Real Name: Cillian Devlin Guthrie Devon
~Human Name: Cillian Devon
Species: Elf
Gender: Male
Age (human equivalent): 25
~Age (for non-humans): 3910
Position in School: Graduate Student: bio-chemistry major
Appearance: Cillian is neither tall nor short for his race, standing at an average 5’10” and a little on the slender side at 151 lbs. He is fair in complexion, much like his siblings, with at one point, long, chestnut colored hair. In more recent times, he has it cut shorter, in a more wispy men’s cut. He carries the grey blue eyes of his mother and faint freckles on his nose and under his eyes. He, unlike his older brother, carries a more solemn expression of one who is constantly thinking- his mind always occupied. He bears remarkable resemblance to his brother Aiden, differing only in the color of their hair and Cillian’s slightly flatter chin and larger lips. Cillian is also one who takes much stock in appearances, and thusly dresses very businesslike regardless of the circumstances- donning black or blue suits, slacks and button ups- mostly with ties.
He is slender of build, much like the rest of his family. The Devons were not built for hand to hand combat- as they come from a long line of powerful elementals- and thus they have all maintained a lean build. As comes with someone who is obsessive about his appearance, he works out regularly- most aerobic but with some light toning to keep his muscles in shape. He, like Aiden, conquered his fear of water and continues to mock his element by swimming daily.
Personality: Cillian is the kind of man who couldn’t be judged based upon his words and the emotions he portrays. Trained since he was very young to mask his emotions and be civil under all circumstances, Cillian has learned near infinite patience and a sort of cold, calculating calmness. Like his sister, Cillian is the vindictive sort, but unlike her, he does not show his displeasure outwardly. To him, revenge is a dish best served cold and calmly, with intense swiftness. He is not easily angered, but will remain in a state of irritation for a prolonged period of time.
Cillian also has a tendency to be extremely obsessive-compulsive, and a perfectionist to near a fault. He is meticulous in his actions and will work at a project until it is completed to absolute perfection. He will accept nothing less- and may spend days on a single potion without sleep. He also has particular set of daily patterns that must be completed in specific order- for example: eating. He will not eat the food if it has been contaminated by the other foods- thus his dinner must be served with several plates, one plate for each component and arranged in order (grain, meat, vegetable) and must be eaten in that order (potato, meat, carrot, potato, meat, carrot, potato, meat, carrot, ect). His possessions have specific places in his room and he knows immediately if something has moved from it’s space. His cell phone is always placed on his left hand side at a 45 degree angle for easy access. The remote control of the television must always be six inches in front of the table lamp next to the recliner.
The most blatantly obvious of his obsessions is with his subconscious actions involving his mouth. Cillian must have something in his mouth or against his lips at almost all times- the most severe of which is the chewing of hair. When his hair was longer, Cillian would chew the ends of his own, frequently having to trim the damaged ends until his wife grew so irritated with his actions that she and his mother cut his hair short. He is constantly chewing his lip or pressing his fingers to them to smooth the flesh. He can be frequently seen eating and is an avid gum chewer and a smoker.
However strange his actions may be, his studious nature makes him a superlative worker. He has learned, over the years to work quickly, efficiently and perfectly- specifically in the learned craft of potions making, where he excels spectacularly, after the guidance and tutelage of his mother.
Cillian also suffers from slight but prolonged post traumatic disorder- in the form of emotional avoidance and nightmares (similar to his brother Aiden) as a result of the human/elf wars 2000 years ago. Although he was not old enough to directly participate in the war, he worked both in the armory, repairing armor and weapons, and in the infirmary, assisting the healers and giving victims sedatives and potions to ease pain. He witnessed, though did not directly participate in, the many horrors of the war and grew to despise humans, particularly after his brother was injured in the war. Cillian likes to avoid discussing the war at length or his troubles dealing with the injury of his older brother.
Likes: Hair, reading, technology, potions, his family, elves, dark places, things to be exactly as he left them, cigarettes, suits, blondes, secrecy, chewing things, eating (specifically sweet things like cake)
Dislikes: humans, blood, imperfection, slow-minded people, “hyper” people, melodrama, dramatics, emotional people, being told he is wrong, being told he is strange/imperfect in some way, humans, troublemakers, those who do not agree with his ideologies, gossip
Magic Capabilities:]Cillian comes from a long line of very powerful magic users. Unlike most elves, Cillian has a propensity for more than one element: fire and earth. Although he excels far greater in earth magic, he still practices fire magic with the aid of his father and older brother, Aiden, both of whom are far better at the element than he. He has studied under the tutelage of his mother Aeriell in the art of poisons and chemicals alongside his sister, though he learned much more questionable material than his more delicate sister. He has worked as his mother’s aide in her tasks, often running errands as her apprentice.
