Andrei is a somewhat fair-skinned young man, with dark brown eyes and dirty blonde hair. His hair is oftentimes a little messy and tousled, and reaches to about his ears in terms of length. As far as clothing goes, Andrei favors whatever is practical and comfortable; jeans, t-shirts, and the such, tending to prefer his clothing a little on the loose side - particularly with his shirts.

As far as body type goes, he's a little on the thin side with a somewhat average height, but is otherwise fit enough from the time he'd spend wandering the woods. Though, he is also more lithe and lean than particularly muscular in any sense; he probably couldn't throw a punch for the life of him, but he can certainly run and climb around.

Personality:
Andrei is a kind and chill young man - even if a bit of your stereotypical college boy. He's usually smiling, always open for a chat, and before the upcoming series of events that lead to him being stranded in the digital world, he tended to spend his days making videos for his YouTube channel, playing the guitar, or exploring the woods beyond his home. Though, he is also maybe a bit gullible and naive from being somewhat sheltered. Otherwise though, he means well, and is always eager to please and help those he considers friends. He, similarly, adores his family and has a close bond with them - particularly his mother. Once he sets himself to a task in the aid of others, it's hard to get him to stop!

All the same though, he does get a little paranoid and anxious easily - which seems to play a bit into his gullibility and naivety. At the first sign of danger, he's looking for a way out - and it isn't too hard to bully him into doing things your way. Though he likes hunting cryptids and ghosts for fun, to 'prove their existence', he's almost always seen carrying around some form of safeguard when he is - typically pepper spray or bear repellent, or his pocketknife. Having a friend at his side helps him feel a little more at-ease though - be it a digimon or a human.

As far as goals go, his biggest dream is to get into Law School. He wants to help those who are less able, and perhaps even one day get into a role where he could help change laws to become more accommodating to such people. In the meantime though, he's content working on his YouTube channel, and trying to get it off the ground - having learned a lot in filming in editing in an attempt to help accomplish this. He, additionally, simply just wants to make those around him happy in one way or another - be it spending time with people, helping them, or even people enjoying his videos.

Overall though, Andrei's a good guy - and he tries his best to be a good guy. He's a little innocent, a little gullible, a little wet behind the ears, and a bit of a scaredy cat - but he's trying his best, and he tries his best to make sure everyone is happy, especially those close to him. Sure, sometimes things come up that spook him and make him anxious - but at least with someone by his side, he'll feel a little more confident in going off to the great unknown.

Personal History:
Andrei was born to an American father and a half-Russian American mother in a small-ish city in Louisiana. He was an only child, who grew up perhaps a bit sheltered by his superstitious mother - many of those same superstitions and anxieties he would come to pick up from her. All the same though, he was raised to be kind, helpful, and happy - values that he would take to heart. His father, similarly, would be the one to teach him much of what he knows regarding computers and filming, and a bit about playing the guitar.

As far as school went, Andrei never was the fittest - but his happy and sociable nature - even if he was a bit nervous sometimes - lent well to making friends and fitting in with others. Though, in the passing years, he would hear of the different struggles some of his friends would deal with - be it their families struggling to get by financially, or laws making it difficult to find the help or support they needed. Being the caring and eager-to-help friend that he was, Andrei would resolve himself to one day get into law school - wanting to help be the one who'd step forward to change things for the better.

Thus, in high-school onward, he would throw himself into his studies the best he could - doing his best in school to reach that point one day, amidst keeping up with his friendships and life with his family. He'd do decently enough in school - grades generally ranging from B's to A's, and the rare A+, as he went thru the paces. Sure, he may not be the smartest or most gifted, but he was doing his best - and his heart was in the right place. He would eventually come to move out into an apartment in another town - on his own - for college, with both a part-time job and the occasional money from his family to help get by.

After having recently graduated from college though, Andrei began working more full-time, while using the free time he had to hang out with friends and work on a YouTube channel that he started up halfway through college - focusing around conspiracy theories, ghosts, cryptids, and the such. He was in the process of looking for a proper Law School that'll accept him in the meantime, having not forgotten that resolve he's had.

Though, Andrei would - one day - end up, by complete accident, falling into a rift into the Digital World. Lost and confused, with no way of going home - except through Shibuya - a Mikemon named Haineko would take Andrei in as an employee to the feline's spa, and in return would provide Andrei a place to stay in Terminus, and teach him Japanese; all in hopes that he would, one day, be able to go home.
