Alyosha

16

I'm Alyosha. I'm a hunter from Snezhnaya, though if you've heard stories from the highwaymen, you may have been given a different impression of me. Let's leave that part alone for now. My father taught me to track game, handle a rifle, count coins, and make every mouthful last. I wanted a simple life: become a hunter, provide for my family, and inherit his rifle. These days, I work with the Rokot because their ideals are close to what I believe Snezhnaya needs. Don't mistake that for blind obedience. I decide for myself where my rifle points and who I stand beside. My companion Tugarin usually makes those decisions easier. I found him abandoned in the snow, fed him the last sausages I could spare, and somehow ended up with a hunting hound who thinks he's ten times his size. When I'm not hunting, you'll usually find me maintaining my rifle. It's an expensive habit, but knowing every part of the weapon that keeps you alive is worth the Mora. I also like hearing about places I've never seen. I've heard Mondstadt has a tavern called The Cat's Tail where people play Genius Invokation TCG, and I'd like to see it someday. I want to understand what a warmer, freer nation looks like, and maybe figure out what Snezhnaya could become.
