===General===
 
===General===
  
Cyrus appears to be a very mild mannered, kind and friendly individual. He can often be find traveling the streets of whatever town he inhabits in search of anyone that needs help. From the richest king to the poorest beggar, in his eyes no one deserves to be denied assistance. When on patrol he tends to wear his armor, shoddy and well worn though it may be. He's seen with more traditional, conservative clothing otherwise.
+
Cyrus appears to be a very stoic individual. Never known to stay in one place for too long, he can often seen wandering the streets of various cities in various parts of the world. He doesn't typically trust himself alone with others due to one reason or another, and so can rarely be found traveling with companions unless there is more than one with him. He bathes when he gets a chance in a river or a stream, but otherwise he keeps to himself.
  
 
===Appearance===  
 
===Appearance===  
  
Cyrus stands a tad tall at just under six feet. He tries to maintain a perfect posture, at least while on duty. When off duty, Cyrus is noticeably more relaxed. His eyebrows aren't too thick and are generally set to give a mild mannered, overall calmed appearance. However, at times the inner halves can curve sharply should anyone manage to actually anger him. His eyes are rounded with an aqua blue coloring to them; a stark contrast to the straight, raven black hair that frames his features. His face shows no signs of permanent scarring; perhaps he's either really good or really lucky. His facial features, though touched by youth, denote strength and bravery, complete with a roman nose and broad cheekbones.

However, at times the inner halves can curve sharply should anyone manage to actually anger him. His eyes are rounded with an aqua blue coloring to them; a stark contrast to the straight, raven black hair that frames his features. There is a sadness to them, or at least the one that can be seen thanks to the patch over the left. Should the patch ever be removed, it would show the remnants of a nasty scar and a pale, grey eye beneath. The tips of his hair have gone grey, but he doesn't appear to be remotely old nor does it seem to be dyed. His face is marred with various scars from previous battles and altercations. His facial features, though touched by youth, denote strength and bravery, complete with a roman nose and broad cheekbones.  
  
His skin is only slightly tanned and his musculature is not overly defined, but apparent. His shoulders are broad, likely giving him more of an intimidation factor than he rightly deserves. As of now, his armor is worn and shoddy. The pieces themselves are nothing special, bronzed and a little rusted in places though he obviously strives to keep them as clean as possible. Strapped to his left hip is a simple steel longsword, no special design or elegant writing anywhere to be seen. It seems to have long since passed its time, the blade patched and nicked in various places. On his back an equally used bronze scutum, complete with its own scratches and dents. Regardless of the poor wear of his armor, Cyrus wears it with pride and puts it to the best use he can.

===Behavior===
 
===Behavior===
  
Cyrus comes from humble beginnings, and the way he acts more than reflects this. He doesn't spend money unless he absolutely has to and, more often than not, would rather give it to those in need than keep it for himself. He is incredibly respectful to all those around him and does his best to ensure he isn't stepping on anyone's toes. Although determined, Cyrus has a very innate passive nature and prefers to talk things out rather than draw his weapon if at all possible. He does not see this as a weakness, however. It simply means that should his weapon ever come to the ready, he knows it's for a just cause.
+
Due to the various trials his life has gone through, while he typically keeps the majority of the aforementioned traits, he tends to keep more to himself. He helps people, but in exchange for information. He's still willing to go out of his way in service of others, but only in certain cases. He has one particular goal in mind and will let nothing stand in his way to ensure it is done. He still smiles where he needs to, laughs when he has to, and is willing to make due the service of others.
  
He's more than happy to converse with men and women alike and treats both equally regardless of the race, nation, or social class they hail from. This does not mean that he'll act informally should he cross paths with a noble; he just doesn't see the coincidence of one's birth to be at all telling of their true worth to the world. If he comes off as inexperienced, it's because he is. Despite having basic training from his parents, Cyrus has never really ventured out of the Shroud until now. He takes everything he sees with the wide-eyed fascination of youth and is more than willing to learn what he can about the world and the people in it. One particular downside is that Cyrus is incredibly trusting of others. While he is cautious of others when he feels the time calls for it, he is willing to give many the benefit of the doubt. He struggles to see the good in everyone, even if it isn't particularly there. This may land him in more trouble in the future, but it was generally true more often than not in the small villa he hailed from.
+
While he was once willing to give others the benefit of the doubt, life has been hard on the poor young man. He no longer sees the good in others, no longer expects the best out of people by default, and instead puts his guard up around most. While once inexperienced in combat, and still is judging by the way he recklessly carries himself in battle, he's learned what he knows purely by trial and error. Luck has been the only thing to keep him alive as long as he has, much to his dismay.
 +
 
 +
Regardless of his general outlook, Cyrus can still occasionally be seen doing acts of kindness. He gives any extra money has has to the poor or beggars he happens to come across, treats everyone equally, and willingly throws himself in danger to help others. It doesn't take much at a first glance to tell that he is a sad soul; a once proud man brought low.

While Cyrus doesn't prefer to do battle, he will should the definite need arise. When he does, he prefers to act without doing definite harm to his opponents. This generally means that he'll try to keep his guard more often than not and, rather than go for killing blows, attempt to disarm his opponent and leave them disabled. While he doesn't necessarily have the proper skill or training to wield his sword and shield, he at least knows how to get himself behind them and keep the enemy busy. Perhaps in the future he'll learn to better use his hand-me-down arms.
+
Cyrus is no longer the same man he once was. While he once often gave pause at the idea of striking someone down, he hesitates no longer. His weapon of choice is the shoddy claymore strapped to his back. It is nicked and chipped in various places, and while he does try to keep it sharpened, it is often times well worn. This makes cutting down foes relatively difficult--and gruesome. If it finds its target, the blade is more likely to smash many times than it is to directly cut. When it does, it is often only partially so.
 +
 
 +
His combat style is more than a little unorthodox. He was clearly never trained with the blade judging by the way he wields it. Rather than use any sort of technique, he seems to act and react to whatever he sees before him, often throwing himself headlong into danger without a care for his personal well-being. Aside from obvious weaknesses this would have, he has no sight out of his left eye and tries to keep people more so in front of him or to his right.
  
Despite not actually being a knight, Cyrus strives to become one. As such, he follows a strict code of chivalry passed down to him by his mother and father. They often told him tales of heroic knights and epic battles when he was a child growing up and he seeks to emulate it as much as possible. As such, he will gladly accept any duel or challenge formally given to him. Furthermore, he strives to never turn away someone in need or turn his back on an enemy. He'll not strike an unarmed opponent and, should the need arise, willingly fight to his last breath.
+
Despite all of this, during rare moments, one can see him standing proud and tall as he used to.

Character

General

Cyrus appears to be a very stoic individual. Never known to stay in one place for too long, he can often seen wandering the streets of various cities in various parts of the world. He doesn't typically trust himself alone with others due to one reason or another, and so can rarely be found traveling with companions unless there is more than one with him. He bathes when he gets a chance in a river or a stream, but otherwise he keeps to himself.

Appearance

His eyebrows aren't too thick and are generally set to give a mild mannered, overall calmed appearance. However, at times the inner halves can curve sharply should anyone manage to actually anger him. His eyes are rounded with an aqua blue coloring to them; a stark contrast to the straight, raven black hair that frames his features. There is a sadness to them, or at least the one that can be seen thanks to the patch over the left. Should the patch ever be removed, it would show the remnants of a nasty scar and a pale, grey eye beneath. The tips of his hair have gone grey, but he doesn't appear to be remotely old nor does it seem to be dyed. His face is marred with various scars from previous battles and altercations. His facial features, though touched by youth, denote strength and bravery, complete with a roman nose and broad cheekbones.

His skin is only slightly tanned and his musculature is not overly defined, but apparent. His shoulders are broad, likely giving him more of an intimidation factor than he rightly deserves. He often wears a set of well-worn armor beneath his traveling coat. Strapped to his back is a simple Gridanian claymore, no special design or elegant writing anywhere to be seen. It seems to have long since passed its time, the blade patched and nicked in various places.

Behavior

Due to the various trials his life has gone through, while he typically keeps the majority of the aforementioned traits, he tends to keep more to himself. He helps people, but in exchange for information. He's still willing to go out of his way in service of others, but only in certain cases. He has one particular goal in mind and will let nothing stand in his way to ensure it is done. He still smiles where he needs to, laughs when he has to, and is willing to make due the service of others.

Combat

General

Cyrus is no longer the same man he once was. While he once often gave pause at the idea of striking someone down, he hesitates no longer. His weapon of choice is the shoddy claymore strapped to his back. It is nicked and chipped in various places, and while he does try to keep it sharpened, it is often times well worn. This makes cutting down foes relatively difficult--and gruesome. If it finds its target, the blade is more likely to smash many times than it is to directly cut.

Aside from obvious weaknesses this would have, he has no sight out of his left eye and tries to keep people more so in front of him or to his right.

Despite all of this, during rare moments, one can see him standing proud and tall as he used to.

X'unmei Noh - When Cyrus first managed to leave his small town home in the Shroud, he set his sights for Gridania. His parents had used what connections they had to land him a position as a guard with the Order of the Twin Adders. Unfortunately, Cyrus was late to his meeting due to losing his way during the trip.. and then again after reaching Gridania due to being unable to find his Inn. However, the fates seem to work in mysterious ways and this time was no different. He happened upon X'unmei there, a Seeker simply trying to make it on her own. Despite Cyrus having nothing to give her in return, she showed him the way to the Inn out of the kindness of her heart. He couldn't let this go unrewarded and offered her to stay in his room with him. While it was incredibly awkward at first and Cyrus may have had to tell a few white lies to ensure she was able to stay, their friendship eventually grew into something far more. Unfortunately for him, events led to a breaking of their eventual engagement and Unmei left him for another. Rather than hold any outward contempt for the woman, Cyrus is still very much in love with her and wishes her all the best in her new life.

Rumors

Common Rumors

  • "He's strong, but doesn't have much in the way of technique."
  • "I remember he tried out for the Sultansworn and didn't make the cut. Used to patrol the streets on his own, but now he's gone for days at a time."
  • "He's improving somehow. I don't know how or when he's getting the training, but he seems.. different."

Moderate Rumors

  • "Used ta see 'im walkin' 'round all th'time wi' this cute redheaded Seeker girl. Dunno what happened, but I ain' seen 'im with 'er since."
  • "Whenever he visits the Quicksand he's always asking about some slave traders. Risky, openly asking for things like that. Surprised someone doesn't gut him in the street."
  • "He wanders all over the place. I've seen him in Ul'dah and Limsa Lominsa. Used to be in Gridania a lot, but these days I guess he doesn't have much reason to go there anymore."

Rare Rumors

  • "Overheard some woman talking to him the other day.. mentioned something about Ishgard."
  • "He wasn't a native to the Shroud like he tells everyone. Or at least his parents weren't. One day they just showed up in town to buy supplies and kept coming back. Damn shame what happened to them."
  • "They say his family used to live in the Shroud. Yeah, used to. Overheard him saying they got slaughtered by some bandits. He was a pretty wholesome youth, but a kind of thing like that'll make someone grow up real quick I guess."
