| Bio: |  Full Name: Nikolai Torbjørn Jorgensen Nicknames: Niko (from his cousin), Kolya (from his mother) Gender: Male Species: Were-polar bear (born) PB: Alexander Skarsgård Age and DOB: 66 years old - born August 25, 1968 Character Description: In either form, Nikolai is a large and commanding man. Standing at 6’4” and powerfully muscled, his presence is hard to ignore. His Norwegian heritage is strikingly evident in his intense blue eyes and pale blond hair. In his bear form, Nikolai stands a full 9ft. tall and weighs over 900lbs. In both his man and bear shapes, Nikolai has two obvious scars – old bullet wounds – one of which passes through his left shoulder and another in his right side below the ribs.  Personality: Nikolai is generally a friendly and easygoing man, but his goodwill doesn’t extend to vampires. Nikolai shares his cousin Bjørn’s intense hatred of them and anyone who associates with them. Towards humans he feels a sort of benevolent pity for what he views as their total inability to properly manage their own affairs. Nikolai is not exactly a lycan supremacist, but he believes that weres should govern over humans for their own good as their lot could only improve from their current position of slavery under the vampires. Background:  Nikolai was born and raised in Appleton, Wisconsin by a Norwegian father and a Russian mother, but that wasn’t the oddest thing about the couple. His father Thorfin was a were-polar bear and his mother Katja was a werewolf which would have shocked their human neighbours if they had ever known. From the time Nikolai was very young, he waited eagerly for the day when he too would be able to become a bear like his father. His favourite times were the yearly trips when his cousin Bjørn would visit and the entire family would go up to Alaska where they could embrace their true natures and lose themselves in the empty wilderness where there were no humans to hide from. Eventually, Nikolai became old enough to make the change himself and so his true instruction began under his father and cousin who taught him to fight both as a bear and as a man, taught him all the dangers and weaknesses of a vampire, and – most importantly – how to kill them. It was then that his father told him the story of his aunt and uncle and what had happened to Bjørn’s family and made him swear that he would never speak of it to his cousin. Young as he was, Nikolai was outraged and heartbroken. He idolised his cousin, was a close to him as a brother, and from that day forward he never needed more reason to hate vampires.  Perhaps because of his bear nature, Nikolai was always happier up north, so when he was ready for university, he decided to attend Yukon College in Whitehorse and obtained degrees in Northern Studies and Renewable Resources Management. While he was there, he met and fell in love with Marie Moses, a Tagish werewolf from the nearby town of Carcross, and when his family moved back to Norway, Nikolai decided to stay. Together with Marie, Nikolai opened a bar that also doubled as an unofficial gathering place for the sizeable lycan community of Carcross. For years, Nikolai and Marie lived together happily, the lycan community existing secretly and peacefully alongside the human, but Marie often spoke to Nikolai of her desire for a world where their children would not have to grow up ashamed, hiding what they were. When the meteors fell and in their wake lycans all over the world revealed themselves, it seemed like after so much destruction they would finally have the chance to live Marie’s dream, but sadly it was not to be. The human inhabitants of Carcross, horrified to suddenly discover monsters in their midst masquerading as their friends and neighbours, lashed out at the lycans. One night, Nikolai woke to the smell of smoke. Vandals had set fire to the bar and thick smoke was rising up through the floor to their home above. Nikolai shook Marie awake and told her to get out. The downstairs was already ablaze, and shifting into his bear shape, Nikolai barrelled through the flames and out into the night. The sight that met his eyes outside was like a scene from a nightmare. A dozen other homes were in flames and in the street humans with rifles hunted down lycans and shot them mercilessly. A haze of rage fell over Nikolai and he roared deafeningly and struck at the nearest man, felling him with a massive paw and shredding him with claws and teeth. Two bullets struck his thick hide, but he barely noticed. He tore through the streets killing every human he encountered until his white fur was matted with blood and the churned up snow was red and the guns fell silent.  Nikolai returned to the burned-out shell of the bar, and as other lycans began to gather in confusion, he looked around for Marie… but she never came. When he realised the truth – that she was dead – he wished that the humans who had killed her were alive again so that he could tear them apart a second time. Knowing that they could not keep what had happened in Carcross a secret, and knowing that soon enough other humans would come to finish what these ones started, Nikolai gathered up the remaining lycans and, in their animal forms, he led them into Kluane National Park where they could hide in the deep forest and be safe. For months, they lived like fugitives until they determined that it was finally safe to return to their abandoned homes. But Nikolai couldn’t bear returning to the site of such tragedy, so he left, heading south in the vain hope of finding his cousin Bjørn. It was an incredible distance, and during his arduous travels Nikolai met up with several bands of roving lycans, but he found most of them vicious and bestial, glorying in their basest aspects, and he didn’t stay long with them. Where he encountered pockets of humanity, he avoided them, and where he found vampires, he killed them. Finally, at the end of a long, long road, he came to Las Vegas.
