Personality Name: Vladislav Thanner Kolesnikov
((for my own reference: Владислав Колесников))
Nicknames: He prefers to go by Thanner, usually introducing himself this way. Also answers to Vlad.
Gender: Male
Age: 21
Birthday: July 17th
Sign: Cancer
Blood Type: O+
Fav. Food: Protein drinks, oh wait you meant actual food? He loves his mother’s Shchi, or cabbage soup, the one he makes is good, but doesn’t compare to his moms.
Hated Food: Fast food
Job: Personal Trainer, on weekends and during the summer he volunteers as a trail guide, leading camping trips and hiking expeditions.
Hobbies: Exercise – Thanner’s an exercise and health nut. He tries to make it to the gym at least three times a week, if not more. But school and practice will sometimes get in the way. He loves the way working out makes him feel, and being a gym rat has the added bonus of looking good with your shirt off. Of course, when he first started working out he went at it with a fervor and before long he was straining muscles left and right. He learned from his mistakes and now he makes sure to check himself to prevent causing further
Camping – When he has a free weekend or vacation time Thanner loves to go camping. Real camping, none of that air mattress and portable stove nonsense. He knows how to pitch a tent, start a campfire, and identify poisonous plants. When he’s camping for more than a day or two he’ll bring a rifle and actually hunt for his food. The man’s a big outdoor’s type.
Needlepoint – Needlepoint is Thanner’s secret hobby. His big fingers look to clunky to hold a needle, but he’s surprisingly agile with his hands. He makes a variety of things, the repetitive motions of the needle being his way to relax. He sometimes will sell some of his crafts on eBay when he’s strapped for cash.
Athlete – Thanner has two main sports that he plays, Ice Hockey and Rugby. He loves the physical nature of both sports, and having the large build that he does he’s quite good at both sports. He’s also very competitive wanting to be the best at whatever game he’s playing, and he takes it hard when he loses. Luckily, he’s more of a silent seether, than a loud mouth sore loser. He's the same when he gets injured, injuries put him in a down mood, just wanting to get back to playing.
Gemstone: Emerald
Virtues: Self Sufficient – Being raised by a single mother who wanted a daughter Thanner has learned all of the domestic duties a potential housewife should know. Being 6'5 and definitely not a housewife this would seem useless, but it turns out that’s not true. Thanner knows how to cook, clean, do his own laundry, set a table for a dinner party, patch up his clothes, write thank you cards, and shop smart. He’s completely self-sufficient, not having to rely on anyone to get by.
Steadfast – Thanner is like a rock, and not just physically. The man has no problem standing up for his beliefs, and he won’t back down. He’s also not one to break down under pressure, or have melt downs. He can handle his friend’s emotional crises without collapsing under the emotional weight. Now, he doesn’t always give the best advice, but he tries, and if nothing else he always has an ear open for a friend.
In addition to the fact that he’s always willing to listen to his friend’s, he’s also always willing to help them out. Need help moving? He’s there. Need help getting from Point A to Point B? He’ll drive you wherever you need to go. If he’s close enough to you he’ll even be your partner in crime, he has pretty loose ethics when it comes to his best friends.
Motherly – The other thing that being raised by a mother who wanted daughter has done to Thanner is to instill a very maternal attitude in him. Around his friends (and he uses this term loosely, he could’ve just met you and you’d be considered a friend as long as your nice enough to him) he feels like a mother hen. He has to make sure they’re eating right, and that nothing’s bothering them, is your collar straight? Oh, it’s not, here let me fix that. He wants his friend’s to succeed and will do whatever he can to help them out. When they win he feels like he won too, and being competitive he always wants them to win.
Vivacious – Thanner is super friendly, and outgoing. He’ll talk to anyone, and he always seems to be doing something. At any given time there’s usually two or three people over at his house, playing video games or just chilling out. Sometimes he’ll come home and a handful of people that weren’t there when he left will be having a mini-party. He never minds, all of his valuables are locked up, locked down, or bolted to the floor so he doesn’t have to worry about things being stolen. Not that he’d worry anyway, he’s much too trusting.
The Russian is loud, especially when he’s enjoying himself. His laugh is the definition of booming and you can hear it across the room. Not only does Thanner talk loud, he also whispers loud, and god forbid he start yelling. It’s not just his voice that is loud either, the way he moves, and grins, and expresses himself just yells ‘I’m here and I’m ready to have fun.’
Flaws: Dense – Thanner is…not so smart. He has plenty of common sense, but when it comes to book smarts he got passed over. He struggles with math and science especially. He reads fine, just very slowly, and his writing, while perfectly legible isn't very eloquent. Thanner struggled through high school, a solid C student even though he tried his hardest. After high school he decided that maybe it was just the setting that was holding him back and he went to SHP for a year, majoring in Kinesiology. At the end of the year he realized he just really didn't have an academic mind and decided to take time off to work full time and save up money.
Slow to Anger – Thanner’s temper is like a can of hair spray with a match held underneath it. Slow to heat up, but once it does it explodes violently. Thanner can take a lot of pressure until he can’t. There usually isn’t any warning to when his temper will explode, the littlest thing can set him off if he’s already bottled up too much anger. He tends to get physically violent when he does lash out and his anger is blind, not caring who it is he's lashing out at. He'll apologize later, but that usually doesn't help after you've been shoved against a wall or had something thrown at you.
Motherly – Bossy? Thanner? You bet your a**. Thanner knows what best for you and he won’t take no for an answer. You’re going to do what he says, because he has your best interests at heart, why wouldn’t you do it his way? It just makes sense, at least to him. Thanner doesn’t seem to realize that his bossiness can rub people, especially his friends that always have to deal with it, the wrong way. Unfortunately if you try to tell him you don’t appreciate his bossiness he gets hurt, he was only trying to help you after all.
Thanner’s also super protective. He wants to know where you’re going, who’s going to be there and how late you’re going to be out. God forbid he doesn’t approve of the people you’re seeing, or the place you’re going, because he’ll give you a piece of his mind. The good side of this is that if you hurt one of his friend’s you hurt him and he’ll get you back for that.
Rigid – Once Thanner sets himself to a plan he doesn’t deviate from it, no matter what. He’s not one to improvise, or ‘make the best of the situation’. Even if everything looks hopeless and bleak and the plan is a suicide mission he will still stick exactly to the plan, unless he’s physically stopped from doing so. If he is physically stopped he tends to have a momentary shut-down while he shifts his focus. This doesn’t apply if there’s not an already set plan. If you want to go to the movies spur of the moment? Sure. Change your mind and want to go to the beach instead? That’s not going to happen, Thanner’s heading to the movies with or without you.

Family/Home/Job Family:
Katerina Petukhov (46) – Mother, divorced Cornelius when Thanner was three.
Cornelius Kolesnikov (52) – Father, lives in Russia
Jacquelyn Kolesnikov (37) – Step-Mother, never sees
Dominik Kolesnikov (23) – Older Brother, lives with Cornelius
Home: Thanner lives in a loft style apartment, he lives by himself but there's almost always someone staying the night or just hanging out. His door is nearly always open and he trusts his friends enough to let them come over whenever they want to.
Job: Thanner works as a Personal Trainer at 25-Hour Fitness, it's the gym he's been going to for years and he's gotten to know the employees. When the manager heard he was looking for a job and had a year of SHP under his belt majoring in Kinesiology he decided to give him a chance. He knew Thanner knew more about the best ways to work out the human body than your average joe since he spent so much time in the gym.
On weekends and during the summer Thanner volunteers with the local park rangers as a trail guide. He leads two day camping trips, and during the summer longer hikes and camping trips. He doesn't get paid for what he does, but he doesn't care, he just enjoys being outside in the wilderness.

Cavalier
Cavalier: Terra
Element: The Forest
Why Terra?: Thanner's connection to the forest is subtle but definitely there. His personality has features similar to a forest. A forest is self-contained and self-sufficient. From the outside a forest looks like a quiet place, but really it's a hustling bustling hub of activity. The forest is also a nurturing place, sheltering the animals that live inside it.
The forest has bad qualities as well. The growth of a forest is slow, and the trees rigid prone to breaking before bending. Forests also tend to be thick with foliage and easy to get lost in.
Thanner posses several of these traits as well. He's steadfast both emotionally and physically, and has hidden layers that can confuse a person if they really get to know him. He's also has a strong protective instinct over those he cares about. He manages to take care of himself not needing to rely on others to survive and make it in the world. While he doesn't need to rely on anyone it doesn't mean he's not surrounded by others. His social roots extend a long ways, getting entangled in the lives surrounding him.
Thanner's bad side also tends to reflect the qualities of a forest. The man is set in his ways and like a hundred year old tree his roots run deep. It's nearly impossible to change his mind about something once he's made it up.
As a Cavalier Thanner will be a strong, reliable soldier. He takes orders extremely well, and works well under pressure (until he doesn't). He's good with his hands and with some training has the potential to be good with a sword. His large build makes him slow, but he's strong. He's got a good head on his shoulders when it comes to common sense, and he doesn't rush into a situation without taking a moment to think about it.
Challenge: I bet you can't see the forest for the trees! (( That's horrible, I need some help lmao ))
Fuku Colour: Brown

Name: Vladislav Thanner Kolesnikov
((for my own reference: Владислав Колесников))
Nicknames: He prefers to go by Thanner, usually introducing himself this way. Also answers to Vlad.
I want to call him drac too XD IDK if you want to add that as a teasing nickname or not it just came to mind for probably obvious reasons
Job: Personal Trainer, on weekends and during the summer he volunteers as a trail guide, leading camping trips and hiking expeditions.
I know its 'just a job' but I'd love to know how he got into this! Does he like helping other people get into shape or just working with those already IN shape but who want to get out more in organized expeditions?
Hobbies: Exercise – Thanner’s an exercise and health nut. He tries to make it to the gym at least three times a week, if not more. But school and practice will sometimes get in the way. He loves the way working out makes him feel, and being a gym rat has the added bonus of looking good with your shirt off.
I'm nebby, so I'm curious if he's ever hurt himself by pushing too hard, or has he always been mindful of how far he pushes himself?
Needlepoint – Needlepoint is Thanner’s secret hobby. His big fingers look to clunky to hold a needle, but he’s surprisingly agile with his hands. He makes a variety of things, the repetitive motions of the needle being his way to relax. He sometimes will sell some of his crafts on eBay when he’s strapped for cash.
No crit... just love this, can't sew myself so there may be extra appeal here XD
Athlete – Thanner has two main sports that he plays, Ice Hockey and Rugby. He loves the physical nature of both sports, and having the large build that he does he’s quite good at both sports. He’s also very competitive wanting to be the best at whatever game he’s playing, and he takes it hard when he loses. Luckily, he’s more of a silent seether, than a loud mouth sore loser.
Again with the curiosity of injuries, how does he handle them? With this kinda sports its bound to happen, what would he DO if he were laid up for some reason?
Virtues: Self Sufficient – Being raised by a single mother who wanted a daughter Thanner has learned all of the domestic duties a potential housewife should know. Being 6’6 and definitely not a housewife this would seem useless, but it turns out that’s not true. Thanner knows how to cook, clean, do his own laundry, set a table for a dinner party, write thank you cards, and shop smart. He’s completely self-sufficient, not having to rely on anyone to get by.
6'6 is HUGE o.O He's taller than Charonite I think...
Since he can embroider, does he also repair some of he clothes? Darn socks? Sew Buttons? It would fit well with his self sufficiency if you were interested!
Steadfast – Thanner is like a rock, and not just physically. The man has no problem standing up for his beliefs, and he won’t back down. He’s also not one to break down under pressure, or have melt downs. He can handle his friend’s emotional crises without collapsing under the emotional weight. Now, he doesn’t always give the best advice, but he tries, and if nothing else he always has an ear open for a friend.
- does he take other arguments if their logical? Or will be be more mulish and refuse to move, if carried too far this could have some flaw-aspects that could be fun to play with so long as you kept it primarily a virtue
In addition to the fact that he’s always willing to listen to his friend’s, he’s also always willing to help them out. Need help moving? He’s there. Need help getting from Point A to Point B? He’ll drive you wherever you need to go. If he’s close enough to you he’ll even be your partner in crime, he has pretty loose ethics when it comes to his best friends.

He tends to get physically violent when he does lash out and his anger is blind, not caring who it is he's lashing out at. He'll apologize later, but that usually doesn't help after you've been shoved against a wall or had something thrown at you.
I kind of like this, from 'like a rock' to 'like a volcano'
What does he do after he calms down though?
Motherly – Bossy? Thanner? You bet your a**. Thanner knows what best for you and he won’t take no for an answer. You’re going to do what he says, because he has your best interests at heart, why wouldn’t you do it his way? It just makes sense, at least to him. Thanner doesn’t seem to realize that his bossiness can rub people, especially his friends that always have to deal with it, the wrong way. Unfortunately if you try to tell him you don’t appreciate his bossiness he gets hurt, he was only trying to help you after all.

God forbid he doesn’t approve of the people you’re seeing, or the place you’re going, because he’ll give you a piece of his mind. The good side of this is that if you hurt one of his friend’s you hurt him and he’ll get you back for that.
Might want to swap this to 'nagging' for the first part at least, Motherly used twice could throw people off.
Rigid – Once Thanner sets himself to a plan he doesn’t deviate from it, no matter what. He’s not one to improvise, or ‘make the best of the situation’. Even if everything looks hopeless and bleak and the plan is a suicide mission he will still stick exactly to the plan, unless he’s physically stopped from doing so.

That’s not going to happen, Thanner’s heading to the movies with or without you.
Ahh... this ties in very well to like a rock, but why is he so steadfast about plans? What happens if something FORCED him to deviate? Like there were no other alternative?
