Moar CR

[zhuludovi.livejournal.com]

Daisy's fifth. Phew. I'll try to keep this short. This is Georgi "Jimmy" Kozlek, Four of Clubs.

1) Thirty years old, has been on the Deck for six years. Originally from Bulgaria, but lived in Vienna for several years prior to coming here. Speaks many languages, mainly Bulgarian, English, German and Hungarian. He's six foot five, way up there on the Too Tall spectrum, and a congenital amputee; missing his left arm from just below the elbow. It doesn't affect his work overmuch. Which is this--

2) He runs a farm on the outskirts of Club lands. It's mainly poultry, some sheep, and of course them lovely vegetables and fruit and elderflowers. He likely press-gangs people (especially kiddos) into helping him out during heavy seasons. Lambing soon!

3) Generally speaking, a warm and jovial type, though farm life is an education in tough love. If the drama or workload of the castles ever gets too much, his farmhouse and barns are open for anyone to crash in. He's a good listener and good at keeping a cheerful face on even in times of dire non-cheer. Extremely hard-working and dedicated, and of course owns a buttload of animals. Dogs, cats, geese, you name it. Just don't get too attached to the livestock...

4) I'm thinking he had his heart broked a few years back. Any takers? Also, pre-Deck, he spent some time smuggling various Illegal Things across the border between Austria and Hungary. I'm not sure there's anyone relevant hanging around, but hey, you never know when it comes to past CR.

Jimmy was never properly involved in the gangs and whatnot. He was one of those country boys who came to the city with few skills not pertaining to farming and went into heavy lifting and ended up with the "I just have to take this over the border? Barely illegal then. It's just traveling really" train of thought. So I think there was probably never any reason for her to kill him, even if he did underestimate. He probably never even knew enough for bean-spilling to be a risk, except for the people he worked with.

He did smarten up over the years though. Do you want the heart-crushing to have happened on or off Deck? Either way's cool. XD

One or two alpacas, maybe. For the wool, though, Sophie dear, not the cute. :| Farm, not a petting zoo!

Whichever way you want. I will have better ideas after coffee this AM. If they met off Deck he may never have realized exactly what she did. Would that have contributed to the heart crushing?

Sophie points out that alpaca and llamas both make wonderful guard animals for any herd. (But alpaca are cuter and their wool more desirable.) Also...cute.

Pooossibly. I'm still hashing out that stage of his life (can't quite decide how involved/violent/what-have-you he was) but if she was just there to keep an eye on the border for a few months or was actually undercover to dig up a mole or something there could be that whole. IT WAS ALL A LIE! thing. XD But I don't know if that's the sort of work she was into.

Fine. Some guard alpacas for the flock of sheep. Though the guard goose army do a pretty nifty job. Just don't spoil them too much, okay? Or they'll turn into big attention-seeking babies-- oh too late. :|
