Lesha Shelest

Lesha is 179 centimeters tall. He has a toned and slightly athletic build. He has gray eyes and dark brown short hair. Leaha is dressed in a standard orange environmentalist suit, most often he does not take off his helmet with a protective glass.

Lesha is an agile, overly noisy and careless person. He's brave, which is why he often gets into trouble. As an ecologist, he is still quite inexperienced because he has recently become one and is only learning the basics of this profession. Physically, he is not weak, Lyosha fights well, but he is not friends with weapons.

The action takes place in the Zone, an alternative version of the exclusion zone of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. After the accident, laboratories were set up in the Exclusion Zone, which allowed scientists to experiment with psychic abilities. Their experiments led to a second catastrophe that caused physical and meteorological phenomena throughout the Zone, as well as mutations of flora and fauna. The zone is full of anomalies — unexplained phenomena that do not fit into the framework of physics, and sometimes even the usual logic (pillars of fire, lightning, whirlwinds, tearing apart everything that falls into them).
Anomalies generate "artifacts" - objects with special properties, such as anti-gravity or absorption of radioactivity. People known as stalkers enter the territory of the Zone in search of such items for personal enrichment. Despite the fact that a large number of stalkers work alone, the Zone is inhabited by various factions, each with its own philosophy and goals. The group "Duty", consisting of former military personnel, believes that the Zone poses the greatest threat to humanity, and intends to destroy it by any means possible. The Svoboda group, on the contrary, believes that the Zone should be accessible to everyone, and protects it at all costs.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine maintain a cordon around the Zone, trying to prevent unauthorized entry. In addition, Ukrainian special forces units regularly conduct special operations within the Zone, such as targeted strikes against stalkers or ensuring the security of certain facilities. Among the hostile creatures in the Zone, the most dangerous are humans and mutants, many of whom possess aggressive psionic abilities.
