Appearance

Physical Description

Tall with a lanky, underfed build that’s somewhat camouflaged by his student robes.

Body Features

Disproportionately long-legged. Long, dexterous fingers. Mechanical right arm to the elbow.

Facial Features

Dark hair with messy bangs. Most would describe his neutral expression as "fox-faced."

Identifying Characteristics

A split tongue, a mechanical right arm, a very conspicuous stitched up gash across his throat.

Physical quirks

Back to always smiling. :)

Apparel & Accessories

His chunky array of belts and pouches have been replaced by streamlined, functional clothing, as his mechanical arm houses the majority of his tools and the cloud of nanite-esque constructs that swarms his person make up the rest.

Special abilities

Specializes in maths, metalwork, constructs, and modular spell matrices. Proficient in a frankly ridiculous number of toolkits, including tinker's tools, smith's tools, cartographer's tools, and glassblowing tools.

Mentality

Personal history

Born a nameless child among countless others within the Clockwork City of Difraxis, his early life is a half-recalled nightmare of fear and pain at the hands of the Designers — a rare survivor of one of many cruel experiments designed to integrate flesh and magic. He would eventually be rescued by a group of Duneriders following a bloody skirmish at the outskirts of machine territory. Near catatonic and unfit to travel with the Duneriders, they left him in the care of a Hillfolk clan, who gave him the name Cuan. Though he eventually recovered, Cuan was never fully accepted or trusted by his guardians, who feared the taint of the Machine Prince — a fear that was only aggravated by his emerging talent for tinkering and metalwork. When it eventually became clear that his talent was magical in nature, the clan elders saw fit to send word to the magi at Ioth Academy, as much for Cuan’s sake as their own protection.

Education

Accomplishments & Achievements

Failures & Embarrassments

Only personal ones.

Mental Trauma

Yeah.

person.sexuality

Bi with a healthy dose of misanthropy.

person.gender_identity

Cismale, but only insofar as he hasn't really given it any thought; otherwise profoundly detatched from gender.

Known Languages

Common, Infernal

Personality

Motivation

Believes the completion of the Eschaton Clock to be a mathematical inevitability, so he intends to eventually serve Anachronous and hopes to gain his recognition until the End Times (not that it's anyone's fucking business).

Savvies & Ineptitudes

✔️ Problem solving, design theory, anything related to numbers.
❌ Honest communication, having feelings besides resentment and loathing.

Likes & Dislikes

✔️ Soup, Hilde
❌ Other people, rice, other people who spill rice

Personality Quirks

Suffers from intense arithmomania (also not anyone's business).

Social

Birthplace

The Clockwork City of Difraxis

Current Residence

Ioth Academy (Tarselmoor Chapterhouse)

Contacts & Relations

Wealth & Financial state

No personal finances beyond what he's provided by the academy.

Family Ties

None that he knows of — as a child from the Clockwork City, he was taken from his biological parents as soon as he was born and raised in his designated group. He made no familiar connections with his Hillfolk guardians.

Social Aptitude

A loaner by design rather than circumstance, the type who knows a lot of people and whom a lot of people know, but isn’t really close with anyone save for a very select few individuals.

Mannerisms

Always seems a bit distracted, only ever half paying attention to the conversation at hand. Will do almost anything he's asked with little question or hesistation, even if he's privately disparaging the asker (which he probably is). Generally outwardly polite, if somewhat cagey.

Hobbies & Pets

Metallurgy, casting, machining, designing and building constructs and modular spell matrices, solving puzzles and complex math problems.

Speech

Speaks with the serene confidence of someone who knows something you don't.
