Appearance: Evgeny is a very slender - perhaps 'skinny' would be a better word to use - man. This helps disguise the fact that he is not very tall, standing at perhaps 5'8", until he is placed next to an object of scale, another person for example. His face is heart-shaped, and his cheeks still have a bit of childish plumpness to them, giving him the appearance of being younger than he actually is. He has full lips, a pointed jaw, and high cheekbones, adding a slightly feminine beauty into his appearance as well.
His hair is something that Evgeny treasures. It is a shade of brilliant red, and, despite what others will say, its color is completely natural. He has been growing it out ever since he turned eight, and his hair now reaches his waist thanks to years of carefully taking care of it. It is slightly wavy, something which always amazes people, since most believe that since his hair is so long, its weight will straighten it. The weight of his hair did play part in its texture; Evgeny's hair is normally curly, one reason why he grew it out so long.
Evgeny's eyes are dark hazel. Perhaps not an interesting color, but Evgeny likes it. His hair occasionally affects the color of his eyes as well, often making them appear more red than they actually are. He has surprisingly long, dark eyelashes, which are often darkened even more by the amount of mascara he wears. His skin is fairly pale, and he often is wearing a thin layer of concealer and foundation on his face, making it appear that he has perfect skin.

Basically, anything dark and gothic. He always has a rosary in the form of a silver cross hanging from a thin silver chain on, and refuses to take it off. It has not left his neck more than twice in his life; he'll wear it even when doing photoshoots for fashion companies.
Personality: Evgeny is a very positive, friendly man. He is incredibly kind and caring, and always willing to help others. Incredibly optimistic, he is the sort of person who is able to always see the bright side of a situation. His optimism is the type that bleeds over to everyone, and it is difficult to feel pessimistic around him. He uses this to his benefit, and is always the first person to try and cheer someone up.
'Eccentric' would probably be a good word to use to describe him. Half of the things which Evgeny will say make absolutely no sense, and the other half take a good deal of interpretation to understand. He will often ask confusing, nonsensical questions, such as 'how much lava and dead beetles would you exchange for a brownie?', purely to see people's confused reactions. It's almost like he makes a game of trying to find out what the most confusing question he can ask is.
What people don't see is that Evgeny often struggles with staying happy. He may be incredibly optimistic for the most part, but sometimes he can be so depressed that he can't even get out of bed. He often feels incredibly insecure, and tends to doubt himself. These thoughts are ones he tries to push away, but, sometimes, he is just completely unable to. Evgeny feels very bad about leaving his parents behind, and tends to blame himself for them kicking him out of the house, even if it isn't his fault in any way at all.
Thoughts on situation: Maybe it's not a perfect situation, but it certainly could have been worse. That just about sums up Evgeny's opinion on the situation. Sure, he was thrown out of his house and disowned, but, at least he is still alive and in a general state of healthiness. He doesn't blame his parents for their actions, knowing that they were taught their entire lives to believe gays were bad, and doesn't want to change their beliefs, knowing it would be impossible. He firmly maintains the belief that life gets better, and, that, no matter what, his life will always improve in the end.
Brief History: Evgeny was born in the middle of nowhere in north-western Alaska. His parents had just moved there from Russia due to his father's job changing location, and he lived there for most of his childhood. Evgeny knew that this was just not the place for him to live.
Throughout his childhood, he always had dreams of fame. His parents, who were always rather pessimistic, told him that he wouldn't ever become famous, and that he should just give up his dreams. Evgeny refused to do so, and soon found his reward.
A famous fashion designer had come to the town where Evgeny lived when Evgeny was fifteen in order to do a photo shoot for her new collection of winter-themed clothes. Evgeny met her one day in the small restaurant where he worked as a busboy. The woman was intrigued by his androgynous beauty, and offered for him to take part in the photoshoot. This was a dream come true for Evgeny, and he accepted without a second of hesitation. This was one of the main highlights of his life.
After this sudden occurrence, though, Evgeny's life went back into the doldrums. Nothing important happened, at least not until he was seventeen. About to graduate high-school with amazing grades, Evgeny was on cloud nine. He had been given a full-ride scholarship to the California Institute of Fashion, and, even better yet, had a boyfriend who he loved from the bottom of his heart. His relationship with the male, an eighteen year old named Anton, was secret due to the fact that Evgeny's parents did not approve of gays at all, but that didn't stop Evgeny and Anton.
His life quickly tumbled down from the high point it was at shortly before the graduation. Anton had invited Evgeny to the prom, an occurrence which would be historical, since the school had never had a gay couple go to the prom together before, and Evgeny decided this would be the perfect time to come out to his parents. Needless to say, they were not particularly supportive. To put it more clearly, they threw Evgeny out of the house with all of his belongings, and cut off all ties to him. Evgeny tried to seek refuge at Anton's house, only to find that Anton had already replaced him with another lover once he realized that Evgeny's parents would not support their relationship. With nowhere else to go, Evgeny headed to the house of the support group, hoping to find refuge there.
