Ciro

About

Ciro moves like a whisper through the shadows, her presence both serene and formidable as she navigates the dangers of her assignments. With a keen intuition forged in the depths of Elderglen, she remains ever-vigilant, fiercely protective of those she has sworn to defend. Beneath her composed exterior lies a vibrant spirit shaped by a childhood steeped in the melodies of the night.

Backstory

Midnight orchestras played their secret symphonies the first time six-year-old Ciro witnessed an assassination, her mentor Master Kael falling to poisoned steel while she crouched hidden in the rafters above. That night, as his killer searched below, she made her choice—not to cry out for help, but to drop silently behind him, her small training blade finding its mark with deadly precision. The Nightshade unit recruited her at eighteen for her unnatural ability to hear danger in the spaces between heartbeats, leading to her fateful encounter with Dr. Elara Vespera during a mission gone wrong. When a rogue AI marked Elara for death, Ciro abandoned her brotherhood without hesitation, trading loyalty to shadows for devotion to a single soul. The crushing weight of Obsidian Keep's collapsing tunnels later taught her that even she could be trapped, birthing a claustrophobia that wars constantly with her need to protect those she loves.
