**Andrey Stamatin** is an architect from the Capital and the owner of the Broken Heart pub. He is the elder twin brother of Peter Stamatin.

## Description

Andrey Stamatin is an intense man, and incredibly protective of his brother. He is a genius with a mind very few in the world possess. He lets nothing stand in his way and takes pleasure in breaking the known rules and Laws.

## Background

Andrey was an renowned architect in the Capital, building glorious structures such as the Dancing Bridge. He often worked in tandem with his brother, Peter Stamatin, who he insists in the brains behind their projects while he is the one who clears their path. Some time before the beginning of *Pathologic 2* the two Stamatin brothers were brought to the Town by the Kains Prior to the beginning of Pathologic 2 both Andrey and his brother were tasked with building a genius structure on the Kain's behalf: the Polyhedron. Five years before the beginning of *Pathologic 2* it was completed, the brothers having succeed in creating something truly miraculous.

## Appearance

Andrey Stamatin brushes his black hair back, and has an intense stare. He wears no shirt, but a white buckled coat over his bandaged torso, where one can see various scars, knife wounds, and 'spider veins' (possibly varicose veins) across his shoulders and chest. He wears striped brown-and-white pants held up by leather suspenders. He wears wing tip black shoes. A white cord is wrapped around his neck. Naturally, he is physically similar to his twin brother Peter.

## Plot

### Haruspex Route

During the epidemic, Andrey is concerned with the preservation of his brother, Peter Stamatin and of the Polyhedron. He is often visited by the Haruspex with issues concerning his bar, the Broken Heart, and on request by his brother Peter Stamatin.

When the Inquisitor arrives in the Town, Andrey can be seen waiting outside of the Cathedral with his brother, awaiting interrogation. He remarks upon the Polyhedron, observing his creation nearby.

If the Haruspex has decided to move Grace from the Cemetery to Stamatin's Loft but Peter Stamatin has died prior to her move Grace will instead commune with Peter's spirit. She gives the Haruspex a Key With No Lock and asks him to give it to Andrey. Andrey reluctantly accepts the key but refuses to tell the Haruspex what the key was for, only that he now understands that Peter knew something for a very long time. He refuses to accept any condolences from the Haruspex on his brother's death, wishing to be rid of him as soon as possible.

In the Diurnal Ending, Andrey can be found in the Broken Heart, drinking with his brother, the Bachelor, and Yulia Lyuricheva.

In the Nocturnal Ending, Andrey flees the Town with many of the Utopians and Humbles.

### Pathologic: The Marble Nest

During *The Marble Nest*, Andrey Stamatin is located in the condemned part of The Town, alive but in danger.

## Notes

* Andrey Stamatin will only appear in front of the Cathedral on **Day 7** if he was not infected at midnight.
* Andrey's voiced line regarding "looking like a hero" is intentionally written to be sexually forward, as noted by Alexandra "alphyna" Golubeva.
* Andrey is based off of Benvenuto Cellini, an Italian sculptor of the Late Renaissance. Cellini was known for his goldsmith work and sculpting skills, as well as his public afrays (brawls), murdering his brother’s killer in an act of blood revenge, and bisexual affairs with both men and women.

**Andrey Stamatin** is an architect from the Capital and the owner of the pub in the Earth District. He is the elder twin brother of Peter Stamatin.

## Description

***Pose**: With his left hand he grabs his opponent by the collar or by their throat. He moves his right hand in front of his opponent’s face as if he is checking their temperature.****Personality**: Wild, hedonistic, energetic. Fearless, a glutton for pleasure, fierce and jovial. Andrey develops unique theories about the limits of human freedom. He doubts the veracity of any kinds of premises and fundamental truths. Andrey acknowledges no authority. He fancies the usage of superlatives. If he set his mind on something he always carries through it. Andrey is able to create unusual things, but wastes his talent lavishly. He works in chaotic and unstable surges.*

A wild, fierce, and hedonistic man, but also energetic, buoyant, and jovial. Andrey acknowledges no authority, and is inclined to doubt any established premise and principle. As such, he invents many peculiar doctrines on the limits of human freedom. He seems to generally enjoy violence and fighting, even challenging the Haruspex to a "contest of life-taking." However, he hates it when someone "dares attack a woman," which is one reason for his fights.

He is consistent in any situation. He is able to build many unusual projects, yet diffuses his talents by working chaotically and unstably. Andrey concedes to Peter in terms of creative talent, though he is far better with practical matters than his twin. Andrey cares for his brother above anyone else, but also maintains a close romantic relationship with Eva Yan and is protective of the dancers who work in his pub, and greatly admires Maria Kaina.

## Background

Well-known architects from the Capital, both Stamatin brothers have designed famous buildings across the country. Andrey and his brother were brought to the town by Nina Kaina ten years prior to the events of the game and have lived there since. Together, they created the Polyhedron among other constructions.

Andrey specifically states that he has been sentenced to death in four countries for his "architectural works." Though he and Peter have worked both separately and collaboratively, Andrey says he is "usually the one to take the beating."

Either or both Stamatins are known to have worked on:

* The Downgate
* The Alley of Heroes ensemble
* The Other Stairway Round
* The House House
* The Cold Hall
* The Stairways to Heaven
* The Polyhedron

It is unclear to what extent which brother was involved with which projects, but Andrey claims his death sentences came in response to his creation of The Downgate, the Alley of Heroes ensemble, The Other Stairway Round, and House House. Both twins collaborated on Cold Hall, and on the buildings in the town. The stairways are Peter's work.

The first dialogue between Andrey and the Bachelor reveals that they knew each other when they were both students of Health Science — which Andrey presumably left to pursue architecture—and that they were involved in a bar fight together, apparently on the defending side.

## Appearance

Andrey has short black hair, dark eyes, and patchy facial hair across his jaw. He wears a white shirt under a corduroy jacket with a floral kerchief hanging out of his left pocket. He has several rings across his right hand. He wears blue and white striped pants and white wing tip shoes with a spike at the heel.

## Plot

#### Bachelor Route

The Bachelor can meet with Andrey on **Day 1** by visiting his pub. They share reminiscience about their college days together, with Andrey proudly declaring he has since moved on and created fantastic architectural miracles with the assistance of his brother. The following day, the Bachelor is asked by Eva Yan to convince the brothers in escaping the coming epidemic with her. Andrey agrees, but only if Peter can be convinced. However, the plan falls through when the Bachelor discovers the train service is discontinued.

On **Day 7**, after discovering that Eva Yan is missing and receiving a message via Ayan from Andrey, the Bachelor will look for him at his pub. However, Andrey will not be there, and instead two of the pub's workers direct the Bachelor to the marshes. There, Andrey will be confronting several Worms, accusing them of kidnapping Eva. Both he and the Bachelor come to realize that Eva has committed suicide, throwing herself from the Cathedral. Andrey laments that Eva was always "his woman", free to live her life, but stayed important to him.

On **Day 10**, as the Bachelor searches for Peter Stamatin, but finds that Peter has disappeared from his home and the place is full of army soldiers. He learns that Peter was not arrested and visits Andrey at his pub in order to find Peter. Andrey will tell the Bachelor that Peter went to look for something near a Stairway to Heaven located in the Chine, while also declaring that he will do whatever he can to protect his brother from the Army and the governor.

On **Day 11**, the Bachelor goes to Andrey Stamatin's Pub to look for Andrey in order to obtain more blueprints of the Polyhedron. However, Andrey is not present; a distressed dancer tells him that Andrey was arrested by the army and is sentenced to execution. The Bachelor attends the execution spot, and deals with the soldiers; he will return to the pub to find Andrey safe in his usual spot, where he is thankful of the Bachelor's actions. He gives him his blueprints for the Polyhedron.

The following day, as Maria Kaina begins her ascension as Red Mistress, the Bachelor speaks with Andrey in his pub, where he will insistently declare that Maria will lead the Town to a better place, having finally realized the sought Utopia.

#### Haruspex Route

Andrey has a limited appearance in the Haruspex route. When meeting him as the Haruspex for the first time on **Day 2**, Andrey Stamatin and his brother will be in his pub. His first conversation with the Haruspex will be as friendly as Andrey can be: he threatens him in passing, only for the Haruspex to boldly state he could beat the life out of Andrey if he wanted to. After a moment of shock and consideration, Andrey will change the subject by proposing a business opportunity: he will trade him weapons and medicine for herbs and twyre. On that day, he will also ask the Haruspex for 10 sprigs of Brown Twyre in exchange for 4000 coins and information about the location of a store that is buying items at a premium.

On **Day 12**, as Andrey Stamatin is one of the Bachelor's Bound, there is a chance that an Executor will be stationed outside of Andrey Stamatin's Pub with Andrey being infected inside. If the player wishes for the Bachelor to attend the Cathedral meeting, they must give Andrey Stamatin a Shmowder or a Panacea to cure him.

#### Changeling Route

On **Day 2**, while completing a request for Vlad the Younger, the Changeling will be directed to speak to Andrey Stamatin about the rumours that the Haruspex is capable of brewing medicinal tinctures. Andrey will confirm the efficacy of the Haruspex's tinctures, and also propose a trade agreement with the Changeling: if she brings him twyre, he will create medicinal extract for her to use.

Several days later, the Changeling will be asked by Katerina Saburova to convert the Stamatin siblings from the 'heresy of the Utopians' to better suit the Town's future. As Peter Stamatin will only entertain Katerina's request if his brother does, the Changeling visits Andrey at his pub. During her conversation with him, he grows increasingly hostile, furious she at all implies that both he and his brother need some sort of "salvation", and criticizes her belief in God. He sends her away, demanding she never show her face to him again.

On **Day 11**, the Inquisitor asks the Changeling to deliver some documents to the Bachelor. While looking for the Bachelor, the Changeling will overhear that the Andrey has been arrested by mutinous troops and the Bachelor has gone to free him. If the Changeling goes to Andrey Stamatin's Pub, she will find that Andrey is indeed missing and the pub is crowded with army soldiers. She questions a soldier to discover that Andrey had been taken to the cannon at the Train Station, in front of a firing squad. When the Changeling arrives at the Train Station, she will only find the mutinous soldiers there and two other soldiers hidden behind rocks. Once she heals the injured soldier and the mutineers are dealt with, she learns that Andrey and the Bachelor have both managed to escape and she will find them at Stamatin's Loft alongside Peter. The Changeling questions Andrey about the Polyhedron and he apparently disagrees with the Bachelor's conclusions. Andrey says the Polyhedron is not a chimera, and that it was made for people, it is needed by people, and would have no meaning without people.

On **Day 12**, as Andrey Stamatin is one of the Bachelor's Bound, there is a chance that an Executor will be stationed outside of Andrey Stamatin's pub with Andrey being infected inside. If the player wishes for the Bachelor to attend the Cathedral meeting, they must give Andrey Stamatin a Shmowder or a Panacea to cure him.

## Notes

* In the original English translation of the game, his name was written as "Andrei Stamatin."
* Andrey carries a knife which he calls a "*navaja*"—a type of Spanish folding-knife. Historically, the *navaja* was a knife used by common people after a ban on longer blades, which seems to reflect Andrey's contempt towards nobility.
* Andrey's pub is called *Factus Est,* but was previously called *Golghoy Khen.*
* Andrey's appearance is based on Nikita Koledin, a Russian theatre actor and director . Nikita's photo is used for both Andrey and Peter.
