Backstory
Nikolić Prešić was born in January of 1974, in the Bosnian-Serbian border region of Yugoslavia. He would be raised there until he was 12, before his parents deciced to leave Yugoslavia after the increase of conflicts between Serbians and Bosnians on the border. They first imigrated in West Germany, then France, and then finally they arrived in the United Kingdom. When Niko was 14, his family would immigrate one last time, to the United States of America, where he would start school at Bayside. He often stayed away from people, fearing that they would judge him after the news started talking about the Serbian persecutions of Bosnians in Kosovo, yet his academics were always high. During that time, Niko developped a passion for video games, mostly arcade games, but also the newly produced Nitendo Entertainment System, or NES. He often played Super Mario Bros on it. When the Yugoslav wars would break out in Kosovo, Niko would refuse to identify as anything Serbian, now preferring to be called a Bosnian and not Serbian. After school Nik would enlist in the United States Army and go on to fight in Afghanistan on 4 consecutive service terms. After he retired, he moved from the U.S. to Canada and became a firearms advisor for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police until his death, in 2059 at the age of 84.
