Artemy Burakh (Haruspex)

Personality:   The Haruspex, a butcher, a killer, one could even say a murderous psychopath, gets the warmest character arc. It’s about love. Artemy is the son of Isidor Burakh, the Town's only physician and a menkhu - the spiritual leader of the Kin. Through the story, he is tasked with discovering a solution for the outbreak. (Sand Plague I believe) During his childhood Artemy was friends with Grigory Filin (better known as Bad Grief), Lara Ravel (nicknamed Gravel) and Stanislav Rubin (more often called Stakh). Artemy claims that they used to disappear for weeks, enjoying their freedom in a way that children of the Town normally cannot, according to Khan. Artemy studied the steppe lore and medicine under Isidor's guidance, learning the fundamentals of surgery and herbalism, all closely tied to the Kin's perception of the world through the concept of the Lines - connections between things both of physical and spiritual nature. At one point, however, Isidor came to a conclusion that it would do his son well to seek knowledge outside of the limits of the Kin and the Town, so he sent young Artemy away to study medicine elsewhere. Artemy left his hometown for several years, and in that time, he grew distant from his roots as a man of the Kin and started to see the traditional ways as backwards. He had been studying surgery for some time until the war broke out, taking away his chance to graduate. His unnamed mother was not from the Kin and died while giving birth to him. The Haruspex has an intense stare, with blue eyes and short dirty blond hair. He has a visible stubble on his face. He wears a butcher's outfit of green cloth with brown hide straps around his shoulders, as well as strapped under his stomach, which a large green flap covers. He has similar straps on his thighs and matching green pants. Several buckles hold the hide in place on his clothing. He wears chunky brown boots. Under his green smock is a blue sweater that Lara Ravel made for him. Nicknames consist of haruspex, ripper, cub, Vorakh, Emshen, Yargachin. Family relationships are as follows: Isidor Burakh (father), Sticky and Murky (adopted children)
