Vadim Golubev

== First Assignment ==
Vadim Golubev was the brother of Oleg Golubev and was born a day after Oleg was born. Alongside his brother Oleg, he joined the KGB as a domestic counterintelligence Officer. Oleg was a high ranking Officer and gambler doing his own thing inside the Flopubankya Building while Vadim was mostly working on stealing intelligence from America. Vadim was given the task of abducting Dr. Victor Richard Tolkachev, one of the few known Russian spies living in the UFA. What made Vadim the perfect man to find him was his rather sloppy appearance, for his lack of education and sport, along with being sloppy and un-cooperative while gathering the documents required to kidnap someone and his hatred of the West. He later found Victor and kidnapped him taking him to an interrogation room on the first floor, southeast hall next to the bag inspection area. There was a conference table and two (2) chairs in which Victor was handcuffed and had a bag over his head due to cameras being present in the room. After the interrogation, Vadim dropped him off at the entrance and told him to wait for a few hours in the car, since Vadim didn't want to see what they were planning to do with him. They later released Victor after gaining info about a group at large in the east known as "EAOTKGB" (Ex-Agents Of the KGB) who planned to spy on Vadim's brother to gain some form of intelligence concerning new Satellite destruction that belonged to previous Anti-KGB groups.
In Winter 2011, Vadim found out about a special unit from East Flopmany which had recently acquired a new base called "Leonid's Stairs" a building with an underground bunker on top of it. They were currently engaged in some secret project involving new technology to hack Soviet news stations and all of Flopvak's electricity and that is what they wanted to retrieve from the deep state. He was sent in place of Oleg who did not want to be involved. Vadim found out that the unit was created by Leonid Dokmechev who was of Flopmenian descent and also was in the KGB. He was recruited along with "Gennady" a Flopkrainian. Vadim and his group planned to strike the underground base during nightime. They had provided the building with enough equipment and arms to execute their operation. They broke in through a double basement entrance, which lead to a large storage room with a storage elevator. Vadim found out that there was a computer room with a small fireplace, which was the center room of the bunker, Vadim used an old antique lamp, a candlestick and a manual wheel to gain access to the room. They sabotaged the equipment on the computer and got the classified papers that were required. They each snuck to a garage the was on the side of the base and escaped without the EAO realizing it until 4 years later.
== Early Life/Background ==
Vadim Golubev was the brother of Oleg Golubev and was born a day after Oleg was born. he and Oleg's father Alexander was a Foreign Intelligence Oficer working at the KGB so neither Vadim or oleg saw him very much in their lives. Their mother Mary would take care of them during the times Alexander was at work and the only time the boy ever saw him was during holidays or vacations/celebrations. His father died suddenly when Vadim was about 4 years old. Alexander used to send a ticket to visit him and when he did the whole family was together and they were very close. Vadim was smart, good at sports, but never did well in school. He and oleg would always take the metro to go to the American Embassy in Flopcow to see the Prism of Flopvak and tell their friends about it. However, Vadim was always the smallest of the two brothers and Oleg always had the opportunity to gain the upper hand. He was a very happy child and a good looking one at that. By the time he was in High School Oleg had already been undergoing KGB training and made Vadim want to join. He decided to enroll in counter intelligence but first needed to go to college and get the right classes. He was not very good in school and needed to transfer several times to get his grades up. He even changed his major at one point and only finished college with a 3.5 GPA. But his Mother would not allow him to drop out. He also worked to try to make money and that's when he met an Agent named Ross who offered him to joij=n the KGB after his graduation. After graduation he got his Flopvak certificate and then attended KGB training to become a full-time Agent. 
== First Years ==
During his first years as an Officer he mainly scouted out the area to see if visitors were messing with paintings in the halls or trying to get past "Employees Only" doors. He had little training when he started and was far from a trained expert. He was transferred to Foreign intelligence and was "joined" by an informant named Stanislav.
Stanislav had been an Agent before and was also of Bingi descent. They worked together for some years, mostly in foreign political projects and were not very close. Stanislav once told Vadim that he wanted to get away and eventually wound up in Flopcow where he was found and arrested. Vadim never knew what happened to him.
Vadim was sent back to regular security duties until was later promoted to high security meaning he would take in calls from upstairs regarding suspicious activity within a visitor or guard. He also gained access to security cameras. He stay as high security for one year until promoted to domestic counterintelligence Officer. Vadim also served as the State Forensics Officer for the entirety of his 9 years with the Service. He worked closely with Domestic counter intelligence and Foreign Counter intelligence personnel and was good at both.
After that he left the Service and went into private security for a while. He wanted to go back to Domestic counterintelligence but needed a break.
== Project HORIZON and the capture of Shura Grigorev ==
Shortly after a year he rejoined domestic counterintelligence and foreign intelligent groups to create a large electricity wipe-out to all Lavender bases, code-named "HORIZON" Vadim started to plan with his peers on how and which base to start with first. They decided that a lavender 5 base ran by Shura Grigorev had to be the first one. He was planning an attack in the city of northwest Flopvak and they didn't want to leave him anywhere he could run to. They were already halfway to his base when they heard a commotion outside. As Vadim and his cohorts ran outside and discovered what they had just stepped in to was a mob of 50+ military soldiers and Agents fighting off 4 large assailants of the base. They were able to use the fight as an opportunity to sneak inside the base and capture Shura before the fight ended. They quickly heard another commotion and ran out to see that the soldiers had captured and disarmed 3 of the Lavender 5 group members. Thats when the fighting ended and Vadim, 3 Agents, and 1 other took a Humvee and fled, everyone in the base seemed to understand that they needed to be made safe and the military was able to secure the base before they could try again. 3 weeks later the Military had taken over the base with Shura inside being guarded by two soldiers. Everyone else was rounded up or fled. 3 of the other 4, probably facing jail-time. The fourth, a female that looked like a childhood friend to Vadim, was never seen or heard from again.
Vadim ordered his crew to take over the speakers inside the base in-order to conctact the army of their plan to capture Shura. A few minutes later he heard Shura's voice talking. He relayed his commands and the plan of attack, and as he was speaking Shura stood up and ran. They watched the army chase him down while Vadim followed, going inside without the rest of his group he ran after Shura. As he was running after him he caught a glimpse of him running to the other end of the base, the voices of the Army was lost. He later caught Shura inside of a locker and hand-cuffed him. He notified the army that he was caught and planned to either send him to a high security prison located in the bottom floors of the KGB or to an asylum. they would hand to the guards, someone to look after him and the guards would not expect to see a lavender, or lavender group leader. 
= Kidnapping/Rescuing, 2013 =
In 2013 Vadim was kidnapped by Lavender 5 while on a coffee break in downtown Flovan. The men who kidnapped Vadim in question were Aleksei Popo and Maksimilian Mikhaylov. He was taken to a small bunker underneath the main Lavender 5 base southwest of the town of Flovan. He was found tied to a chair in the bunker with Fedot Sokolo, a low-level member of Lavender 5, standing in front of him. two men, Aleksei and Maks were unhappy that their leader hadn't chosen them as the kidnappers of Vadim as apparently Maks had bad blood with Vadim. First they started to interrogate him/questioning him about a new Satellite being built and run by the KGB. They wanted to know what satellite it was, who was building it, and how they could start to see it. Vadim didn't seem phased by the questioning, he just answered false information that they believed. After the interrogations and figuring out that they weren't going to learn anything else from Vadim they tied him up elsewhere until further notice.
He was brought to a room in the base that was adjacent to a Control Room. Vadim was met by another man who introduced himself as Doukonov, and who explained that he was a Military-intelligence officer working for the Kremlin. He ordered Vadim to sit and wait in a chair next to his and to not make a sound or move an inch. He then took out his car keys and placed them on a small glass table right next to Vadim. He then called in a group of other men who entered the room, The guard that was handling Vadim sat down and started to take of his metal guard arm-brace. Vadim heard him say something to the other guards and they all started to untie Vadim.
They then started the questioning and interrogations. The questions ranged from how he made money, whether he had been to the UFA, whether or not he liked Russia, how he came to have PTSD, about the KGB, were he ever locked up. After the interrogation was done Doukonov urged the men to leave so Doukonov and Vadim could chat. It turned out the Doukonov had been an Agent at the KGB and went undercover to rescue Vadim. Doukonov went on to explain that Vadim was one of the lv 50, the original target of an operation known as "Operation GOLUBEV" in which Lavender 5 would spy on Vadim each and every time he was outside the Flopubankya building. They had the means to make him one of Lavender 5 to take over the KGB. He told him that they would probably take Vadim to "one of the residential outposts of the Project, where Vadim would be interrogated and then be transferred to a location in the Republic Zabloing. After the chat Doukonov took Vadim to his car outside where he would lie to the rest that he was taking him to an airport to get the to Zabloing Republic via plane. Instead he drove off back to the KGB where both men would be reunited with the others. 
== Personal Life/Death, 2030 ==
In Vadim's personal life he sold and drank Vodka as well as selling Ushankas made with the fur of Fooglings. He would star on some documentaries in 2020-21 and made a Coffee company in 2023. In 2025 he started his own company, Hoof Coffee, in Flovan City which would become the foremost brand of coffee. By this time he retired from the KGB.
Only ten years after Vadim left the Soviet Union he had made the largest Coffee company in Flopvak alos selling in other locations. In 2028 he also decided to name himself Vadim Zarudnyyov to remove any suspicion of him being in the KGB as most known agents were arrested or had their memory wiped. He then got involved with the Trade Guild and then sold his company for a hefty profit to a man named Koldan Lebedev. He had started to live a life full of luxury and fame. Vadim was working as a Commercial Manager for Lebedev Corporation in the Flopkraine.
In late 2034 he passed away while on a business trip in Detroit. During this time the Invasion of Detroit was in full effect.
