1. Judging by his last name he is either Belorussian or Ukrainian.
2. If his father is Chinese he is Chinese and should have Chinese last name.
In Russia as in the most of the world father gives his last name to both wife and children. Same with nationality/ethnicity. Only Jewish people count nationality/ethnicity according mothers one.

I rather imagined that Ark's parents lived in that region where Russia, Kazakhstan, and China meet. Whereas his father would have been a Chinese-Russian, like an Asian-American, either when they immigrated he took on a Russian name or somewhere in the family line there was a Russian father but predominately it was a Chinese family. Ark technically was born in Kazakhstan, not that he knows, but he has no papers nor real remaining official records. So when his uncle, a Russian citizen, they pulled records from his birth parents and he gained Russian nationality.
However, bottom line, Ark's name is not accurately Russian anyways as he'd need a patronymic for his middle name lol--

LoginTrap In reply to zetallis [2012-06-07 10:23:03 +0000 UTC]
Nothing wrong with his name without patronymic, but his last name as I said Ukrainian (or Belorussian).
Patronymic used only for elders usually. For example if you call and ask someone (phone): Can I talk to Vasily Pavlichenko? - OK. This way you ask about man of your age. Now if you ask: Can I talk to Vasily Nikolaevich? - This way you ask and talk to man who are much older than you.
So to say youngsters are called simply by name, usually short name. Like Vasya or Vaska (s soft, like in si, this is kinda rough calling though, we call cats like that lol). Same used between friends (no matter how old).

Hm, not from what I have seen, not being Russian and not having a Russian to ask directly.
I pulled the name Pavlichenko from Lyudmila Pavlichenko, who was, yes, Ukrainian, having moved to Russia and served in the Red Army. I kind of like to think there's a minuscule connection between her and Ark, though I didn't find if she ever had children lol (so I guess that would mean the 'immigrate, choose name' wouldn't have a connection too) Also Ark is suppose to have a sense of being from all over and a jumble of things XDD

Back then Ukraine, Belarus and Russia (as well as several other republics) were united as Russian Empire and after the Revolution and Civil war as a Soviet Union. She's lived in Kiev (capitol of ancient Rus and modern Ukraine).

Right right, I should have said Russian Empire, not Russia. I'm not sure how citizenship worked with that, especially with it then becoming the USSR. But anyways, I wanted the idea of a displaced, mixed up, vagrant character, where you can't look point to him and say "this guy is from this place" Riding off all the turmoil of the Russian Empire comprising of so many different modern countries, then becoming the Soviet Union, then collapsing. I imagine this would spread some families very wide and they'll assimilate into their current surroundings, intermarry and all that, where eventually your name and what ethnicity you are don't quite match up. I personally don't think this is too impossible of an idea. I'm sorry if I'm just really cruddy at explaining how I thought it would go about @_@

In that case your best choice would be USA. Americans are nation of immigrants. Also you know American culture much better and ethnic background there more or less neutral matter.
Former Soviet Union in that case the worst possible variant for a moment, not only you don't know much about this countries, folks, history and culture, you don't know about serious nationalistic issues in relationships between Russia and former Soviet republics, notably - Ukraine and Belarus.
For example Ukrainian nationalistic propaganda [link]

Well I did say his background has gotten him a lot of grief. I apologize that I don't know a terrible amount of these issues. I do try to give some thought into my characters and apparently had not researched enough this time. However, I still think it he may not be an impossibility and hopefully still conveys the "displaced vagrant" feel I intended, even if you may not agree.
