Background
From the start we noticed that Milosh (much like his nephew Lazaros) is rather...odd. While a clever Rom in his own way and a masterful musician at everything but the fiddle (at which he claims to be "the greatest fiddler for yards around"), Milosh is also quite eccentric.

A jovial, if rather strange Rom, he is quite popular in the Kumpania. He is always there to brighten our day with a jest or a song when things look grim.

He is also known for his musical rivalry with Magdalena, who while not being as talented at other instruments at he is, plays the fiddle FAR better than he does. Their rivalry is friendly, but perpetual.

Milosh is the brother of Oksana Voschanov Borodin (Katja's mother), which makes him uncle to Katja and first cousin to Nikolai.
