Ilya Bogovoy is a monk from the harsh north country.  For most of his 30-something years he has been satisfied with the monastic life - praying, studying, growing vegetables, and praying some more.  Things changed only a few weeks ago, when in his studies he came across some records indicating the location of an undefined relic of Vasily Bogatyryn, the knight errant who had founded this monastery around 200 years ago.  Ilya quickly gathered together the belongings he thought necessary for the journey and came south to the archmage's ruins where this mysterious relic should still be.

I'm not going to type it out because it would be annoying to read, but Ilya speaks in what we in this world would call a moderate Russian accent.
