Character Name: Koshchiy Doroshenko, or on his passport: Kolenka Doroshenko, or Ko. Age: Legally 22, but he could be anywhere between 18 and 25 probably. Birthday: 8 Jan 1992 - again, this is the date on his passport, as he doesn't know the real date.
Personality: He does not trust easily, believing that Lucine is the only one who does not have the potential to betray him.
Of course there is the potential for violence. He was raised into violence, so it is difficult for him to see it as wrong because it is just how people are. Violence is just a means to an end. Also? It feels good. It makes him feel powerful.
Given the chance, he will try to protect the weak. Mostly this means other supernatural people in bad situations, but it extends to human children. He doesn't think that humans are born bad, but he definitely believes that humans learn cruelty and oppression as they get older, and has never found anything to prove to him that there is any way around this. The older the human, or the more humans there are in one place, the more likely they are to be dangerous and the less qualms he has with getting rid of them.
He's loyal to Lucine, and will fight for anyone on his side, or anyone he could convince to be on his side.
He's completely unsubtle and really bad at hiding his emotions. Mostly I think he's someone I'm going to have to work out as I go...
History: Julya and Ko were orphans in the same area in the Ukraine. Street children, they were recruited into the same militia when they were young enough to believe it was either fight or die. Both healthier than other children, and stronger, and luckier, they managed to survive as messengers and spies, looking after weapons, and when they were a bit older, fighting. Both know how to use a range of weapons, how to make and place explosives. They spoke Ukranian, knew a bit of Russian but became almost fluent, and started learning awkward English, which he’s almost fluent at now because of how many years with Lucine.
They were separated when the shit hit the fan and a lot of people died. It hit him hard. He did what all good demons do and went off the rails. Lucine had him, at that point, and saved him over and over again. He was probably around 15.
Julya returned a few years ago. She moved into the convent too and feels passionately for Lucine’s mission, her brother, her husband, and any and all supernatural children. Julya’s legal age is 24. He’s always considered her his older sister because she was taller when they met. Still, girls grow faster so she might not be. She has a four year old daughter, Marija, and is pregnant with a boy.
