IZEN CYRILSON
GENERAL
Name: Izen Cyrilson of Bantu Siri
Age: Twenty-Four
Birth Season: Summer
Occupation: Warrior
Citizen Status: Warrior
PHYSICAL
Height: 6'4
Weight: 200lbs
Body Description: Izen is a tall, muscular warrior who eats and trains to keep his physique in exact form. He wears as little clothes as possible, preferring loincloths and sandals over pants and boots any day. In the winter he throws cloaks made of furs over his body, but still wears as little as possible. Only in battle does he suit up, his armor of choice being a clever combination of leather, fur, metal, and bones.
PERSONAL
Alignment: Neutral Good
Reputation: Izen is an aggressive, honor-bound Coheedsman who isn't afraid to do what has to be done. He is an altruistic individual, looking to the needs of those around him, even his wife and children, before his own. He is bold enough to speak his mind, and has all the traits of a leader, but he well knows how to fall in line. Izen is a reliable brother, the one his brothers usually want on their side. While he's usually the brother to break up a fight, if the cause is worthy then he'll be right there throwing fists too. He knows how to banter with the best of them, and appreciates the religion of the witch doctor. He is man enough to have emotions and sometimes show them, but well-tempered enough to not be ruled by them.
Combat Experience: Raised a warrior of Coheed, Izen trained at the hands of his brothers as a babe and at the end of his father's weapon as a boy. As one of the oldest sons, Cyril poured his days into Izen's combative development. Rocks and nails were his foundation, and he became as tough as them. He trains daily, and uses a shield and shortsword combination in battle, though he prefers his own two fists over weapons any day.
MAGIC
Enhanced speed and smell.
STORY UPDATE: Cyril Jaggason managed to take the strength talisman from Cambria and returned home to Bantu Siri where he tattooed one wrist of each of his sons. For this reason, Izen has the strength of 20 strong men in his left hand/arm.
HISTORY
Family: @cyril (Father) | Shayetta (Mother) | Kaalim Cyrilson (Eldest Brother) | @rian (Brother)
Tale:
Izen is the fourth son of Cyril, though he should have been the second. Were it not for the sons given to Cyril by Cambrian women--and even then Rian is arguable, though none dare argue in front of him or Cyril--Izen could look to a legacy of being second of the tribe one day. As it is, the fourth brother, neck and neck with Xyentra's eldestborn, Izen has learned to set his eyes on a more practical objective: the support of his brothers, the rise of Coheed, and the destruction of Lorendale.
Izen participated in First Blood at 15, like his father, and won. He took his first and only wife, Dara, at 17 when she was 14. He worked hard to afford his second wife, which he finally could by twenty-one, but he tends to be particular and the ones he wanted were consistently snatched away from him, as if someone was playing a very rude joke. Izen currently has four children: three sons (6, 5, 3) and one daughter (1).
Izen was present at the battle in the north when the gifted made a wall of ice and the blizzard sent his people home. He was also there when Bantu Siri marched on Cambria, striking the betraying kingdom where it hurt. In fact, he had been among the 10,000 left in Cambria to hold the land, though he'd been out scouting when the military of Nevermere descended upon his people. Though he and his party ran to aid them, the battle was finished before they could arrive. Rather than dying with them or returning home, Izen and his tribesmen camped in the mountains, devising a plan. They were stumbled upon by three men. Izen killed one, but the older of the three pulled out a weapon the likes of which Izen and his friends had never seen. It cut through their weapons and their bodies with ease. All were slain, and Izen would have been had he not, to his everlasting shame, run. He returned to Bantu Siri weary and bloodied, claiming the Nevermere enemies had sent him to Bantu Siri to tell of what had happened in Cambria.
He was also present at the battle in his home village when the Chieftess rode in on her giant flying creature and tried to take their people. Izen raised his bow and shot down Cambrian after Cambrian with his people. He was the one calling the shots that day, and was able to regain some honor after the shame of previous experiences.
