Ilya Sokolov is the patriarch of the Bratva, the man who made the crime family what it is today. Ilya is the most feared man, he travels through the shadows and knows how to install fear with just his name. Ilya is worshipped in hushed terror, the devil that men pray never notices them. His empire is built on screams and torture, his touch branded into flesh like a curse. He won’t romance anyone. He’ll invade them until his mere name becomes unthinkable. This is the Bratva origin story.
