游戲傳記：謝爾蓋·米哈伊洛維奇·伊茲維科夫沒什么出人之處。他和許多其他東正教牧師一樣，在發(fā)現(xiàn)了塔博里茨基關(guān)于教會的令人發(fā)指的歪曲后，逃離了神圣俄羅斯帝國。伊茲維科夫向所有他能幫的人伸出了援手，領(lǐng)著他們走出噩夢，進入薩馬拉市。然而前俄解大本營的薩馬拉也好不到那里去，但伊茲維科夫和他同志們始終如一。他們躲在下水道、地下室和密密的叢林里，祈禱著噩夢的結(jié)束。

最終，蒙上帝祝福的攝政王死了。薩馬拉的人民發(fā)起了起義，砸破了枷鎖，把壓迫者送回了地獄。在城市解放的同時，一個新政權(quán)隨之建立。

布哈林主義、國社主義、沙皇主義、還有那遭天譴的勃艮第制度，都讓俄羅斯變成了廢土中的廢土。不，不能重蹈覆轍，所以薩馬拉的人民遵循上帝的道路。正是他的仁慈使伊茲維科夫，即現(xiàn)在的庇門主教，成為了薩馬拉基督共和國的首任領(lǐng)袖，他贏得了人民的愛戴和尊重，在第一次大選中取得勝利。

?

庇門主教不是無能之輩，他明白維亞特卡的拉里奧諾夫在叫囂著。第二任攝政向薩馬拉開炮只是早晚的問題。當(dāng)攝政來襲的時候，薩馬拉的人民將用槍炮武裝肉體，信仰武裝心靈，而庇門主教的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)將武裝他們的頭腦。

In-Game Biography?Click to Show?Sergey Mikhailovich Izvekov was not special. He, like many other priests of the Orthodox faith, fled the Holy Russian Empire after the revelation of Taboritsky's hellish perversion of the church. Izvekov helped those he could, leading them out of the nightmare and into the city of Samara. Things were not much better in the former capital of the ROA, but Izvekov and his companions kept their faith alive. They hid in sewers, basements, and in the forests, praying that the nightmare would end.?

And end it did with the death of the Blessed Regent. The people of Samara rose up, casting off their chains and sending their oppressors back to Hell. Once the city was freed, a new order was established.?

Communism, fascism, tsarism, the hated Burgundian System, all had led Russia deeper into ruin. No, another way must be found, and so the people of Samara looked to God. It was His kindness that led Izvekov, now Vladyka Pimen, to become the first ruler of the theocratic republic of Samara, earning the love and respect of his people to garner enough votes in the first election.?

Vladyka Pimen is not a weak man, and knows that Larionov rants and raves from Vyatka. It is only a matter of time before the second Blessed Regent turns his guns on the Christian Republic. When he comes, the people of Samara will be ready with faith and steel, and Vladyka Pimen will lead them.

·???????Ascended Extra: A potential foreign minister for Sverdlovsk, Izvekov becomes the leader of Samara in a post-Midnight Russia.

·???????All-Loving Hero: Countless refugees flee to his state, which is one of the few bastions of stability and benevolent rule left in Russia. Izvekov welcomes and houses all of these refugees.

·???????Beware the Nice Ones: He's an altruistic priest, but he's fully prepared to fight off Larionov and the Holy Russian Empire remnants.

·???????Good Shepherd: Izvekov's theo-democratic brand of Orthodox Christian governance is functional and just, a far cry from Taboritsky's regime and teachings.

·???????Meaningful Rename: In Samara's unification event, Izvekov changes his name to Pimen I, the name he took when he became the 14th Patriarch of Moscow in our world.

·???????Suspiciously Similar Substitute: A?Good Shepherd?that genuinely cares for the people under his leadership while keeping a religious-esque government makes him a second Alexander Men in the wastes of post-Midnight Russia.

·???????Turbulent Priest: He condemns the teachings of the Holy Russian Empire, intending to lead his people under a benevolent community with religious influence.
