Igor

Igor belongs to the nobility of Warren, and lives in Vikram Castle with royalty. He is a psychologist and teacher.

His first appearance is in the book, Arturur and Angel.

Personality
Igor is hard headed and downright mean. He has little patience for others, but manages to stare long and hard into any topic that he's personally interested in. A very selfish man, he only listens to his friends Pip, Aldrin, Egan, and Inigo, who have long declared Igor to be their leader. Since Arturur has arrived, Igor has been having strange personality changes, which Arturur interprets as signs of a kinder, gentler side to Igor that others aren't aware of. Despite Igor finding Arturur to be endlessly frustrating, he has recently been showing him kindness as he begins to understand him better.

History
Igor grew up in Warren, living a comfortable life at the castle. His childhood friends Pip, Aldrin, Egan, and Inigo are not nobles, but were children from a neighbouring town. They would see each other often and have always been good friends.

When Igor was nineteen, he started having severe psychological problems that, over the course of a few years, ended up consuming him. This lead him to becoming very insane and one of the craziest people in not only Warren, but all of Alastair as well. Once a man of some patience, he could no longer control his need for power and respect, becoming very vicious in ways he never was before.

Igor had never heard anything but bad news about his condition until the arrival of Prince Arturur, who immediately claimed that Igor was not what he appeared to be and that was incurable. Interacting with Arturur caused peculiar changes in his behaviour that were unexplainable, but no one has believed that such changes really matter or have truly impacted him. He thinks negatively about Arturur's unusual psychological practices, and has felt like the boy needs to be broken into a proper psychologist.

Initially, Igor and Arturur did not get along well at all. In fact, Igor couldn't even stand hearing his name, nevermind seeing him in person. But, over time, he has become interested in Arturur's psychology and wants to help him progress towards more normal behaviour, ideas, and practices. Arturur has not responded well to this, always resisting psychological intervention.
