Ivanova Bartlett
|| Personal Information ||

Personality:
Individualist | Quiet | Objective | Hard-working | Attentive | Loyal | Just
Quick-witted | Passive | Unsociable | Serious | Brooding | Blunt
Though almost always seen with a tired frown on his face, Ivan is often perceived as someone who is cool and cold. Whilst part of that holds true to his nature, he is simply someone who prefers to not engage in social conversations. As someone who prefers his own company than others, he finds it a bit difficult to start talking to people unless he is prompted to. His inability to express himself and his emotions often come in the way of what he wants to convey. Sometimes, his words are often misinterpreted into something else. He would find himself being tactless with his choice of words due to the fact that his family’s way of communication is through witty banters; a habit that adds unto the misunderstandings. Though he is often prompted to try to be more pleasantly social, Ivan simply refuses to talk to people he doesn't want to talk to (unless it is part of the job). He finds it rather difficult to communicate with the common folk as mundane topics that don't include work bore him.
Anger comes to him rarely; though when it does arrive, it comes quick, fast, and harsh. Although he rarely uses violence, he is willing to break off physical or verbal fights if it gets in his way or when it interrupts his job. He is also very particular with those that often get into his private space without permission. He finds it grating when people pry and prod into matters that don't concern them. Whether one is of-status or not, he is forward enough to tell them off with as much civility as he can (which sometimes end up with him getting passive-aggressive; a habit quite infuriating according to his peers). He rarely bears ill will against people, nor does he think badly of the Kingdom as a whole. However, his loyalty to the Empire is unwavering and is of utmost priority, and he will do anything his Emperor commands him to. He is able to keep business and personal matters aside, and only does what is necessary and what he’s ordered to do. He is stern and serious with work, but he is open-minded with ideas and suggestions and is not the type who would selfishly hide his intentions and ideas for the sake of his pride. He encourages opinions from people, wanting to hear all possible sides for the sake of fortifying the plan. What he does mind, however, is that when said plans and ideas are changed at a last minute. As a man of routine, he dislikes it very much when work and standard procedure gets interrupted. This is where he gets stubborn enough to make his own mind up- that they are sticking to the plan whether they like it or not.

History:
Ivan’s early years were spent with his nose stuck in a book It had been during those years that Ivan’s own family had expected themselves to rely on the Bartlett family’s business as work. Even during his youth, he’d been taught how to properly manage the people around him, as well as how their business worked. At some point, however, Ivan’s father, Silvester, the second son to the (former) Burgaf of Wendland, had been ready to take over business when hard news fell upon them. His brother, who had currently taken over the title, had died due to weak health and sickness. With no heir to bear the title, Silvester then took over.
With that, Ivan was given even more pressure with his own standing. Whilst his siblings chose the path of the sword, Ivan had developed the ability to control magic at a young age; hence, he had considered his potential as a good Conjurer like his mother and followed her path. He poured all his free time in various attempts in controlling familiars that had been the Forst family’s allies for years now, often times looking for familiars of his own. He had finally reached a portal of his own, the world being similar to the ones the Forst’s have been summoning, but his own creatures had been more bloodthirsty and harder to control. Nevertheless, Ivan prevailed and had made a pact of loyalty with one of their leaders, whom he calls ‘Haben’.
Ivan rarely complained about his lifestyle. Though his parents were not as doting as some, he was well-fed, well dressed and treated rather fairly. He had been taught about defending himself both physically and mentally, strengthening his confidence with himself and his own decisiveness with how he wants to live his life. Even as the least talkative amongst the siblings, they were close enough to know that each sibling had each other’s back. So Ivan really had no room to complain.
Even as his father took over and told them that their eldest, Steffen, next in line, Ivan’s only request was that he join the military. He had decided that he did not want to sit idly and deal with businesses. He found ‘passion’ in serving his country thanks to his patriotic tutors and relatives who had told him over and over that they had reached this high with many thanks to the Emperor and his line. Most of those who did not pursue business had gone to serve the military, and Ivan had wanted to do the same.
As soon as he was able to, Ivan enlisted in the military with high hopes of bringing his father’s name and family to good light. He worked as hard as he can despite finding the entire process different in the military than in the estate. He definitely wasn’t spoon-fed with certain things any longer, but Ivan was past the point of being regretful about having lost his silver platter, and had learned quickly to adapt to how the military works. Thanks to his determination and stubborn streak of wanting to adapt and survive to this new, more interesting environment, Ivan was able to reach the ranks of the Imperial Guard- a feat even he had to admit was worthy of a boastful jab or two every now and then in the family.

Family
► Silvester Bartlett 【Father; Burgaf of Wendland; Champion】
► Elisabeth Scherber-Forst【Mother; Burgravin; Conjurer】
► Steffen Bartlett【Brother; 35; Heir to the Bartlett Estates; Champion】
► Rosalind Bartlett【Sister; 34; Fighter】

► Rafail Bartlett【Brother; 26; Sorcerer】

Others
► Audrey Lockwood 【Fiancé; 26; Champion】- The woman his parents had decided to have him marry in order to strengthen their bonds with the other noble family. Ivan initially had doubts of his own with this marriage but did not complain any further when he sees that the lady was of the same profession, and she was simple, kind, a lady he knew he wouldn’t find annoying.
► Anneliese L.Rosenberg 【Future Sister-in-Law; 22; Sorcerer】- The youngest sibling of his youngest sister's fiancé. His civility only extends to the fact that they are soon to be family. He initially had his irritations at the wild child, but he soon had gotten used to her and is probably one of those few talkative ladies he can stand being in the same room with.
► Claire Rutherford 【???; 22; Scout】- Doesn't really know what he considers Claire as other an a young lady in need of proper manners. He feels the need to keep her at bay due to the fact that her mother had been a senior of his back in the days.
► Donovan Gottfreid 【Acquaintance; 22; Healer】- A man he considers as "Claire's friend". He's considerably much better in terms of manners than the lady and rather enjoys his company than most people thanks to his calm demeanor.
► Do hit me up for an RP/HC if you’re from the military/noble houses! Or if you’re generally passing by Koben or wandering around Koben streets, then feel free to bug as well!

Additional info:
► Currently engaged to Audrey Lockwood.
► Almost all of his siblings are already married off to other noble families. He and his youngest sister are the only ones not married. His younger sister is also engaged to one of the Rosenberg siblings.
► He’s not very much particular about his appearance and often has to be reminded by his peers and siblings to fix his entire demeanor and clothing. He very much prefers to be able to move “more freely” and wear what he wants. Nevertheless, he complies due to duty.
► Very much into music and occasionally plays the piano when he can. Sometimes, he thinks of himself as a frustrated pianist (as it is the one thing that brings him calm) but he also easily dismisses the idea.
► Has a bad habit of smoking.
► The Bartlett estate - Situated near the borders of Linhythe, just a good few miles away from the Marquess’ own estate; specializes in farming and raising animals, using their location to their advantage to trade their goods here and there via Linhythe.
► Summons: He is currently able to summon flesh-eating creatures from the world Haben is from. He lets out 7 main creatures, in which all of their abilities are, in some ways, related to anything involving ‘meat’. These 7 are feral in nature, in which Ivan is required to summon Haben, and Haben has to be present in order to let Ivan control them well. So far, he has controlled 3 well (Haben included).
