Introduction

Corin was a police officer in the Nuo PD under Acuzio Costello-Holly. Unknown events caused him to be placed inside a simulation with his twin sister and their friends. Following the group's escape they were taken to the flying Catacomb fortress where they found out they were in a different reality from their own. Corin is currently awaiting word from Jamie Curio to join up with their newest companion and find a way to get star-bound.

Appearance

Corin is of slightly shorter than average height, but has a normal build and weight for a human male. His background comes from the equivalent of French and Egyptian races from his parents respective areas. His hair is an unusual silver color grown in an unkempt slightly long style, while his eyes are a deep green set to an ever bored stare. He has slightly darker skin than his twin.

Corin's style leans towards the more formal, consisting of jackets, button down shirts, and slacks when he's not in uniform.

Personality

Corin is the best example of "calm, cool, and collected". It is rare to see him give more than an bored, almost blank, look to someone. That's not to say he is completely void of emotions, smiling and laughing when it suits him. He was taught etiquette at a young age and tries to put it to use. He's generally the one to talk for the twins if manners are needed.

His hobbies center more around mental stimulation rather than physical, enjoying cartography, reading, and playing the piano. Finding them soothing ways to focus his mind. On the more physical side, wrestling and weapons practice occupy him, but is much more careful when he engages in them.

Despite a seemingly careless attitude to life, Corin is a proud and prideful person. Disparaging remarks about him he will tolerate, but will not stand for the same for his family. He has fought people for remarks regarding his sister and mother, having sent people to the hospital in extreme cases.

Corin tends to isolate himself when given the chance, not enjoying crowds or even his friends and family at times. This self imposed isolation stems from fear of himself and what he is capable of when he gets out of control. He uses these times to meditate or otherwise practice his self control.

He has a rather one track mind when it comes to his work, using his reputation to intimidate criminals, not having to do more than suggest violence. He'll do anything to make sure people are safe, even if it does mean he gets hurt. He prefers to work alone, given the possible fallout when he is injured.

Relationships

Family

Bryl Tart

Former officer and Agent of Outside. "Father". Corin has a good relationship with Bryl and comes to him for advice when he needs it. He feels he can rely on Bryl and looks towards him as a role model. He tried to help Corin learn how to keep himself calm, having only minor luck with it. It's thanks to him that Corin has an extensive vocabulary, being one of the 'games' they had the twins were younger. He secretly wishes to have something like Bryl and Dacquoise do someday.

Anubis Tart

Bryl's "other half". The Anubis, Avatar of Death. Certified surgeon. "Dad". Corin finds Anubis' tendency to joke around and not take things seriously frustrating at times. Their relationship didn't suffer for it, Anubis still able to advise Corin, even if he didn't seem to know what to say to or treat a child at the time.

Dacquoise Tart

Baker, Agent of Outside, Queen of Light, The Mother. Corin always knew that no matter what he did, Dacquoise would be there for him. She would use her restorative magic to heal the twins if they got seriously hurt, something that happened from time to time. It was after trying to defend her as a child that Corin's berserk condition came to light. She made sure Corin and his sister knew how to cook and take care of themselves if they were hurt. It was her idea to train the twins separately in magic and weapons.

Charles Tart

Former Merchant, Cateau Royal guard, Luma's errand boy and secretary. Brother of Dacquoise. He would often babysit the twins when they were children. Corin always thought he was a bit of a jerk. Never quite understanding the fights that his mother and Charlie would have on occasion, only that it always ended with his mother exceedingly upset.

Lumine Tart

Dryad, former control network of the catacombs. Corin adores his older sister, visiting the Grove where she lives. They would play and have fun using Lumine's control over plants, often swiping vegetalbes and fruits from the beds. He found her a bit flighty but still good hearted.

Estelle Tart

Twin sister. Pain in the butt. She always did the talking for the two of them when they were younger. She tried to protect him in her own way, but usually ended up picking on him. They'd wrestle and generally horse around until they'd pass out or Corin "played too rough", Ellie having to get an adult when that happened. He loves her, to be sure, despite all the harassment she puts him through. He thinks she just has too big of a personality for him. She's the reason he likes personal space, not standing to be away from him for extended periods.

Comrades

Afton Grant

Has yet to meet him.

Friends

Katilline Luminous Entane

He doesn't know what to make of Kat at times, sometimes enjoying her randomness and sometimes wanting to silence her with her own tail. He's impressed by her skills in computers and how much sheer dexterity she possesses. Sometimes he gets the urge to sit and stroke her tail.

Lily Costello-Holly

He finds an enjoyable reading partner in Lily. He knows he can sit with her, not say a word, and still enjoy each other's company. He does treat her with a little bit more respect than he might with other girls, being his boss' daughter, no less respect that he shows Kat. But she is still his friend, his boss aside.

Love Interests

None

Unless you count crushes. He'd never tell though.

Enemies

The Brotherhood

They wanted to destroy all life. Corin likes living. They are at odds in that case.
