Background
Before Rogozhin's father was face down in a mass grave, he was a good person. Or so everyone used to say.
In those days, nobody in that remote Saskatchewan town yet knew the name Pyotr Volkovi, the man who would one day bring hell and prosperity to their frosted wasteland. It was a waiting grave where slighted Vory went to rot in shameful reassignment, a town of fleeting ghosts
[Father opposes the Vory? Tries to split away from them? Killed. Rogozhin left in the cold. Vory take over the little studio apartment maybe? He's followed people from the circus before, watched them whip animals and take them to the back and put bullets in their head when they became too lame to work. Watched them be thrown into massive piles and burned to ash, "so they won't come back."]
[They leave, come back with a body bag ready to take his father, but he's ready with an offer. He'll dig his father's grave and burn him there, if they give him soup and let him stay.]
[He becomes a grave digger for them at the circus, doing the same each day. Horrific business, but he is a tool, and this is what he must do to stay in their shed as the White Vory utterly claim this town. Over years, they dabble in biorigging to fake unbelievable performances, though they need someone willing to not only command them, but to jump in for it to be as realistic as possible for their discerning clientele. Again, Rogozhin volunteers. All that is on his mind is to become useful so as not to be discarded. He is a tool using tools, wearing these still-breathing beasts as fur to shield him from the cold. As a teenager, he accepts an RCC implant and learns to ride the smuggled STIRRUPs they can get their hands on. When he is not performing, he is again digging graves. He is forcing animals whose bodies he experiences as his own into cages, bleeding and hungry, and burying eyes he had himself seen through when they fall. You discard tools when they are broken, after all.]
[He spends a lot of time there at the graves. He imagines himself in their corpses, still seeing behind their eyes. And with time, he eventually sees horrible and rotting spirits laying claim to that cloyingly spoiled meat, those in large piles he cannot incinerate in time. He is barely afraid, and commiserates with the phantoms. He tells them he too has seen the world from behind those eyes, and in this, they are bonded on pleasant terms.]
[Nonetheless, this too, he believes, can be a tool. He does not question the why, but merely the how. He studies such things in the rays of fleeting light before he is interred in his lukewarm cubby.]
[Zhizn Volkovi is a princess, doesn't much like her - she is a tool in the way a Stradivarius violin is an instrument, coddled and caged and ideally unscuffed. When she escapes, he sees an opportunity to move beyond his station. With time, he will graduate from being a tool entirely, if he can use the ones he has well enough.]
Narrative Significant Qualities
Positive
- Everything Is a Tool to Those Who Grasp It - (Spectral Warden / Restricted Gear [CAST]) - When you are born into the lesser caste of a brutal syndicate, you very swiftly learn the value of your life, and especially the lives of those around you. All creatures, Man, Beast, and Spirit alike, are tools to be honed and used in the climb toward freedom. The only way to not be used is to use in turn.

Assensing Table
Saint's essence is somewhat thin and does not extend far beyond her body, though reads as searing hot near her skin. The light around her twists and warps with the heat of her aura, and the audible crack of flames roars within her.

Note
I am completely fine with long term consequences for my characters, as long as it doesn't feel unannounced or forced. Long term changes to a character make more opportunities for interesting roleplay, and so don't be afraid to give them out if they are deserved.
