Name: Cylo
Age: 18
Race: Demon
Profession: TI Council Member, Freelance Adventurer
History: The oldest living demon in current day, Cylo has seen and done more in his short life than many of the races with far higher longevity. He was originally brought to this plane by the Aretas Immortalis Cult in an experiment as most demons are, but he came into this plane in America, far from his expected location, and the AIC never found him.
He was cared for in his fragile first year by a large family headed by a Lycan father and a Pixie mother. They taught him as much as they could in his year there, but he moved on quickly, as demons do. He found a small community of demons living in New York City and stayed with them for a few years, leaving often to explore and further his skills in unarmed combat. The other demons quickly recognized his talent and he earned the nickname "Aretas' Disciple", a name which only other demons use due to the negative connotations of the name by the fault of AIC.
At the age of five he left for Raewyn Island to join the AofT, but there was little they could teach him by this point. He completed the curriculum 'just for fun' and was immediately given a position as a Hero, where he excelled at solving cases without violence when possible and with deadly precision when necessary. It was around this time that he received his first Magi-Tech pistol, which was, in the time before Nicholas J. Traptory made Magi-Tech so much more effective and widespread, nearly one-of-a-kind.
When the demon TI Council Member of the time died at the ripe old age of 17, Cylo, then 12, was given the position by unanimous decision. He has held the position for many years now, and has greatly helped with TI's relations with and knowledge of demons. He remains one of the world's most deadly fighters, both unarmed and with the pistol he received years ago, which he constantly upgrades and considers his closest friend.
Personality: Cylo is, expectedly, a hot-head, but he controls his temper much better than the average demon. Some consider him to be a berserker when he actually does get mad, but he retains a calculating mind that no berserker could match when fighting. In fact, he maintains that he thinks much more clearly when angry than at normal times.
Anger aside, Cylo is actually a pretty nice guy. He is compassionate toward the troubles of others and always willing to help out, even moreso if there is something in it for him. He is also an incorrigible flirt, though he is usually sincere in his musings. He is very intelligent and at times even manipulative, though usually only in fun, and when need be, he can lie like no other. He also quite enjoys pranks, something he had a great deal of experience with being raised in a family with Pixies. Beware of pranking him though; he will not get angry, but he will be sure to get you back, and usually twice as badly! He and Torin DeInnes are known for their prank-war that has lasted since Cylo torched Torin's car in his first year at AofT.
