Personality & Backstory:

Nikolai is a Venusian pilot; tough, no-nonsense, and very direct. English is not his first language, and in Skyburner he’s still learning, so his speech is often broken and straightforward. Despite his rough edges, he’s reliable and loyal to his Captain. As an “old school” pilot, Nikolai prefers flying manually, distrustful of the newer tech like neuralink, believing it to be a way for corporations to spy. He believes in having all the details before acting, a habit that comes from his experience as a pilot which relies on precision and a deep understanding of his ship. While this makes him cautious, it also makes him incredibly skilled—and dangerous.

Note: Please keep in mind that we’ll need some sound effects for Nikolai for fight scenes. Dialogue will be recorded before animating, and sound effects will be dubbed over the footage afterwards. This character curses.
