== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Sétanta MacTyre was born in Dundalk, Leinster in the Kingdom of Ireland. Sétanta was the son of Colm and Diane MacTyre, both of whom were regular people, though they were also Beast-kin. It was apparent from a young age that Sétanta was a special child.
Sétanta lived an ordinary life in Dundalk for much of his youth, though he was abnormally good at most things and developed extremely quickly. Despite this, Sétanta faced some discrimination thanks to his nature as a Beast-kin, though he often fought back against bullies and those who insulted his heritage.
=== Destruction of Dundalk ===
When Sétanta was six years old, Dundalk was attacked by the Fomorians. The Fomorians razed the city to the ground and Sétanta's parents were killed in the conflict. Despite his extremely young age, Sétanta attempted to fight back against the monstrous attackers. Sétanta's supernatural skill allowed him to slay many Fomorians and it became clear to that he had divine power.
Although he tried his best, Sétanta's youth meant he was eventually overpowered. As Sétanta was stabbed and left to die, the leader of the Fomorians appeared before him. The giant, demonic creature realized that Sétanta was the reincarnation of Cú Chulainn and became very amused by what happened. The leader told his name to Sétanta, revealing himself to be the ancient Irish deity Crom Cruach. Crom Cruach told Sétanta that he destroyed his town and killed everyone he knew simply because he could and for the blood that would result. Sétanta swore vengeance on Crom Cruach which the demonic deity accepted wholesale, telling Sétanta to become strong enough to face him proper battle. The Fomorians left Sétanta to bleed out with Sétanta repeatedly cursing the attackers, reaffirming his vengeance until he passed out from blood loss, the last thing he could hear being the cawing of three crows. 
=== Life with the Fae and the Island of Skye ===
Sétanta would awake in the middle of a forest surrounded by the Fae and three crows overlooking him. The fae explained that they were aware that he was the reincarnation of Cú Chulainn and so the Gods decided to save him in because of it. Despite his fear of the Fae, Sétanta was more concerned with getting his vengeance. The fae advised him that he was yet too weak and that he needed more time to mature as a warrior. Sétanta refused this and attempted to leave to hunt down the Fomorians, however, he was unable to escape the woods. Sétanta spent days attempting to leave, but eventually tired himself out too much to leave and he passed out.
Sétanta eventually relented to the Fae's advice and lived with them for several years, learning how to survive in the wilderness and basic education.
When Sétanta was nine, the Fae had him sent to the Island of Skye in Scotland to learn under Scáthach.
=== Armagh ===
After leaving his time with the Fae and Scáthach, Sétanta would return to Ireland and took up residence in Armagh. 
=== Bastion ===
When Sétanta turned 18, he applied to Bastion Academy and was admitted.
== Personality ==
== Appearance ==
=== General Appearance ===
Sétanta was an Irish male with black, blond, and red hair, slate gray eyes, and pale skin. Sétanta was a very short and lean man, standing at only 5'4" at his tallest and weighing 164 lbs. Despite his small stature and almost scrawny appearance, Sétanta was incredibly muscular and much stronger than he looked. Sétanta's semi-divine soul affected his aging, causing him to age much slower than he normally should. As a Dog Beast-kin, Sétanta had a number of animal features, though his features were more like those of a wolf than those of a dog's. Sétanta looked extremely similar to his original incarnation. 
Sétanta had wavy, thick, soft, and somewhat spiky hair that was primarily raven black in color, though it faded to crimson red at the ends and he had many strands of golden blond hair. Sétanta's hair was incredibly wild and messy, though he did take care of it and it was both vivid and lustrous. Sétanta's hair was quite long and reached the floor, though though he most often tied it into three loose, low ponytails that ended at his middle back. Sétanta parted his hair on the right and swept his messy and spiky bangs to the left and they almost completely covered his forehead, with two sidelocks that ended at his chest framing his face. 
Sétanta had large and upturned, almond shaped eyes that were rather sharp and wolf-like. Sétanta's eyes were a striking slate gray in color and were thought of as incredibly beautiful. Sétanta's eyes are described as like those of a predator that sees everything and is ready to pounce on it's prey. Even when Sétanta was joking and having fun, people described his eyes of being beastial in nature. Despite this nature, Sétanta's eyes almost always seemed to have some sort of mirth as though he knew something others didn't and he found it absolutely hilarious. Sétanta's eyes were similar to those of a dog's in structure as a result of his origin as a Beast-kin. Uniquely, Sétanta had seven pupils in each eye. Sétanta had large main pupils, and six smaller pupils that formed a ring around the main ones. Sétanta had long and thick black eyelashes and his black eyebrows were rather large and thick. 
Sétanta had an oval shaped face that was perfectly symmetrical and somewhat androgynous in appearance. Sétanta had a mildly wide forehead, high cheekbones, dimples on his cheeks, average sized ears that were slightly pointed like an elf's ears, with pierced lobes for his earrings, a small, straight, and sharp nose with small nostrils, soft lips that were slightly plump and were a light pink in color, sharp white teeth with enlarged canines, a strong and sharp jawline, and a strong chin that was somewhat round. Sétanta was unable to grow facial hair and thus was completely clean shaven. Sétanta had very sharp and attractive face to the point that he was considered an incredibly beautiful man. Sétanta's skin was rather soft and pale, and he had a number of freckles that dusted his face. Despite his porcelain skin, Sétanta never tanned or sunburned. One of Sétanta's most visible features were the two dog ears atop his head, though they were closer to wolf ears than dog ones. Sétanta's ears were covered in black fur that faded to red at the tips, matching the color of his hair. 
Sétanta was a rather short and slim man, though he was still incredibly fit and muscular. Thanks to his semi-divine soul, Sétanta was perfectly proportioned and his body was something that most people could never hope to achieve. Sétanta had a long and somewhat slender neck, mildly broad shoulders, a muscular back, long arms that were muscular and toned, average size hands with long and dexterous fingers, a toned chest with small, light pink nipples, a flat abdomen with eight-pack abdominal muscles, sculpted obliques, a very narrow and slim waist, a dog tail with black fur that turned to red at the tip, sculpted buttocks, and long and toned legs with strong calves. Sétanta did not have much body fat, only having what was required for his body. Sétanta was naturally hairless aside from his scalp, eyebrows, and eyelashes. While his muscles were very hard and firm, Sétanta's skin was noted to be smooth and soft and he didn't have any calluses despite his occupation. Sétanta had several light blue runic tattoos on his torso and left arm. Sétanta was also apparently extremely well-endowed. 
Sétanta had a rather captivating voice with a strong Northern Irish accent. Although not especially deep, Sétanta's voice was still rather smooth. Sétanta was rather boisterous and loudmouthed, as well prone to speaking very fast. 
Sétanta was considered extremely handsome by many, to the point of being considered a "pretty boy" or even beautiful. Even as a child it was joked that Sétanta was probably the prettiest person in Ireland. All in all, Sétanta gave off the feeling of a “bad boy” or the cool-guy type when in normal situations, or that of a hellhound when in battle.
==== Riastrad ====
When Sétanta uses his Riastrad, his body transforms. Sétanta grew in height to 10'5" and his body became extremely muscular and veiny to an unpleasant degree, and his skin seemed to turn red from the heat and rushing blood, with many glowing runic symbols appearing on his body. Sétanta's hair became unbound and spiked up considerably, almost functioning like a porcupine's quills. Sétanta's hands and feet grew razor sharp claws and his teeth all became sharp fangs, his jaw seemed to dislocate to become an almost gaping maw, and his tongue became incredibly long. Sétanta's right eye shrunk considerably, whilst his left bulged out and turned glowing red with visible veins. Sétanta's body released an immense about of body heat, resulting in him releasing a great amount of steam from his body. All-in-all, Sétanta looked like a demonic creature of almost indescribably horror rather than the handsome warrior he was out of the form. 
Sétanta usually burst out of his clothes while in this form, causing him to appear nearly naked aside from parts of his pants remaining to cover his modesty.
===== Controlled Riastrad =====
Sétanta later learned to control his warp spasm. getting all the power while retaining his rationality. In this form, Sétanta grew in height to 6'8" and became more muscular, but not as monstrous looking or as veiny as his normal Riastrad. Sétanta's skin became slightly more red, he had his glowing runes, his hair became more wild and spiky, and he released great amounts of steam from, though his face remained normal and he still looked extremely handsome. Sétanta still burst out of his clothes, though had more covering him thanks to him not being nearly as large.
==== Child of Light ====
In his Child of Light form, Sétanta glows a golden-white light, his eyes change color to glowing golden, and his hair changed to primarily white with gold and red highlights.

=== Friends ===
==== Aurelius Lyons ====
Sétanta and Aurelius are close friends and rivals, though they are always bickering and constantly express contempt toward one another. Despite how much they claim to hate each other, they are close friends and would do anything for the other even as they push each other's buttons.
Part of the reason that Sétanta acts so antagonistically toward Aurelius is that he reminds Sétanta of Ferdiad. While initially his attitude was because Aurelius was a prince and he thought it would be fun to mess with him, Sétanta gradually found himself enjoying Aurelius' company more and more with Aurelius feeling the same. Sétanta does not want a repeat of him slaying his closest friend and so continues to act like an asshole to Aurelius in hopes of not getting too attached. Despite his best efforts, Sétanta does genuinely like Aurelius and they are some of the closest friends in the group. While they still bicker constantly, they are much closer and there is no real heat to their arguments. Both of them secretly love their verbal sparring, though neither will admit it.
While Aurelius has expressed some mild attraction to Sétanta, his personality was a complete turn off and Aurelius no longer feels that way. Sétanta was completely straight and never felt any attraction to Aurelius. When Aurelius initially used magic to take on a female form, Sétanta was very attracted to Aurelius and was prepared to start hitting on him/her. Once Sétanta learned that it was actually Aurelius, he lost all interest and was even mildly disgusted. Sétanta explained it wasn't something like transphobia that caused his disgust (he had no issues with dating transwomen), it was simply that he was disgusted that he was attracted to Aurelius (something that pissed Aurelius off).
