Height: 5'7"
Weight: 147 lbs.
Distinguishing Markings(Tattoos, Piercings, etc):
3 ear piercings in both ears, noticeable limp with his left leg, always
wearing a thick choker like band around his neck in order to hide the
scars caused by a time in his life as a slave. His eyes always appear to
be shadowed, although not physical, just seems to be an impression
always there even when his bangs aren't shadowing them.
Morality: Chaotic Good- A good
hearted guy he doesn't like to see others suffering and will do what he
can to help them, however, after everything he's gone through he's not
one to trust easily. And although he has a generally friendly
personality, he can also be a bit on the gruff side. Especially if he
thinks that someone is lying to him or trying to mess around with him.
Doesn't tolerate nonsense, or uneccessary special treatment just because
of his disability.
Disability: His left leg, the
muscles were hobbled permanently giving him a limp. Due to this he can
barely run, and too much walking tires him out easily.
Also, purposely using his seer abilities too much can tire him out. With
too little rest, food and too much stress there's a chance to cause an
aneurism as there is with all of his kind. For Daryus, this is much
harder to cause due to his abnormal amount of energy, but still possible
if he pushes himself.
Allergies: Glurps- a type of
fruit from his home realm, closest to an apple. Although he's not
actually allergic to apples, they remind him too much of glurps so he
won't eat those either.
Blood Type: O+
Sexuality: Straight
Love Interest: None yet
Family: Unknown
Class(es)/Occupation(s): Dream Seer, Teacher of Clairvoyance 101 at ISK, Student
Abilities: As a Dream Seer he has
visions in his dreams that tell the future, however due to his abnormal
amount of energy it used to seep over into his waking hours, causing a
form of narcolepsy. Has learned to control this much better through his
time at ISK.
Minor psychic abilities- able to read surface thoughts, the louder the
clearer they are to him combined with distance, the closer the clearer.
Medium- Able to see and hear spirits that are normally obscured, and can read people's moods through their auras.
Minor Telekinesis- able to move objects with strong effort.
Psychometry- able to gain information through physical touch; works on a sporadic basis
Weapons: Carries a small
switchblade on him outside of ISK, because he's had no training with any
sort of weapon. Only uses it as defense if he feels that he's
threatened.
Other Important Items/Equipment:
Cane with crystalline black orb at it's top, that he often leaves in his
room, but can sometimes be seen with him on days his leg is bothering
him more.
Biography:
Daryus was born in the large city of Clasedre, not an uncommon place for
those of his race to live, Dream Seers. A race of psychic types who
for the most part will have strong visions through their dreams with
other minor abilities dependent on their natural energy reserves. Of
course both of his parents were Dream Seers, which again was not
uncommon for their race, for while they can and do intermingle with
other race most tend towards their own race due to the better level of
understanding regarding their abilities and the like.
While normally one would think it very difficult to surprise Dream
Seers, Daryus's parents would definitely be so when the boy was born and
it was found that his abilities were stronger then typical for one of
his age and his energy ran much deeper. No one could explain the
phenomenon of this happening, nor why they had not foreseen their child
possessing such power. However what they did know was that it was
something they would have to try to keep quiet.
Daryus's realm is one of modernization and advancement, but somehow the
notions of slavery and forced captivity by the powerful have survived to
his day and age. And it was a well known fact that those high up in
power would take Seers with particularly strong abilities for their own.
Partly for having a powerful Seer was a status symbol since it most
often meant finding a way to surprise one, and partly because their
visions and other abilities were greatly helpful in maintaining and
gaining wealth.
At the age of 10 Daryus's parents would disappear, nothing dramatic,
nothing seemingly bloody or anything of the like. However, the most
surprising part was again, there had been nothing foreseen about the
event. Although his parents were average in their talents, they should
have seen it coming. But for whatever reason, it never would be seen.
This left a 10 year old boy with the task of trying to maintain a home
and financial responsibilities.
And just as one would think, he would fare very well, quickly running
behind on bills before completely losing the house and most of his
belongings. The worst part of it though for him would be that he had
lost the house that he had hoped for his parents to return to even
though they never had of course by then.
For the next couple of years, Daryu wandered the streets as the
homeless, using his abilities to make a little money here and there,
just enough to survive since he was already displaying problems with his
strong abilities and narcoleptic tendencies.
It would be during one of the narcoleptic episodes that he would be
found and taken to one of the most powerful women of the city. She had
heard of his abilities through her networks and wanted him to be at her
side. 14 by this time, he still did not want anything to do with her,
knowing about her kind from living on the streets and knowing to avoid
them. Trying to take off at the first chance he had. Although that
would turn out poorly for him, as he'd upset her and she'd of course
give him no choice. It was either cooperate or die, and he wasn't ready
to die.
The next 5 years of his life would be utterly terrible, tortured at the
hands of the woman whenever she wished, and used for whatever she wanted
once he turned 17, he had no hope. As soon as she took him into her
custody he gained the typical collar used on Dream Seers that dampened
their psychic abilities unless their 'owner' wanted. Because of it
having to direct brain activity so directly, the collars are designed
cruelly with spines that are inserted into the neck to jolt electricity
in the right spots. He almost died many times when he would anger his
'owner'. And on top of that, she would use another method on him that
while still existed and was not illegal was often not practiced anymore
for the sheer cruelty of it. She would have him hobbled, a surgery
messing around with the muscles in one leg, such as his left was, making
it so that even if he was willing to put up with the pain, he would not
be able to run very much. Literally making it physically impossible
for him to run. Of course the surgery would be repeated over the years
as he grew to make sure that new, healthy muscles were stunted before
giving him any chance. The things that she made him do, and even the
things that she made him concentrate his visions on the like were beyond
things he would ever hope to have seen. Truly traumatizing events that
he knew he played a big part in even if it was against his will.
As he was getting older, his high energy levels were getting him into
trouble because they were making him drop out at random intervals of the
day.And this was not going well with his mistress because she didn't
want to have him passing out in food or anything of the sort and
embarrassing her.
When he was 18 Daryus however would recieve a letter, he didn't know how
anyone even knew he was there, or how it would get past his mistress's
security. But he would read it, incredibly surprised at the offer of
becoming a student for free. However of course that meant he was unlikely
to ever get there because of getting away from his mistress was nigh
impossible. He'd become determined though and after a few minor failed
attempts, he would manage to escape, only daring to since he had noted
that it specified he would need the letter to get through. And he
doubted that she would have been invited.
So he would go off to ISK, a place that would allow him the chance to
start healing and while he is now a fairly nice guy, he still has dark
issues that he doesn't often share with anyone. Lotus Jannat, the
principal of the academy helped him a lot and has earned his loyalty and
trust, a hard feat to honestly accomplish.
Over the time he spent there, Daryus eventually learned great control of
his abilities and exceeded all expectations on his control for the most
part. And when the last teacher of Clairvoyance decided to head home
he was immediately offered the option to stay on as just a student, or
that he could do both. Snapping up the chance to help others who had to
suffer through a similar sensation, he has now been a teacher for only a
year, while he has been a student as well, learning all that he can of
the different reals and places.
Perhaps he is delaying the inevitable by doing so, knowing that he
couldn't forever stay at ISK, But Daryus knew what awaited him in his
home and had decided he would try another place to explore and perhaps
settle in.
But for now he just enjoys his time as a student and teacher, doing what
he can to help out those with the similar issue to his own. To this
day however he won't talk much about his limp and unless he trusts you,
he will clam right up if anyone so much as mentions the scars under his
necklace.
