Cyrus Bell
A boy from a relatively poor family, Cyrus transfers to the boarding school during the spring of his second year thanks to a diploma. Although he is beautiful to the point he steals Claude’s spotlight at school when he arrives, Cyrus has a short temper and he gets angered and frustrated very easily, and he doesn’t enjoy the attention of other boys. While he pretends to come from a rich family to avoid being looked down upon by others, his rough language and behavior sooner or later reveal his lies. His special skill is having a wide array of displeased and grumpy faces he can pull, and it's truly a miracle a human being can have so much variation in displeased faces.
Despite his obvious flaws, Cyrus is still generally a kind boy who doesn’t like too much attention and adoration coming from others, and he prefers small groups of friends over large ones. He is also very hard-working and practical thanks to his upbringing in a relatively poor and small village, and he is especially good at first aid. He gets attached to people quickly and doesn’t usually hate others easily, even if he might have some vague dislike towards some at first. Cyrus is featured in the world X and is affiliated strongly with the Sinfonia cast, especially Jonathan and Claude. However, he does not make an appearance in the game. AppearanceCyrus is a boy of a shorter stature, only 152cm in height and with somewhat slim build. Before his accident Cyrus was quite active with physical tasks and as such had a relatively athletic body, but after a year of being forced to take things much easier he has gotten weaker and a little more scrawny. His left knee is always bandaged from waist to ankle, and underneath the bandages he has multiple small scars. He has a light skin with creamy white, poofy hair resembling a poodle’s head a little with curled and round hair ends. His eyebrows are the same colour as his hair and relatively large. His eyes are amber-coloured and vigilant looking, although Cyrus is more often than not presented with varying degrees of a frown on his face. His face is remarkably girl-like with soft features, long eyelashes and red, glossy lips.
He is usually featured wearing the boarding school’s uniform with a prefect’s cravat. The only difference to the normal outfit are his sock garters, his visible bandages and black socks instead of white for unknown reason. |
Personality
Having grown up in a less than well-off family, Cyrus has learned to understand the importance of work. In that sense he has learned to be dutiful and responsible, and he most definitely isn’t someone who purposefully wants to slack off on things he has promised to carry on. However, because of this dutifulness and high responsibility, Cyrus usually avoids volunteering into extra work in order not to burn himself out: as much as he wants and loves to help and be in charge of carrying things out, he understands he can’t always do it all.
Especially because of his knee condition, Cyrus is very aware of his own limits and understands when he can’t do something, no matter how much he would like to. However, this also frustrates him greatly, and as the damage is still somewhat new to him, Cyrus has hard time dealing with his limits sometimes. Especially given his short temper and tendency to get impatient fast, it’s no wonder he is often having a bad mood that might result in mean and pissed off replies even to nice questions. However, as fast as he is to anger, he is also just as quick to calm down.
Cyrus feels embarrassed by his roots and somewhat low social status, and as such he tends to pretend he is from a wealthier family than he actually is. He has adopted a somewhat arrogant and snobby attitude, but the wall of deception is fast to come down when his own feelings get more intense and he forgets his own act. When natural, Cyrus tends to use somewhat foul language and his behavior is often somewhat rowdy and brash, even when he doesn’t mean any harm. Although he himself is ashamed of it and wishes to act more like a noble boy, others find his personality more charming than anything, especially due to the contrast with his looks.
As a friend Cyrus is very loyal, and despite his reserved behavior he actually gets attached to others very fast. It’s surprisingly easy to make friends with him once some sort of shared trait or interest is found, and Cyrus tends to open up very fast.

Past
*This section needs more things
Cyrus was born in a northern country to a nurse mother and a carpenter father. He was the only child and got plenty of love growing up, but his parents were also strict enough to Cyrus that he knew his place. They were a middle class family back then, but things changed when Cyrus’ grandmother died and they had to move to his father’s home country: they had to take over his parents’ old business, and ended up getting into legal trouble, eventually losing a good chunk of their wealth and belongings and becoming a lower middle class (borderline working class) family.
This didn’t bother Cyrus much though, and he was happy to live in a small village and play with others. He was in no way a remarkable kid in any topic, but he was generally liked by others especially when he was younger. But as Cyrus grew older, his looks started bothering other kids, and he was bullied by others. However, proud as he was, Cyrus didn’t let this get to him, and he eventually managed to gain respect as a school prefect.

- He used to play a family piano a lot but mostly just as a hobby. He had the knack for it but didn't feel particularly ambitious about it, so he was not particularly great.
- When he was around 13 he got into an accident while fooling around with others, and he got his leg permanently damaged.
- Goes to attend the same boarding school as Claude and Jonathan during his second year's spring as he receives a diploma of sort
Trivia
- Got his leg hurt when he was 13 and was told it would never return back to normal.
His knee is loose and he keeps it bandaged so it won’t get dislocated + to tell when he is pulling his leg into a wrong direction without noticing. It limits his movement considerably. - Really good at darts! He is good at throwing things in general, everything from rocks to knives. He grew up with quite rowdy boys and learned a lot weird things from them.
- Desperately wants to get better at piano playing because all his old career dreams were crushed in the accident. He finds it sometimes hard and frustrating to settle with calm hobbies when he used to be into football and other physical activities.
- Cyrus’ mother is a nurse and as result he has learned first aid from her. Not only that, but as he has to take care of his own leg he has gotten extra serious about that kind of thing.
