Skills: -Skilled Dual-Wielder: Kyros is savvy and attuned to his go-to primary weapon choice. Although his two-sword style in unconventional and mostly self-made, Kyros can compensate for a lack of a shield with the ability for sword play from both hands at once.
-Competent Ranger: Kyros can hurl his boomerang with reliability in winds, in motion and even against moving targets.
-Expert Espionage: Growing up alone in the Desert force Kyros to be good at taking what he needed as it would never be given or gifted to him. In addition, he became good and concealing his identity, tracking, gathering information or rumours. He has a knack for setting and spotting traps.
-Skilled Vihuelist : Kyros is pretty savvy around a guitar, especially vihuelas. He will probably never play specifically for other people, but it's clear that he could make a decent living as a travelling bard in another lifetime.
-Parkour: Kyros nimbleness comes from his seemingly erratic movements and ability to bend and move his body on unusual pivots and in unusual manners.
Flaws:
-Self Centred: Kyros has never been given a good enough reason to commit to anyone but himself and because of that, he will put self-preservation before anything else.
-Distrusting: Kyros is quick to presume that everyone else in the world is out to get him and has a tendency to predict negative actions from other people by inciting his own first.
-Incomplete Fighting Style: While unorthodox, Kyros's fighting style is limited by it's lack of development, which traditional fighting styles use to wean out weaknesses and flaws.
-Short Tempered: Kyros refuses to let things go. It doesn't take much to incite a reaction from Kyros and he makes an effort to give more than he gets. To him, it makes him look weak if he doesn't react and stand his ground at all times.
Bio: Kyros's story began the day that an assassination attempt was made on the Queen of Hyrule. One of the Gerudo assassins, gravely injured, escaped capture as the scheme had clearly been counteracted. She made it out into the fields of Hyrule where in her seemingly dying moments she came across a mysterious travelling salesman. The salesman, having no apparent reaction to her wellbeing, offered to sell her anything she might desire. The woman, believing the man to be mocking her as she was about die, replied with the word "satisfaction, by my own hand, or the blood of my kinswomen, even if it kills me". The woman awoke, in a hideout at an uninhabited part of the Hyrule fields. The hideout was barren, but the assassin noticed that her wounds had been tended to, but she always had a baby bump and almost instantly went into labour. Being alone and confused, the assassin gave birth in great pain and distress. When she gave her final push and birthed her child, she took a glance at the baby and caught the freight of her life when she realised it was a boy.
As she lay in terror, blood and tears, the owner of the hideout entered abruptly, hearing the squeals of the newborn. He had no idea who the woman was, but happened to appear in time to hear her whisper "Kyros-Ganon" delusionally while drifting out of consciousness and dying. The owner of the hideout, a bandit and thief took the boy and disposed of the assassin's body, looking to make use of him. Not realising the importance of a boy in gerudo lineage, the bandit raised the boy, giving him the name Kyros, chalking the "ganon" suffix to the woman's insanity. The bandit raised the boy to be an outcast, limiting the likes of affection and love for loyalty and obedience. His ways were harsh and unrelenting, using punishments and abuse to keep Kyros in line. Kyros learned to hate the closest thing he had to a father figure and when he was twelve, Lay in bed whispering to himself begging to any god or other being that would listen to him for this to end. A man appeared to Kyros and the youngster couldn't tell if he was dreaming or not. The man explained that he was a salesman and said he could offer Kyros anything he wanted. Kyros wanted to know who he was. The salesman then sat down and informed Kryos of a story regarding meeting a wounded Gerudo female on th day an attempt was made by the gerudo on the Queen's life up to the birth of a child stolen by a bandit. The salesman went into impossible depth, such as explaining that her last words were Kyros-Ganon and the lineage of Gerudo men within the tribe. The way the mysterious salesman told the story suggested that woman was taken advantage of by the bandit leading to her pregnancy and eventually killed her when he took the child.
Kyros recognised that the man was speaking of him as the baby and realised that he was the Gerudo boy in question. Feeling confusing and uncharted emotions, Kryos became mad and rampant and murdered the bandit he believed to be his father. Kyros disappeared into the desert searching for truth, closure or a sense of belonging, but only found rejection, stigma and hatred even from what should have been the remnants of his own people. Hearing about the call for warriors, Kyros is enticed by the opportunity for diplomatic immunity and the opportunity to be a royal citizen of her majesty's high council, caring little for the task at hand, Kyros enrolls in Zelda's request as a mercenary looking for his rewards.
