Dmitri is a soldier to the bone, but he also has a caring and loving heart since meeting Irene a female operative codenamed "Silent Raven" in MSF 

Appearance:

Dimitri is a tall, muscular man with a rugged appearance. He has short, dark hair, often hidden under a balaclava or tactical helmet. His piercing blue eyes are his most striking feature, often reflecting his intense focus and determination. He has several scars from past missions, the most prominent one running diagonally across his left cheek. He is usually seen in MSF tactical gear, preferring practical clothing that allows for maximum mobility and stealth.

Background:

Dimitri Volkov was born into a military family in St. Petersburg, Russia. From a young age, he was trained in various combat techniques by his father, a former soldier. This early training set the foundation for his later success in the Spetsnaz, where he quickly rose through the ranks due to his exceptional skills in hand-to-hand combat, marksmanship, and infiltration.

During his time with the Spetsnaz, Dimitri was involved in numerous covert operations, earning a reputation for being both ruthless and efficient. However, the brutal and often morally ambiguous nature of his missions began to weigh heavily on him. Disillusioned by the political motivations behind his assignments, Dimitri started questioning his purpose and the true cost of his actions.

Turning Point:

Dimitri’s turning point came during a mission in Eastern Europe, where he was ordered to eliminate a group of insurgents. Among them were civilians, including women and children. The mission left a lasting scar on Dimitri’s conscience, leading him to reconsider his path.

It was around this time that he heard whispers of Big Boss, a legendary soldier who had formed a new type of military organization: Militaires Sans Frontières (MSF). Intrigued by Big Boss's vision of a world where soldiers fought not for nations but for a common cause, Dimitri sought him out.

Joining MSF:

Impressed by Dimitri’s skills and conviction, Big Boss welcomed him into MSF. Dimitri embraced the new ideology, finding a renewed sense of purpose in fighting for a cause he believed in. His experience in the Spetsnaz made him an invaluable asset to MSF, where he took on the codename "Ghost" due to his ability to move undetected and strike without warning.

Skills and Abilities:

• Stealth and Infiltration: Dimitri excels in stealth operations, able to infiltrate heavily guarded locations and complete missions without being detected.
• Hand-to-Hand Combat: Trained in various martial arts, he is a formidable opponent in close-quarters combat.
• Marksmanship: Dimitri is a sharpshooter, proficient with a wide range of firearms.
• Survival Skills: His Spetsnaz training has endowed him with exceptional survival skills, allowing him to thrive in harsh environments.

Personality:

Dimitri is a man of few words, preferring to let his actions speak for him. He is fiercely loyal to Big Boss and the ideals of MSF, often putting the mission above all else. Despite his hardened exterior, he is haunted by his past, which fuels his determination to create a better future for soldiers like himself.
