Name: Sylas de Chevallier
Nickname/Alias: Sy Age: 19 Gender: Male Height: 5'11 / 180.3 cm Weight: 130 / 59 kg Race: Human Organization: None Rank: D [14 REP] Orientation: Straight Alignment: Neutral Appearance Physical Description: From the top, the first thing people notice about Sylas is his mid-length black hair, that has the "I woke up like this" look, while still being stylish. His hair sticks up in places at the top, and reaches down his neck in the back, while running down his nose in the front, with parts being made for his eyes. It is a beautiful mess overall. From under his mass of hair, is two piercing yellow eyes. Even while smiling, his eyes are shaped in a way that makes it look like he is always glaring or judging. The intensity of his gaze causes most to be uncomfortable, that is until they speak to him and see he is a jovial person. Being born a noble, Sylas had excellent care given to his looks as he grew up. Even now that effort shows with his perfectly straight teeth and soft skin. Any blemishes that showed, were quickly taken care of by his estate's healer. Sylas's build is slim and lanky, as he does little to no physical training, and spends all his efforts in maximizing his magical ability. He has enough muscle to deal with life's day to day requirements, but beyond that, he usually uses his magic to supplement his lack of strength. Clothing: Sylas's usual style is pretty plain. Most of the time he will wear a long sleeved black shirt with brown leather braces on the upper arm, and a pair of tan pants with two brown leather belts crisscrossing over his abdomen. Since he is always on the move, he wears dark brown leather boots that reach up his calves. His pants are tucked into the boots to reduce the sound of his movement. His whole plain outfit was made with sound in mind in general. There is no bagginess or loose cloth. This aids Sylas in his thievery to help avoid detection when sneaking about. When the situation demands it, or if he feels like, Sylas also wears a tan traveler's cloak with a furry blue collar and draw string. The cloak only covers his upper body, so it's more of an accessory than anything protective or warming. Picture: Personality With a smirk or a smile on his face most of the time, Sylas is a generally happy person. He is extremely outgoing, and will interact with almost anyone. He is easy to talk to and great at carrying conversations, making him quite the people person. This is due to his more manipulative nature however. He figures that the more people he meets and befriends, he more people he has to use for his own gain. "One can never have too many connections" is something he lives by. Although most people are there to be used by him, he can and does make true friends. In fact, Sylas is a very loyal person to those he gets close to. Since ditching his birth family, he has gone on to create his own family made of those he bonds with. He cares deeply for these people, and will defend them with his last breath. Getting to this point with people takes time for Sylas, and getting past his emotional barriers created by his family's treatment. Sylas lives for himself, and does whatever he wants in his goal for self growth and riches. If a job or mission does not have anything to do with him getting stronger, doesn't pay well, or is boring, he wants nothing to do with. This greed is part of what drives him as a person. The other side, is his goal to make a name for himself. Sylas practices his magical skill as much as he can, and will take any opportunity to test his progress in a battle. He doesn't actively seek combat, but when the occasion rises, he doesn't back out of it. He hates losing more than anything, so he always fights with everything he has, and does not give up. A few extra things about Sylas: His hobbies include: napping, gambling, magic training, reading, and planning his next big heist. His likes include: money, strength, sweets, cool weather, a good joke, and stories. His dislikes include: the rich, exuberance, people who act overly cool, weakness, losing, and hot weather. History Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, Sylas had an easy childhood. He was born into nobility, and had everything he could ever want. His family, the Chevalliers, lived in a lavish mansion on Chorus, in a city named after the clan. Their legacy spanned generations, with many notable mages and entrepreneurs. Their status granted them power on Chorus, with a few of the members holding government positions. If the Chevalliers wanted something, they made it happen. As with many of the elite on Chorus, there were always whispers of corruption within the family... Sylas was an only child, so the attention was always on him. That is, when he got attention. His parents were busy more often than not, leaving Sylas in the care of the estate employees. This was the start of the resentment that grew within the boy. As he grew up, he began hating the lifestyle he was being forced into. The business lessons. The lessons in being a gentleman. The music lessons. The scholars. He hated it all. He parents weren't even there, but they made sure to try to mold him into the person they wanted him to be. When Sylas reached his early teenage years, he began to rebel against his forced lifestyle. He would skip his lessons to practice his magic, or explore the places around his city that weren't filled with wealth. This led to Sylas's fascination with the seedier people and their way of life. Whenever visiting the underbelly Chevallier, Sylas made sure to wear less fancy clothing, as to not stick out, so he could interact with people seamlessly. These trips were usually just once a week, but over time became more and more common. By the time Sylas was sixteen, he had made many friends with street rats and thieves, and learned a lot from them. Despite being wealthy, Sylas would often join people in heists and other petty crimes, just because he found it fun. He learned really quickly that he was good at it too. At this point, Sylas spent more time with them, than his own family. His parents didn't bother to speak to Sylas about any of his behavior. To them, he didn't exist anymore. They had already stopped coming by the estate when his new behavior had originally started, so they had already given up on him. Sylas didn't care one way or the other. He didn't need his family. He had made a new one. He only used his family's connections and wealth when it was useful for him or his friends. At nineteen years old, Sylas had transformed into a new man. He lived for himself. Sylas now had his own dreams and ambitions. He wanted to advance his magic and become strong enough to upset the balance of the rich and powerful, as well build his own fortune through any means possible. His last name might be Chevallier, but he was his own man now, and will build his own legacy. Equipment&Items Name: Adventure Wear Class: C Description: Sylas's every day clothing was made with his lifestyle in mind. Crafted to aid in protecting him, the threads are densely packed and made with a fiber stronger than your average cotton and polyester. This includes Sylas's shirt, pants, and boots. Effect/Function: Acts as C class armor. Name: Cloak Class: C Description: A cloak Sylas wears as often as he doesn't. It is a small tan poncho type piece of clothing with a furry blue collar, that was made strong enough to act as a protective layer should he need it. It only covers his upper body, stopping at his abdomen, and leaving half his arms uncovered, making it more of a fashion piece than anything else. Effect/Function: Acts as C class armor. Stats - 108 Toughness: 7 Acuity: 9 Power: 7 Speed: 25 Magical Strength: 30 Magical Fortitude: 30 Earned Stat Points Earned: 24/32 Arc Points Earned: 0/0 Credits Earned: 150,700/160,700 Sources Character Creation 10,000 Credits Valentine's Day Event 3 SP Winter Staff Bonus 5 SP and 50,000 Credits 2 TP Purchase -10,000 Credits Easter Event : 12,000 Credits A Good Day Gone Bad : 3 SP, 6,000 Credits, and 7 REP An Elementary Heist : 1 SP, 2,700 Credits, and 2 REP BG Birthday 15 SP, 30,000 Credits, and 5 REP Summer Staff Bonus 5 SP and 50,000 Credits Skills&Disciplines Through his nineteen years, Sylas has picked up a few tricks and honed skills with his time in his estate and on the street. Crime Pays: Since hanging with the street rats and thugs of the lower cities on Chorus, Sylas learned their way of life. From lock picking, cheating in cards and dice, casing joints, and planning heists, Sylas had become quite the talented ne'er do well. Along with his magic, Sylas makes sure that what he wants, he gets. Decently Intellectual: While not a genius by any stretch, Sylas's brain works better than the average. He attributes this to the forced study from a young age. This is the only thing from his childhood that he does not hate completely. He has been taught in a vast variety of topics, though mostly focusing on magical application. Due to this, he is comfortable around other magic and generally figures things out quickly when met with a new type or usage. Heavy Sleeper: Sylas enjoys his sleep. So much so that he can sleep through almost anything. While most wouldn't consider this a skill, Sylas disagrees. He asks people if they would be able to sleep through a loud explosions and the sounds of intense battle. He can. And has! Magic Name: Vent Opposé: Orage Torrentiel (Oppresive Winds: Torrential Storm) Type: Wind Manipulation Proficiency: 4 Rank: 4 Description: Like the name implies, this magic gives Sylas the ability to create and manipulate the very air itself. He uses this magic to create powerful gusts of wind to either deal damage via slicing gales, or just forcefully moving whatever stands in his way. He is also able to use this magic to manipulate the air around himself to allow flight, or even feel the difference in the air in his area, to sense where things are and how they are moving. Sylas went with the thought process of "offense is the best defense" with his magic application, forgoing traditional defensive spells in lieu of blowing anything away with a condensed blast of air. All in all, this magic is mostly pure destructive power with a very few abilities to support him as he covers the battlefield in a storm. Sylas's magic emphasizes the ability to apply large amounts of force behind his wind, with a few of his spells having their sole existence be to increase how much wind is pumped into his other spells. It is due to this, that led to the naming of his magic. When Sylas uses his magic to it's maximum effectiveness, few things can stand in the way of the power he can generate. Visually, Sylas's magic doesn't have a color. Spells typically are visible via ripples in the air, and during larger scale spells, debris will make it quite obvious. Techniques: 5/5 + 2/2 Purchased Survoler - 3 Type: Supportive Range: Self Effect: By manipulating the air around himself, Sylas is able to freely control his movement, giving him the ability to fly. Currently Sylas is able to fly at his own speed +5, up to a Height of 25 Meters, and carry with him an additional 30kg without strain. Sylas may use this ability for 3 posts before triggering a 3 Post Cooldown. Vent Mordant - 4 Type: Offensive Range: 50 Meters Effect: Sylas gathers wind magic in his hands before launching it in a condensed funnel, akin to a tornado. This funnel can reach up to 15 Meters in height at the opening, and causes Serious damage cumulatively to those caught in its slicing winds. Due to the nature of the spell, it also pushes back what it hits, with an equivalent to a Power stat of 40. Sylas may choose to release this spell in smaller waves as well, letting him use it up to 3 times, with each funnel then dealing Serious damage and pushing with 30 Power. Sylas may use this ability over the course of 3 Posts (allowing Sylas to use the 3 charges independently should he choose) before triggering a Cooldown of 3 Posts. Cantrips: Rafale - 2 Type: Offensive Range: 15 Meters Effect: Sylas condenses wind magic into either an orb (Up to 1' in circumference) or sickle shape (Up to 2' in length), before releasing it towards his target to deal Moderate blunt or slicing damage depending on shape chosen. He can choose to split the magic into three projectiles instead, with each dealing light damage. He may use this once per post. Rapidité - 2 Type: Supportive Range: 10 Meters Effect: By manipulating the wind around himself, Sylas is able to move himself quickly in any direction in a short burst. This allows Sylas to cover this distance with a bonus of 20 speed. He may use this once per post.
