Appearance

On the shorter side for an Elezen man with an athletic build, Cinnieux's ears are just as short as he is--for Elezen standards. However, much is that is harder to notice passed piercing white eyes that stand out from both his complexion and stern features. All this is framed by a mass of curls, most often found tied up in a ponytail. If you look close enough, a braid is visible trailing back into it on the side.

A lifetime of training and his inevitable entry into the Temple Knights has found him rather fit in his stature, a lean athletic figure found under armor and finer clothing.

Information

A dutiful young nobleman hailing from the least of lesser houses, he is one still bustling with pride instilled in him for their service to the City-State. A complicated one of many sides and faces, fit for each aspect of his life. Falling easily into command of those of below him rank, he'd been a responsible part of the unit from the getgo, often entrusted with leadership and tasks no matter his apprehensions.

Yet no matter the pressures he faces, he will face each and every one of them with fortitude and an unwaivering smile for the sake of appearances. One that is usually used to simply come off as more welcoming, softening his harsh features. Though beyond it, he very well may come across as cold or hardened in his stiff poise.

Polite to a fault, he is always open to conversations, no matter how he may actually view the person. Most all would receive that cordial, calm demeanor and composure.

House of Mixed Repute

The Audoin are a lesser house bannered to Durendaire. They are known for their service in the Temple Knights, their place in the Order having first earned them their nobility. Yet with a focus so greatly on knighthood and each generation only being trained for such, the coffers have dwindled. Now, they are even better known for their lacking fortune, found out from years of numerous heirs being sent to their deaths in seeking of glory and protection of Ishgard.

Rumors surround the house, the first starting with the current baroness, having eloped from a viscounty, disowned with her position passed to her sister, choosing love over status. More talk surrounds the murky waters of their eldest sons and youngest daughter.

Most recently, the young knight Ser Cinnieux has been about forming new alliances for his house, both of old martial relations and new ones of more gentile reputations. Perhaps, his audacious ambition has caused talk!

Knight of Pride

The company the young knight servers, their unit, can be found on each tenday serving soups and breads in the Brume to the children and the hungry. Of course, knitwear was passed along with it, many of them sporting moogle-eared caps of a vibrant blue. Cinnieux's duty find him with a swelled pride, each one faced with a straight back and sure shoulders. From guard duty, patrols, to charity work, his particular halberd makes him especially recognizable even when he joins the crowds.

Man of Connections

Since his knighting, Cinnieux has made his return into society. Once seen as the stoic steward of House Mienaire's son--an old family friend--he'd seemed to have taken a break for his knighthood once turning down such a position of stability of favor of his dreams and ambition. He now is close with others of far more notable houses, keeping close company with them despite his much lower standing.

OOC

Hello! Thanks for looking this far! If anything catches your interest, never be afraid to poke me with questions or--even better--offers to RP!

I'm on Crystal/Mateus, with my in-game name being Cinnieux Audoin. I'd love to plot something if that is what you seek.

Themes and Style

While slice of life is always fun, and I will happily join in on shenanigans, I do prefer plot over all else. Exploring mature, and darker themes, Cinnieux's work ever sees him on the bloodier side of the battlefield. Along with his upbringing in the closed off Ishgard, he remains a traditionalist and is one to look down on outsiders, and will touch on themes of such mindsets. While this is something that in no way shape or form reflects my own thinking--A seperation between IC and OOC is a must--I'd hate to have that thrown at anyone unwittingly and turn them off from a scene! Communication is just as important!
