### Face claim

Nick Pervak

**Vladimir Andrei Verano y Bonifacio** (born 07 June 2033) is part of the wealthy and famous Verano clan from the Philippines as the fifth child and third son of Nikolai Xavier Verano and Mayumi Phoebe Bonifacio. He is the younger brother of Viktor, Vasilisa, Valentin and Veronika, and the older brother of Valeriya, Vladislav and Violetta. Like his siblings, he is a licensed pilot that influenced his intention to take up a degree in aeronautics and astronautics. However, being a skilled equestrian himself, he is considered a promising talent for competing in the Olympics since he was nineteen; winning six medals, four of it gold (2052, 2056 and 2060).

He is the deuteragonist of *Gyroscope*, the third spin-off story of the *FLIGHT* series, alongside Serena Cordelia Garcia, a Filipino-American socialite he met during the 2058 F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, who served as the story's protagonist and later his wife.

## Biography

### Early life

Initially, his parents only planned to have four children, especially after suffering a miscarriage before that of her immediate older sibling Veronika roughly two years ago. However, a successive pregnancy countered with their plan as his father pointed out that they should have further children until they were able as money had never been an issue for them.

Vladimir was born on the morning of 07 June 2033 at Hôpital Necker-Laennec Enfants-Malades, Paris, France to Nikolai Xavier Verano, Chairman of the Verano Group of Companies and President of Verano Development Corporation, and Mayumi Phoebe Bonifacio, President of Malyari Air; and was christened on 13 August 2033 at Santuario de San Antonio Parish Church at Forbes Park, Makati, Philippines, before being followed by a reception at the McKinley Ballroom of Alethea the Fort, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, Philippines.

He had five older siblings, one was miscarried: Viktor, Vasilisa, Valentin and Veronika; and later on, he had four younger siblings, another one miscarried: Valeriya, Vladislav and Violetta. He and his siblings roughly had a two-year age gap in between. At birth, Vladimir had his own fair share of stocks from the Verano Group of Companies, the same as his siblings, which he was bound to personally own when he turned eighteen years old.
