Name: Vladek Biriukov, also known as Spinner.
Age: 39
Faction Affinity: Loner
Height: 1 m 70
Weight: 45 kg
Hair Color: He is completely bald, but his hair used to be brown.
Eye Color: Black.
Piercings: None.
Tattoos: One on shoulder saying "Vanguard" in Cyrillic.
Scars: One on back of right hand.
Mental Illness: None.
Physical Description: Of average height but built like a fridge, Spinner does not look like the kind of man one would want to mess with in a bar. His black eyes have a piercing quality to them, as if they could bore holes through somebody's skull simply by looking at them. His hands though are surprisingly agile and skilled for a man who looks like he's been in bar fights all his life.
Back Story: Surprisingly, Spinner isn't a thug or a criminal despite his overall appearance. Before coming to the Zone, he used to work at a textile factory outside Moscow, and he is still remarkably skilled at making and repairing clothing and other gear. Born in 1973 into a family of staunch Soviet supporters, it came as a shock to him when the USSR collapsed in 1991. The factory where he worked was brutally thrown from the stable planned economy of the Soviet Union into the savage tidal wave of the free market, and it was unable to compete, closing down in 2001 and leaving every single one of its employees without a job.
Spinner became a militant member of the KPRF, the Russian Communist Party. Unemployed and supported only by other members of the party, he was involved in many violent altercations with the police and Fascists. In 2012, after leading a precarious life for several years, he turned to the Zone. He had already heard about said Zone on the news, as well as from people who knew ex-stalkers. The stories of mounds of wondrous objects known as artefacts, each worth well over a thousand rubles, was enough to get Spinner moving, and soon, he ended up in the Zone.
