## Character

### **Personality**

Cyrus Menoetius would be one of the most annoying and lazy heroes you would ever meet. Unlike his best friend Adrian he has come to the acceptance that he would end up without a happily ever after. From a young age, Cyrus understood that he was going to live a short life so he adapted to living it to the fullest… in his standard. He didn’t give much attention to his studies nor to anything else extracurricular until…becoming immortal. After becoming immortal alongside Adrian, Cyrus saw a chance to escape his destiny and become whatever he wanted to be. Cyrus is regarded to be loyal to the end and forgiving, always having somewhere in his heart to give people second chances. Cyrus usually cares a lot about the people he is loyal to, always feeling responsible of taking care of them (like his mother or any of the nymphs). Through years of being trained for his destiny, Cyrus has grown to be slightly bitter towards some people, developing a habit of sarcasm and sass. Cyrus somehow possesses a brooding and rebellious look in his eyes that complements his sarcastic attitude. Cyrus does have a particular fondness of animals as he does spend much of his time in the Enchanted Forest. Cyrus also has an ability to talk to animals which does prove useful whenever he needs help whenever he attends quests and other adventures. Cyrus happens to be a great tracker, always being able to sense where a certain animal is and finding them right away.

Cyrus proves to be an excellent dancer in both ballet and modern street dance as his mother took it upon herself to enroll him to dance class. Cyrus does find solace in dancing ballet and does enjoy helping a few girls if they need a dance partner, and no, he isn’t embarrassed to dance ballet in front of his friends since there would be no shame in it. Cyrus also occasionally likes working as a stage manager for dance concerts because he likes the power of the communications headset. Cyrus is a hard nut to crack. He's mostly seen as sarcastic and very withdrawn, not willing to be as open as society says you have to be. He has a habit of being brutally honest, saying what he thinks, and sometimes saying the first thing in his mind. Something that gets him into a few too many altercations. On his better side, Cyrus is a care-free person, preferring to keep to himself, rather than seek trouble; although trouble tends to find him (mainly because of his friends). He prefers to have his mind set on the "here and now", rather than think about the future or the past. It takes a while to get him to open up, only doing so to those he truly trusts. Despite having a soft side, he has adopted a snarky, sarcastic attitude to keep people from getting too close to him (but they eventually do). He is also quite ambitious and headstrong, stubborn even; if Cyrus has set his mind on achieving something, whatever that may be, there is nothing people can do to stop him. Despite being mostly introverted, his greatest fear is silence, which is why he prefers to sit in a room full of people if he needs to think, or work, and listens to music to fall asleep.

### **Appearance**

Cyrus seems to have inherited his mother’s divine beauty along with his father’s looks. Cyrus has messy brown hair, he has his father’s gray eyes, and light skin. While he lived with his mother, he wore traditional Ancient Greek clothing, but now at camp he wears a green shirt with flowers on it, jeans, and black sneakers.
