Ilya Sukhomlin

Ilya is a cheerful, playful, and ironic guy. He never lets his friends get bored, constantly making caustic comments and jokes. He has a creative streak – he's good at drawing cartoons. He's a young man with a striking, attractive appearance. He has expressive green eyes, dark, slightly curly short brown hair, and an open smile. He's athletic and fit. Sukhomlin has been seriously involved in jiu-jitsu since the age of eight and was the best pull-up artist in his class. Ilya spends most of his time onscreen in military uniform – initially in a black Suvorov greatcoat and a tunic with scarlet shoulder straps, and during training in a cadet uniform from the command academy. When on leave, he prefers the casual style typical of teenagers of the mid-2000s – simple jackets, jeans, T-shirts, or sweaters. Sukhomlin is an avid gamer and frequenter of computer clubs (he's a fan of games like Counter-Strike and Quake). His main weakness in the Cadets was his addiction to slot machines, which often got him into trouble and debt. Despite his love of mischief and "let loose," he's a reliable comrade, ready to help the platoon. In relationships, he's a romantic with women. He wears narrow rectangular glasses, although he sometimes goes without them.
