Description
Ptolovich stands at 6'4" with wide shoulders and a heavy frame of working muscle. His skin is weathered and tanned while his hair is cut short in a military style flattop and is ash gray, having gone so early on in life. What sometimes disturbs people is that his eyes are the color of the cold, gray, unforgiving skies of Siberia.
Background
Early Years
Alexei Ptolovich was born Pitr Mikhail Ivannovich (PETE-er me-KYLE i-VAHN-o-vich) in Volkovo, Moskovskaya oblast, USSR to Nikolai Rasputin (NEE-ko-li ras-PYU-tin) and Elena Viktoriya (eh-LAY-na veek-TORE-ee-ya) Ivannovich. He has a younger brother, Dimitri Averiy (dee-MEE-tree ah-VEHR-ee) and a younger sister, Illianya Zoya (ee-LEE-ahn-yah ZOY-ya). The family lived together in a farm where each contributed to their daily lifestyle. Ptolovich learned to repair the family tractor from his father, and grew both large and strong from the physical labor required of him. He was full of life and like many good soviets, he had a strong loyalty to his country. Often times he could be found playing with his younger siblings, though he was always cautious enough to keep from hurting them. Above all, Ptolovich loved his family.
In addition to being a strong and loving brother, Ptolovich was found to be a bright student. Graduating a semester early from School 2 in Volkovo, he followed by applying for acceptance into the Frunz Military Academy. He wasn't convinced he'd get it, but on January 31, 1974, he received a letter of acceptance confirming his appointment to the academy. His family was extraordinarily proud of him, and Ptolovich swore to his father that he would not disappoint him.
Military Career
Ptolovich excelled in his studies and duties at the academy, as many knew he would. His skills expanded and he became well known for his marksmanship and quick thinking. He graduated in the top 5% of his class and had secured his own regiment to command due to his quick, logical thinking. Once in the field, he showed his leadership to be exemplary, his judgments always precise and unwavering, and his wits served him well. He proved to be an excellent field commander as well, often leading platoons under his command directly in the field. On May 18, 1980, he saved countless lives with his quick thinking to avoid a live explosive that had been laid in the camp that his platoon had been resting at. He was given command of a second platoon as their commander had chosen to go missing prior to the discovery of the explosive.
The following day, Ptolovich was recognized for exemplary performance not only for the previous day's results, but also for the previous 2 years of military service to the party. On May 30, 1980, just 11 days after his performance recognition, he received a transfer letter. This was not unusual, as often he was overseeing transfers into or out of his command. This one, however, effected his own transfer from his command to the Special Operations Division should he accept the position. Without delay, he put things in motion to insure that everything would be handled when he left his command position and informed his family of the new position he'd be taking.
He made the move to Moscow and was put through an intense and rigorous battery of tests to identify his strongest competencies. They concluded with him being well suited to a number of positions: reconnaissance, sniper, analyst, tactical coordinator and a local director. Ptolovich settled on sniper, which seemed to please the officer responsible for completing the assignment.
