.: THE HERON :.

Lysander Amadeus Cyrus | Alexander Cunningham

.: THE BASICS :.

Title: "Sir" works.
Gender: Male.
Age: 37 years old.

Citadel-nationality: Owns both an Azurite and a Gilder ID, but is clearly Azurite of birth.
Profession: Chocolate connoisseur, bartender, barista, herbalist... ~~harlot, Bird, poisonmaster.~~

.: MAGIC PRACTICE :.

Let's just say he's skilled in certain areas, while in others he's a little... blind.

.: CONNECTION TO THE CITADEL :.

Rumour: A sometimes popular and sometimes rather disliked conversationalist expert of the Fuchsia Curtain, he apparently got into some trouble with Madame Hawk and was one of the reasons it went up into flames - again. Makes for a boring but adequate barista, that had a lot of swooning gilder teens write up poetry about the mysterious, quiet man behind the bar. Also married to that Valentine, or something.
Oh, and then there was that part where he murdered someone, and is wanted for manslaughter by the Inquisition.

Political Standpoint: Team Let's-Just-Survive-Please. If hard-pressed, he'd admit to being of Blue Suite allegiance. But then he's really hard-pressed.

Religious Standpoint: Habitual practicioner of the Aqualux religion, but ultimate - philosophically and intellectually - an atheist. His father did always tell him Spellblinds can't possibly know Magiae's light, because they can't feel it... so, yeah.

.: THE PEACOCK :.

Chez'ker'Arathez

.: THE BASICS :.

Title: Moon-and-Sand, Jinni, Madame of the Fuchsia, Lord Moonlight, Lady Celeste, Darlingheart, Chezzie!
Gender: All of them - which do you prefer?
Age: Older than this bootalicious bod might reveal~

Citadel-nationality: Vermillian... maybe? Kind of? Perhaps?
Profession: Gods don't work, honey. But Supreme Slut will suffice.

.: MAGIC PRACTICE :.

Magus: There has never been an account of the Peacock learning, as much as it has of the Peacock teaching.

Minor Arcanas: Minor Divine Tantric Pleasure Arcana, Minor Wish Arcana (Whatever that is?).

Anchoring: Chez is a great fan of some physical activity before performing magic. These include but are not limited to: yelling, throwing martinis and fucking something.

Casting: All manner of showbiz! Striptease, belly dance, facial paint, ointments... seems to have a taste for the dramatic, ey?

.: CONNECTION TO THE CITADEL :.

Rumour: The general populi either seem to consider the Peacock insane - as in not the cute kind of insane, but the kind that sets things on fire and walks away laughing manically - or insanely attractive.
If the title is something to be inherited, in the ways of Vermillians, or not is up for discussion; but the Peacock has been around for quite some time. The previous Rex Arché apparently kept Chez the same way the Phoenix Empress once did Crow, and the Fuchsia is known to harbour quite a lot of influental people; all of them intoxicated with the courtesan one way or another.
Recently, however, the Peacock appears a slave in its own nest? By a Hawk's talons, no less.

Political Standpoint: Ever heard of the mage who did all the hard work and never cut any corners? No, me neither.

Religious Standpoint: The stars used to be so beautiful.

.: THE PROPHET :.

Ophelia

.: THE BASICS :.

Title: Matron, the Prophet, Mama, Allmother, Lady Spellthief.
Gender: Woman.
Age: You don't ask a lady about her age.

Citadel-nationality: Ivoress, originally... Silverem, nowadays? Or is it Silveress?
Profession: Dollmaker & Doctor, two practices that go surprisingly well together!

.: MAGIC PRACTICE :.

Magus: Uma Kakaram was the one who taught her the finer arts of fleshcrafting, but it was inveitable that she'd move on to Jeanette Brighthart and her Anima construction, really - it takes a woman to know a woman's potential.

Minor Arcanas: Eri will be a good mod and fill this in eventually.

Anchoring: She keeps a rosary with Magiae's Eye on her for a reason, and if she finds herself in need of focus, prayer always helps.

Casting: What's wrong with some oldfashioned chalk? Kids these days.

.: CONNECTION TO THE CITADEL :.

Rumour: Once upon a time she was the ever so longed for Prophet who was able to cure the Tearing; now people are whispering about the woman found in a glass coffin amongst Broken Tower ruble, who rose and started seducing promising young men from their mothers.

Political Standpoint: It's all very adorable, but Ophelia is squarely in Team Penniver's corner. For now.

Religious Standpoint: Magiae's Light and Web is to be treated with the respect it deserves.

.: THE CROW :.

.: THE BASICS :.

Title: Rex Courtesan, Spymaster, Whisperer.
Gender: Male.
Age: Somewhere around 15-18 years old.

Citadel-nationality: Obsidian by birth, but Vermillian for all intents and purposes.
Profession: Used to work as the Rex Arché's right hand, but things are... different, now.

.: MAGIC PRACTICE :.

Magus: It's said that each master of the Whisperers passes on their secrets and knowledge to their successor, and the one to teach Crow was of course the esteemed Bluejay.

Minor Arcanas: Eri will be a good mod and fill this in eventually.

Anchoring: He has a lullaby of Obsidian origin that he humms to himself, be it just the first few notes if pressed for time. Sometimes, if silence is of the essence, he'll spell the notes out with his hand in sign-language instead.

Casting: Singing! Thrilling! Chirping! A true spellsinger.

.: CONNECTION TO THE CITADEL :.

Rumour: The Crow hears everything.

Political Standpoint: FOR THE PHOENIX EMPRESS!!

Religious Standpoint: He has a fleeting assocation with the occult of the Obsidian, but above all he's a believer of the Olarian Paradise and the riches it shall surely yield for his mistress.

.: SINDRIN THE ARCANE :.
Sindrin Aleanana | Azure Arché

.: THE BASICS :.

Title: Archmage. The only title that matters.
Gender: Male.
Age: 42 years old, although he doesn't wear his years well.

Citadel-nationality: Azurite.
Profession: Political leader of the Azure Tower as well as the front figure of the Blue Suite. ...Also? Head Librarian.

.: MAGIC PRACTICE :.

Magus: Saberis Aleanana, his father, as well as an assortment of others. In his youth he burned through teachers like others do candles, and none of them appeared to have liked the snotty arcane genius very much.

Minor Arcanas: Minor Storm Summon Arcana, and... many, many others. Possibly one of the most knowledgeable sorcerers in the Citadel.

Anchoring: Lowering his hands into a bowl or water, or otherwise soaking his fingertips and tracing waters across his brow. All very traditional Azurite.

Casting: Tracing different seals and runes, preferably with water although he can go at it au naturale as well~ He has a fondness for runes in general, and for more longlasting effects he's prone to etching them into the spelled material - preferably a conduit in the shape of a jewel.

.: CONNECTION TO THE CITADEL :.

Rumour: As the undisputed leader of his Tower and Suite, the rumours about him is as vivid and evershifting as they are... prone to mostly be enemy or his own propaganda. One day he's bedding the Phoenix Empress, the other he has taken her head, and the third he's actually her in disguise.
Politically, he's known for his radical views on the Rex Arché title, believing the idea of a monarchy to be obsolete and arguing vehmently for a republic to take its place.

Political Standpoint: I mean, he invented the political standpoint "Blue Suite". So.

Religious Standpoint: Although he'd never admit it, he has a rather religious reverence for Azyn and the Aqualux.

.: LUC :.

.: THE BASICS :.

Title: Big Bro, Lord of the Socks, Partydude Extraordinaire, Grandmaster, Daddy Longlegs, He Who Bringeth The Beat, Dom-Don, Lucifer, Lucas, Luke, Lu-lu.
Gender: Maaaayn.
Age: He looks to be around 20-30?

Citadel-nationality: Obsidon.
Profession: Kind of the Obsidian Arché. Sssh, it's a secret.

.: MAGIC PRACTICE :.

Magus: ???

Minor Arcanas: I mean he's an Obsidian. Glamour and illusion is kinda his bread and butter. ...right?

Anchoring: It has something to do with booze. This gotta be a fact.

Casting: ...partying? Orrrr?

.: CONNECTION TO THE CITADEL :.

Rumour: While previously in quite good, inofficial standing with the Black Tower - recently things have become... complicated. After he, without word of why or how, completely cut off the Obsidian Tower from the rest of the Citadel people are divided into two camps. Either, he's a dictator that's not listening to his bros (a so-called Bad Bro), or he's still the man you live and die for.
...And considering the recent civil unrest, quite literally so.
But one rumour prevails: Luc lies.

Political Standpoint: ...neutral? While he previous allied himself with the Red Suite, things seem to be tipping in no one's favor at the moment.

Religious Standpoint: As a member of the Disciples, he's a mysticist of the Seven Sorcerers.

Age: 20-sumthin'

Citadel-nationality: Brookie!
Profession: Cooks for Pink. Ex. pit-fighter. ...Uh, chemist?~

.: MAGIC PRACTICE :.

Magus: You learn or you die, 's the rule of the street. But sure, old Cranks was a great help.

Minor Arcanas: Minor Akarek Arcana.

Anchoring: Cracking her fingers or adjusting her rings.

Casting: Apply fist to face.

.: CONNECTION TO THE CITADEL :.

Rumour: Apparently she's been stabbed more times than anyone would care to count, and also threw the reputed criminal underlord Songbird over a fucking rail? Fiercely loyal to Pink during his absence, and has been breaking the noses of everyone who speaks ill of him.
...Aaaaand she's fucking the Empress. Literally.

Political Standpoint: Red Suite. Since. Empress.

Religious Standpoint: She belives in the strength of her knuckles? Nah, she's seen too much shit to buy all that Magiae-crap.
