AppearanceAt five feet and ten inches tall, Connor's 156 pounds gives him a very lanky look. He has grey eyes and very dark brown hair which tends to look nearly black in the colder months of the year, and lightens slightly in the summer, giving hints of his mother's flaming red mane. His hair however is strait, where his mother's is a mass of curls and he's quite proud of his hair. His mother often says she can see his father in his features, which he takes as a compliment, as he has only ever heard her mother describe his father as 'a beautiful man'.
His nose is long strait and slender and he has a wide, full mouth. His lips turn very slightly down at the corners, but he's more often then not smiling so it doesn't make him seem at all moody. He has a birthmark high on his back just below his neck that his mother says is shaped like a dog, Connor thinks however, that it looks more like spilled coffee. His delicate bone structure in combination of his hair often makes him look very girlish, but it doesn't bother him. He is aware that he's a rather beautiful individual, as he's often told, but it hasn't made him arrogant. He tends to wear casual clothing. He's a huge fan of tshirts and loves sweaters and scarves.
BackgroundConnor Cygnus was born February 12th 1980, in
Shore Street, which is located in the Highlands of Scotland and more popularly known as Applecross. His mother, Annie Summers, raised him alone. She told him very little of his father, and he learned when he was young not to question her about him, as it was obviously a painful subject for her. She's a kind-hearted woman who has a tendency to open her house to all sorts of strays. When he was about 8 his mother bought a larger house toward the northern end of 'The Street' and opened it as a bed and breakfast for those few who came there. He has no other siblings.
Where He's FromShore Street, or
Applecross, which is more commonly called 'The Street' has a less then 300. Outsiders are rare, because of the sheer difficulty of reaching the small town. The community has been around for 1300 years, give or take a quarter-century.
