"The wind will take us there."

Modern Rivek and Bea, a character from a girl on Gaia.

Based on a song my Italian room-mate used to play all the time. This took me awhile to do because of school, and I don't have a huge hang on painting or CG yet, so it doesn't look like what i expected. Saturation is hard.

Rivek was born in Poland but moved to the United States around eight. He grew up in a densely populated, immigrant section of Baltimore and still retains a bit of accent. At twelve, he applied for a scholarship at a private school and received it because, although his English was sub par, he had 'excellent cross-country runner' written all over him. He still jokes that his greatest high school accomplishment was not getting shot. He was made fun of in school for being the obvious charity case - and it made him a little violent -, but he's gotten over it and is proud he earned what he makes. He finished a bachelors degree in chemical engineering from Carnegie Mellon - also on scholarship - and now repairs aircraft. Although raised Jewish, he has adopted more taoist beliefs, and no matter how hard he tries, how much he loves something or some one, he has to keep moving from one city to another.

Rivek likes girls who are on the fun-loving side who can bring him out of his reserved personality. As for looks, he likes his women short and thin but doesn't care much about cup size. History has shown he likes Caucasians - brunettes and redheads -, but hair style doesn't matter as long as he has something to run his fingers through. He is not particularly touchy-feely or sexual, so she'll have to settle with just having his arm around her shoulder.
