The first of the characters is the Volgograd (former Stalingrad) sturgeon fish. It features a uniform inspired by the Cossack style, and a necklace of black caviar, a delicatessen abundant in the area. The sword in the right hand is a reference to the great monument of The Motherland, the symbol of Volgograd. Finally, the sturgeon carries the smoking pipes behind its back, as a representation of the numerous factories of the city.
