Appearance

Igor’s most striking features are his long, white hair which tends to hang loose and flow just long enough to tuck into his belt if he desired, and his fierce, tangerine colored eyes, which tend to burn like fire more often than not. The rest of his facial features, (nose, cheeks, forehead) are long and slightly angular, contrasting his small, thin lips and ears.

He stands fairly short at only 5’7.5”, with short legs and torso and long arms that hang down, giving him a slightly gorilla-like appearance. This is only enhanced by the fact that Igor is naturally well-muscled, his natural gifts expanded upon through regular time working out in the home gym that resides in his basement.

He usually wears black jeans and boots, a solid white t shirt and a long white overcoat, which he rarely takes off, even when indoors. He had not worn robes since the Reveal, other than his school uniform when it was still required at Hogwarts. He also owns two tuxedos, one white and the other black, for formal occasions. Essentially, his wardrobe is completely two-tone, white and black, no matter what situation he finds himself in.

Igor has two tattoos, a bust of the Christian devil Lucifer on the inside of his left arm and a full back piece of the Angel of Death. This symbolizes his belief that good and evil are relative and that death is something to be embraced, not feared.

Personality

Most of the world would assume that this simple wardrobe was symbolic of its owners. Though Igor is extremely smart, finishing his Hogwarts career with top marks in several classes, he is also extremely quiet, to the point that no one outside of his inner circle knows anything other than that he is very bright and very formal.

That inner circle would be able to tell you the reason that Igor spent seven years in Slytherin and not Ravenclaw, which is his ambition. Igor secretly wants to rule the world. The reason he quietly supports Unity is because he wants to rule the entire world, not just the wizarding world like previous Dark Lords. He believes that muggles are equally valuable subject to their magical counterparts.

Best Qualities: Smart, studious, good listener
Worst Qualities: Quiet to a fault, overly ambitious, stuck in his own head at times
Likes: Cigarettes, good company, people who do what he tells them
Dislikes: Children, other loud or smelly things, his day job
Pet Peeves: Wasted time, bad seafood

Goals

Career: To rule the world
Love: To eventually convince Sibes to go through with a wedding ceremony
Family: An heir that he doesn’t have to raise until his teens, when it is time to train him
Friendship: An inner circle that fears him enough that they can be trusted

Fears and Weaknesses

Igor would not admit to fearing anything, although he does deeply fear that he is wasting his life in the way he chose. He also both fears going back to Russia and never returning there to see his family.


History

Family History
For almost a century, the Mirakovs were a powerful family in Russia, essentially running a wizarding version of the Russian mafia. During the time of Igor’s grandfather Gregor, they were forced out by the Evanskis. Igor’s father Filip went into law enforcement as a result, taking the old rivalry between the two families to a new level, as they stood on opposite sides of the law. Due to a prophecy made when he was two years old, both Igor and his contemporary Tobias Evanski were sent by their families to live in England, hoping it would help their side win their private war.

Individual History

Igor was born in Russia, shortly after a prophecy was made to a gifted Seer with connections to the Evanski run mafia about the end of the long magical violence in the country. The prophecy was never made public, but Filip Mirakov learned of it when he questioned the Seer during an unrelated arrest. As a result, though he was brought up in Russia and trained heavily by his father in magic and the Dark Arts, Igor was sent to school at Hogwarts rather than Durmstrang for his schooling. He remained close to his father and younger brothers and went home every chance he got until he came of age early in his 6th year and was told that for his safety he could never come home again. If only his father had known the danger that Igor had been getting into at school, he would have realized what he should have known anyway, that prophecies come true no matter what people do to prevent them.

At Hogwarts, Igor was sorted into Slytherin, as was Tobias Evanski, his rival in family and in prophecy. Not blessed with Toby’s charm or way with people, Igor instead searched among what others considered the rejects and dregs of the school for his followers. Within months of arriving, he had a small but loyal following, consisting of those estranged far from home, borderline psychotic, and even a possible werewolf, many of whom were older than Igor but all of which respected and listened to him, either out of true loyalty or desire for power.

For the first couple of years, Igor studied hard and built his inner circle, until in third year Toby made the first move, taking a bitter private feud into the public sphere. Over a period of just over three years, the fighting escalated into their sixth year, peaking with Toby carving his name into the flesh of Igor’s beloved and one of Igor’s followers who had already left school killing a close friend of Toby’s (though this was never proven in court).

Finally the one mutual friend that the two had stepped in, forcing a truce that was tentative at first, until both teenagers realized that they had no clue why they were fighting when together they could entirely rule the school. This led to one of the great pranking and terrorizing combos in school history, on part with famous groups like the Marauders and the Weasleys. They are best friends to this day, with Toby basically living with Igor and Sibes, as he rarely sees his own flat.

Igor was always a history buff, as well as hell bent on taking over the world. As such, he enrolled in University College London upon graduation from Hogwarts, having been promised a job giving lectures on magical culture to muggles and muggle culture to wizards. Three years later, he finished a BA in History, though he is still currently working in the job he has held since he finished at Hogwarts, inputting information on magical history in Britain into a computer program to help others educate muggles in this history. The only thing that changed upon finishing his degree was that he went from working part time around classes and studying to putting in a traditional Monday through Friday 40 hour work week.

Other

Igor has lived in a large manor house with Sibes since he turned of age, first on holidays from Hogwarts and then permanently after graduation. Its purchase was the last time he spoke to his father in person.

Both of his tattoos were done by a muggle artist in London who is an old family friend using muggle tattooing methods.
