General Zaroff is a Russian or, more precisely, a
Cossack. This means that he is from an ethnic group that lived in the Russian Empire
and had a reputation for being very brutal.
We are told
that he is quite tall, and really very handsome. However, there is something about him
that seems bizarre. His hair is pure white, which shows that he is getting on in
years. At the same time, though, his eyebrows and mustache are dark black. So are his
eyes.
As a person, Zaroff is very sophisticated. He likes
to do stuff like humming bits of opera and he tries to act very
cultured.
