Name: Cyril Szabo
Age: 18
Sex: Male
Sexual/Romantic Preference: Homosexual
Diagnosis: Cannibalism, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (more obsessive than compulsive)
Circumstance of Break: Found by police to be consuming the dug-up corpse of a recently deceased man who had been buried a day prior, and while in custody was constantly searching for coins and threatening to harm the children of the officers. Cyril didn't come to until the morning after the incident.
Supernatural Identity: Ghoul
(Arabic culture; a type of shapeshifting demon, known for collecting coins, terrorizing children, and consuming the dead)Stay Length: 3 months (Subject to change)
Likes/Dislikes: Likes hot/dry weather, shiny tokens such as coins or medallions, graveyards and such things associated with death. As well, he likes carnivorous foods such as steak, fish, etc, and will rarely eat any type of vegetable or fruit. Also likes learning about the human body. He dislikes being around multiple people for too long, when people touch his belongings without permission (though he's likely to refuse permission regardless of who it is). Also dislikes wet weather and large, open spaces. He likes to feel secluded.
Hobbies: Collects coins and other such tokens, and has a rather vast array of coins, which he organizes meticulously and never lets anyone do anything more than look at them. He studies human anatomy when he's not searching for coins, and will sometimes draw Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man on spare pieces of paper laying around. He used to enjoy hunting, but since he's at Lyle's, he obviously can't do that.
Personality: Generally a fairly sweet guy, Cyril is only limited by the stigma of what he was institutionalized for, and by his odd obsessions (coins, meat, human anatomy). He insists he's not cannibalistic, that he just had a mental lapse, and that he's not insane. As he'd say,
"Collecting coins is a normal hobby, right?". He finds comfort in the familiarity of his collection, which is his reasoning behind his desperate searching for coins at the police station when the incident happened. Cyril tries to rationalize things, and likes to get straight to the point. He's convinced he doesn't have any real problems.
Biography: Given up at a mere age of 1 year, Cyril never knew and never cared to learn who his parents were. He was adopted, and his life as an orphan ended as quick as it had begun. His adoptive parents, who he always recognized as his real ones, lived out in the woods, just outside of a small town. His father was a hunter, and during deer season, they'd eat the meat and lots of it. Cyril was very fond of eating said meat, and even went out hunting with his father once he was old enough to withstand the kick of a rifle to his shoulder. He enjoys his meat cooked rare; any more than that and he doesn't enjoy it.
He always had a knack for finding loose change around the house, and even took a metal detector out into the forest where he lived in search of more. His parents thought nothing of it, since coin collection is a common hobby. When he turned 16, Cyril got a job as a waiter, and kept every single bit of change he got. To this day, he has over $400 in coins alone, not counting the value of old, outdated currency he's stumbled upon and kept in his collection.
He lived a relatively normal life, working a part time job, collecting coins, and eating local wildlife he and his father hunted. In school he excelled in his Biology and Anatomy classes, having a peculiar interest in the human body. It was, however, when his mother decided to take his collected money to the bank and deposit it into his bank account for him that set him off. She'd touched his belongings without his permission, and that screwed with his deepest obsession. In hysterics when he came home to find his entire collection of coins, aside from the ones no longer in circulation, gone, Cyril ran out of the house into the forests. He describes what happened as blacking out after being really pissed off. He doesn't remember anything aside from going into his room after his mother had taken his coins away. He was told he'd cannibalized a dead body, but refuses to believe he actually ate any of it, despite having been shown pictures of the body.
He was taken to Lyle's House shortly after the incident, and has thus far just been trying to prove he's not a cannibal, despite what his diagnosis is.
