As this character is now dead, some information is being revealed and marked with this color |
 | CITIZEN DATA STATUS: DEADNAME: Stanislav Krátký CID: #39557 AGE: 28 DOB: 14/04/1993 BORN IN: Czech Republic EDUCATION: None OCCUPATION: CWU Warehouse Manager | PERSONALITY Very cautious around people, usually does not engage in conversation unless necessary, remaining quiet and observant. Tends to stay within a close circle of friends or familiar individuals. Always strives to be friendly and respectful toward others, often caring more about others than himself. LIKES AND INTERESTS Learning new things, planning ahead, spending time with close friends, loves taking care and learning about Vorts. DISLIKES AND AVOIDANCE Dangerous places, conflict or fighting, and being rushed into decisions. |
BACKSTORY  When the fighting ended and the city was eventually rebuilt, he stayed in City 23 with his family for many years. Life was harsh but manageable, and the presence of family gave him the strength to endure. That changed when the city was declared insufficient and its citizens were scheduled for relocation. Stanislav was placed on a transport and separated from his loved ones. It was the last time he ever saw them. During one of the relocation trips, disaster struck. The train he was on derailed violently, throwing passengers into chaos. Stanislav was knocked unconscious after being struck by part of the wreckage. When he awoke, he found himself among strangers in a temporary camp, with no clear answers and no sign of the life he once knew. Despite the injuries and confusion, he pushed on. Each day became a fight for survival, relying only on his determination to carry him forward. Somehow he endured, moving from place to place until eventually finding his way into a new city where his story would continue... Not even then did Stanislav know who or what he was... exploring, even finding a way to meet rebels. However, that was shortly cut as the fear of dying was high... Meeting someone who helped him... told him and helped him to survive  CITY 24 ARRIVALPROMOTION After spending time in City 24, he gradually learned about the people around him and how the city functions. Where are the weaknesses and what can be exploited. He plans once again to ruin and sabotage. Free from the group's influence his desire to destroy slowly changes into something else. What first seemed overwhelming soon became a path of discovery, as he adapted, found new motivation, and managed to endure each day while keeping his head high. Small moments of progress kept him moving forward, and through persistence he found new sources of enjoyment and purpose. One of his goals has already been reached. Becoming a foreman in the CWU warehouse. At that moment the light of his fight against the regime finally went out. He could not continue. It was too much to destroy. Maybe that was not his purpose. Fate wanted him to continue. With the light fading a new hope arrived. This role brought recognition and trust, proving that his dedication had not gone unnoticed. Leadership gave him structure, filled his days with responsibility, and allowed him to set higher standards. Instead of endlessly searching for new work, he now found fulfillment in guiding others and shaping the environment around him. He completely cut himself off from the rebellion group, no longer seeking to destroy, and began shifting his focus elsewhere. Yet he knows his story is not complete. Although he may feel close to his limits, there are still goals left to achieve. The only way forward is to continue proving, both to himself and to others, that he is capable of more. He also remembers those who helped him along the way, knowing he could never have reached this position alone. Their support remains part of his journey, and he carries it with him as he looks to the future.  MASSIVE RELOACTION After witnessing so many fights, having his trust broken by someone very close, living through infestation outbreaks, and risking his life countless times in the middle of them, he still pushed forward and manages to find love... something unexpected, something he could never have planned or calculated. It was absurd to even imagine or search for. His heart opens, as if it had been waiting in silence all along, unaware that this was what it truly desired. He even managed to act as a small detective, solving a crime, only to be rewarded with an assassination attempt involving a grenade. He accepted the fate that he was dying as he lay bleeding on the floor and fading into unconsciousness. Then he woke in a hospital, realizing people had saved him. His coworkers and the doctors had done everything they could to give him a second chance, and that meant more than he could ever put into words. And how did it all fall apart? This was the moment everything struck at once. Forced to steal just to hand over coupons to Civil Protection so he wont be beaten. Climbing a ladder with his arm still in a sling. But that wasn't the worst part. The real breaking point came when the Civil Protection officer pistol safety clicked off behind his head. In that instant, everything went dark. The depression began. He couldn't protect himself and knew things would only get worse. He asked Callway for help... but was cast aside as if he meant nothing. After that, everything only spiraled further down. After all the stress leading up to the massive relocation to Industrial, he began to feel something rare for himself. He felt lucky. And honestly, luck never seemed like something that belonged to him, yet somehow it did. He found someone he could finally care for, someone he could lean on and trust when he needed it most. The feeling had been growing inside him for a long time, becoming stronger until both of them finally spoke from the heart. It was no longer just companionship, but love. The train ride to Industrial might be long, but he knew that with this bond, every moment ahead of them would be worth it. Yet he didn’t know... it would, in fact, become even worse.   SLOWLY LOSING IT ALL . . .There we go, finally arrived in Industrials. This is the first time he has been in such a large place, with so much to explore but also so much to fix. Heading there personally to help everyone rebuild the city is his priority. Putting effort into everything around him and making something out of nothing is a reward in itself. Hell, he has nearly starved multiple times already from working so hard, focusing more on the work than on himself and his needs. Still, he is pushed around by people, made to feel like trash from time to time, and only a few truly know what is happening deep inside Stanislav. Such a shame that he has to go through all that pain… but perhaps in the future you will learn more when reading this. All those units mugging him almost every day for credits, the pain he endured and the beatings he received whenever he refused, changed him deeply inside. He was blackmailed for crimes he had committed before... it was their way of keeping Stanislav under control. He became like a toy for them to use, satisfying their needs with nothing more than a reminder of what he had done. But what crime had Stanislav truly committed? There was a time when his best friend, Perley, started making drugs. It went so far that he even wrote himself a book on how to make them and used them right in front of me. I simply asked someone to bring back the bottle he used so I could find out if it was real. That man refused to help. Stanislav couldn't let it go unnoticed, so he went to a Civil Protection unit, the same one that mugged him daily, and asked if they could just give that man a warning not to do it again... That man was even on his parole, so... what could even go wrong... It ended with a brutal beating and that man being thrown from the third floor of the ration center. He saw the man later being carried into the clinic alive. It had never been Stanislav's intent for him to die, only to be punished for what he done. Yet that incident became the crime he was reminded of every single time, something that would forever mark him and prevent him from ever becoming a true collaborator if charged. For now, he has managed to do things he never thought he could. Slowly but surely, he is trying to lead the whole machine by himself not an easy task, especially now that he has become part of the Combine Engineer Core. Gaining more knowledge about Combine structures helps him face situations that would have crushed him before. And being tagged as a High Value Target? Well… that means something. His life has value, but it also paints a target on his back. Still, there is very little that will stop him, and it won’t happen any time soon. He will continue the fight and return to the City once he has done as much as he can for it. Like every story that begins there must also come a moment when it reaches its end. Two people found each other, opened their hearts and shared a bond that felt almost unbreakable. For a time everything felt right, real and full of meaning.  But it took only one single day to change everything and tear apart what once felt unshakable.Do I miss her? I do, more than words can explain. Every talk we had and every quiet moment that felt safe, all the trust I placed in her was something rare I never thought I would lose. I keep replaying the memories and wondering what could have been if things went differently. It hurts every day but I know I cannot stop here. Life keeps moving even when my heart wants to stay behind. Maybe one day the pain will fade and I will look back and smile instead of ache, remembering not the loss but the warmth we shared. Until then I keep walking through this sector not knowing what waits for me next but hoping that somewhere ahead I will find peace again.  TODAY / NOWDECEASED 6.11.2025    |
RELATIONSHIPS LOVES | ADMIRES | RESPECTS | BEST FRIEND | FRIEND | ACQUAINTANCE | DISTRUSTS | DISLIKES | HATES | DECEASED |
Dough Dimmadom FRIEND | DECEASED The first person who helped me since the day I woke up. Someone who taught me basic survival skills and showed me the way around. He kept me mostly safe, and even though I knew him only for a short time, I will always remember him.
| Perley Schmachding BEST FRIEND The first guy I met in the city or well, the first I spoke to. He motivates me, and I hope the best for him. I’ve watched him slowly chase his dream, becoming a CMU worker and planning a future as a doctor. He’s someone I trust and can ask about anything.
I know what you did at the hospital… All that effort to get there, only to ruin it with stealing? Damn… I’m still not giving up on you, and I’ll help you stand back up. But if you fail me, everything we built together may fall straight down the drain. | Vlada Cheremnykh ACQUAINTANCE Not someone I would normally approach first, but I was introduced to her. She seems okay, though I’m still not sure what to expect. A good person to talk to, nonetheless.
Not much has really changed. I see you from time to time, but it’s hard to reach you since I have a lot of work to do. |
Kenji Hashimoto RESPECTS Thanks to you and your willingness to hire me almost as soon as I arrived, I experienced one of the best moments since coming here. It made me happy, kept me busy, and helped me start working toward my goals. Without that, I’d probably still be roaming the streets and turning into something else entirely.
| Emiyo Marcum FRIEND I consider you a friend. I’ve been slowly learning about your past, piece by piece, and the hate you’ve faced from others. Our first real conversation started during a good moment in the vent, and since then, we’ve ended up working together. I enjoy that and I’m glad we did.
| Yuto Kuwabara FRIEND We talked before you joined the CWU we did a few things together and had some good conversations. Strange things happened and now you're gone from CWU... I wonder what will happen next.
And there we go again... I have no idea where you are... maybe dead, maybe not... I will find out one day. |
Greg Mechmad FRIEND | DISLIKES A nice person who arrived at the CWU Warehouse really fun to talk to, and I liked him as soon as he arrived. We helped each other quietly during shifts and basically just had fun.
Having someone I’ve known for a while in a spot that can lead the group you always wanted? Hell yeah, I can see this working out so well. | Giovanni Accordino ACQUAINTANCE Well, he's the manager of the CWU Warehouse and helps me anytime I have a question. He personally teaches me what to do and how to do things around here. He's someone I can turn to for help, especially when it's something more serious or work related.
| Jessica Chen LOVES | DECEASED At first, I was afraid I might have problems with her when I joined the CWU. But I might have been wrong. I actually like having her around oh... and her cooking is amazing. She genuinely cares about her workers, and these days I feel a lot less stressed when talking to her.
With me being basically in the same position, I feel no stress around her. She is someone I can ask for help with almost anything, and even though I did not expect it, I think we are starting to get along. Our conversations are beginning to feel more like those between friends rather than just two coworkers talking to each other. And yet something happened between us. Something Stanislav never expected. He had those feelings for some time but kept holding them back, always wondering why anyone would even want him in the first place. But look at us now, two people together. Now I can finally rest a little and enjoy the moment before I overwork myself to death. I never promised that I would not get hurt but I will try not to, for you. Thank you for being here and I hope we will stay like this until the very end. You could say that something went wrong... What exactly? I don’t know. The last thing I remember is that she was summoned to the Nexus after being given a collaborator band. What happened after that, I have no idea. Every day it hurts, because this was something I never expected. She refused to tell me anything... why she was called in, what the reason was... and then... it happened. She walked out of the warehouse that day and never came back. |
Asmode Rause DISTRUSTS One of the few people that my character currently dislikes strongly almost to the point of hating him. But soon or later might change, depending what will happen next time we see each other.
After some time passed, I have no bad feelings towards you anymore, it's more... as I don't trust you... I don't mind talking with you but- just keeping it limited. | Alya Kholodova ACQUAINTANCE New transfer to the city into our warehouse, to me some sign of the blessing as we getting quietly along together. Not much to say here at the moment but hey... You're impressing me.
| Varos Atkins RESPECTS We haven’t spoken enough to truly bond, but I do feel respect toward you for giving me the opportunity to grow and lead. Hopefully, that will change one day, and I’ll get the chance to learn more about you.

Hikaru Inoue HATES There is little to something to share with everyone. Sometimes being asshole is some way to go, but trying to force me to do something while you lie during it? Shame on you.
Well, you seemed strange at first, but in a single moment I found myself respecting you - not just because of your position, but because of what you stand for. I can’t find a way to thank you enough. I have no idea what or why you turned around. However, I had that feeling since the beginning. You were acting weird, but you managed to hide it for a moment... before turning into an insurgent. | Ron Shelby Johnson HATES | You stood so close to me… I placed my trust in you, nearly enough to raise you up, to grant you promotion, to help you reach the very sky. Never would I have suspected betrayal from your hands, had I not searched deeply among those who worked beside me. In the end, only two names remained on the list, and I risked everything… and I was right.
Once, I admired you. But in a single heartbeat, all of it shattered. You left me with a scar that will never fade, one that makes trust a bitter burden to carry. | Valeriya Sergeyevna Volkovskaya ADMIRES She is eager to work around the warehouse. She listens to what I need and gets it done. There were a few times I almost considered firing her from the CWU but I do not think that decision is necessary. I trust her with the work even with the few accidents that have happened. Those could happen to anyone. She is one of the few people I would not mind talking to more and learning about her interests. For now I can see the fire burning inside her and the dedication to work. But should I really be the one to kill that hope? No. I may be harsh and even look like an enemy but I do value her and want to give her a chance. She needs time before she achieves more but I see a bright future for her.

Richard Johnson FRIEND | DISLIKES I don’t know why, but I liked you from the very beginning. You’ve been different from the others, and I don’t regret it. You’ve really helped me, and… well, thank you, my friend.
I don't really know what you did... I tried to get one last moment to speak with you, but I wasn’t able to... Sorry, my friend. You were good at heart and helped me in a dark moment. I will remember you. | Elsa Becker DISTRUSTS | DISLIKES I quietly trusted you with a lot of things, managing people, helping others, and actually following the guides. A person like you I would expect to follow the rules and not go beyond them. However, you stepped over the line. I’m still trying to find a reason to like you but, hey, you’re not giving me a chance. Sure, I’ll give up soon. I don’t think we will be able to talk normally again after you fucked up and now blame it on me. But I see what you are now. If you can, you’ll step over the line and twist your funny reality in order to shift the blame on others. I’ll be watching in silence.
| Minty RESPECTS | FRIEND With the first moment we saw each other, I was skeptical. I needed to satisfy my own need. Having a vortigaunt in our unit… how could I not turn this into a competition? CMU has one, so I needed one as well!
But time moved forward. I always wanted to see something special. And I ended up seeing more than I ever expected. Something that warmed my heart. Something I will never forget. The trust I was given means a lot to me. This was one of my hidden goals to reach and I achieved it. Thank you. |
Uriel RESPECTS | FRIEND | DECEASED Another vortigaunt in my life, I did wanted to give you special treatment. Make you feel like a home... not make it your last... Forgive me for the failure...
| Sophie Beckett FRIEND We did it... we have found the person and with your help... I trust you to lead my legacy... I want you to continue and not end yourself.
| Marcus Cross RESPECTS | FRIEND We had time together even before you become CCA. I would say this was amazing times before you got busy and had to switch the mask. Fighting against your own feelings and actually fighting the loss you experienced. You decided to open up and help me as well. Even the last moment of my life I was so glad to see you, meet you in person... Shaking the hand and smiling at you was my way of thanking for everything. Thank you for being there for me and well... I'll be always watching.
|
Did I missed you? Just ask me and I'll add you. |
