- PDA contact biography

Background

 * Currently the main captain of Duty, and the most well-known of Duty's members. He most likely defected from the Ukrainian Army and joined Duty.

Overview

 * Starts the game as a Technician near the 100 Rads Bar even though his affiliation at that stage is to the Trader faction.
 * His PDA signal is therefore "cloaked" as is typical of Traders (even though Barkeep is paradoxically "uncloaked") but stands on the roof in the vicinity of the PDA signal for Voronin.
 * He later relocates and becomes a captain of the Duty faction and resides at the Duty HQ in Outskirts, where his contact bio is easily obtained.
 * He has some minor mission related interaction with the player during the main mission if the player has joined the Duty faction.
 * Becomes of crucial importance if the player wants to join Freedom in Freeplay.

Trivia

 * (v1.4007) Ivancov is the fifth Technician after Fox, Kulibin, Father Diodor, and Chef (storyline wise).
