Physical Description: A short, fat dwarf. Thick and heavy brown beard, often with black singed parts.
Personality/background Viktor used to work for a Polish firm specialized in technical security (Drones, Matrix). It went bankrupt because of the heavy competition on the market and charges of money embezzling and tax evasion against the management. Out of work and out of money Viktor learned that there was great demand for someone with his skills but not too choosy of what they're used for. He snagged some gear which the curators had labeled as "to be destroyed" and found a smuggler willing to take him to the UCAS. His nickname he earned for his love of classical music and the fact that he reenacted the "ride of the walkures" scene from an old movie he saw with a hacked rotordrone. An act that got him suspended from work for 3 months, but caused some laughs.
He's very passionate about hardware, drones in particular. Software and the matrix are part of this too, of course. He hates how graphic The Matrix has become and how people are calling it "a second world created by us". It's a tool to him and all the graphics are distractions from what's important. His own node is an empty grey nothingness, the programs static monochromatic icons, connections straight undecorated lines. His Icon is the same one he bought when he was a 12 year old kid, a robot from an animated show that was popular in Poland 30 years ago, its looks and animations now horribly outdated. He never could be bothered to change it.

An old friend Viktor went to technical school with and who ended up working for the knights; eventually getting transfered from Warshaw to Seattle in a cultural enrichment project (anti-racism project to please the media and public) where he got married, kids and divorced. Now earns some extra cred by selling weapons and ammo.

It's a small world. Viktor got to know her on the matrix on a site about classical music. They liked the same composers, started talking and found that they're both pretty crazy about technology too. They're 'friends' even though they never met in person. It wasn't until Viktor mentioned to her that he'd left his country and had arrived in Seattle that he found out she lived there too. He leaked her some confidential information, blueprints and schematics that got her climbing the ranks in her office; in return, she got some "scrapped" drones sent his way.
