Constable's Emblem & Seal.

  Strength: Belief In The System
While some join the constables in an effort to further their careers, Vladik is made from the rare stock that still believes justice has a place in this world. He sees morality as a clear case of black and white - and will not be wavered away from enforcement of Imperial law.

  Weakness : Gulliable
Despite working against a cesspool of deception and dishonour, Vladik is willfully blind to the machination and plots of those he would consider his peers or superiors. As such, he refuses to see corruption and greed within his own department.

  Desire : Justice
Vladik rebuffs those who would deal with criminal scum. He opposes arbitrary enforcement of law and takes unsolved cases personally. He will persue the delivery of justice to the detriment of all else.

  Fear : Corruption
Vladik chooses to believe that others share his same passion and commitment for law and order. Despite evidence to the contrary, Vladik refuses to come to terms that the world is full of people who would use their power and position as a public servant to do anything but enforce a sense of justice.

  Regional enforcement of Kaldari Laws (against against commoners) is typically enforced by a team of constables who overlook a jurisdictional area assigned to them. Most tend to work from the city centers, and normally only venture into the more rual areas when their duties actually call for direct intervention and investigation. Constables are tasked with limited powers, but are able to press chargers on commoners themselves - but must refer to their higher ups to move against wealthier classes.

  One of the many constables assigned to The Port City of Rystanburg is Vladik, a middle aged Kaldari man with sunken eyes and a pronounced widow's peak. A veteran constable, Vladik has spent most of life in some form of the Kaldari Armed Forces - first as a patrolman and then as a constable in Rystanburg. While other constables have built reputations around fear and bribery - Vladik instead enforces the letter of the law with an even hand, which has earned him a reputation with the populace as a tough but fair constable.

Tall and lanky, his stature helps him land powerful strikes with the halbert he wields in his enforcement as a constable. He also keeps a small pistol strapped tightly to his belt, a gift given to him by the lord of Rystanburg himself as a reward for his role in solving a murder within the lord's own servants. Vladik holds himself tall and proud, the way only a soldier can - and despite his weathered face and sunken eyes he has a strength and vigor to him that catches many off guard.

One of the longest serving Constables in Rystanburg, Vladik has never recieved much in the way of accolates or promotion due to his tendacy to overlook the political aspects to his position, something Vladik would never openly admit to others.

A widowed father of two, his sons are currently in training to be Patrolmen in Rystanburg themselves, an accomplishment that Vladik holds with deep pride.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Tall and strong, despite the signs of age catching up to him. A lifetime of drill and patrol has left him with various pains and injuries however, and a wound he suffered from a farrow's spear a few years back still causes him pain from time to time.

Facial Features

a round but gaunt face with high cheekbones and a broken nose.

Physical quirks

Tends to rotate his left arm at the shoulder in the cold of the early mornings.

Apparel & Accessories

Typically adorned in the uniform of the Kaldari Armed Forces. Thick heavy fabric to protect agains the cold dressed over in protective but heavy chainmail. The comfort he displays in armour demonstrated just how much of his life he has spent in armour.

Specialized Equipment

A non-regulation pistol strapped to a holster on his left hip (which he has recieved special permission to wield.) It is unusually ornate compared to the rest of his uniform.

Mental characteristics

Employment

Constable currently operating out of The Port City of Rystanburg.

Accomplishments & Achievements

A storied career of succesful patrol and investigations. Most notable was his succesful investigation into the murder of a lord's servant, and his efforts in the unusual Farrow infestations of the spring of 187.

Morality & Philosophy

A true believer in law and order, Vladik will enforce the letter of law with little mercy. This has lead to a mixed reputation built around him, with some painting him as a hard headed tyrant, while others describing him as the only honest man left in Rystanburg.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

The unbiased and fair delivery of justice. Protection of the weak and innocent.

Savvies & Ineptitudes

His gullibility with his peers makes him woefully incapable of dealing with politics. Despite this however, he has demonstrated an aptitude at interrogation and determing truth from lie.

Virtues & Personality perks

Patient. Just.

Vices & Personality flaws

Intolerant. Gulliable.

Social

Social Aptitude

Polite and courteous, Vladik rarely raises his voice outside of the privacy of his own home. Even when in command of a patrol, he rarely barks orders like other commanders and instead relies on the unwavering clarity of deep voice to rally his men.

Wealth & Financial state

A lifetime of servitude has given Vladik a modest by comfortable life. He owns a small detached home in the inner portion of Rystanburg where he raised both of his boys. He has been saving for retirement rather aggressively lately, as he has become increasingly aware of his aging body.
