Appearance
Petrov's mix of Russian, Punjabi, Kenyan, and Shiite is quintessentially Torontonian. He is short (5'5") and various shades of curly and brown. He wears a full beard of somewhat loose ringlets and close cropped hair. His body hair is so thick and dense he is very nearly covered in fur. If it were much thicker it would be sideshow territory.
His fatalisic approach to life is an intensely energetic rampage toward competition - ideally mortal combat.
Backstory
Discovering a genius for maths at age 4 wasn't enough for young Petrov Singh. He also showed a deep and intuitive understanding of physics. At age 7 he was able to play around with the equations of general relativity. By 9 he was fiddling with quantum mechanics in various forms. When puberty hit - and it hit hard - Petrov's interests became much more... earthy. His small, powerful body requirered fierce competition just like his mind did. He played goalie in hockey and keeper in footy. His teen years began with a hormone fuelled rampage of sports and girls, physics apparently forgotten. This lead to extreme sports - ninja challenge/parkour/snowboard/skateboard) - and a lot of trouble. When he wasn't suffering from injuries, he was causing property damage, getting into life-threatening street fights, and causing pregnancies.
His family, the school system, and the law all agreed that Petrov was a danger to himsilf and others - not because he was insane, but because he demanded such extreme stimulation that he wreaked havoc. When he was 15 he was dumped into a juvenile detention facility. The other prisoners quickly learned that he was not someone to mess with. The deaths were never directly tied to him, but then, he had been studying. A lot.
Petrov detested life in 'The Compound' as he called it. Of necessity he got a lot better at hand to hand combat, and he worked out obsessively. Of boredom he began reading scientific journals, with special attention to attempts to produce a GUT (Grand Unified Theory) and to advances in material sciences. To everyone's surprise, he found a strange balance. Between driving his body incredibly hard in the gym and working on deep and pressing problems at the bleeding edge of theoretical physics, he found his sense of agency surfacing from the fog of adolescence. He took up MMA fighting to slake his thirst for aggressive and existential danger.
His critiques of pre-print and print papers becan to draw academic interest later that year. He tended to tear up papers for poor protocols and rhode you analysis, but on occasion he challenged established ideas in the field. Ultimately he wrote a paper proposing a significantly more accurate way to model chemical and physical properties of complex metamaterials. No university would touch him, but there were several corporations who were interested.
Petrov's 17th birthday was a quiet affair with his parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and siblings. They had welcomed him home two months before. When the Alphabet subsidiary called Soup offered him a job in their Pasta Research Lab (throw it at the wall, see what sticks) he discovered most of his legal problems vanished. They helped him fulfil his physical needs along with his mental needs, and for two years they got a huge amount of fantastic work out of him.
Then the Tetras arrived and The Corporate War began. Optimus, Google's biggest direct competitor, launched a coordinated series of economic, cyber, and physical attacks on AlphaSoup staff. As of 2034-05-02 1400UTC Petrov was not only out of a job: the AlphaSoup Labs were not usable after. Along with many of his colleagues, he fled for his life.
