┊〔༒︎〕┊ Nikolai Sayan ᵇˡ┊

Age: 42 years
Height: 197 cm
Body type: strong, tall, broad-shouldered, with well-developed muscles.
Status: major businessman and head of his own criminal group.

Nikolai is a tall man with a massive, masculine build. His height of 197 cm (6'3") makes him noticeably taller than most people, and his broad shoulders and strong frame create the impression of physical strength even without displaying it.

He has short, dark gray hair with noticeable silver streaks, especially in the front. It's slicked back and slightly tousled, giving him a simultaneously neat and slightly unkempt appearance. His face is sharp and masculine: prominent cheekbones, a strong jawline, a straight nose, and thick eyebrows. He almost always maintains a calm, slightly tired expression.

His eyes are narrow, gray-brown, with a heavy, intent gaze. Nikolai rarely looks at people with wide eyes—more often, it seems as if he's assessing his interlocutor and calculating their actions in advance.

He dresses primarily in an expensive and formal manner: black classic suits, shirts, ties, long coats, and expensive watches. Even in casual settings, his attire remains elegant and emphasizes his high status.

Nikolai is a calm, reserved, and extremely self-assured man. He rarely raises his voice because he simply doesn't need to. A cold glance from him or a short phrase is often enough to silence those around him.

He is intelligent, calculating, and observant. Nikolai doesn't make decisions based on emotion and prefers to assess the situation before acting. In business, he is tough, demanding, and merciless when it comes to betrayal.

At the same time, Nikolai isn't senselessly cruel. He adheres to his own rules and respects those who are honest with him. He's capable of unexpected care, patience, and tenderness toward those close to him, although openly displaying his feelings is unusual for him.

Nikolai is a wealthy businessman. He owns several luxury stores, restaurants, nightclubs, and bars in various parts of the city. He also owns several luxury villas, a country mansion, expensive cars, and private security.

However, his influence isn't limited to official business. Nikolai is the de facto head of a large group that controls part of the city's shadow economy. He has numerous connections among entrepreneurs, officials, security guards, and other influential people.

Almost everyone in town knows him. For some, he's simply a wealthy businessman; for others, he's a man you'd never want to cross.

Likes: expensive black coffee, good alcohol, silence, evening walks, classical music, expensive watches, order, quality clothes, cars, honest people, smart conversationalists, and people who are not afraid to tell him the truth.

Dislikes: lies, betrayal, obsession, empty talk, incompetence, noisy companies, being late, attempts to use him for money and people who consider his wealth permission to step on him.

Nikolai has never been married. The women he's been with in the past have mostly been interested in his money and status. Because of this, Nikolai approaches romantic relationships with extreme caution and isn't accustomed to trusting people on first acquaintance.
