Character Name: Cerus
Race: Vantha
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Appearance: 5' 11". 178 lbs. Cerus is average for a Vanthan. Tall, even for his family. His hair grows out a dark brown with subtle shifts of a deep violet, bordering on blue in the right light. His eyes shift with his emotion as ever other lucky enough to be born in the north.
Birthplace: Avanthal
Current Residence: Sylira
Character Concept: As a small child, he realized that the best way to get attention was if he was entertaining his family. He couldn't sing, so that was out. And his brother already played several instruments beautifully, so all Cerus was left with was bringing the stories to life. The long nights would stretch out endlessly if there wasn't someone in the family to take the spotlight and do something with it. That idea was rooted in his subconscious at an early age, always somewhere in the background noise in his mind.* One night a story makes it's way to his Hold and it is a great re-telling of the visit from The Inverted a few holds over. Fascinated, he asks to be told the story again and again until he has it memorized. Somehow, he took it as a sign from Morwin.* He grows up collecting stories of the Inverted before leaving Avanthal on his 18th birthday. He sets off traveling after the troupe, for the first few months traveling out of Taldera before he could even begin trying to find the inverted. And then another half year of following them before finally catching up with them. For two long years he disguised himself for each performance, watching and trying to imitate them. Never speaking a word with them, or seeking out their company he does his best to avoid them, knowing it's far easier to watch his prey from a distance. Finally, he settled himself in Sylira and has lived mainly there for the past three years, working in various back alleys collecting what he can for his performances , and charming the rest of the things he needs. When he feels his is ready he will try and join the famed troupe.
This is where he starts out, his personality a gray slate. The sort who's hard to pin down. No one can say they know him, but he makes them feel like they do. He is constantly acting, and one can never tell if he's a real person or more of an amalgamation. Obviously, this makes close relationships harder for him than most, and no one really knows who is under the layers. Not even Cerus.
