Written Description
His complexion is extremely pale, so much so that it often makes him stand out from those around him. The ghostly complexion complements his mako infused eyes, giving him an almost otherworldly appearance.
He has a deceptively slight build, his black clothing hiding a muscled physique beneath. The torso hugging top he wears is covered by a full length cloak that stops just above the heel of his foot. A black hat finishes his attire, blending in with the rest of his gear.
Hidden behind his lips are a set of elongated canine teeth, a side effect of being imbued with the DNA of Anima. From his lips comes a voice that is both intelligent and menacing, a bass note that is filled with authority.
Personality
Caius is a determined character, entirely focussed on his mission from planning until completion. This determination is what got him to 1st Class, making him stand out from the others at his earlier grades. Outside of operations he takes in the world around him, exploring and learning all he can. He seeks to expand his horizons and knowledge in whatever way he can.
He is a merciful individual and that is what endears him to his fans. He always provides his enemies with an out before he begins. Those who accept are allowed to walk free, those who don't...die. He would prefer the worlds problems be solved through diplomacy but is not so naive to think that's possible. His long term goal is peace in the world and he realises that his skills must be used to make that a reality.
Background
He was born and raised in the slums of Midgar by his mother, never knowing his father. His mother worked in the Honey Bee Inn as one of the "main attractions", but it wasn't until he grew older that Caius understood the sacrifice his mother made to try and provide for him. Mountains of books and enough food to keep him healthy, Caius' youth was filled with reading the history of the world.
During his teenage years his mother fell ill, eventually succumbing to her illness six months later. The time that followed was hard for Caius, she was his world and now he was alone. He wandered the slums for a few days before he came across the train station. A uniformed Shinra soldier stood on the platform proclaiming wealth, fame and the chance to make a real difference awaited aboard the train. Caius boarded the train to his future as a Shinra soldier.
He spent a while moving around on placements at different locations, seeing some moderate action that caught the eye of his superiors. He was accepted into the SOLDIER program at 3rd Class. After several months of assisting in the guarding of a Mako reactor, he was ordered to return to Midgar. He was tasked with helping the Shinra troops quell growing animosity in the slums through regular patrols.
During a routine patrol through the Sector 8 slums. Caius and his patrol partner were ambushed by a terrorist environmentalist group, His partner was immediately incapcitated by a bullet to the back. Caius grabbed the man by the collar and began to return fire indiscriminately. The untrained attackers all ducking for cover, giving Sully the chance to get to cover himself. He quickly called for back up but was told the nearest support was thirty minutes away, the majority of the nearby Shinra troops dealing with a riot. What occurred next was soon going to be a key propaganda tool for the Shinra.
It took twenty three minutes to complete the systematic defeat of seventeen terrorists, the capturing of their leader and the saving of his injured partner. What impressed Shinra was the testimony of Caius' partner. His battlefield tactics, awareness and clinical precision outshone what most SOLDIERs had achieved in extensive careers. The fact he saved his partner would have impressed enough, but the capturing of a terrorist leader who could be paraded and shamed in public made the decision easy. He was awarded the highest honour, the rank of SOLDIER 1st Class.
For the couple of months that followed Caius was the face of the SOLDIER program, his fan club numbers swelled as his face and dramatic recreations were shown everywhere. As with most SOLDIERs though, he soon dropped from the limelight as the next big hero came along. He was not disappointed, the glitz and glamour had grown tiresome and was not something he wished to be part of. He was appreciative of his fans and would take the time to reply to letters and such, but he felt like Shinra put too much emphasis on public displays rather than working to resolve key issues.
With the parading and public appearances done with, Caius was finally allowed to continue with his new role as SOLDIER 1st Class. He excelled in the freedom he was given, successfully completing each mission that came his way during the years that followed. During this time his follows began to refer to him as Caius Sully - The Merciful. Reports would often come in that he spared large numbers of enemies during conflicts, much to the delight of Shinra who could obtain valuable intel. Shinra, his fans and enemies alike knew that his offer of mercy was a one chance option. Those that didn't take it were dealt with, with ruthless efficiency.
As time has moved on the increased freedom provided by his rank has meant that his inquisitive mind has exposed some cracks in his loyalty to Shinra. Visiting every corner of the world, speaking to many different people, he saw just how the company affected everyone. He still works for Shinra but ultimately see's it as his best chance to help move the world forward.

Limit Break
Blade of Blood: Caius plants his sword into the ground in front of him before clasping his hands together in front of his chest. Loose debris around him begins to elevate as a black aura begins to envelope the blade of his sword. Caius reaches out grabbing the sword, the aura then covering his body. No light penetrates the aura other than the a pair of red eyes from where's Caius' would be. A red cone of light emanates from his eyes until he finds his target. Once he has found it, he removes the sword from the ground as an otherworldly roar emanates from the heavens. Then in a blink he charges forward attacking his target. The aura lasts for ten rapid strikes before dissipating. The initial strike has a 50% chance to inflict de-barrier and de-spell.
