After finding out generic names for Russian people online, I decided to name my character; "Viktor Vitalya". The reason for this is that it sounds very Russian, so people will know his nationality as soon as they hear his name. The story behind Viktor is that his parents died while he was very young, and he grew up in a poor part of Russia having to fend for himself. I will be able to show this by the environment in which Viktor lives, and the way he acts and dresses.
Although Viktor lives in a poor area and hasn't had much help from his country in terms of helping him live, he is incredibly patriotic.
This is mostly down to the fact that Russia is the only place he has ever truly known, and he doesn't fully understand that there are nicer places to live. As such, Viktor feels an obligation to fight for his country in the "New War", but doesn't want to die.
This inner-conflict will be the main focus of this film.
Here are the notes I made on Viktor's character:
