Overview

 * Boris hangs around near the trash bins next to the entrance of 100 Rads Bar.
 * He tells a story of trying to find the lost build of one of the oldest games which was thrown out of the window by one of the developers and trash hauled from Lvov to the Zone.

Trivia

 * The character appears to be a reference to a YouTuber called LifeofBoris who posts videos on slavic culture and cooking as the Life of Boris, occasionally making gaming videos, in which S.T.A.L.K.E.R is one of his favourites.
 * Players who wish to acquire the Eliminator that he carries should obviously do this 'quietly' with the knife.
