CD - Cyrus Farahmand

[AnteaterAshley]

MC Username: AnteaterAshley

Name: Cyrus Farahmand
   
Traits and Political Views:
Hot-Headed - Cyrus has an extremely short fuse, and is generally quick to anger. Combative, unwavering, and headstrong, Cyrus can be a serious pain in the ass to work alongside.

Silver-Tongued - Cyrus knows his bottom line. The rat race spares none, and if you want to make it as a supply-runner in the modern day, you have GOT to know how to seal a deal!

Strong Work Ethic - Cyrus knows that he's got to work to eat, and eat to live. He's accepted that sailing the seas is a genuine full-time job, and not just a 40 hour work week.

Expensive Tastes - Cyrus rakes in a lot of cash, that much is true, but his funds always seem to be running low. Curious!

Albino - Cyrus sure stands out in a crowd, with his silver hair and light blue eyes defying the genes of the Farahmand family. Unfortunately, this is more of a hinderance on the high seas, and Cyrus often finds himself with pretty bad sunburns if he spends too much time above deck.

Susceptible to Addiction - Cyrus easily finds himself hooked on substances, although he tries his best to keep this a secret to protect his credibility.

Aggressively Hedonistic - What's the point of living if you're not really living?

Some goals:

- Acquire a proper trading vessel, capable of holding large amounts of cargo.

- Run goods from port city to port city.

- Eventually settle down, maybe have children. Who knows? That's so far away.

Background:
Born in 1770 to the Farahmand family in the spring of 1770, Cyrus had anything but a typical childhood. Raised in an extremely impoverished family, he was always brought as a second set of hands to his father's job at the Forge. If you thought that this would make them any closer, you'd be dead wrong. The two of them were so explosive that the slightest disagreement would cause a nuclear chain reaction. Eventually, Cyrus saved up enough money to purchase a horse, which he used to ride to Vidinia. The rest of his spending money went to getting plastered at the tavern after that. Eventually, he was offered a position as crew of a whaleship. It was here where Cyrus shined the brightest, with his strong work ethic, headstrong nature, and silver tongue proving exceptionally useful in the tracking, hunting, and selling of whales and their components. Shortly after he took up whaling, Cyrus had an intense falling out with his family, who strongly disapproved of his new, dangerous profession. Things came to a head when Cyrus stood up to his father against his treatment of his sister, Leila. He has not spoken to them since, nor does he intend to, but he still thinks of his sister often.

After the harpooner of his crew and Cyrus' best friend, Kian, was killed in a hunt, Cyrus was spooked away from whaling for good. That is, until he really needs the money again. For now though, he's got a pretty cushy gig as a traveling merchant. Flipping goods is easy money, but it can get quite dull for a rebellious spirit like Cyrus. Currently, he's on a mission to taste every ale across the Carpesian Archipelago, but nobody, least of all Cyrus, knows where life will take him next.

Oh yeah btw he's Cajra of the Ardeshiri sect, but not he's nearly as devout of a supporter as his sister.

I read "Prone to Addiction" as "Porn Addiction"
