Overview

Born near Petrograd, Russia - Leonid started his "career" early. At the age of 15, he was deeply into the various illicit activities he could find in his area. He was caught some years later, and sentanced to live out the rest of his life in Gulag, in Siberia.

After spending some time in Gulag, he became entrenched in the Bratva lifestyle. Breaking free of the exile, he continued to rise in prominence within the family. His rather ruthless rise to power garnered the notice of a Ventrue.

He was embraced in 1940, serving through the Agoge and working within the Bratva to amass more connections and influence. In 1950 he was Acknowledged by Prince Nikolai in St. Petersberg.

As time marched forward, and Baba Yaga stirred - he went to ground and kept clear of her notice. Eventually, his travel would lead him to Santa Rosa - reuiniting with friends and seeking to make himself a name in the United States.



Soundtrack


Majestic, Boney M. - Rasputin
He could preach the Bible like a preacher
Full of ecstasy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire


Igor Stravinsky - The Firebird

RP Hooks


Russian - Leonid was born and raised in Russia, some time ago. He left rather recently - to avoid the Hag and her manipulations.

Bratva - He has rather deep ties with the Russian Bratva, having spent some time among them as a mortal, and even after his Embrace.

Hedonistic - Having spent time in Gulag, Leonid is very much someone who values luxury and comfort. His affluence affords him plenty of opportunity to spoil himself.

Ventrue - While he is from rough beginnings, he does believe in manners, rules and proper behavior - where required.
