Biography
Russian immigrant originally from Saint Petersburg. After Nikolai lost his father (mother left them while he was a teenager) in a nuclear plant accident, he moved to USA while working on a freighter which headed to New York. He decided to stay in New York on a whim to start a new life in this land of hopes and opportunities. He learned some english while on seas but the russian accent was still very present. Working on the docks a few years he managed to get some money but was soon offered a job as a security guard at a mall with the help of his friend James who worked there already as a warehouse manager. They became friends when James was getting deliveries regularly from the docks to the Mega Mart. The training was arranged by Mega Mart chain and Nikolai was very motivated to his new job because the pay was way better than in the docks plus free health care. A couple of years passed by, Nikolai didn’t give much thought for the news around the world about the spreading epidemic. His world was the mall, the tiny circle of friends and work was enough to keep him happy.
The moment when Nikolai woke up to the situation of world going to hell wasn’t until he saw riots on the street and dozens of people breaking mall’s windows and stealing stuff while he was in duty. It was the moment when he realized he had blocked all shitty news out of his perfect life and this was the reality breaking in. It was time for an action as Nikolai drove home while watching these red eyed savages attack people on the side of the road. He quickly stuffed his old sailor bag full of canned food, spare clothes, some tools and a fireaxe he had hanging by his door in case of emergencies, and this was the emergency for sure and left his home. It was time to go and find a safe spot and all he could think of was the sea, one barrier behind his back from where he could not be attacked.
Nikolai wandered along the coastline back and forth, never leaving the sea out of his sight. He avoided people unless they came towards him in good attensions. He loved to be with people, but maybe trusted them too easily, is that a good or bad thing these days, that is an unanswered question. There were not much people around, just some small groups which he didn’t feel comfortable enough to join but did some trading with them when the need of food or water became imminent. Nikolai Loginoff was known as a sailor or with nickname ”Logi” or ”Kola” amongs the people he knew.

Hey, Rouhi! My name is Pika and I'll be reviewing your application today.

Your app is great so far! The only issue I'm seeing is that the biography is a bit short. It's only four sentences and does not reference life post-apocalypse whatsoever. A few sentences will suffice, I just need to make sure that you've read the lore. 14 years is a long time—there's a lot Nikolai could have been doing in New York over the years.

Once you've made those additions, just reply to bump the thread and we can continue with the application process. Thanks!

Okay, sure. I thought that i could continue it later but i see no problem here, i make the bio more deeper.

Hi again, did some story further, english is not my main language, so sorry if there are mistakes in spelling. The thing i wondered was how far Monroe county is from the coast? And do i need to explain how i got there in the story?

Alright, you're good to go now. Your application is accepted!

Monroe County is in the state of New York, where Rochester is located. It's not close to the coast of the Atlantic, but it is right on the border of the US and Canada. Lake Ontario separates the two. You already mentioned Nikolai being in New York, so it can be assumed he traveled upstate over the years. No need to clarify more unless you want to!



If you have any other questions, feel free to reply and ask. Thanks!

Thanks a lot!
