Civilian

Tristan is an intelligent university student studying in the domain of law. He is a second year student and studies at the university of Mcgill in Canada. The male has scholarship and a natural talent at studying and memorizing things. He works as a part time tutor for the low-grades students and gets paid fairly well. The work is relaxing and he even has extra money due to the scholarship that he has been given. Tristan doesn't need to find any other extra jobs since his family doesn't have financial problems unlike some of his friends at the university.

appearence

Scars of lands where rain hesitates to fall, a body touched by the gods. Vivacious, but lacking, a vessel of extreme physical beauty, but diluted by the essence of darkness. No one can boost such attractiveness, no people could never compare Tristan to the ones before them in term of attractiveness. A flaw in statement only by the glistening of ruby instead of sapphire. Each orb palpable and considerable in their own strength, gleaming in their intelligence and unfathomable beauty, but lacking something in the depths.

They are fragile almost, like pieces of stained glass or fine silks. A touch alone would seem to be too much, but a glance from them, few could resist. Set are these precious jewels on the visage of Tristan, so touched by Aphrodite’s calm hand, then carved out till the aging have been halted.

The male features, sharp and complex make up the brunt of his face, constructed of only the peerless material’s available. A bold chin, shaped highly and in remembrance of a nobleman with authority. No streaks of brown hair, no thin eyebrows or illustrious lips can give him that attraction. An absence of this life makes him appear as a cold ice mirror about his face; a specimen of absolute coldness and desirable to the eye, but fleeting. Each dark brown wave of hair that rocks pleasantly like a field of grain in the wind, is a reminder to himself of how cold he is. Each portion of this face grants expression in great detail, sadness, anger, happiness and the like all compete for a moment to exist. Each shining brighter than the last when their moment on stage comes, though briefly flashing; the emotions are conveyed with great strength brought home like a blade across the psyches of those witnessing the act.

Overall, he is a tall and light skinned man, possibly French or Britannic in origin from his tone of skin. His orientation is enhanced by his physical build, holding himself with an average muscular build though not overly so.. Lean but well built and defined he holds every muscle with a equal strength, tone and definition. His broad shoulder's slope a bit before angling into a well muscles chest and then moving down into a full eight pack that he's obviously worked hard to earn.

Although he holds the Constant Physique and build of the usual Physically active sportsman and one handsome features, he is not without his flaws, one of his traits being his eye color has the unnatural color of red, being rather intimidating and mysterious at first glance.

Tristan is not quite vain, but has a sense of his own presence. Holding himself with a noble air, he is almost at a constant 90 degree angle when he walks, hands in pocket, chin high, and with the slightest forward lean. His posture and mannerisms do not change at all.

In origin Tristan has no orientation, but he chooses to mix elements of French with the Britannic ideals as well though he wear his white tuxedo uniform most of the time.

His first layer of clothing exists solely as a plain deep black colored top, untextured and coarse, marked more as a tight shirt than anything to make a fashion statement. It appears to be made of a single piece of cloth, woven by a master with no increments of stitching or signs of thread used upon the piece. Said shirt hangs loosely from his figure, which he tucks into the coat or long sleeved vest.

As articles of clothing go, the rest of Tristan’s ensemble is simple. Over the black-shirt is a simple long sleeved vest or coat, the brunt of which is pure white; however, along the neck line and the stitches are a silver in lay giving a more regal appearance. The rest of Tristan’s coat, or the long sleeved vest, black tuxedo, is only worn in special occasions.

Personality

Where the river Styx ends or begins, an eternal question on the lips of the forlorn, too torn about by the bloody cycle of birth, death and rebirth to care. So to is this young soul cast about the torrents of time and trapped inside a icy shell. Thus, there was poured, in a cascade through the eons, a personality.

One cosmic mistake leading into the birth of a species and the spirits, each holding claim to their own traits and abilities. Amongst all of them, arose Tristan, rising from the dust and thistles, erupting from day one and considered as a star. So begins his personality as a clear shining symbol of where he came from; despite, his current position.

Determination and courage are his prime traits, an inability to back down or give up in the face of adversity. No matter how far down he has been beaten, until he can no longer move, he will stand back up and continue onward for the sake of his comrades.

Nothing to date has ever made him stop advancing forward through life, ever. Tragedies have occurred and friends have been lost, many incurable wounds occurred because of him, but he manages to pick himself up and carry on. He has regrets, there are things he wish he hadn’t done and he reflects on these, but never once has he left them become more than thoughts.

His determination and desire to advance further and further have never granted him a moment to stop, he pushes himself until he is exhausted. Rest or hesitation on anything, barring socializing, is unheard of for him. He sleeps once his jobs are done or it is absolutely necessary for him to be at peek performance; otherwise, he will not stop.

His outward personality makes him to seem a little colder than he really is, being one who tends to not associate with others too much on a personal level. Though he does initiate and participate in conversation when it comes to major events and other work-related matters, the male is usually silent majority of the time, usually giving simple direct answers and leaving very little room for small talk. At times, his words can be a little too blunt and insensitive as well; hence, why he usually keeps his mouth shut. He also can be a little hot-headed, and openly shows his irritation on his face once someone starts getting under his skin.

He is well-rounded with many and varied hobbies (the list of which is constantly growing), owed to the fact that he’s ready and willing to try anything. In his leisure time, Tristan has taken up piano, designing, art, oration, free-weights, and Parkour; He also enjoys the music .

Through time the youth seems to have developed a secondary personality as he often keeps it at bay. While his outer personality remains to be that of a noble and charismatic one , what's inside would be a totally different story. Never judge a book by it's appearance , one would say. Inside of Tristan rests a cold emotionless monster . It's the total opposite of his first personality and Tristan becomes really manipulative and snide once unleashing his true self out.

Yet, Tristan has a paranoia feeding on his soul, grinding against the depth of his very being. As a human being he suffered the ultimate betrayal by someone he trusted greatly; this grievous wound has left a scar on his psyche. Tristan is a respectful character out of a sense of self-preservation. One could consider him almost like a nobleman, though considering his current reactions and attitudes , it makes sense.

History

Hailing from a long secluded noble family of lawyers and financial managers, it's very clear where Tristan's mannerisms and style of dress originate from. In ages long past the Menethil family had been one of the beacon of France, and though their numbers have thinned drastically in the present years they still adhere to those traditions to this very day. One could say the Menethil family tenants are similar to those dark organizations.

Himself was born into a branch within the vast family , Tristan held the status of nobility ever since he was born and was given everything his heart desired. Spoiled and arrogant , the boy was often looked down and hated upon his peers. No one ever wanted to play with him , thus he was left alone during most of his childhood. Tristan paid special attention to his goal in life. It was during this process that people began to take note of him, and soon he succeeded into getting a good college named Dawson, as it represented success in his goal to become a lawyer.

As his study progressed and his renown within the family grew, Tristan was steadily beginning to get taught the family's illustrious history. He was the star that everyone counted on. Every member of the family had great faith in him , thus forcing him to study even harder. It was in high school that the boy meet his first love , though the relation ship didn't last long because of the influence of his parents. Tristan tried several times to escape them , though he would be caught within their grasp each time. Tristan learned that they were useless and futile acts as he gave up on the idea.

After a few years of hard study , Tristan finally succeeded to get into the most prestigious university of Canada. He earned a really big scholarship due to his unrivaled intelligence and has even been admitted as one of the teacher advisers. Having no need to get a second job , Tristan already has all the money he needs to live. Fleeting from his parents the boy is trying to lead on a solitary life by living in a apartment alone , although his parent send people to visit him regularly.
