Description Sylvan - [link] | [link]
Student Application for for
I can't believe I got in! There were... well... HUNDREDS of applicants * 3*;; Really excited to start! Congrats to everyone else who made it!
I only discovered Halloween Academy around 4 hours ago, and the deadline is any time now, so I had to be super fast!!!
Going straight to bed after this * 3*

I don't know if it's because I'm tired, but he looks nothing like I thought he would o Ao I still like him though~ he seems to have a sort of Arabian feel to him now. Hahahaa

I doubt I'll get in due to the sheer amount of applicants, but I thought it might be fun to try. Either way, I like Sylvan so I'll find something else to use him for if he doesn't get in. xD

Also, I SO SO WANT TO BE IN THANAEL'S CLASS ♥

------------------------------------------
I'm an Artist, although I enjoy writing.

My application::

Name: Sylvan (Fauns are known not to have last names)
Age: 21
Height: 180cm (5'9") Weight: 71kg (156lbs) (I looked it up, and apparently Fauns are really skinny hahaha)
Eyes: Sylvan has light amber eyes, that are almost golden in colour. They are very adept at seeing in the dark, as fauns do not keep well to a daily schedule and have good night vision.
Hair: His hair and fur are both dark black, though unusually they have a purple sheen to them. This makes camouflage in nature more difficult for him, but easier for him at night.

Talents:
Sylvan shares many of his talents with his kind, things like an understanding with nature and spirits (including being able to manipulate plants to an extent), navigational skills, and talent as a windpipe minstrel to name a few.
(Impulsiveness, self-indulgence, a knack for communication and a love for wine and dancing, to name some others)
These traits aren't as prominent in Sylvan as they are in most fauns. Sylvan always had a slightly different approach to those around him in that his interest in things was much more singular.
Fauns, you see, tend to think of nature and themselves as a whole, and get along with it in such a manner. Sylvan didn't only singulate each type of plant creature in the woods, but he would even take them apart to learn more of the sections within.
Sylvan's fascination gave him some abilities that a faun generally does not attain, a broader knowledge of healing and poisons as well as strength and speed higher than the average faun (as a result of catching beasts).
The penalty for these skills is, as aforementioned, Sylvan has lost some of his natural gifts. Some of the nature spirits do not approve of his ways, and when he summons them they may lie to or go against him.

Why is Sylvan different to the other fauns? Both in nature, and the colour of his fur?
Well, it's not for certain, but I hear some of the fauns believe he is a demon. They say if he is faun at all, then he is more Satyr than one of their own.

Weaponry/Fighting:
Sylvan is not a bad fighter, but he simply does not care for it and will not easily join one. Once in battle though, Sylvan fights fiercly and passionately, avoiding the strikes from his enemy and singing as he rhythmically swipes in return.
He uses a small dagger, the same one he uses in day to day life, which he keeps on his pouch along with his serums and charms.

Personality:
Sylvan, like any faun, is always on the lookout for fun. He will welcome the company of anyone willing, regardless of their species or gender or any stereotype you may think of. This is not because he looks past these things, but simply because he does not comprehend judgement, and holds no value in such a thing.
Sylvan is filled with natural curiosity, and will not hold back when he sees something he does not understand the integral whole of.
Along with these traits, that you may call ignorance, but may call inquisitive or knowledgeable, Sylvan is one to laugh or smile at all times.

Including those that may not be amusing to most. //sneer
Most dominant of all is Sylvans belief in himself, if you can manage to get Sylvan to place you before him, then I applaud you.

Sylvans relations to others:
(At this point in time the only known characters are the teachers, whom I do not yet know well, so this will be brief)
Thanael van Augustine, the Bioligy Teacher of HA, is someone that Sylvan has struggled to communicate with, yet holds a deep respect for.
Sylvan is eager to learn more about his personal passion from someone knowledgable in the subject, as until now, he has not known anyone willing to breach the topic. At the same time, Thanael is someone that Sylvan envies in his selfish manner, believing that someone should not know more than him.
Siren, the Music Teacher of HA, is an alluring person that Sylvan grew a soft spot for upon his arrival at the academy. Her sensuous voice compels him to stay with his roots in nature and he does not hold back when playing his wind instruments in class, which he plays with the magical, natural way that the fauns are reknowned for. He, of course, is also quite fond of her playful personality. ;DD

Clothing preferance:
Fauns don't tend to wear much, so Sylven doesn't have much to cover himself, but he loves to adorn himself in accessories and parts of things that he discovers. He's a bit of a pack rat, but for the most part only when it comes to things he's curious about or wants to learn more of.
The one thing he never takes off is his belt, containing compartments for his potions and serums (and maybe some wine, just don't tell the teachers), a sheath for his dagger, and a pouch for his necessities. The belt is also adorned in trinkets and accessories.

Likes:
• Nature
• Dancing
• Singing
• Companionship
• Biology
• Trinkets
• The colour of rust.

Dislikes:
• Hostilty
• Being asked too many questions
• Staying still
• Wearing clothes over his fur
