Nickname: En
Age: 19 20 21 22 23 24
Gender/Pronouns: Cis man, he/him
Birthday: February 14
Height: 6'3"
Sign: Aquarius
Gemstone: Amethyst
Blood Type: A+
Fav. Food: Crempogau, Welsh buttermilk pancakes
Hated Food: Black pudding. No. Thank. You.
School: Destiny City University, working on a PhD in Robotics Engineering. Also TAs for several classes.
Hobbies:
Robotics || Enfys loves robotics, and ever since elementary school, has been involved in robotics teams and competition. He loves to build them, study them, and figure out what makes them tick, and he has a particular fascination with true artificial intelligences. His dream is to one day build a robot that will pass the Turing Test. He plans to name her GLaDOS.
Sci-Fi || Enfys absolutely adores science fiction, from Dr. Who to Mass Effect to Forbidden Planet. He loves the new stuff, the old stuff, all of it - and he doesn't care how cheesy it is! If it's about the future and technology, Enfys probably likes it. It's also the only time he can turn off his logic, for the most part - sometimes you just have to sit back and accept that the movie's gonna break the laws of physics.
Cooking || Specifically, traditional Welsh dishes. Enfys has been cooking for a long time, ever since his parents died and he had to start taking care of himself and his sister. So he learned traditional Welsh recipes, as a way of helping himself and her keep their parents' culture alive within their family.
Baitareacht || While it's traditionally Irish, not Welsh, Enfys still loves the art of baitareacht, Irish stick-fighting. It's a very physical hobby, and helps him stay in shape - and it's also pretty classy to be able to fight with a cane, or so he thinks. He takes lessons at a small school run by an Irish immigrant, and most of the other students there are of Welsh, Irish, or Scottish descent.
Virtues:
Logical || Enfys prides himself on his ability to analyze a situation logically and come out with the correct answer. He does his best not to get too emotionally invested in interpersonal situations, not let his emotions and frustrations get away with him, and consider the logical routes to solving problems and conflicts and getting around roadblocks in life.
Confident || Enfys is generally fairly self-confident and tends to believe that he will be successful in endeavors he takes on. He rarely overworries about failure, and while he considers the possibility that he might, he does not pay it much thought unless, somehow, failure is actually occurring. He is also fairly comfortable with himself, on the whole, and sees little reason to over humble himself or hide facets of who he is. (Except perhaps his ability to Have a Feeling that isn't "stoic grunting noise." )
Disciplined || Enfys is very good at managing his time, sorting out what needs to be done when, and ensuring that his responsibilities are taken care of. He raised a younger sister almost entirely by himself while juggling school and work, managed excellent grades that got him first a scholarship to Azure and then a full ride to DCU, and has kept up since. His skills at priority management means that he does not let himself get overwhelmed but also refuses to slack off or laze about.
Flaws:
Ruthless || Enfys has a somewhat alarming ruthless streak. He has very little care for other people beyond those close to him, and will do whatever he feels is necessary to accomplish a goal - generally within the realm of morality, but sometimes not. He would not, for instance, cheat on a school assignment (he doesn't feel the need to) but he might ensure that his top competitor in a robotics fair experienced a...totally unpredictable critical malfunction. With their robot, of course.
Untrusting || Enfys is slow to let people in, and with the death of his sister - perhaps the only person he actually did care about - he has become even more so. People will lie, cheat, steal, screw you over, and hurt you, and the only person you can really rely on is yourself. He actively shoves people away, refuses to talk about himself or his problems, and is otherwise generally unpleasantly and sometimes rudely asocial. Enfys is not a pleasant dude to be around by any means.
Overly Logical || Sometimes, Enfys becomes too detached from a situation, and cannot see beyond the "logic" of the thing to the humanity involved in it. He will take the most logical solution, but it is rarely the kindest one. He is often accused of being a robot himself, but Enfys insists it isn't so terrible to have someone who isn't worrying about feelings all the time.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Some combination of green and blue, round
Hair: Pastel ombre, styled like the Eccentric Resonance hair (so same/similar style as in his powered ref, just different colors!)
Face: Very pale, a light smattering of freckles across his nose
Build: Enfys is 6'3", very buff and muscular. ATHLETIC NERD, YO.
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
- Albert Einstein

Challenge: "What can the harvest hope for, but the care of the reaper?"
Weapon
Lieutenant Weapon: A black shillelagh
Captain Weapon: A black staff with a heavy-looking orb on top. Anyone struck by the staff will feel as if they’ve just been dunked in cold water for 5 seconds after the hit, but the effect only activates once every 30 seconds. There can be lingering feelings of cold chills up to player discretion.
General Weapon: An ice-themed scythe. Anyone struck by the scythe will feel as if they’ve just been dunked in cold water for 5 seconds after the hit, but the effect only activates once every 30 seconds. There can be lingering feelings of cold chills up to player discretion.
Youma Name: Eira
Type: Humanoid
Appearance: A direwolf, with bright, intensely blue eyes, snow-white fur tipped with frost, and ice growing around her claws.
Ability: Eira's teeth and claws are ice cold, and always feel chilly to the touch, but twice per day, she can channel frost into her fangs or claws and leave a painful sensation of frostbite around the injuries for 20 seconds. She requires six hours to recharge between uses of this ability.
Note:
Tristan Enfys is the older brother of Menae of Mercury, a disposable played in shibrogane's Mistral event; she is therefore retconned to have been Mycenae of Mercury. (This has been approved!)
Basically she was Mycenae -> she died -> power passed to her brother as Mycenae is a descendant line! The reason he did not initially receive it is that Mycenae Knight is typically a woman, and so power preferentially went to his sister; however, with no other option, it has now gone to him!

Mycenae was a research facility for, essentially, magitek AI and robotics research. Myceneans were known as clever engineers, and developed what were, effectively, golems. With some magic and a little technology as help, some of the later models came close to approximating what we would consider artificial intelligence.
Many of these golems were destroyed, the rest are dormant or otherwise unusable
“No knowledge is forbidden.”
― Mycenean Motto

Knight Title: Mycenae Page of Mercury
Challenge: "Winter is coming."
Weapon --
Page:
A small shillelagh, about two feet long, which appears to be fashioned from some sort of white wood inlaid with bright blue circuitry.
Squire:
A shillelagh, about four feet long, which appears to be fashioned from some sort of white wood inlaid with bright blue circuitry and a blue orb on top.
Magic:
Mycenae grips his shillelagh, and the orb at the top as well as the circuit inlays glow bright blue. He points it, and can launch small glowing blue orbs within a six-foot radius, which stick to solid objects, walls, or the ground, but not clothing/people/animals. These are essentially concussive grenades - when they go off, they emit a horrifically loud screech (similar to a combination of dial-up tone, static, and all those horrible noises your computer makes when it's dying) and a powerful burst of cold air. (These effects are instantaneous; the screech only lasts for a moment.) These can either act as proximity mines, going off when someone gets within a foot of them, or Mycenae can smack his shillelagh against the ground and detonate them all at once; any detonation means that Mycenae cannot summon another orb for 10 seconds. He can only produce three orbs at a time. The orbs persist until they detonate or he stops channeling or runs out of magic (at which point they dissipate harmlessly). Myceane is the only person unaffected by his own magic -- allies can detonate the orbs and will be affected by the screeching noise, but Mycenae himself cannot activate them by proximity and the screech is less loud/painful to him. Mycenae's magic pool is 35 seconds at Squire.
Knight:
A staff, appearing to be made of white wood with blue circuit inlays, and a top similar to this, about six and a half feet long from end to end (so just slightly taller than Mycenae himself)
Magic:
Mycenae grips his staff, and the orb at the top as well as the circuit inlays glow bright blue. He points it, and can launch small glowing blue orbs within a ten-foot radius, which stick to solid objects, walls, or the ground, but not clothi g/people/animals. These are essentially concussive grenades - when they go off, they emit a horrifically loud screech (similar to a combination of dial-up tone, static, and all those horrible noises your computer makes when it's dying) and a powerful burst of cold air. (These effects are instantaneous; the screech only lasts for a moment.) These can either act as proximity mines, going off when someone gets within a foot of them, or Mycenae can smack his staff against the ground and detonate them all at once; any detonation means that Mycenae cannot summon another orb for 10 seconds. He can now produce up to six orbs at once. The orbs persist until they detonate or he stops channeling or runs out of magic (at which point they dissipate harmlessly). Myceane is the only person unaffected by his own magic -- allies can detonate the orbs and will be affected by the screeching noise, but Mycenae himself cannot activate them by proximity and the screech is less loud/painful to him. Mycenae's magic pool is 45 seconds at Knight.
