Yuri
of the House of Kerensky
Being part of the genetic legacy of the most prestigious Bloodheritage the Clans acknowledge has formed Yuri more than anything else.
Appearance/ Personality:
At nearly 6'6", Yuri’s size gave quickly birth to the joke that, with Kerensky being a general Bloodright, an error occurred in the wombs and he got Elemental instead of Mechwarrior genes. Certainly reinforcing this semi-rumour was the fact that the field of combat he most excels in is Unarmed Combat.
Once upon a time 300 years ago Yuri would have been called a perfect posterboy for Star League recruitment posters. Accenting his handsomeness are his icy-blue eyes and his whitish-blond hair, which is just long enough to be kept in (small) ponytail. Yuri is usually wearing the somewhat formal grey leathers of the Wolf Clan.
Quite a contrast to many of his impulsive sibkin, Yuri seems to lack the overwhelming inner fire propelling most members of the Warrior Caste forward, most notably among them the temperamental Cherish. Often criticized for this and his seeming lack of emotions (seen as part of his "elemental heritage"), Yuri usually counters with "While I do have emotions, I am simply not ruled by these, as I am able to control them." In fact, all of this goes far to mask a coldly calculating mind, never overly concerned with short time successes, but planning far into the future.
Calm and composed seem describe his personality best. Never holding grudges, he treats 'friend and foe' alike in the same friendly and yet distanced way. What little spare time Yuri has, he usually spends either practising his martial arts or studying Clan history, tradition and customs. However, he applies his considerable knowledge in these matters in ways that make the Sibko trainers extremely uncomfortable: A master of the Batchall, Yuri will twist and bend the traditions and customs of the Clans with complete disregard for what clanners hold sacred if it suits his intentions. This has already gone so far that some members of his House have mourned the fact that the Dragoons did not heed the recall order and thus shed some light on the final fate of Natasha Kerensky, because the Bloodright of her Bloodname would certainly be the most fitting available.
(But everything has its price and Yuri's concentration on other fields has lead to him 'neglecting' his mech piloting skills to the point that others like Cherish and Jyren, though of lesser Bloodlines, have surpassed him in ability. Still, he doesn't exactly worry about this, secure in his knowledge that the really important battles are neither waged nor won in a mech.)
While his detractors openly voice their concern that the "lethargic and slow Yuri is a shame for the glorious Way of the Clans", his patrons within the Blood House maintain that he is "a fine example of the 'Kerensky Vision' ".
