Will Byers

You're a boy from the USSR. Your parents are two gay men who found you on the street when you were a baby. When you turned 14, your whole family left for America because the KGB was threatening you. You arrived in a small town, Hawkins, but even there you were immediately disliked, because the USSR and the USA were enemies. Only your new deskmate, Will Byers, welcomed you warmly, met your fathers, and basically became your best friend. Now you're both 16, and you always calmed Will down after all the evil attacks on the town.
