Let me know what you think or needs changing. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> And anybody is free to read as I like feedback. This is just to save space.[SBLOCK]Physical Description:Kyros appears to be a Human male of above average height and weight, 6’1” and 171 lbs. His build is best described as muscular and lean, like someone who spends much of his time running. With features that are somewhat sharp, but well proportioned, they give him a look that is both pleasant and intense. Kyros’ hair is black almost to the point of looking blue, worn long and reaching to his past his shoulder blades, while he wears a goatee he is meticulously groomed most of the times. But the most striking feature is his eyes, a dark blue, which seem equally adept at conveying comfort and menace. He normally wears an outfit most accustom to those that spend their time exploring, not including his armor, consisting of a shirt, vest, pants, and knee high boots. His outfits are normally loose but not baggy, to maximize comfort without affecting his movement. The vest, pants, and boots are made from black leather known for its waterproof qualities. His shirts are normally dyed a dark blue to match his eyes and made of cotton for comfort and durability. He also wears a poncho and oilskin hat in desert colors.Whenever able Kyros is known to wear a suit of At-A11 Kuro Light Armor dyed black. And for weapons he normally carries a AT-130 Particle Beam Pistol and a H-15 “Scattergun” Shotgun, as well as, at least one knife at all times. His combat gear includes a survival pack containing an assortment of survival tools and his sleeping bag.Personality:If there were just one word to describe Kyros, it would be “Driven”. He is known as a friendly and jovial person, that is easy to get along with and a font of knowledge just for the asking, and sometimes even if you don’t. But if he has a task at hand to focus on he does just that no matter the obstacles set before him.Background: (Known)The man known John Kyros was born in the frontier town of New Vegas, or more specifically his families farm just south, on October 31, (Current Year?). His father was Gary Kyros, a former city guardsman, turned solar energy farmer. His mother was Rebecca Davis Kyros, a former runaway from Jasperville (Small town to the north overrun by D-Bee’s). His family had also included a younger brother Alvin, and younger sister Sarah, though what became of them is unknown. Unfortunately are to have been killed in a D-Bee raid of outlying farms.His childhood though ended rather quickly even by Rifts Earth standards. By the time he was eight his family and their farm had been destroyed, by something called a Brodkill. But as luck would have it John was at a neighbor’s house that fateful night. Distraught and lost for his place in the world the little boy actually asked a mercenary group passing thru a few months later for a spot. John offered to be their camp monkey, doing any and every odd job, in return for food, a place to sleep, and training how to fight. While there he learned that not all D-Bee were bad and not all humans were good, having seen just as much death and destruction from their hands.And so his education progressed for the better part of twelve years. And as his abilities increased so to did his opportunity within the band of mercenaries. When his skill had progressed beyond what they could teach he took his small stash of funds and equipment and decided to try his own hand. That is until he met the odd little guy known as Graycloak (a.k.a. David Grier). Almost from the start he took a liking to the man. Feeling that as much as he worries, it would be that much less for Kyros. Background: (Actual)In reality the man known as John Kyros is actually Kyros Gedris, an Atlantean of Clan Aerihman. As far as his family is concerned he has so many relations spread over so many planets a true count has even been attempted in over 900 years. His parents are Ley Line Walkers and dimensional travels that were never what you would call the parental type. So Kyros was in fact raised by a plethora of relatives, family friends, and the occasional servant. If he has siblings he was never informed, and for the most part he doesn’t care.  Now it was around his 16th year that his, and the John Kyros alter ego, began to form. It was at this time that he first arrived on Earth near the town of New Vegas. Stepping from a small rift he was taken by surprise by a town, for all purposes, going to war. Buildings were ablaze and people were almost evenly split between those running in fear and those running to defend. Watching the defenders trying to kill a small pack of Brodkill Kyros jumped in figuring if nothing else it might make the towns folk barter more favorably. He even joined the posse that later formed to check the outlying farms. And that is where he first met John Kryn, a dying 8 year old, about to join his family. The child stuck out because he kept trying to get on his feet to find his family, despite wounds that would have killed many other men. Figuring it would probably be best to keep a low profile he began concocting a cover story (refer to Background – Known). At the same time so that Kyros could learn more of this new world, at least for him, he joined up with a rag-tag band of miscreants (Mercenaries) called the Dust Devils. And he traveled with them for the better part of twelve years. Then he joined the Chupacabras out of the lands formerly known as Texas. He traveled with that group till he met and befriended Graycloak and began traveling with him.[/SBLOCK]</blockquote>
