The Mask
Name: Janus Arctus Tiranus ((not his original name))
Age: 28
Place of birth: Corus, Tortall
Gender: Male
Home: Corus, the Royal Palace.
Position: Valet.
Cannon or original: Cannon
Face claim: Ed Speleers
Appearance: Janus is tall, well built, and extremely agile. He uses certain exercises and stretches in the morning to keep himself strong and flexible, and has learned hand-to-hand combat. He keeps himself in top shape, for he will have some great opponents to defeat.
His hair, much to his disappointment, is blond. He was born with blond hair, and there was little he could do about it. He wishes he had darker hair, to fit in the shadows better, but as noted before, there is not much he can do. He keeps it short, and out of his eyes. He doesn’t want his hair to get in the way of his ever watching eyes.
On that note, Janus’s eyes are a deep blue. An intoxicating blue. Quite a few find trust and love in that blue, but in reality, when they are actually thinking, and Janus is alone, they are cold, feeling-less, and empty.
Personality: When you first meet Janus you sense a certain kind of status, it might just be him working his charm on you though. Janus wears a smug face when first meeting people, talking very little until he judges them. Janus has a habit of sneering at people, looking down at them. Trying to intimidate them if you must. Janus pictures himself as the perfect human being. He believes that he has that defining x factor. But that’s another thing about Janus; he is full of himself, vain, arrogant. He talks about himself more than he ought to, a feature he could do without. This would all be true if his father had named him his sole heir, however, he didn’t, and that makes Janus nothing in the Royal world, but everything elsewhere..
Janus likes to bribe and/or blackmail people to get what he wants. If someone wants a favour he wants to know what’s in it for him. After all, What's the point in doing something if you’re not going to get rewarded? Janus isn't one for getting his hands dirty that’s for sure. However, as someone who is trying to get revenge, he can bend his ways a little.
Janus also has a liking of women, spies, and gossip. He knows the entire maid system of the Palace, and uses it to get the latest scoops on everyone in the palace, to make better schemes. He gets women on his side by treating them as if they were the only thing he though about, and then he used them as well. Not good for women, perfect for Janus. He has a lot of friends in the rogue as well, including the queen, though she sees right through his charms, and helps him for the fun of it.
He is determined to bring down the royal family, and their little friends, and he will allow nothing to stand in his way.
History: Janus was born at the palace 28 years ago to Duke Roger and his mother, Ally. Ally was a chambermaid who was taken by Roger and rapped in his rooms. She found out later that she was pregnant, and told the palace that she was leaving with a betrothed to go get married and live the housewife life. She took her child into the outskirts of Corus, and cleaned houses for a living, raising her child with her sister and her family.
Janus led a very simple life, but it was a life where it was in constant scorn from his mother. She died when he was 11, and the last thing she had done was held him close and said: “Revenge, Roger.” He did not realize that she had meant to go make sure his entire known relatives would be put to shame; he thought she meant to go and have his revenge on Roger’s death. And so, he would.
At 16, he left his aunt and uncle and traveled the world, learning of his magic and the ways of the rogue and spy along the way. When he came back at 21, his mind was a working machine of plans and knowledge to bring down the royal family. He inserted himself into the palace by applying for a Valet position (which is not very busy usually, except when there are lots of guests in the house) and made everyone believe that he liked to keep to himself, and loved to know the latest gossip. Little did they know he was doing this to ruin the royal family.
He also made his way into the rogue court, not by doing anything that involved robbery or assassination himself, but by giving out information. Tips on the people who were visiting the palace, and the goodies they had brought with them. The rogues like him, for he always gives out lots of information money free, just as long as sometime, they are willing to do something in turn for him. They all think that he can’t think of something that bad.
He has waited 7 years, bidding his time, and now, his time has come. He has a plan.
