Lowell Volkov - Character Bio

Name: Lowell James Volkov.

Age: 45 years old.

Identity: Cis male.

Family: Stanislav "Stan" and Clara Volkov (parents).

Personality: Intelligent, vengeful, envious, hateful, paranoid, arrogant.

Bio: Works as a museum educator and conservator at the Milwaukee Public Museum that specializes in prehistoric biology and megafauna (he's a dino nerd) that eventually turns to murder. As a short summary, he felt like the world was always against him, that his coworkers were always whispering little rumors about him, when in reality they never were and his paranoia was getting the best of him. So, fueled by this paranoia and rage, he murders those he feels have personally wronged him. He does this every full moon, until he's earned himself the nickname "The Big Bad Wolf" by the cops and press due to the brutal, animalistic nature of his kills.

He was afflicted with lycanthropy after scratching his hand on an artifact, and this leads to him becoming an arrogant asshole that's drunk on his new power and it lowkey becomes an allegory for toxic masculinity. So the 'big bad wolf' title initially comes from bystanders witnessing one of his murders on the street and believing him to be a man in a wolf mask.

Faceclaim: Bob Odenkirk

3, 7, & 13 for lowell

Thanks so much for the ask!!!! 💛

3. is your character an indoor or outdoor person?

Indoor! Lowell is v much an indoors guy. He just doesn't jive with outdoorsy activities, and prefers hiding inside with a book, video games, a movie, etc.

7. what is the thing your oc likes the most about themselves?

Lowell highly values the fact that he's intelligent, and that he KNOWS he's intelligent. He isn't necessarily cunning or witty, but he's book smart! He knows his shit, especially when it comes to his job, and a part of him feels jaded that his smarts aren't acknowledged enough by his coworkers (which, uhhh may be one of the factors as to why he ends up killing some of them oopsie). Bro is super proud of the fact he's a big ole dino nerd!

13. where would your OC like to go on a honeymoon?

Lowell is lame and would wanna go on a honeymoon to a place like London or Washington DC just so they could visit stuff like the Natural History Museum or the Smithsonian. 😭 As much as he tries, he was never (and will never) be much of a romantic.

"Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?"🌕🐺

A new werewolf character I created because a friend and I were talking about making characters based off of actors we liked in Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul and I uhhhhhh took it a little too seriously so Bob Odenkirk werewolf!👊😩

I've not a definitive story for Lowell yet aside from this: "Museum curator obtains power of lycanthropy and he uses it to boost his confidence--and commit crimes." Basically he is a nerd people push around that, through becoming a werewolf, turns into an over-confident jerk who uhhhhhhhhh murders?? And uses his lycanthropy as a power fantasy?? Because he has strength and power he never had before, and he gets too lost in the sauce?????

(And I'm thinking he got his lycanthropy from some artifact he worked with in the museum lmao)

But yeah!! Lowell is just an absolute stinker, and I hope yall like him!!🥺👉👈
