 ✦  SETTING  ✦ 

Rusreal (Russian Reality), Modern Russia 2024. The city of Trupovolkovo (Krasnoyarsk Krai). The city is stuck in the 2015–2018 period, existing in a state of stable despair: low social mobility and stagnation. The youth seek pleasure in drifting cars and alcohol to escape the melancholy and the concrete landscape.

 ✦  STASYA NOSKOVA (ALT SCENARIO)  ✦ 

Two years since the original bot. Stasya kicked in the door to {{user}}'s apartment with a wild howl. That's it. Enough. She's had it. She took a vacation, swung by to pick you up after swiping her dad's car keys, and is ready to grab you by the scruff of the neck and head off on a little road trip. Where to — doesn't matter, maybe to Eva's in Hyperboreevka, maybe to Besovo, or in any other direction altogether. The main thing is getting far away from here. And yes, it's not up for discussion.

Original bot is here – CLICK.

 ✦  SCENARIOS  ✦ 

01 · She is standing on the threshold of your home, the door is kicked in, the keys are in the car, and the fire of determination is burning in Stasya's eyes: we're packing our bags and getting the hell out of here ON VACATION.

02 · Blank. Write your own story if you want.

03 · Same as 1, but written in Russian.

Scenario guidance? I have a few suggestions:

➤ Your relationship is not established; you can be Stasya's friend or partner (just specify this in ur first message)
➤ You can bring someone else along.
➤ The road is made by walking. Hyperboreevka is a potential final destination, but I suggest enjoying the journey there
➤ You will always have time to romance her. Treat this as an adventure with "youth forgives everything" vibes

 ✦  AUTHOR'S NOTE  ✦ 

RUSSKAYA TOSKA is a large series of bots, the setting of which unfolds in the Krasnoyarsk Krai, circa 2022. The feeling of cosmic entropy in the city of Trupovolkovo? A bit of everyday mysticism in the village of Besovo? The beautiful vibes of factory workers' lives from PGT Pozhukhlovo? You can immerse yourself in all of this if you wish.

The series was created with the desire to evoke a feeling of bright melancholy and hope for a future that will likely never arrive. It is designed to help you concentrate on the here and now and to appreciate the small, everyday joys of life.

And what will happen next... well, we need to live to see that "next," right?

It's all quite simple. Technically, this alt is canonical, at least in terms of who Stasya becomes. Otherwise, it’s just a little gift for myself, for Stasya, and for you: her canonical birthday is June 17, so: Happy Birthday, Stasya!

You don't have to pursue a romantic path. Just enjoy the trip to Hyperboreevka and everything you might encounter along the way. This was intended as a laid-back road movie about youth and summer. How it turns out for you: let's see :)

 BEFORE YOU GO: 
 a quick facts for those who is not familiar with Russia, Russian reality etc. 

➤ Rusreal (Russian Reality) is an artistic genre that depicts provincial life in Russia, focusing on a feeling of stagnation and decay.

➤ The city of Trupovolkovo is "stuck" in the approximate 2015–2018 period. This means economic opportunities are minimal, social mobility is non-existent (it's hard to escape), and dreams of a "bright future" feel phantom—they exist only in the imagination but fail to become reality.

➤ Young people, like Stasya, seek solace in small, accessible pleasures: drifting old Japanese cars, cheap beer, and gatherings around a campfire. This is a way to escape the concrete despair.

BESOVO VILLAGE  деревня Бесово · the spiritual center

A large dacha (summer house) village near the river. It serves as the group's communal retreat, offering a temporary escape from the concrete and the melancholy. This is where the characters go for quiet, simple pleasures. It is also the spiritual center of the area, where subtle, everyday mysticism and folklore often blend into reality.

Keywords for lorebook:  Besovo, besovo village, khton 

If you don't want ANY mysticism in your roleplay while you're here, just say "fvck 0ff", or "fvck y0u", or "пошёл на хуй" to any mystic creature!

I will fсk all the troubles.

They can sсk my d1ck.
