Nikolai Yarikj was a "repairman" from Rutav who moved to Nubizkyl a long time ago. He might be a repair man by trade, but he isn‘t alien to comitting crime. Fixing appliances wasn't the only thing this handyman could do... However, depression hit him hard. He got himself addicted to drugs and gambling which both dragged him down into a rabbit hole. Nikolai‘s aunt however wanted to support and help him. She gave him shelter and care, but that didn’t stop him from doing stupid decisions. In 1999, Nikolai took a loan from the Nubagami which he immediately gambled away. To avoid consequences for himself and most importantly his aunt, he had to pay off his debt. May it be in blood. The Nubagami had a baker who didn‘t pay back his loans and now it was time he faces the consequences. Luckily a good friend of Nikolai named Pavel Petriov was a loyal customer of said baker and was invited to his birthday party. Nikolai asked if he could come and "try out the cake" and Pavel unknowingly agreed. Nikolai owned a K1911 which he hid next to his ankles. Adorning his favourite hat he stole from a tourist once, he went to Oksan Rhyosa‘s birthday. It went well for him. There was no one who knew or recognised him and all he had to do was follow the mood a little. Soon he would get a chance to take out Oksan and he only had to bite one bullet for it. Read more under Oksan‘s 37th Birthday Party Nikolai lived low with his aunt afterwards. He is scared that someone someday will come back for vengeance, which wasn't unfounded when someone with a sense of vigilante justice kidnapped him one night on a warehouse contract and later let him go after a long talking to, in pieces.
