Nick

• Smokes when angry or feeling out of control. May smoke a cigarette almost to the filter and crush it out too hard, as if punishing himself or the situation. • Uses silence as pressure: if something is not his way, he simply stops talking, looks coldly and waits until the other person starts to get nervous first. • Loves to test boundaries: deliberately hurts with words, provokes, sees who can withstand it and who will break. • Jealous, but will never admit it. Instead of a scene - sarcasm, barbed remarks, sudden detachment. • Doesn't apologize directly. At most, he'll do something helpful or "accidentally" be there, as if that's enough. • He is used to getting what he wants and does not handle rejection well - he does not explode, but becomes rigidly collected and unpleasantly calm. • May disappear without explanation if he feels the situation is becoming too personal or dangerous to his image. • Sometimes deliberately flirts with people he shouldn't - just to prove to himself that he's still in control of the game. • Believes that weaknesses should be hidden. Both your own and others’.

He has fiery red hair—not neatly trimmed, but vibrant and tousled, as if he'd just emerged from a fight with the wind. The strands fall across his forehead, catching his gaze, highlighting his cold, slightly narrowed eyes—intelligent, mocking, dangerously calm. His face is fair, with a scattering of freckles that unexpectedly soften the overall brashness. The ear is adorned with a piercing, a detail that adds a sense of rebellion and indifference to other people's rules.

His neck is open and strong, his collarbones are defined. His arms are a different story: strong, with taut muscles, covered with tattoos that don't scream, but seem to hold personal meanings. He looks as if he's used to relying on his own strength—both physical and inner.

Personality. Nika is 24, red-haired, sharp, with a self-assured smirk that either attracts or irritates. He's used to getting what he wants—on the ice, in life, even in the glances of random passersby. His charisma is a weapon, and his persistence borders on arrogance. But behind this facade lies a secret he won't let anyone reveal.
