⏵ character information
name: Pavel Igorevich Morozov
canon: Metro: Last Light
age: Late twenties to early thirties
canon point: Red Square, after facing off with Artyom
history: Here.
abilities: Pavel is no superhuman, but he's decent at fighting — hand to hand combat, using firearms and knives, the works on par with your somewhat above average stalker in the Metro. He's seasoned at killing mutant spiders, watchmen, and an occasional Nazi, so can think on his feet in a sticky situation. He is clever and resourceful, flexing his survival skills in the surface's wasteland, and stealthy enough to go (mostly) unseen through a populated enemy base. Pavel can also be modestly persuasive and uses his charisma to get by when all else fails.
personality:
Suggestible, good-humored, and easygoing, at surface level, Pavel is the least likely candidate for one to view as a threat. Yet his talkative and friendly nature can be disarming, so much so that it might be possible to forget he is an officer of the Red Line.
The Red Line, one of the largest factions within the Metro, is a political group and pseudo-military operating under the communist regime of Maxim Moskvin. They oversee a large portion of the Metro's territory, aptly named the Red Line for the continuous rail line of stations they assume control over. While not much is known about his past before the Red Line, Pavel was not born in the repurposed Moscow Metro. He was born on the surface and although he was very young when everyone fled underground, he does remember some snippets of what life was like before nuclear Armageddon. Like everyone else who experienced it at a young age, it has shaped nearly every aspect of his upbringing, beliefs, and disposition. So, in Pavel's case, this led him to align himself with the Reds.
"Order," he says in a drunken rant, "Order is all that matters. That's our salvation." In the new world, condensed into the ever-warring factions of the Metro, order is a rare sight. Pavel is near fanatical about his devotion to socialist ideology, and suitably enough, he also expresses his love for the novel "The Three Musketeers" with their motto of "one for all and all for one" often. In fact, Pavel is so dedicated to this mindset that he is willing to sacrifice whatever it takes to protect the Red Line, even if that means betraying friends and acquaintances or losing his life in the process.
His relationship with Artyom of the Spartan Rangers adequately displays this. Pavel befriends him after they both happen to be captured by Nazis. After they escape together and Artyom saves him from hanging for his crimes, Pavel takes him out to celebrate over drinks in Theater Station only to spike his cup and turn him over to General Korbut who is looking for intel on the Spartan base D6 to further a plot of communist takeover. It only makes sense. Pavel is shown to be an amiable person who will strike up a conversation with anyone, is quick to casually refer to others as "bro" (чувак) and "comrade" (Товарищ), and is seemingly always making friendly deals and agreements. He also loves the company of women, a frequent purveyor of the Red Line's working girls, although his hastiness to jump from cozying up to a woman to calling her a bitch makes it quite clear in which light he truly values the companionship. But like his inclination to throw non-Red Line truthsayers under the train, most of these outwardly chummy tendencies of his only go so deep.
However, there are exceptions. He says he really thought of Artyom as his friend and wants him to join the Red Line, and even when he mocks and provokes him in their inevitable clash, the admiration and rapport he felt with Artyom really was not a fabrication. The player is granted the ability to choose whether to kill or spare Pavel in the Red Square after the Dark One shows Artyom a vision of Pavel being dragged to his death by vengeful ghosts. The Dark One describes his aura as not angry, just "sad." Ultimately, Pavel doesn't allow himself the freedom of embracing a personal life of his own; he lives and dies solely for the benefit of the Red Line and that is by choice.
