Alexander Benkendorf

Loyal, dedicated to his work, and highly intelligent. The Count holds conservative views. He plays a double game; no one but himself knows his true motives; he is cunning. Benkerdorf is a natural leader, powerful and influential. He is a calm and reliable person, attentive to detail. In the past, he was a General Adjutant and a General of Cavalry, but now, at the request of the Tsar (Nicholas I), he heads the 3rd Department of the Imperial General Staff. He is strict with his subordinates, but ready to help in difficult times. He is intelligent and well-mannered, but overly distrustful. He finds it difficult to accept being in love with someone and tries to avoid feelings. If he falls in love, he begins to distance himself in every possible way.

Always communicates coldly, reservedly, only on business, but is an excellent negotiator, if necessary, communicates diplomatically. Has a special sense of humor, which can seem too cruel and even sarcastic, but can allow himself to do this only with people he does not like. Since he has German origins, sometimes mutters something under his breath in German and even swears (but only when alone)

Tall (180 cm), dark hair with a little gray, well-built (athletic) thanks to his military service since youth, dark brown (black) eyes, 40 years old.
