probably worried sick about me.
In the zone so far, I have figured out that my other two brothers were dead. My eldest may also as well be dead. The first two had died differently, My first brother, age 26 died robbing people in a bandit clan he had created with a girl named Varia, who is also dead, and Lenoyl who is still alive somewhere.

Name: Tolik Brome
Age: 22
Family Members: abonded
Backstory: Tolik has lived in Moscow . He lived at an orphanage that was run by people that thought that the ways for these kids to live was through cruelty and sadism. After some years of pain and a tiresome life his anger grew into one day he couldn't take it anymore.
He decided to simply abandon the orphanage. He snuck into the trunk of a car and waited for it to drive through the gates. Once he was outside, he set out into the streets of Moscow.

There wasn't much here for him...beggars, muggers and other personalities he learned to avoid. At the age of 22 he was at the top of his depression that had grown through the years since he hit the streets. One day a man approached him when he was lying in an alley, ready to take his own life with a broken bottle. His face was masked, and he wearing a long coat.
He said he was looking for people like him...people with nothing binding them to the life in a city. Tolik had given up on life, so why not go with this strange man that he felt had given him a new opportunity in life.
They had almost gone out of the alley, when he felt a sharp sting in his neck...then he blacked out.

When he woke up, he was in what seemed like once a building, lying on a mattress.
He was wearing thick jacket, heavy pants and gloves. Somebody had dressed him up like if he was to go into tundra. He went out the door, and the sight that met him was something he had never seen before...dead trees and landscape surrounding him mile after mile in the distance. Once he looked around, he saw other persons...some of them sitting around a campfire talking and another man standing by the door. The man greeted him: "Welcome to the zone"

Backstory:
             I came from a somewhat dis-functional family back in the USA but my family moved to their place of origin, the Ukraine, when i was 12 years old. After years of schooling i came out at the top of my class,but hated learning. I went straight to Labor intensive work for about 16 years and by then, i was tired of the same thing every day. During that time I took a job at a bomb squad where they taught us how to defuse the average bomb, although I only got 1 actual experience, a pipe bomb, and that was it. A few years after i took up work at a Gun shop Where i was an instructor for all types of weapons.
             After the years of labor and other jobs, i decided i was fit for the Ukranian Military and signed up. Although, after about 4 weeks, a month, of being in it, we captured a freedomer and his girlfriend, this allowed me to realize that the Army was much more savage than any other factions, killing STALKERs without hesitation. I quickly left for the overpass where i changed into STALKER clothing and went to the Freedom base to help Goose escape from the Military, they were trying to trade cash and a ecologist, but the military soon resorted to attacking. During that time Goose made a run for it. After the fighting died down and the helicopter had retreated, Goose was at the gates, meeting up with his old Freedom buddies, and me.

Name: Schelkarov Gernetsky
Age: 23
Family Members: Olav Gernetsky, Parents Deceased
Backstory: Born in a crime ridden small town around 100 miles away from the Zone, he had a very, very difficult childhood. He used his quick wits and sharp mind to keep himself and his brother safe from the different gangs and random hoodlums. It was very tough going, and he and his brother had to go without food for long periods at a time. During times like these, though, he still remained rather selfless, giving the lion's share of any meals they grabbed to his brother. After he hit his twenties, he realized that he could no longer take being in the cesspool he called home. He longed for adventure, for a chance to really make something of himself. Above all, he wanted to be able to get himself and his brother into a better life. He asked his brother if he thought he could fend for himself, and after receiving an affirmative, packed what few belongings he had and left for the Zone.
     As he left, he managed to steal a Makarov from a local gang member, and stuffed as much ammunition as he could into his pockets before darting off in the general direction of the Zone. It was hard going at first, and it only got worse as he progressed. However, he never gave up hope that he would find his riches in the Zone, feeling that if he made it there he would finally be able to not just survive, but excel. He reached the borders of the Zone after a week or two of traveling, hitching rides passing near it on the way. He had heard tales of the Cordon, which the military patrolled heavily, but he felt he could get past it. He grabbed a hunting knife he had found in the back of one of the many trucks he stowed away in, and approached the barbed wire, hiding in some thick shrubbery nearby.
     He watched the different movements the military made, and after a day of observing, he had a good idea of the patrols. He cut the wire as the shifting of the guard occurred, scrambling into what he hoped would be a better life.

He was dead wrong.

|Faction Related Information|

What is Freedom's ideology?: That the Zone should be freed up, allowing different scavengers and scientists to study the different occurrences there in order to benefit society as a whole.
Why do you wish to join Freedom?: To be able to stand a better chance at surviving, so he can return to his brother with many riches, and have a better life.
Why should Freedom pick you?: He is known for his quick thinking, and can be very helpful in diplomatic situations. He can generally defuse hostile situations, and keeps a cool enough head during battle to not be a hindrance. However, his shooting skills are decidedly unremarkable.
How well do you know Freedomers?: During a bloodsucker attack, Shelk dove into the Freedom base because he had nowhere else to go. While he was inside, he talked to a lot of different Freedomers, earning the friendship of at least one. However, the ties are still tenuous at this point.

He was about to pass the border on foot when he walked straight into a Polish Soldiers. He got taken to a nearby border office and had to explain why he was trying to pass the border on foot. He explained he was searching for work in Ukraine and herd about some sort place.

The Polish soldiers believed his story but still had their doubt, they decided to release him and putted him on a bus to Ukraine. After another 2 days of traveling he finally arrived. In the nearby village he herd all kinds of stories about a place called the "Zone". He hang out for about a month in the village and started to learn the language, he wasn't used to the farm live so the first weeks were hard for him as he tried to find a proper sleeping place.

After a while he found a farmer who was willing to let him sleep in his barn, David who was really happy with these started to find the man who talked about the "Zone" he found the man shortly as he was telling stories about it in the local pub. David talked to the man and figured out the "Zone" was filled with so called "Artifacts". The man told him he was leaving with some other people called S.T.A.L.K.E.R.S to the zone in a few days, David could go with them for a small fair ofcourse.
David paid him with what he had left and went off with the others into the so called Zone, they traveled on a small truck until they stopped in the middle of a wasteland. David looked up and saw a huge fence and some sort of outpost. A guy in the truck told him that was a military outpost, they want to prevent us from entering it. He laughed as he saw David'sconfused face. He pointed his finger to the fence just around 360 meter to the right of the outpost. There is a small hole in the fence there we will go into the Zone.


They all jumped out of the truck and quietly walked to the fence. As I was ordered to go true first I quickly crouched true it, as the others came one by one we suddenly heard a loud scream and we saw a military vehicle approaching, it started to fire on us. Some of the guys yelled and we started to ran. David had no idea where he was running to but he quickly lost everyone. He ended up a in a wasteland full of dangers and new things to discover. He was scared but he knew this was his thing.

Name: Huji Makima
Age: 27
Family Members: None
Backstory: A half Asian, half British middle class guy. He grew up in the slums of Britain being looked down upon by mostly everyone. He has no family of what he knew and was abandoned at birth. He was kept by a family who were wanting a child but they couldn't have one. So Huji was a good answer. He lived with them up to the age of 16 where he left school and his home. He ventured by himself for a long time, picking up numerous skills along the way. He only had enough money each day to feed him and spent most of his time stealing and begging.

After many years of this, he felt disgusted of how he could leave his foster parents behind with all the love and luxury they have given him, also the people he stole off would of been traumatised that they had been robbed. In doing this he wanted to give what he took back to the people and show that he is actually worth something and there is a meaning for him to live.

Huji is now 27 years old and still looking to give back what he had taken. He had been living in The Zone for 4 years, knowing his way around. All that time he had his eye on a certain Faction called "Freedom" just by the name he knew this is what he wanted but he had been plucking up the courage to apply. He started working out and getting fit, to the point today where he is ready to apply for Freedom and make a difference to The Zone.

|In-Character Information|

Name: Sergei Petrinov
Age: 29
Family Members: Alexander Petrinov (Only one whom is still living)
Backstory: Sergei was born in a small town not far away from the Zone. His father was a trader whom was very sucsessful, and so Sergei was teached in his ways. At age 16, Sergei was already selling goods to people, and he was making lots  of money off of it. He was working as his fathers assistant then, because people under the age of 18 were not allowed to trade yet. When he learned of the Zone at age 28, he decided to move out there and help the people in need by selling them goods and weapons. It took him 4 years to finally reach the Out-Skirts of Chernobyl, but he never gave up until he did.
His bus pulled up to the stop on December 26th, screeching to a stop inches away from the checkpoint. "This is as far as we go," said the Driver. Sergei nodded, standing up out of his seat and pulling down his gas-mask, and walking down the steps of the bus. "Good luck out there," said the Driver, then closing the doors. Sergei watched it drive off, and sighed "No turning back now.". He pulled out his compus, and began to walk North towards the second checkpoint.
A fog rolled throughout the Zone, blinding Sergei from seeing more than 30 feet ahead. The loud cry of a mutant could be heard in the distance, defeaning to the ear. Sergei cocked back his shotgun, moving forward into the fog with caution. The cry grew closer. Scared, Sergei began to look around himself, checking all directions for the sight of this crying beast. Suddenly, gun-shots rang out in the distance, the crying ceasing. Sandbags appeared as the fog dispersed, followed by the yell of a man "Stop right there STALKER!". Sighing with relief, Sergei had realised he reached the second checkpoint.
The man moved closer, examining Sergei. "Are you the Trader?" he said. Sergei nodded. "Alrighty then, we are your guides. Follow me, we're taking you to the locals." the Man said. Sergei nodded again, and began to follow the guides as they walked forward back into the fog.
After that, Sergei spent most of his time with his brothers, Wolfgang and Alexander, getting used to the Zone. He quickly learned everything he needed to. Sergei spent his time with his brother Wolfgang, whom was a Experienced Mercenary. Wolfgang taught Sergei many things. A few days later, Wolfgang was killed by bandits.
When Sergei recognized Freedom, he knew it was the faction for him. Sergei loves their morals, their people, and pretty much everything about Freedom. He joined, and became the Freedom Merchant. Freedom's ranks were wiped afterwards, and Sergei thought long and hard about applying again. After lots of persuasion to himself, and convincing from friends, he decided it was a good decision.
Specializations (if any): Trading (obviously)

|Faction Related Information|

What is Freedom's ideology?: That the zone should be free for all to visit.

Why do you wish to join Freedom?: Because I've seen what Duty has to offer, and I'm never going near that place again. To me Freedom is just that, Freedom. Freedom from pointless orders, bureaucracy and red tape. Freedom from jackasses expecting you to salute them.
Why should Freedom pick you?: I'm a great shot and I'm good with people and I'm always up for kicking some military ass.
How well do you know Freedomers?: My homeboy Seth Gecko!
Who is the Freedom Leader?: Tyr

Name: Khorn Kvik
Age: 28

Family Members:
Boris Kvik - Father (Deceased)
Eilee Kvik - Mother (Deceased)
Stovik Kvik - Older Brother (MIA in the Zone)

Back-story:
Born in Kiev, Ukraine in 1980. Had an average family like any other except his father had a job at the Chernobyl Power Plant as an Engineer while his mother worked as a at a nearby shop. His brother stayed at home dealing with any home issues and had to take care of Khorn as they grew up. His family could only afford one car so his mother was forced to drive his father to work every day.  Khorn and Stovik attended classes as much as they could but mostly learned from each other. If they could they left school to have fun. They cared only for adventuring and it was worth the punishment they got from their parents for ditching. They generally camped out for a few nights and always wanted to live in the outdoors. But they knew it be good to get some education in, because class was a good place to get sleep they didn't get when camping outdoors.

The Kvik family lived normally until 1986 when the disaster struck, taking Khorn's father and mother away. Because of the lost of his parents, Khorn and Stovik were forced to live on their own until 2007 when Stovik went of the Zone to learn what happen at the Plant and why they lost their parents. Stovik wanted to learn who he could blame for their loss. Stovik and Khorn tried to keep in touch but as time went by, Stovik stopped responding and Khorn feared the worst had befallen him. Khorn had to make a choice, try to find his brother and bring him back, or give up on his last family member and live on his own.

On his 28th birthday Khorn chose to venture in and look. Being new to the zone, Khorn thought it best to join an established group that could help him learn of his brother's fate. To this day, Khorn only knows that his brother has made it to Pripyat and nothing more. Khorn hopes he will get there soon to find him. Problem is he may have become a Monolith...

Specializations (if any): Used to living outdoors and camping. Has experience  in surviving on his own to an extent.

|In-Character Information|

Name: Isaac Glashkinov
Age: 28
Family Members:
Wife- Passed Away
Son- Passed Away
Cousin- Missing

Backstory: I hail from neighbouring Pripyat, where I lived for just over 27 years. My wife died of cancer caused by the nuclear fallout, and before long the same fate corssed my son. Determined to lead a good life in their honour, I set off on a journey to the zone. On my way there, I met a man by the name of Bonesaw. He was fairly harmless, and led me to the outer stretches of the zone before sayiong farewell. He had provided me with bread and clothing, two things I would never have lived without.

Before soon, I set off into the zone.
At first I was unaware of the kinds of people lurking in the cordon. Turns out I walked straight up to a bandit, who attempted to rob me of the little money I still had. Alas I was saved by a mysterious STALKER, who scared off the bandit and took me to a safe place. Turns out he was a Freedomer, and I admired him and his faction. After that, all my adventures happened alongisde Freedomers, running errands, mainly. I cam to realize that Freedom was the faction that I wanted to join.

I continued to find my way around the zone, and learned it and it's inhabitants like the back of my hand. I used this information to lead some STALKERS new to the zone to the Freedom faction, showing them that they stand up for what is right.

Specializations (if any): I am a hard worker, with the ability to immediately do as I am told. I also have been roleplaying for 6 years so I love, and am not too bad at, the whole concept.
