Welcome to Gaia! ::

Self proclaimed adrenaline junkie, adventurist, and poacher, it's safe to assume that Dimitri likes to live on the edge. The man loves to stay active period. It's only then that he'll smile out of joy though some say that's a scary sight to behold. Despite this he does have a sense of humor; and he can appreciate mischief or comedy. Generally speaking he is a bit selfish though, usually thinking about only forwarding his own agenda. He doesn't think he's above any law, but he doesn't think he should allow himself to be arrested by a cop who can't best him in hand-to-hand combat either. It's important to note that he's also very competitive. As far as his morals go, so long as you stay on his good side one should be able to maintain a relatively peaceful life.

If you do want to get on his good side, there are several things you can do. Talk about guns with him, accompany him on his adventures, make him laugh, or even more simple--bake him a Pirozhki. He has a very simple taste in dining, mostly due to his own inadequacy at cooking. Dimitri doesn't respond to flirting very well. If you're looking for a quick fling, just say so. Otherwise, he doesn't want to be tied down anywhere so he avoids getting to know anyone too well.

Born in Moscow, the capital city of Russia, Dimitri was never one for peaceful living. Throughout his youth he had been a troublemaker and a rather scrappy one at that. Unable to deal with their son once he barely graduated highschool with a GPA of 2.5, they sent him off to the military in hopes of getting him straightened out. Unfortunately, it did the exact opposite of that. Faced with rigorous physical and mental challenges, Dimitri indeed saw it as a test for himself. A test he was going to pass with flying colors. With all of his efforts focusing on survival and self improvement, Dimitri had finally found something he enjoyed doing.

After seven years, at the age of 25, he was handpicked to be in a Spetsnaz unit and underwent more brutal training. This time, there was more of an emphasis on how to operate in different environments like mountain ranges, woodlands, icy plains, and so forth. While he excelled in most of his duties, he couldn't deny that he was beginning to get bored. It was a fine thing indeed, to know how to survive in the harshest of places, but there was no real practical application for it due to the lack of international conflict. So he retired from the military at the age of 30, intending to put his skills to the test as a big game hunter. Once free to to as he pleased, he spent half a year on the plains of Africa, indulging himself in his less then legal hobby. It was while planning his next trip that he found out about Nirvani Island, and the animals that lived there. It would be like a tropical getaway and a hunting trip in one deluxe package!

Immediately, he set out to investigate; determined to pit his training and courage against Mother Nature's pets. Not knowing what to find, or what to expect for that matter, his adventure on Nirvani Island is about to begin...
