a lot of text!! that info about my golden kamuy oc! (there can be mistakes sorry, also it's like some "waves of thoughts" )
name is Riota
in general he has three names and he himself is German by nationality
the first name is German, Isaac Muller (in the first version there was a Schlosser, but I decided to change it because I wanted a big reference to the person from whom I came up with it)
the Russian name he took upon moving to Russia: Boris Belov
and Japanese Ryota
based on Siegfried Müller who was known for his "devilish smile" and was himself a brutal mercenary in African countries
Ryota himself is also a mercenary who is known to a sufficient part of the cities of Hokkaido, where he mainly created his reputation as a ruthless and cold-blooded killer for money
Isaac lived in a small German village (I haven’t chosen one specifically here yet, I think to tie all the events together) in a family that was not
very rich, but had enough to live on
mother died when Isaac was 5 years old
after the death of his wife, the father became very strict towards his son and showed little love or tenderness, starting to raise him in strict discipline and wanted his son to stay in the village itself and help his fellow villagers work in the fields
father knew how to write and read, which he taught him at an early age, so he could outstrip many children in the village at least in this sense
the mother died of illness and various rumors spread throughout the village, which they heard and the children began to bully Isaak; subsequently, in one of the skirmishes, Isaak was seriously wounded in the eye
Father cared little about this and all he could do was find a doctor who diagnosed that the eye could not be restored and Isaac would never be able to see with it again
it hit him pretty hard
at a certain point, rumors spread throughout the village about Isaac himself, regarding his eyes, which were brightened up with notions that he was sick like his mother and was completely contagious, which forced his peers to avoid him more than to bully him, but did not get rid of the latter
in one of the skirmishes, Isaak decided to use rumors in his favor and began to intimidate the offenders that he would infect them, which of course frightened the not very educated children and gave Isaak a sign that now he could stand up for himself at least this way
Soon Isaak began to threaten his peers more and more, adding that he could deprive them of their eyes if they did not stop.
at that moment he became really harmful and embittered in part and the former timidity and fear began to disappear (in the future this will play a strong role in his relationship with other people)
the older Isaac became, the more he dreamed of leaving the village because he didn’t see any prospects here
he really wanted to see other countries, and if he did live, he wanted to live in a city where there were more opportunities
These ideas diverged from father, for which Isaak received home more than once
however, having reached an older age (I’m also thinking about this for the time being in connection with other events), he treats his desires more decisively and declares that he is leaving whether his father wants it or not
father wanted to object and hit Isaak, but this time Isaak fought back, hitting his father with his fist; he falls and hits his head on the edge of the table
Isaak collects his things in a hurry and only glances briefly at the body of his father, blood accumulating at his temple
he didn’t want to kill him and at that moment he didn’t think about it, all he could think about was that he just hit himself and would wake up and now he had to run no matter the cost to him
for a certain time he moves between German cities (I will also look at the dates, because he grew up around the end of the 19th century when Bismarck united Germany)
Isaak decides to leave for Russia because he heard about it from his neighbors
he was really interested in seeing what was there and, moreover, just staying in the new conditions since Germany did not give in to his desires
in one of the cities he found a person who taught him basic knowledge of Russian since although Isaak spontaneously planned to go there, he still prepared
he moved like a hare just during the move, he nevertheless decided to glue a bandage on his eye, because all the time before he had covered it with ordinary cloth
the first bandage was not made of very good material, but he was happy with such a little thing that he made himself
first of all he comes to St. Petersburg
(initially there was a slightly different option, but now I’m thinking about making it more logical)
here he moves from one workplace to another, but this is how he finds new acquaintances and establishes certain connections (in general, there were also a lot of Germans here)
he meets a weapons collector who was a very compassionate and lonely person, finding Izaak’s situation and his story very tragic, and out of the kindness of his heart, decides to help him and partly takes guardianship over the young Isaak
this man begins to tell Isaac a lot about the weapons that he received about the beauty of battles and the valor of soldiers
Isaak is very impressed by the stories of the trustee, especially the expression with which he tells it is that he gradually develops a love for weapons and, in addition, a genuine interest (the expression of a collector is deeply deposited in Riota’s consciousness, which will become a trait of his character, then this will especially manifest itself in his behavior)
the collector even begins to teach him to shoot (with one eye this is not so easy) but Isaak’s interest and desire play into his hands
they develop quite a trusting relationship and maybe partly parental, because the collector was lonely and found in Isaak something like a son whom he never had and never will
he places Isaak through personal connections in Krondshtat where Isaak enters service in the navy
here he takes on a new Russian name, Boris Belov, to make it easier to communicate with his colleagues
During all this time, Boris diligently improved his conversational Russian skills, but still wrote not competently, but at the level of a foreigner who knows the language not so badly but not well enough either
in his service, Boris is increasingly passionate about military affairs and weapons in particular
still in his free time he visits the collector and begins to study the various calibers and their intricacies of use
at this stage, Boris begins to develop ideas for making money
firstly, he wanted to connect it with the shooting
he finds the most understandable and simple way to connect money and weapons in murders for hire
(old sketches)
here he begins his career as a mercenary but is quite inept because he didn’t shoot at people
he did not try to aim high and deal with influential people
it was the first experience
It was during this period of time that Boris became further and further away from moral values and the value of human life, questions about which had long since begun to be raised in Russia at that time
The Russo-Japanese War is about to begin, which is what the collector is talking about with Boris
he admires Asian culture (in general, the attraction to such exotic countries was just popular in Russia), in particular guns and other things, and urgently asks Boris to go to Japan (with which there will soon be a war, which the man himself is aware of from personal connections) and bring him several models for his collection
Boris cordially agrees and even begins to get excited about it, but what comes to the fore for him is the opportunity to use weapons and develop his skills
if Boris goes to the front he can do it without breaking the law
Boris does not end up at the very beginning of the war, but only when the front lines have formed only then does he enter the service
here he really finds his place and hones his skills
he was never passionate about this war
During the entire time he lived in Russia, Boris fell in love with this country and its traditions, but was never able to become an adherent of the culture of tsarism
he did not fight for the fatherland, for his homeland for the tsar, he fought for his own benefit
It was here that Boris distinguished himself with excellent shooting from a machine gun, which his comrade-in-arms noted that despite the fact that in general you could hit someone with a machine gun, Boris “shot with it especially accurately and practically”
he tried himself with shotguns and rifles, whenever possible he tried to learn secrets from experienced fighters and took note of everything
the love for fire only grew in him
there were times when Boris killed soldiers on his side
this happened in the forests if the soldier was alone, he shot at him from behind the trees to hone his skills from a long distance
he really didn’t care who to kill right now
the stage of the war became the final point for him when he lost and lost his conscience and guilt for this
stopped thinking about it and stopped being tormented by doubts
it was something he liked, something he wanted to do
but obviously not at the front
at a certain point, he finds an opportunity and leaves the combat zone, going to Japan, namely to the island of Hokkaido, after which no one heard about him except that he was called a deserter and a traitor to his homeland
here he takes the name Riota and begins his real career as a mercenary, having previously been a soldier and an aspiring weapons lover
his orders and hires are becoming larger and his name is being talked about more and more in certain circles
he's really starting to gain popularity as a thug and a great weapons expert
In addition to his thoughtfulness, he was distinguished by the fact that he was good at setting up mass murders, which was quite difficult
but even here he developed certain methods of work
violent torture did not bring him pleasure or frustration, so he never fulfilled requests to mock the victim before death, which very offended and sophisticated customers could ask for
he did everything quickly
it is worth saying that he truly became a master of his craft and if the orders concerned children, women, old people, not a single muscle on his body trembled and there was no feeling of pity in him that could stop him
he did not show that human weakness that anyone else in his place could have done
gradually people begin to recognize him and by his smile they begin to call him by the same name “a mercenary with a devilish smile” (again a reference to Müller’s Congo)
Having started to explore Japan, he also learns Japanese
he knows it worse than Russian and German (he speaks Russian without an accent)
in Japanese he can make semantic errors and sometimes he himself does not understand what is being said to him
Ryota can say something completely wrong, so the Japanese can relatively often lose the logic of a conversation
contacts the seventh division only because of tsurumi who pays him money as a mercenary
he does not have much contact with its members, however, almost everyone evokes contempt and disrespect in him, which is manifested in his openly boorish behavior towards the soldiers
(I'll still be refining it)
thank u! :)
