Ivan Kiramman

***If violence is the only language you choose to speak, then I’ll speak your language."***

## Early Life

Ivan was born on December 16th, 1874, within the great city of Saint Denis. He was born two minutes before his brother, Emmett Kiramman. His parents were Louie Kiramman, a cheeky criminal but willing to do anything for the safety of his wife and children, and Shery Lorenzo, a naturalist that influenced both Emmet and Ivan heavily to try and help people any time they could. During Ivan's early childhood years (1-5), a woman that Louie had worked (alias known as Saint) for became a prominent figure for Ivan and his brother, taking on a motherly type role for the two temporarily. Even with Saint being there for quite some time, Ivan had no recollection of her existing.

While Ivan began to learn how to speak, he had began inheriting a fake accent that his father used to overall hide who he was to his family, trying to keep it hidden that he was working for Saint for the safety of his family. This accent was a mostly butchered Russian accent that he still somewhat had from his early childhood in Eastern Europe. This became Ivan's accent during his childhood and up until his adulthood.

Once he was old enough, Ivan had enrolled into school alongside Emmett and Amelia (Amelia being a cousin of Ivan), and did quite well overall. In his teenage years he began trying to aim for being a lawman or even a doctor, under the influence of his mother to help people. This was a great step in the right direction for Ivan, which influenced a lot of his occupations in his adulthood. During this time, Ivan still had no idea that his father worked for Saint.

## Adult Life

Ivan after age 19 had moved into other areas of the West, abandoning his family behind to ensure he could achieve his goals. With being enrolled in schooling in his early childhood, Ivan had joined a local sheriffs department in Valentine, under Sheriff Junior. and had climbed the ranks from probationary deputy to undersheriff. After unforeseen events had occurred with a close friend of his, Ivan was unable to show to work, and was terminated from his job.

Around a year later, though, Ivan had returned to Valentine to be hired on once again now under Sheriff Calloway. This did not last long though, as the Valentine Sheriff's Office was a complete mess. After only two weeks, Ivan had resigned from the department, joining the New Hanover Medical Department soon after. He had climbed rank after rank once again in this department, becoming the Deputy Head of State for the medical department.

Only around a month after Ivan joining the department, a known serial kidnapper in the area that was commonly known as "Raven" (later identified as Judy Kiramman) was arrested and held in Sisika Maximum Security Penitentiary until trial. Ivan and the Head of State in his department had held a psychological evaluation of Judy Kiramman, diagnosing her with schizophrenia and paranoia. After this psychological evaluation, Ivan had met Saint (for the first time since his early childhood, which makes Ivan believe he's never met this woman) and one of her goons. He was tortured on the casino boat of Saint Denis (his left hand being stabbed straight through), and left in the streets to bleed out. Luckily, Ivan was able to get himself to a doctors office. Around this time, he also had found contact with his cousin such Victoria Kiramman, and half cousin Ezra Kiramman.

Over the span of the next month or so, Ivan had gotten himself entangled with Saint and her gang, demanding him to assist to break Judy Kiramman out of prison, while also having to hold a relationship with Marila, and keeping the New Hanover Medical Office afloat. Risking absolutely everything, he had assisted in the prison break of Judy Kiramman, and was arrested three days later. He was transported to Fort Wallace and was held for multiple weeks, during this time he wrote letters to people, contemplated what he did, and so on so on. During his time of extreme isolation, his mental state declined.

One of these people he wrote to was a close friend of his, Nick Hayes. Encoding the location of is imprisonment within a letter, Nick was able to decipher it and rally a gang known as The Nightshades to break him out. Ivan had exploited that there was an unconscious prisoner within his cell with him to lure a lawman inside and escape through the open door, jumping the walls of Fort Wallace and escaping via The Nightshades and a friend, Cole McLeod.

After he escaped, he went into hiding with Marila for quite some time, which during this time, she had given birth to their son (Nicholas), and Ivan was manipulated extremely into joining The Saints. Saintherself had demanded that Ivan kidnap Ezra Kiramman and torture her to show that he was even worth keeping alive. Hesitantly, he did so, which severed their relations completely. Ivan went back into hiding with his partner and son, until his charges were dropped by Cole McLeod (now the acting Chief Justice) due to no solid evidence pointing to Ivan committing the prison break. Ivan got away with only serving a few months for escaping custody and a few other infractions.

Ivan stayed in nearby states such as Kentucky and Tennessee for some time, before returning to the West.
