Co/Create Details

for Jora Andreevich Backstory Artwork

CREATIVE PROMPT

The character of Jora is a Roscosmos cosmonaut under Alma's command on the International Space Station. A humorless bureaucratic infighter who has reached his career summit via betrayals of his colleagues and neglect of his family, Jora has only recently begun to acknowledge the regrets behind his empty victories. He is a child of the late Soviet era who became a professional just as his country came apart, so when an opportunity for advancement or to grab hold of a high profile project presented itself, Jora was utterly ruthless, and more often than not, successful, due in no small part to his assistant Kolya’s contributions.
