Born in Moscow, Zar had a rough childhood filled with instability and hardship. Zar's parents, Nikoli and Natasha, were supporters of the Stalin regime in place in the Soviet Union in 1954. However, after Stalin put Nikoli's brother, Piotr, to death, Zar's parents became unhappy with the leader of the USSR. Nikoli and Natasha attempted to start a revolution, and gathered a group of highly specialized farm workers to help them covertly infiltrate the Kremlin. Nikoli entered Stalin's chamber and nearly killed him, until Natasha revealed she had been a spy working for Stalin the entire time she had been married to Nikoli. She killed Nikoli and next went to comfort her son, Zar. Natasha spun a lie to young Zar that his father had been killed by a drunken solider, and they continued to live a fairly happy lifestyle. However, around 1975, Zar discovered that his mother had in fact been the one to murder Nikoli. In anger, Zar killed his mother and fled the country. For many years, Zar had trained hard to become the greatest triathlete in Moscow. He used these skills to swim across the Pacific Ocean to The United States, hoping to begin life anew. He arrived in San Francisco on October 24, 1975. There he was picked up by the CIA and forced to become a covert double agent amongst the Soviet spy rings in the United States. Zar successfully apprehended fourteen different Russian spies for the US Government. After his retirement from CIA work, Zar became a carefree man-of-the-land. He lived in People's Park, in Berkeley, California for three years, experimenting with multiple different substances and sitting in on classes on Molecular Cell Biology and Astrophysics. Zar slowly worked his way south, throughout California before arriving in Fresno, a large farming city in the San Joaquin Valley. It was in Fresno that Zar truly began to feel at home. He became friends with the fitness guru, Rock, and eventually they had an incredible idea. Zar and Rock, along with friends Dorral Silverthorn, Big Zaddy, and John (One of the 30th Street Boys of Newport Beach) created an immortal workout video for those who do not have access to weights. It was in this video that Zar demonstrated his physical perfection, his massive vertical jump, and once again showed why he is one of the greatest triathletes of the all time. Curently, Zar can still be found relaxing in his pool after a long workout.
