highstorm male twenty-one hryst miner heterosexual | a p p e a r a n c e _______________________________ Sylas is tall and slender standing at five foot ten inches. He has a modest build, being mostly toned and not having much muscle mass save his broad, sturdy shoulders he got from mining. His skin is mostly pale and clear of blemishes. he has deep obsidian locks that hang around carelessly over his face and over his ears. his eyes match, being an onyx/slate grey color. his normal expression is indifferent, and he watches everything around him with deep analytic eyes. on most days he can be seen in his most distinguished article of clothing, an ankle-length, solid black trench coat with white lining and a raised collar. he wears it open, and underneath a long sleeve, black v-neck shirt and solid charcoal pants. Dark, heavy combat boots adorn his feet. when working in the mines however he is seen in the miner's garbs, a baggy ash colored v neck shirt and baggy pants made out of material no better than rags. he normally has all types of dust all over him, making those black pants look almost grey. when walking the streets, he sports a polished one-handed longsword in a black scabbard proudl on his back. this blade belonged to his father when he held the title as knight and it is the only thing he inherited after the man's death. the blade is about 33 inches long with a nine inch handle. the sword is straight and polished to a dull lust. it weighs about 5 pounds. p e r s o n a l i t y _______________________________ at first glance, one can clearly see that sylas is very collected and has everything in the right place. he's descrived as a bit mysterious, and normally keeps to himself. he's not one to talk about his feelings as he thinks if he can't figure it out himself, then no one can figure it out for him. this lax trait normally keeps people away from him, and he normally doesn't get bothered by others. this also explains his lack of close friends. this however, does not mean he is socially inept. on the contrary he is very easy-going if one would get to know him. he has a very smooth way with words and is very articulate, which helps him gain the favor of the ladies. he pretty much tries to charm every attractive lady he meets with his lax attitude and mysteriousness. and nine times out of ten it works wonders. delving deeper into his mind however, sylas is an ambitious soul. underneath his normal cool and calm demeanor he has a lust for power. he doesn't wish to obtain power for control, just for self satisfaction. all his life he has been called weak and useless by his father who pushed him to extremes to mold sylas into a 'man'. he seeks the power to satisfy himself, to prove that he isn't weak at all. this means sylas is also very proud, and possesses undying will-power. even in the bleakest of moments he will push forward, through the fire and the flames. he is not one to give up, and won't give up until his "body lies cold", as he often says. This extends to others as well, since the young man has a powerful sense of justice. he will not stand there and watch someone be treated like less than what they are, and he will not stand idly by while someone is subject to something unjustly. being in a country where recent gang violence has made its way through the city, the trait has caused him many issues with the thugs as he always steps in to help someone in need. he has a very short fuse, and won't tolerate disrespect in any form. he's quick to draw the blade, which normally spells problems for him, and also aids the mysteriousness in keeping people away. triggering that short fuse is a mistake one does not want to make. sylas is a walking vessel of pent up emotions, restricted from showing unmanly emotions such as sorrow or grief. this means that when worked up he is a force to be reckoned with. as stated earlier he is quick to draw the blade and quick to strike forward. he is not a man of shit talking, but one of action. he avoids all things that may anger him however, because that emotion is tied with his unstable abilities, making him incredibly dangerous.

a b i l i t i e s /s k i l l s _______________________________ Longsword mastery- The sword sylas wears isn't there for appearance. he knows how to use it, and use it well. his father was a knight of high rank. this meant that sylas and his brother were in constant training to follow in his footsteps. among other weapons, sylas excelled in the usage of the longsword and used it whenever he could.one could even say he mastered the weapon and went so far as to wield it with one hand, using what he learned about being one with the blade and letting it flow to compensate for the added weight. though obviously slower than a short sword, the one handed technique he uses means he has faster movements than strengths:
