Yuri Batkovich is one of those people who is both. He's a Spy; he literally kills people for a living up close and personal with a balisong to precious parts of their anatomy. He's also a wound-tight ball of social anxiety who craves acceptance from his team, no matter how much therapy and general mellowing he goes through.
He's a shadowy thing, a master of not being noticed. He uses knives in a modern-day setting to great effect. You can also send him to chainsmoking in a dark corner of a closet by forcing him to try and talk through his terribad stutter or even by just walking in on him doing pretty much ANYTHING involving food. He hates being seen eating or taking food (because it's not his it's the team's and he's being so fucking selfish by taking things that are not his).
He's less a predator outright than a overly proactive prey that preemptively strikes the real predator first with absofuckinglutely lethal force.
Physically, he can handle himself pretty well. He may be a little underweight and overtall, but he's learned to defend himself through necessity, as well as formally trained to do what Spies do best: insert knives into places that make people die painfully. He's very good at it. He also knows the hows of firearms, but he's never really felt comfortable with them. He may be on the waifish side of things, but he's gonna fuck you up sweet before you knock him out.
Yuri Batkovich, UIEEI special agent and general Spy-type. Totally uses the Cloak and Dagger, for the record.
