Name: Nicolai Yakanov
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Appearance: The first impression one gets from Nicolai is that of a serial killer. He is tall and thin, with eyes so they're almost black, although different lighting seems to change the color sometimes. His dirty-blond hair is wild and reaches to his shoulders. He often forgets to shave, so his face usually has a few days worth of growth on it. His face holds no expression, nor do his eyes. Nicolai almost always dresses in dark colors; usually this color is black. He typically wears boots, jeans, a t-shirt, and either a leather jacket or a trench coat.
Personality: Nicolai is a cold man. He buries any emotion he is feeling so deep that even those closest to him can't see it. Nicolai is almost completely consumed by the his missions, whatever they may be, devoting nearly ever waking moment to them. When not actively pursuing a goal, he studies and researches endlessly in an effort to gain some sort of advantage over his faceless enemies. Aside from brining irreparable harm to the few people he finds time to care about, there is nothing he will not do to accomplish is goals.
Biography: Nicolai's life wasn't exactly a picnic. His father abandoned the family when Nicolai was 6. His mother, a school teacher, worked two jobs to keep her four children from starving to death. Nicolai and his brother, only a year older, raised their two younger siblings on their own, since they were basically orphans.
Nicolai's entire family was infested during the course of the invasion, and they all met their deaths in various ways. His mother was killed by Visser Three in a rage over a minor incident. His two younger siblings were killed when the Animorphs destroyed the Yeerk pool. Nicolai's older brother was freed just before the end, enlisted in the army, and died in the diversionary attack the Animorphs launched against the Pool ship.
Once things became public, Nicolai became obsessed with the Animorphs, halfway blaming them and halfway grateful. After the war, he devoted his life to doing what small things he could to help other people who were hurt by the war, but met with little success. He became an alcoholic. When SPECTER faked his death by suicide, his few acquaintances weren't surprised. No one asked any questions. Nicolai disappeared from the face of the earth without anyone batting an eye..

How they were recruited:
Nicolai woke up when someone shook his shoulder. With an effort, he pulled his head off of the table and looked around. The bar was disturbingly empty. The only other person there was a man in a suit standing next to him. "Can I help you?" Nicolai muttered.
The man sat down across the table from him. "I am going to be blunt with you because you are in no state to see through subterfuge. I am here to offer you what you want."
Nicolai looked around. "This bar isn't filled with topless women and you don't look like you're carrying a briefcase with ten million dollars and a time machine, so I don't really see what you can do for me."
"You want to make things right. You want to make sure that nothing like the Yeerk invasion ever happens again. I am offering you the chance to do just that."
Nicolai was starting to get a little nervous now. "Who are you?"
"An irrelevant question. I am a man you will never see again if you turn down this opportunity. That is all you need to know."
"What...what do you want me to do?"
"I represent an organization called SPECTER, a covert organization within your government. We want to do the same thing you do: ensure that nothing like the invasion never happens again. Earth must deal with new threats, and we need men who are willing to combat them. Do you understand?"
"But what would I have to do?" Nicolai repeated.
"First, you will need to disappear. Then, you will be given the power to morph. We will send you to a new location with a new identity. You will do whatever must be done to keep your planet safe."
"Disappear, huh?" Nicolai looked around at the bar. "And leave all this behind? Sure, count me in. I've got nothing to leave behind anyway."
The man nodded and handed him an envelope. "In here you will find all you need for your new identity. Your old life is over. From this day forward, you are an agent of SPECTER. Your name will e Nicolai Yakanov."
Preferred Job: Circus clown!
