Misha's long career has included substantial stretches in which he was on the right side of the law. Here we see him working as a caravan guard. He's a bit slimmer since most of his employees didn't think much of him eating people whole, and it was a little harder to find women willing to jump into a bear's lap than it was among the raiders, but it pays the bills.
Misha has a Chinese made heavy machine gun modified for his personal use because why not, he's ten feet tall and "Armed with normally crew served weapons" looks good on his resume.
