Description: Cirius is a slender, dark-haired man with almond eyes who has a knack of fading into the foreground when he doesn't wish to intrude. His age is almost indefinable: he could be an old-seeming twenty or a young forty. His clothes are of the finest cut and tailoring, and he keeps them immaculately clean whenever possible: few suspect that he conceals both a fine collection of knives and a tight leather carapace-armor beneath.

Character Tags: Unflappable servant, Covert assassin

Personality: Cirius was trained from birth in the arts of both servitude and murder. He strives at all times to be courteous, helpful, discrete, and to never, ever give any hint as to his true thoughts or feelings. Because he spent so long serving the Lady Vries, he still possesses a streak of gallantry and deference towards women.

Bio: Formerly the companion and factotum of the High Lady Vries, much of Cirius's time was spent entertaining the lady and her guests in all manner of diverting ways, managing her extensive household, and... disposing of certain problems the lady occasionally encountered. One of these problems, a rather bothersome nephew with designs on the widow's inheritance, proved to be Cirius's undoing when he was discovered in the act of disposing of the body. Like any good servant, he immediately assumed full responsibility, despite knowing that it would be the end of his career, and probably his life.
