First Name: Cocydius
Last Name: Calwamir
Nickname(s): Cyd
Race: High Elf
Sex/Gender: Male
Age: 18
Class: Archer
Appearance:
Cocydius is a particularly youthful, feminine-looking High Elf with kind eyes and blackish-purple hair. He is almost always seen wearing some sort of blue or purple outfit (his favorite colors), and never goes anywhere without his trusty bow. While his attire comes across as high-class, he is not afraid to get his hands (and the rest of himself) dirty while conducting research out in the field.
Personality:
Cocydius is a generally quiet, kind, friendly person. He may not be the type to strike up a conversation with a stranger on his own, but should he be approached, he is likely to open up, make jokes, and share things about himself and his interests. While not the most skilled fighter, he is very protective of others and the environment, especially animals.
Backstory:
Coming from parents who had careers in the sciences, Cocydius has been interested in knowledge and learning from a very young age. Before he was a year old, his parents had gotten him a kitten. Immediately, he not only realized it was physically quite different from himself, but desperately wanted to know the reasons for those differences, and to learn as much about the animal as he could by studying its diet, the things it enjoyed playing with, etc. This early lesson in animal biology provided an excellent start to his studies. Between this, and his parents being scientists themselves, he was invited to work in the
After the discovery of northern Arun, Cocydius was invited to be part of a research expidition to Spring Valley to discover how the creatures and ecosystem thrived without exposure to the rest of the world, in hopes of using the knowledge they gathered to better their own existence.
Soon after setting up camp there with the rest of his team, Cocydius realized that it wasn't mere studying that they planned to do on the land and its inhabitants, it consisted of horrible and cruel experiments, including exposing the native plants and animals to noctenium to see what changes may happen.
Cocydius absolutely loved research, especially if it could lead to a better standard of living for himself and others, but not like this. He refused to be a part of it, to the point where he refused any further contact or association with the group he was working for, and made his way back to Allemanthia on his own. There, he spent much time in the libraries in search of better, kinder means of scientific advancement, things that didn't cause pain and suffering in any forms of life.
Area(s) of Research:
Since being around his family cat from a very young age, he is fond of animals and their biology. After having taken up work in the lab his parents introduced him to, he became interested in ecology and archaeology as well, and was always happy to go out and do field work because of that. Upon seeing the beauty of the newly discovered northern region of Arun and the life contained within, he decided he wanted to not only learn about such things, but to protect them as well.
Other Skills:
Due to how often he performs research in the field, Cocydius decided to take up archery as a form of self-defense from the more aggressive creatures out there.
