Member Title: a{holy}DEVIL

Appearance:

At first look, Samuil appears to be friggin hot perfectly normal. Just your average Russian gentleman. But then he looks at you with those haunting black eyes of his and your world stops. He was actually born with brown eyes, but somewhere along the line the colors coalesced into a deep charcoal. Even in his late toddler years, Samuil knew that he had a kind of power over women. His foster mother’s friends would always come up with an excuse to hold him just a few extra minutes. Yes, even little baby Samuil could burn a woman’s soul with the fire in his eyes. And, knowing this, he puts his ability to good use…

Besides his eyes, Samuil is fairly usual. Not! His hair is…nonexistent. It used to be dark and a little on the wavy side. (He almost always used to wear it messy). One day, he decided to shave it all off. Looking in the mirror afterwards, Samuil decided that this was the look for him. He’s been bald ever since. He always has a 5 o’ clock shadow, as he really doesn’t pay as much attention to how he looks…he expects it to just come naturally. Samuil is rather tall, but not overly so. You can almost always catch him wearing a large black cloak. He prefers this to most other jackets, etc. He says it keeps him warmer than your ordinary jacket. And, of course, you can never catch him in the morning without a cup of coffee.

Sam walks around with a look on his face that plainly states: “I’m annoyed right now, don’t bug me.” This is ordinary, so don’t be alarmed. It is very rare that this look will change, unless he wants something from you. Then “the look” begins to eek out of those gorgeous eyes of his, and you’d better beware. He does, however, have an awe-inspiring smile. Now, though hardly anyone has ever seen him smile, there have been rumors that it does exist. It’s safe to say that only his closest friends will ever witness this magnificent event.

Novikov also has an amazing set of muscles. Whether this is due to him being a Russian, or rather its just because he works out one will never know. His abdomen is packed full…it’s more like a twelve pack than a six pack! His arms are large, but not huge…they’re the lean muscle type. But if one were to feel the power behind them, you’d most certainly feel the urge to either cry or faint (whether you be girl OR guy). His legs are also pure muscle, as though all he’s ever done is run laps his entire life. Trust me, when Samuil challenges you to a duel of arm-wrestling? Just say no…

Personality:

Samuil Novikov = conundrum. Simple as that math problem. I hate math. When it comes to explaining how he looks to explaining how he acts, you will always end up with some sort of complexity. Most of his Durmstrang students were either in awe of him, respected him, or were downright frightened of him. He can be terribly mutinous, especially on a day when someone forgot to bring him coffee. Yes, the man loves his coffee…probably more than he loves anything else. You’d better make sure you have a pot with you before you head Samuil’s way!

Aside from his love of coffee and his distaste for idiots, Samuil is a very dedicated man. He believes deeply in his work and he trusts that his fellow Death Eaters do also. As such, if a DE shows that they do not, he begins to take it personally. YOU DO NOT WANT THIS! Samuil has a mightily evil temper that has no warning signs whatsoever. He’ll be talking perfectly normal one minute and cursing you the next. This is something that he has tried to work on. Samuil enjoys having a pleasant conversation and does not particularly like yelling. It hurts his throat. However, he will do whatever it takes to make sure the Dark Lord has the most loyal of servants.

As you might have already guessed, Samuil is a firm believer in the term: “tough love”. He was not brought up this way himself, which might attribute to his ideals. He strongly believes that a person needs tough and able handling in their life if they are ever going to succeed. Well, most of them do at least. He also believes in RESPECT and TRUST, and will give both to those who reciprocate it.

But another thing, one that is overlooked: Samuil also believes in LOVE and MERCY. He is quick to anger, but is also quick to forgive. He’s like a gentle giant; one minute will be screaming in fury…the next will be as quiet as a mouse. He’s a diehard romantic, and is often teased by his closest friends about this. Sometimes he can even be caught reading poetry. Samuil is also a religious man, though not many know it. He was raised Catholic, though he turned his back on any kind of real religion when he turned of age. There are even some rumors floating around that he was once a Russian monk, and that he’s sworn to celibacy…part of this is because he’s never had a girlfriend around.

History:

Samuil was born on April 13, 1967. His father was a muggle man who had raped his mother, leaving her to die behind a dumpster in the middle of a scorching hot summer. The young girl was found by the muggle police and taken to a hospital, where she was given the proper care. When Samuil was born, he was immediately put into the foster care system. Little did they know that his mother was a proper, pure-blood Witch. About two months later, Samuil’s mother had passed away of a “drug overdose”. It was later found out that someone had slipped the drugs into her system. She had been murdered.

Shifted back and forth between foster family to foster family, Samuil’s first couple years of existent could basically be described as hell. The people in charge of the kids gave him a garbage bag to keep all of his stuff in, as if to say that he was just a piece of garbage as well. When he went to school, all the other kids knew that he was different. They teased him relentlessly, often ending up with Samuil in the nurses office with cuts and bruises. However, he showed an amazing amount of mercy towards those kids. He never fought back, but only laid there until an adult came and pulled them off him. When asked about it, he merely smiled and said, “They don’t understand it. They’re scared of me. Why should I blame them?”

When Samuil turned five years old, he was handed over to a foster mom by the name of Mari Novikov. Mari was a single parent with one other foster son, Mikhail. Unlike the other families, the Novikov family treated Samuil with respect and love. There was joy abounding in this home, and he took immediately to them. Mikhail and Samuil bonded strongly, though they did fight like brothers. Mari was a great mother to the both of them, showing them both the love and care that any mother should, and more. However, one day something bad happened, and the foster system came to take Samuil away from the Novikov’s. Although he doesn’t remember exactly what happened, he does remember this: he thought he would die that day. He felt as though he was being stripped of everything he had. Before he left, Mari whispered these words to him, and he never forgot them: “Do not worry, little one. They can take us away from you, but they cannot take away our love!”

Several years passed as well as several families. Samuil grew into a bitter, angry pre-teenager ready to take on the world. He’d ran away at least 15 times since he was 6 years old and had been to juvi-hall at least another 10. When he was 12 years old, he was put on trial again for armed robbery, along with his (at the time) 17 year old foster brother. Right when he was about to head into the double doors, an angel appeared. Standing only a few feet from him, was none other than Mari Novikov. She had come to kill save him.

Of course, by this time he had figured out that there was something else different about himself. He could do things that other people couldn’t. Being a rather smart little ass, he researched the subject. He found fictional stories about wizards and such, but nothing real. Surely that couldn’t be it. But soon he received a letter from a place called Durmstrang. He showed it to Mari, who immediately took interest. She had heard of these places before. Agreeing that he should go, they soon packed his things and he was heading off to the school.

(insert several years of Durmstrang school history here…*cough* hand aches...)

After graduating top in his class, Samuil was asked to stay on as a Professor. Astounded by their faith in him, he immediately agreed. Soon, he was teaching the first Occlumency class to ever be taught at Durmstrang. He proved to be an excellent teacher, if not a bit unorthodox. During his second year of teaching, he was brought before the Headmaster and given, what he calls, a gift. According to other teachers, it was merely a choice. The Headmaster told Samuil that if he wished to remain teaching there at Durmstrang, he had to prove that he was loyal to the school’s philosophies. Samuil, being a complete loyalist, immediately agreed. He had heard of these people called “Death Eaters” before, and was amazed at their power. It reminded him slightly of the power he had wielded over the children at the orphanage. Pleased with his answer, the Headmaster handed Samuil over to the Death Eaters.

Samuil never returned to Durmstrang. After only one year in service to the Dark Lord, he fell in love with his work. He grew to enjoy the hunts they went on, especially when after blood traitors. They were the worst things that crawled on this earth, and Samuil could feel the pleasure run through his veins when one of them screamed. He soon gained rank with the DE’s, earning his spot amongst the higher class of English wizards. Even though he was a foreigner, his expertise in the powers of the mind and his gorgeous bod sheer physical strength was an asset to any team.
