Character Name: The Psiioniic (AU!)Using the name of Cyrus I. Onikous
Fandom: Homestuck--Harry Potter AU
Gender: Male
Age: 32
Canon Point: Let's say he's from the end of the current year at Hogwarts (i.e. June 2012?)
Power: Ilmater. Cyrus had a somewhat troubled past, in that he was cursed and was forced to kill his father when he was a late-teenager, and he had it haunt him ever since. Because of this, he'd been tied down to trying to make amends for what he had done, and what he truly needs is some comfort, and such could probably be found with Ilmater's blessing.
Orientation: Bisexual. He had thought for most of his life that he was asexual since sex interested him very little, but he met someone at Hogwarts and he started to embrace his sexual side.
Suitability: This is valid for Cyrus anyways, even if he is over 18. He's very awkward about sex, as it both terrifies him and excites him at the same time. He's only ever had six partners in his lifetime, three men, three women, and it's always been just a wee bit strange for him. So being in a city like Cypher is going to enable him into realizing that yes, sex is an essential thing.
History: I am just going to link his app for Sorting Hat here, to better explain his history.
Personality: Cyrus is, in a nutshell: a stuck up, academic, socially awkward intellectual who would rather be stuck reading the same book for all eternity than have to associate with people outside of his intelligence level. He has an eternal stick up his ass about his levels of intellect, since he's always been one of those "attractive-smarty-pants-types" and he makes a point of making sure that everyone knows it. He has a very keen habit of speaking down to people, as he knows that most of what he says goes completely over other peoples heads. So he indeed knows that he is very intelligent and has absolutely no problem making sure that other people know it. In short, he's brainy and he knows it.
However, behind that intellectual douchebag exterior, Cyrus is possibly the single most socially anxious adult you have ever met. Chances are, if he finds someone to be remotely attractive, or remotely interesting, he will choke up, lose track of thought and completely forget everything and just panic. He's entirely socially anxious and he can't even stand to show off around some people at times. The moment he gets even slightly uncomfortable, he's a wreck and the conversation ends while he runs back to his own quarters until the threat of embarrassment is gone. This all stems from him being bullied a lot as a child, and being teased for nearly everything he did or said.
He actually has a very stern, no-nonsense attitude towards most people, usually students since he is a teacher. Though, it is not surprising if he winds up trying to parent/boss around people older than him. He has a love of order, organization, and a lot of those other stuffy, old fashioned terms that no one really values anymore. And that's just another reason why he's so anxious all the time. He's surrounded by people who don't value olde tyme rules and morals.
In addition to that, Cyrus is actually a bit of a bleeding heart. He's secretly a sucker for anything and everything romantic. It's mostly because he's had such an awkward love life himself. (Lost his virginity to his best friend and his best friend's fiancee, knocked up his college girlfriend at 19, became the boytoy of a cougar at 22, had a rather aggressive relationship with a former school bully at 26, and then at 31 became involved with a man twice his age who he's still got feelings for.). But this also applies to his love of seeing happy families, since it's something he's incredibly nostalgic for.
TL;DR: Cyrus is a very snooty, smarty-pants who speaks down to people who are obviously less intelligent than he is. But the moment he is confronted with an awkward situation or someone who seems smarter than he is, he tenses up and becomes very estranged and would much rather run away and hide in his bedroom and read Pride and Prejudice, or watch Casablanca.
Abilities: Well, Cyrus is a wizard from the Harry Potter universe. SO HE IS MAGICAL! Essentially whatever spells and skills that are canon within Harry Potter, he has the ability to perform. In addition, Cyrus is a rune wizard and is incredibly skilled with handing magic and ancient runes. He has even carved some of the runs into his skin (although he keeps them covered) so that he can utilize runic magic without having to perform a ritual or casting a spell. He tends to use the runic magic similar to that of psionics like his Homestuck canon counterpart.
Appearance: The man, not the woman.
RP Sample [First Person]: Ladies and gentlemen.
It has recently come to my attention that there seems to be a very high number of intellectuals in my presence, and to this I say bravo.
However, much to my dismay, I have discovered just as many ill-educated folks around as well. How dreadful.
But I digress.
I was hoping that if someone would be so kind, if they could direct me towards a library of sorts. Or an apothecary. Or something that an active mind could busy himself with.
I'm not one to really enjoy sleeping around recreationally, so I figure I might as well preoccupy myself until the rumored madness strikes me, and I fancy myself a lay.
That being said.
Directions to any of the aforementioned places, or anywhere equally as intellectually enthralling would be delightful.
All the best,
Cyrus I. Onikous
RP Sample [Third Person]: Cyrus was trying to remain calm and collected, like he usually tried to be under this sort of situation. He had managed to check himself into an inn, and he'd managed to have his little hammerspace wallet on him--storing a few of his favorite books within it--and he settled himself into the room. He wasn't too thrilled to be here. Nothing screams irony like being summoned from a rune circle into a strange city of gears and whatnot.
But, he'd already heard about the plan from locals. He--like all the others here--was to sleep around with people in order to please some raging douchebag in the sky. And what a time for his lover not to be here. He sighed a bit as he sat upon the bed, reading through one of his more worn out copies of ancient runes and their medicinal uses. He'd often seen himself as being incredibly loyal to those whom he was romantically interested in, and the only exception ever was having a sort of only some-what active sex life with his best friends while he was dating other people. And more often than not? It was acceptable!
But this? This was just awkward. Cyrus had tried to apparate back to England, but it hadn't happened. It was a bit annoying really. But he supposed the worst that happened was he had sex. Granted, it wasn't really his thing, and he'd much prefer his lover to be here so he wouldn't feel so guilty. But it would be out of complete necessity.
Although, there was the prospect of allowing the desire to build up and drive him mad. That was always a possibility.
But no, oh no. Cyrus was a smart man. He could surely figure something out. Maybe a little magic, maybe a little liquor (and here he told himself that he didn't drink!) and maybe a little bit of self indulgence, and he might be able to slake any such lust that came his was.
Oh he was so clever. He already had an idea formulating in his head. Such a clever man.
If only it would work.
