Cynis Vyre

Cynis Vyre
"The Houses are corrupt, the Dynasts are corrupt. I will never turn a blind eye."



Alias: Vyre of the Eye
Age:43
Alliances: The All-Seeing Eye
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual

Hair: White
Eyes: Brown
Build: A slender 110 lbs, well toned and standing 5'10" tall
Clothing types: Professionally-cut, well-made robes, devoid of insignia
General Appearance:
    Cynis Vyre is subtly attractive, a trait garnered more from care and effort rather than an innate beauty. While her features do not inspire poems, she is immaculately groomed at all times, her pure-white hair falling around her face with silken beauty. Her eyes are dark, accentuated with makeup, while her full lips almost never smile. Her body, toned from martial practice every morning, is slender rather than curved, but she still holds to the Cynis line's standard of beauty, even though she is far from the most gorgeous of their progeny.


Distinguishing Features:
    Vyre's only mark of her Breeding is her pure-white hair, which sometimes moves as though an unseen breeze stirred it, but her blood is too thin for more dramatic displays of Breeding. She is mostly recognized by her cold stare, never offering more than the faintest of smiles to those she speaks with.


Habits & Quirks: Vyre will always cut herself off when talking about her family, replacing familiar terms such as 'sister,' 'brother,' or 'mother,' with their proper names. She also almost never blinks when speaking with people, a habit that many find unsettling.
Hobbies: Learning new languages, reading books, and watching people around her.
Traits/Abilities
Vyre is a talented investigator with an unbreakable will. She has an undeniable knack for uncovering secrets and crimes, a fact which makes many Dynasts nervous around her.

Complete Personality Exploration
    Vyre is unforgiving and critical to the extreme, her own family's tendency to criticize her for even the smallest failings reflected back upon them. Her unfailing loyalty to the Empress and the Realm is so extreme as to almost be a fault, she will never hear a criticism of the Realm at large without objecting, although she freely admits to the corruption of the Dynast Houses.
    She has few friends thanks to her attitude, but those who survive her harsh judgement are her friends for life, she will fiercely protect them at any cost, provided they don't betray her, either.


Connections of Importance: Allied with the All-Seeing Eye, opposed to House Cynis, especially Cynis Belar
Occupation: Formal Investigator for the All-Seeing Eye
Fighting Style/Weapon(s) of Choice:
    Infinite Jade Chakrams


History
    Vyre was struck ill at a very young age, the disease ravaging her body, turning her hair white prematurely, and forever cursing her to sterility, the disease taking a brutal toll on the young Dynast. Immediately dismissed as a viable heir or marriageable asset by her family, she was mostly left to her own devices as a youth, even her Exaltation eliciting nothing more than a small moment of congratulation from her mother.

    Socially outcast by her family, Vyre turned to the art of listening, eavesdropping where she could, finding the secrets of her family members and using them to gain leverage and attention where she could. Unable to deny her talent and knack for details and minutiae, House Cynis sent her to the Spiral Academy, hoping to gain a spymaster, or at worst an accountant.

    It was at the academy that Vyre found her true calling, being approached in her fifth year by a member of the All-Seeing Eye. She was a perfect tool for the Eye, disconnected from her family, yet knowing so much about their habits and foibles. So it was that she gained her first assignment: To find Cynis Belar's stockpile of first-age weaponry, that by all rights belonged to the empress.

    When she uncovered it, and submitted her report to the All-Seeing Eye, the Imperial Bureaucracy moved quickly. Belar's protests were futile, and a mass of powerful weapons, including a pair of Soulbreaker Orbs, were claimed by the Empress. While Vyre was protected by her sudden fame(or perhaps infamy,) her mother was nonetheless an enemy for life, constantly working to block Vyre's influence or investigations.

    Since then, Vyre has worked with the Eye to unveil the corruption hidden by the veneer of civility that all the Houses hide, serving the Realm and the Empress with utter devotion, although she saves her greatest efforts for shaming her former family.
