Description
Raymond Romanov was born in Russia on Valentines day in 1994. He has grey hair and usually wears anything black with a helmet or a mask. Raymond is very intelligent. He completed a degree in the medical field while balancing and finishing off flight school to get his pilot license. He is known for his great flying and was the "best pilot in his nation". He uses Rayven-1 as his call sign for radio communications with air traffic personnel. Raymond has a younger cousin, Raycardo Flick, who was born in the USA.
Raymond decided to has a few jobs and is one of the founders and co-owners of Betta Life Pharmaceuticals. Raymond's charms and his friendly nature works very well to disguise his criminal life. He is a very valuable member of Cleanbois and Pegasus Concierge. His reputation in the criminal world has grown quickly, effectively creating a very reliable network to reach for information, resources and jobs that aid with his criminal endeavours. His constant motivation to progress in criminal activity has earned him the affectionate title of "The Grinder" of Cleanbois.
One of his major vices is his addiction to gambling at the Diamond Resort and Casino, admitting that "it is an issue". Common phrases heard in the casino are "Raymond is addicted to gambling", "I want to gamble more" and "I got no control". Raymond also has a habit of constantly hitting on any female he encounters, who become smitten (earning their "wife badge") he had insisted he was a "new man" after meeting his then girlfriend, Kitty Dream, but he wasn't as changed as he thought. Now he is back to collecting wives after their breakup.
Raymond is also known for his obsession of motorcycles, specifically the Akumas. He can never resist the urge of stealing bikes and can spend up to an hour stashing them all around the city to be used for all different types of getaways. Additionally, he is infamous for his lengthy planning, which some people, including Irwin Dundee and Lang Buddha, have expressed their distaste for. Despite their criticisms, Raymond's intricate plans have helped them succeed in many jobs, despite the consistent scuff they encounter. His "Ride-or-Die" mentality has saved his friends, specifically Lang Buddha on multiple occasions and, is in fact, one of the contributing factors to earning respect and admiration from Lang Buddha, earning his place in the Cleanbois.

Cleanbois
With Raymond's uprising in the criminal world, he was subsequently invited to more jobs with a crew, mostly include Lang Buddha, Tony Corleone, Nino Chavez and Humberto Antonio Donato Pecorino at that time. As Raymond's connections to information and resources continue to grow, there is without a doubt that his value to the crew continues to grow too. Following their successful vault heist on May 27, 2021, Raymond was recruited into the Cleanbois, together with Yuno Sykk. The current crew now is made of individuals with different complementary skills, which includes Raymond (The Grinder), Lang (The Planner), Tony (The Driver), Yuno (The Hacker/Cheat Code) and Mickey (The Planner).

They often share light-hearted banter and tender chatter, the group displays a synergy that other crews struggle to find. This bond of theirs is demonstrated over and over again when Raymond would put his life on the line whenever he can to save any member of the crew. They even spend time with each other doing things outside their line of work, including the "'Cleanbois 'FEMLY Friday Games Nights" and their recent trips to "Las Venturas" (or Las Vegas).

Raymond was put on boat duty, waiting for when Yuno would jump from the car at the Tuner Shop to pick him up from the water. There was a close call where it seemed Yuno had hit the other side wall and was downed, but he quickly jumped into the boat and they were off. The cops did not catch the swap to water so getting Yuno to the plane was easy. The hard part came when Ray had to go back into the chase to help Lang and Tony. He swapped to his bike to help on land, but want back to a boat when the boys said they might be good. Tony, Lang, and Mickey had lost vision from cops at Bahama Mamas and asked Ray to get a 4 door.

Everyone in the crew made it out with $460k. | October 15th, 2021 |
