Fiachna Unofficial wife of four years and the father of his child

Kanimir His and Fiachna’s son.
Appearance:

Tall and broad, Kyto strikes an imposing figure. He has a hard face, seeming perpetually set in a displeased scowl, and pale green eyes are cold and harsh. His hair, a dark brown streaked with the odd strand of silver, is long enough to touch his shoulders, though front portion is almost always tied back in a half-ponytail. A full beard hides the lines of his jaw, grown out into two thin braids on each side of his chin and fastened with thin, silver clasps. A wide array of scars decorate his pale skin, but perhaps the most impressive is the arcing gash hidden beneath his armour, a mark that reaches across his back from left hip to right shoulder in constant evidence of the near-death he survived.
Personality:
While once a charming young man, dedicated to his country and determined to fulfil the paths laid out for him by his family, Kyto has been jaded and chilled over the years of his life. While still a firm believer in the Connlaothian way, he is now very much a man for himself and little else.

Bitter and tired, he comes across as entirely disinterested upon first meeting. That would be mostly true, though he might eventually warm up to someone were they persistent enough. Kyto is mostly stuck in the past, angry and vengeful towards those who wronged him, and he is so focused on that anger that he often forgets the wonder of the world around him. While there may still be some vestige of a good man in him, the loyal, charming soldier is long buried, and it doesn’t take much to make him lash out in rage and frustration. Short tempered and irritable, he makes a fairly poorly travelling companion, and as such, leads a mostly lonely life, a fact that only adds to his stellar personality.

Living mostly on the road and earning a living as he goes, Kyto cares little for the plight of the common people, responding only to calls of aid that promise payment and, on the rear occasion he feels altruistic enough to help out without the offer beforehand, he makes sure to get what he’s owed after the fact, one way or another, be it in gold, or something he deems of equal value.

Abilities;
A talented swordsman, Kyto carries a broadsword that, once upon a time, ran in the Aryan family line. It’s name is decidedly tainted, now, used as little more than a tool, rather than the treasure and honour it once was. Still, he keeps it in good condition, preferring to look after what he has than have to deal with the bother of finding a replacement.
Background: 
8D

* Born the second eldest child of the Aryan family. Had careful plans laid out for his life and did his best to follow them. This included joining the army and fulfilling an arranged marriage by the time he was old enough.
* Met Fiachna during his time as a soldier. Inevitable fell in love with the Chaos angel and, at her urging, broke off the arranged engagement and eloped with her, scattering the family plans to dust. Eventually the two of them ‘settled’ in La’Marri, where soon after Kanimir was born.
* All seemed well for a time, Kyto was happy and his son was a healthy, bouncing bundle of trouble. It didn’t last, though, and as if sensing the trouble on the rise (a very likely prospect) Fiachna up and abandoned him only a few short months before Kanimir’s powers began to manifest. Realising he had been fooled, by what he came to consider a witch, about the same time Kanimir’s horns grew in, Kyto realised his son was a creature of magic and, that atop his heartbreak at Fiachna’s disappearance and betrayal, something in him broke.
* Tried to raise Kanimir in his own jagged way, unable to cope with the fact his child was a creature of magic and trying his very best to beat it out of him, sometimes literally. Swung between bouts of fury regarding what Kanimir was and periods of trying to patch things over, during which he taught his son to fight with weapons and his hands, rather than the curse in his blood.
* Eventually, during a hunting outing from La’Marri with Kanimir and a few others, Kyto was wounded by travelling bandits when he got in the way of their attack on a small village, earning his jagged scar across his back. Believing his father deceased, Kanimir unleashed his magic on the bandits, slaughtering both them and the entire village, before fleeing. Heavily wounded and alone, Kyto managed to drag himself back to the woods, where he was found by the rest of the hunting party inches from death’s door. They were able to save his life, but what little warmth had been left in him had died at the sight of what his son had done, the way he fled without a backwards glance, and only shortly after his recovery, Kyto left La’Marri for good.
* Since then, he has travelled the world, working for coin and little else. The irony of how alike to the bandits and thieves he once fought against he has become has not occurred to him, for bitter anger and vitriol are a powerful shield. He wonders what happened to his son, sometimes, or if Fiachna is still alive. For both, his reasoning is vengeance, the desire to make right the wrongs done by him, and when he heard word of the ‘Chaos Assassin’ flitting between Connloath and Serendipity, he knew exactly who they spoke of. He hasn’t yet had a chance to ‘catch up’ with his son, but the day draws ever closer.
