Description

Kyo is seventeen, and despite retaining his youth, his chiselled looks give the impression of experience. He has dark blue hair, which is relatively short and well mantained. He is thin and reasonably tall, but also relatively muscular. His casual clothing usually comprises of some black trousers and a white shirt, underneath a leather jacket, which reaches the waist.He also occasionally dons a more decorative outfit, a two-piece suit esque affair, coloured an ivory white, and embroidaried with patterns of gold throughout. He carries a katana and a backpack with him at all times, excetp, of course, whilst performing, where it is nestled backstage, or nearby.

Personality

Under the seventeen year old, blue haired boy's, sleek, yet muscular, exterior, hides a hardened spirit, created through a childhood of hardship, all the more galvanised by his psychic abilities, which have given him a purpose, to try and help those in a similar poverty. He is a travelling psychic and as a result, an engaging performer. People who have seen his shows find themselves suprised that, in the world outside his occupation, he is actually quite cold, however his quick wit is always visible, if only as a device to demean those he distrusts. However, when helping those in need, he is seen to be a more passionate character, willing to draw sword to protect those who do not have the capacity to do so themselves. He sees aristocrats as leeches of the land and its people, and seeks to create an equal and just world - without them. His good deeds have earned him contacts across the land, and the title "Blue Tiger". Often, he uses his high brow "World Famous Psychic Entertainment Show" to attract the higher classes, only to invite a different sort of audience alongside them - those looking for a five-fngered discount.

Equipment

He carries a katana and a backpack with him at all times, except, of course, whilst performing, where it is nestled backstage, or nearby. In the backpack he carries rations, water and his other outfit. It also contains his money and a basic survival kit. His katana ha mysterious engravings along the blunt side off the blade, whilst it's holster, a more subtle, affair as not to attract attention. It is said, the "Blue Tiger" is better identified by blade than face.

History

A healthy young child iving in a nameless slum, it seemed Kyo was destined for the mines or slavery. However, as he watched those around him perish, or succumb to "employment", in the loosest term of the word, he found himself sneaking into libraries, educating himself and his sister, and anyone else willing to follow. He soon realised that this ambition, thirst for knowledge, was beyond his peers, soon realised that his intuition was actually keeping his friends alive, as slavers raided his neighbourhood constantly. A travelling magician discovered his ability and was wiling to teach him, but at the cost of joining his nomadic lifestyle, knowing that he was leaving his friends and family behind in an almost fatal position. However, seeing the opportunity for her brother, Kyo's sister, realising that although she was relatively talentless, Kyo could become anything, if he wanted. So she, with Kyo's friends made the difficult decision of leaving, without a farewell, to force Kyo forward. A year later, he returned, to find wasteland and a bandit stronghold. Legend says he first picked up a sword then, and let his soul guide his sword in a massacre. The truth is more modest. Kyo was taught swordsmanship by the travelling magician, but mainly used his psychic abilties to sneak in and release some slaves, none of which he recognised. Either way, the "Blue Tiger" was born. Three years later, he has given up hope of finding his sister, but will continue to fight oppression until a greater cause inspires him to glory.

Kyo Scopes walked over to the mysterious, pistol toting man writing at the table and inquired into his startling entry. "That seemed a little uneccesary."

Kyo Scopes looked at this curious man in a trench coat, bemused. "Uh huh, I'm not sure that I can comment on any of that. I find daemons tend to be... outside of my comfort zone." The young blue haired adolescent took the oppourtunity to grab a pue opposite the man whom had captured his curiousity, for the time being.

Kyo Scopes relaxed, seeing his questioning was an unwanted bother on a busy man, felt secure in that his target was deserving of his curiousity. "Well, precisely what do you hunt. or more interestingly, why do you hunt? Money, I suppose, would be the obvious reason. Seems to fuel everything these days" said the young man, with a sadness in his voice as he completed his obversation.

Kyo Scopes getting up and dusting himself off, says. "Ayargh... that was certainatly unecessary", said Kyo, with a wry smile on his face. "Well, anyway. My name is Kyo Scopes, and I'm sure we'll get along just fine. I mean, you have an... interesting temperement, and I'm too far away from home to care."

Kyo Scopes was startled at his new acquaintence's violent disposition, but secure in the knowledge that Gideon hadn't percieved him as a threat. "So, I take it there one of those demons you chase here, or something.I'm handy with a sword, if you need a hand."

Kyo Scopes scouted the room for the demon-girl, remembering that the girl didn't seem to demonic whatsoever. "Are you sure Gideon, I mean, she looks pretty harmless. How can you tell these things anyway? I feel a presence, but not a vicious one... more of that type of emotion is coming from you."

Kyo Scopes startled by such an array of fascinating technology, Kyo was taken aback. "Well, it's unfortunate. You appear to be bound to servitude... why is that so? No matter what, I'd never give up any of my freedom. Still ,it is your choice. I suppose we're all fighting our own demons, really."

Kyo Scopes reflects on something personal after hearing the words of Gideon. "Yeah... I suppose, family's important... I'm not sure I'd be qualified to say." Realised he had lowered his guard, Kyo snapped back to attention. "Uh, yeah. Fighting demons right! Where?"

Kyo Scopes raised his shoulders and shook his head. "More harmless girls, do we have to? I'm a gentleman, after all."

Kyo Scopes grabbed at his waist, latching on to his katana's hilt, Kyo was ready to make a move, but was somewhat reluctant to strike, as Cloud's words brought up a moral dilemna. Kyo felt the obligation to help Gideon, but questioned whether he would do more harm than good. Releasing his blade, Kyo said "This is too much. Besides, I'm late for a meeting. Be careful Gideon: the easiest actions are influenced by another's decision." Kyo then ran out of the bar, moving with haste, as to avoid any more small arme fire.

Kyo Scopes walked into the bar, with a map under his arm, which he proceeded to spread upon a table and study meticulously.

Kyo Scopes flinched as he realised someone was staring at him. He turned to see Star, which suprised him, as he remembered the demon-fighting antics of an hour ago. "Oh hello there. Sorry 'bout earlier."

# Gambit's Bar, 2010-03-09 03:34:19, as written by HasbeenKOed
Kyo Scopes smile. "Your mother? I suppose you're still a kid, really. Well, in the end I couldn't hurt anyone as harmless as you..." Realising that he had got distracted from the matter in hand, he turned back to his map. "Besides, I had a meeting to attend, so I could get this."

Kyo Scopes seperated his gaze from his coveted map for a moment. Resulting in eye contact with the young, white-eyed boy, with the physical appearence of a hardened soldier. Noticing that, like himself, this man had suffered pain which belies his age. Sensing an empathy with him he stepped towards him and asked, "Are you okay? You look... distant."

Kyo Scopes was distracted by the lady's voice. He turned to see her in a rocking chair. Her introspective look into her surroundings, and the need to voice them, piqued Kyo's curiousity. "Um, excuse me, who exactly are you? You've been muttering things since I came in here, and I was curious as to why."

# Gambit's Bar, 2010-03-09 04:08:51, as written by HasbeenKOed
Kyo Scopes took a moment to consider the weight of her words. The blue haired youth understood this element of communication. SHis profession of sorts meant he practised listening profusely, and conversation was an art that he was well versed in. "You have a point I suppose. But you're not very direct. You appear to be speaking to everyone or no-one. It's alittle startling, if nothing else. But I admire it."

# Gambit's Bar, 2010-03-09 04:19:55, as written by HasbeenKOed
Kyo Scopes was taken aback by this revelation. "...I am suprised... this is something that exists in ny past, not my present. My actions will dictate who I am - not the past which was forced upon me. But I must ask, what are you? Are you psychic too? And, why, why just inspect me, when you have an ability that you could use to ascend to, well, anything?"

# Gambit's Bar, 2010-03-09 04:31:23, as written by HasbeenKOed
Kyo Scopes stood back, realising this was beyond his grasp. "I guess, what you speak of is beyond mine, and anyone else's, understanding. But do you choose who to watch? Do you watch everyone? Whichever, I can't help but feel a little less secure in my intimacies from now on.
