He's been a mercenary since, not caring much about which cause he fights for. He would prefer to never lead a unit in combat again and command only himself, but life doesn't always work that way. Vladislav cuts a slightly forlorn figure these days, being wanted by his own government, the local White Russians and other communist-hating factions. He can often be found in night clubs drinking the strongest alcohol they have and reading a history book or entertaining an English or American woman who often find him impossibly tragic/romantic. Sometimes he seizes a piano and plays sad tunes (tolerably) until the manager politely talks him out of it. In the Shanghai gun-for-hire trade Vladislav is known as the Teacher. Sometimes people want to hire a man who can converse intelligently while guarding their lives. | He's been a mercenary since, not caring much about which cause he fights for.

He seems a decent enough man for someone from the hated noble class; at least he likes to party hard. This job makes him, once again, a first lieutenant. Vlad can march with the best of them and run a rifle drill in his sleep, which makes him valuable if not always highly enthusiastic. |
Vladislav is a long-time boarder at the Metropole Hotel on the Nanking Road, near the racetrack. He's been there long enough and tips the staff well enough for them to turn a blind eye when he sneaks out of the back door carrying a duffel bag full of weapons. | Vladislav is a long-time boarder at the Metropole Hotel on the Nanking Road, near the racetrack.
