Status Alive
Cyrus is a relatively young Nephilim and is the firstborn son of Lucifer and Mira, making him the Crown Prince of Hell. He currently resides in the Royal Palace at the center, and has his own apartment.
Early Life
Until he reached the age of 9, his family raised him in secret, keeping from him their royal duties and power; it wasn't until he started looking about and getting into trouble that his mother and father agreed to finally tell him of how important he and his family were. For the next few years, he grew rather discontent with hiding away and at the age of 12 Empress Mira finally agreed to allow him to attend a school- on the condition that he do it without revealing he was a prince and- at the time- the only son of the Emperor and Empress. Their reasoning, of which he was rather annoyed at, was that they wanted him to experience a 'normal' life while he could.
Cyrus successfully managed to get to graduation (age 16) while... mostly keeping it all secret, he may have told one or two close friends along the way. On the day of graduation, his mother and father announced privately to him that they would be finally holding his coronation and claiming him- bringing with it all the titles, power and duties of officially being a prince.
Soon after he reached 12 he was rather surprised to find out that he now had a younger brother, Oriel. The two of them got along extremely well- them both taking turns to mess around and making life rather difficult for those around them. Though they were similar, Cyrus was always the much more careful one, preferring more to plan ahead than rush in.
Abilities
Demon Form
Cyrus has a secondary demon form. In appearance, it takes closely after the wild beasts that wander the uninhabited wastelands, though his is much larger in size. When he summons it, it forms around him first as ribbons and blobs of Celestial light and the form is refined by the black shadow. His physical body remains in roughly the chest area.
This form can be damaged, any injuries will appear accentuated by white light until it heals. The only way known to stop it is for either Cyrus to forcefully dissipate it, to wait it out until he tires or for some outside force to try to directly attack Cyrus.
He cannot directly control it, as far as he knows, and if he summons it it essentially has a mind of its own and works on its own accord. It works as a wild animal and its main goal is to protect Cyrus, and it'll do it though any means necessary. It can't tell friendly people from those who would harm them so it tends to attack anything that moves and might pose any threat.
Travelling
Because he is part Celestial, he is able to easily and almost instantly travel anywhere within whatever plane he's currently in, and with slightly more difficulty between planes (unless he holds the key, at which point it becomes trivial). He is able to bring anyone with him, within reason (he couldn't transport a dozen people).

Small description here
As of currently, Cyrus is very hard working and dedicated to his job as prince. He tries to rarely take breaks between small jobs and assignments and is always trying to be busy. He feels like he needs to be the best he can be in order to make up for past mistakes and to be respected. This overworking often causes him anxiety and his brother Oriel usually has to jump in to distract him whenever he tries taking on too much and needs a break.
When he was younger, he used to be very carefree and openly curious, enjoying playing about and causing trouble wherever he went, much like Oriel. Underneath the personality he puts out, he's still like this and this side of him often slips out whenever his younger brother has a say in things.
He's a little clumsy and uncoordinated, so he rarely directly participates in balls and parties, though he regularly attends them (partly out of obligation). But he does excel in organizing things and is a confident speaker if he has appropriate time to prepare. Otherwise, he tends to be rather quiet and more content to just listen.
Preferences
Likes
- Gardening and taking care of plants, it's one of the few things these days he does to relax.
- Well-tailored outfits and simple but fancy suits and vests.
- He enjoys making public appearances, and writing and delivering speeches. He's rather skilled at this.
- The dark. His eyes, since they're very cat like, are sensitive to light and thus he prefers darker environments.
Dislikes
- Mess and clutter.
- Being late to things.
- Sudden and loud noises, his ears are very sensitive to noise.
Trivia
- He has a scar on his chest and a matching one on his back. It's a very painful reminder, and he hates when people try to bring it up and will try to change the subject.
- He keeps a key on a chain hidden around his neck. This key doesn't unlock any physical door- it's used for easier access between Hell and Earth and has some magical properties. Without it, he could still travel but it would be much more difficult.
- His 'wings' are a side effect of Lucifer's meddling, they're not true wings, like a Celestial might have, though they work much the same. He can make them appear and disappear at will, and even change their consistency to closer to smoke or vapor.
- He prefers wearing these kinds of outfits, and likes including some yellow if it suits: https://pin.it/2SXUnkm (Note: Please feel free to draw him in different outfits, as long as they fit the general vibe)
Relationships
text, text
Cyrus' current romantic partner. They haven't really been daing for very long but still they try to hang around each other as much as possible. Adam is far more experienced in relationships than Cyrus (who probably hasn't been with anyone seriously for at least 25 years) and tends to take the lead on most things.
The two of them first met before Adam was even discovered to be the first heir to a Great Duke and worked in the palace library as an assistant.
Text, text
His younger brother. The two of them don't nearly spend as much quality time together as they used to but they're still close. They do still sometimes have arguments but they usually quickly make up for it.
Oriel alternates between trying to annoy Cyrus and looking out for him/ generally trying to be helpful. He's made attempts to try to teach Cyrus sword fighting but it hasn't been very successful.
Character, text
Cyrus doesn't approve of Zander and his 'job' in the slightest, and Zander doesn't like Cyrus right back. If he had the chance, he'd probably have Zander locked away. The only thing standing between them is Adam, who is the one thing they can both agree should be kept safe.
Zander says that he won't harm Cyrus, but Cyrus doesn't entirely believe that with the rather hostile looks he keeps getting from him.
