name: dmitry itskov stage name/nickname: zavet gender: male, man pronouns: he, him age: twenty two years old live in: moscow, russia

around his entire being, a mystical aura is felt, making it hard not to doubt some kind of vampiric origin of dmitry. in his presence, there is a sense of mystery that one wants to touch, but on an instinctual level, it is frightening. despite his unsettling appearance and dark music that is incomprehensible to many, dmitry is extremely sensitive and empathetic, with a passionate heart. between the lines of his songs about gothic cathedrals, human feelings of painful love sneak through, scratching like a razor blade, which he secretly longs to taste and indulge. he combines cold rationality with barely perceptible passion beneath his skin, he treats his beloved craft with meticulousness, whether it is a detailed sketch for a new tattoo or a new experimental album into which he pours every particle of his soul, willingly drowning in his creativity. he intentionally does not seek close connections and never has: he is like a unintentional talisman, unintentionally attracting people but keeping them at a safe distance. yet if someone’s warmth manages to penetrate like a disease under his cold, pale skin, he will give himself completely, surrendering to feelings without reserve.

extremely tall and slender, with porcelain-white skin so pale that faint veins and capillaries are visible. his facial features are androgynous, and his naturally melancholic, dirty green eyes enhance the somberness of both his appearance and personality. his messy, black dyed hair falls just below his ears. occasionally, he emphasizes his gothic look with simple makeup: black eyeshadow smudged across his eyelids, slightly falling onto the dark circles from sleepless nights. he has a silver piercing on his lower lip, a slightly sideways ring. his pale skin is covered in numerous tattoo sketches, with particularly striking designs such as a spiderweb stretching from his hand, crawling along his thin fingers, and a gothic cross tattooed on the left side of his neck. he is usually seen in black, worn, and wrinkled clothing that does nothing to conceal his thin frame. his black t-shirts and long sleeves, often from niche brands, feature biblical symbols like crosses and satanic pentagrams.

job: tattoo artist working at a small studio, a creator of gothic and unsettling tattoo designs. hobbies: an aspiring musician, deeply immersed in his niche. he composes experimental hip-hop/rap with heavy, dark instrumentals,some of the bleakest, most oppressive hip-hop to come out of russia. past experience: previously worked as a videographer, creating music videos for popular russian artists, before fully dedicating himself to his own music.

likes: dmitry highly values and loves his own creativity, even though he treats it very harshly and often criticizes his own works.

he greatly appreciates his own uniqueness and that of others; he is not ashamed to stand out from the crowd with his gothic aesthetic. he is deeply inspired by the many subcultures and musical bands he grew up with.

he is a true romantic, valuing sincerity and attention to detail rather than social clichés about “healthy” romantic relationships. he often sacrifices himself for the people he loves.

dislikes: falseness and manipulation of his feelings. he values human sincerity and honesty, and therefore he himself never hides anything, expecting the same straightforwardness from others.

popular luxury brands, which have become symbols of “wealth,” like gucci, etc.

dmitry speaks in a relaxed, informal way, his speech laced with slang and the occasional anglicism. there is an ease to the way he talks, almost disarming, but beneath that simplicity lies a readiness to shift into something deeper, to hold a conversation that goes beyond the surface without losing that same effortless tone.
