However, this can quite easily come across as cocky and arrogant but Siv doesn't seem to mind or care. He loves to be the center of attention whether it comes to social events or battles and has no problem in striking up a conversation with people the he wants to know or even flirt with them. While he bares no ill-will towards others, he doesn't really care if he annoys people either. To Sivaros, you can't please everybody, so why bother in the first place? In battle, he dives straight into fights which can annoy his superiors but his maverick methods of getting results tends to get him out of trouble. Although, Siv being a distraction has often saved the lives of others. There is always a smirk on Sivaros's face but while his exterior may exude egoism, Sivaros takes every fight seriously. As a prodigal Bladedancer, Siv calculates every sword stroke, every leaping dodge, every careful placement of his footwork. Of course, he would have you believe it all comes easy to him and he quite happily taunts his opponents to coax them into making a mistake. However, he can still get overconfident which can get him into trouble now and again. After all, he is still a young Elf who still has a lot to learn and more to prove. Sivaros is a crafty fighter and likes to present a rogueish charm about himself. Relaxation to him his enjoying the company of others rather than spending time alone. How can you become known as the best swordsman if no one is there to see or hear about it? He likes to be a bit mischievous too. Mostly harmless pranks or innocent trouble, but at worst sometimes he might have to climb out of some angry husband's or wife's window. While he never really displayed a penchant for academic talent, he often employs his street smarts which can help him in his adventures outside of the Sun Kingdom.

However they were killed in the line of duty when he was very young, even for an Elf which left him as an orphan. He wondered the streets for a long time. He spent a lot of time at the army's Training Grounds and he would often watch when he wasn't scrounging for food or coin. It was a good way to pass the time but what he was truly was enamoured by were the Bladedancers. An elite platoon of warriors who were specially trained in the Elven Bladedance martial art. It is a comprehensive fighting style where one uses acrobatics as much as sword manoeuvres and rewards nimble flourishing styles while also incorporating physical strikes using their limbs. It demanded physical and dextrous excellence as well as total mastery of one's weapon which is why so few of them exist. Sivaros spent hours watching, mirroring the movements as best as he could from afar. When he was 10, the Bladedancer's Officer approached him outside, catching the young boy spying. Meikora gave Siv an offer. He found out the boy wanted to become a Bladedancer more than anything so if he housed, fed and clothed Sivora then he would train him to become a Bladedancer. IF he would attend school. There's no way Sivaros said no. And so Siv infact went to school! Although it was a struggle, Sivaros did get through the schooling system. His favourite subject was history, learning about heroic figures from all walks of life. That was when he swore to himself that he would become the greatest swordsman in Avalia. A lofty goal to be sure, one that would get some laughs out of a few students. However, he had a large dislike for the other subjects and would often truant and get into trouble with some friends. Meikora was not impressed and scolded the boy often, and largely it worked but old habits would die hard. His obsession with Bladedancing also meant he didn't pay attention when it came to studying magic. Sivaros enlisted in the military immediately. Physical exertion came a lot easier to him than mental exertion and he did everything he could to fast-track into the Bladedancer's regiment. He even managed to stay out of trouble and Meikora was happy about it. He had a headstart living with the commander of the Bladedancer's so his natural talent was alot higher than most when joining. Sivaros couldn't be happier, and was officially granted the rank of Bladedancer by his father figure after 100 years of training. Sivaros became the youngest Bladedancer ever. Unfortunately, disaster would strike soon after as Meikora was slain while on a mission. As there are so few Bladedancers, they usually do not stay together when deployed. Instead, they are either attached to a single squad or battalion or are used for solo missions at War. Without Meikora, Siv started to return to some of his less than desirable habits. While he would honour his position and ultimately obey orders, he has butted heads a lot of time with military officers as well as getting into trouble while on leave. Despite all this, he has survived and has completed missions. He still has a lot of years left ahead of him and has a long way to go before he can claim the title of 'Greatest Swordsman' but it's not a bad start for an Orphan. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ [color=8dc73f][u]Combat and Magic[/u][/color] [b]Strength:[/b] 6 [b]Speed on Land:[/b] 8 [b]Speed in Air:[/b] 0 [b]Magical Ability:[/b] 3 [b]Dexterity:[/b] 10 [b]Weapon Proficiency:[/b] 9 [b]Stealth:[/b] 7 [b]Subspecies:[/b] [indent]Light Elf[/indent] [/hider] Oh, if anyone can think of a theme song for this guy, that'd be mad helpful!
