Character's Name: Svetlana Alkaev
Character's Backstory:
(^Minimum of 1 Paragraphs^)
Svetlana was born to a relatively average family in Izhevsk, Russia. Throughout her childhood, Svetlana became interested in firearms through hunting with her father and brother. After graduating from high school, she looked into gunsmithing, not knowing what else to do with her future. She eventually started a gunsmithing apprenticeship and began working for Izhmash, manufacturing Kalashnikovs and other weapons. After a couple of years, Svetlana learned of the zone. She decided to leave her monotonous life behind for adventure in this strange and dangerous place. When she arrived there with nothing but the clothes on her back and the small amount of possessions she had brought with her, she quickly realized how valuable her technical knowledge was. She earned money repairing and modifying the weapons of her fellow STALKERs and decided to start a rather profitable business doing so.
Where the Character got the means to do Technical work:
(^Minimum of 1 Paragraph^)
Svetlana is fairly knowledgeable of weapons, having spent several years as an apprentice gunsmith and employee of Izhmash. She uses this knowledge to repair and modify the gear of STALKERs. Unlike many other technicians and traders, Svetlana does not have her equipment and resources smuggled into the zone, as she lacks the connections to make this possible. Instead, she buys damaged and ruined weapons, armor, and supplies from other STALKERs and scavenges anything useful from them for repairing and modifying other gear.
