𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 ✧ Appearance wise Ezekiel looks very similar to Azriel. He shares his father face structure, his high cheekbones and sharp jawline. He has the same hair color and length, though his is slightly more wavy. His skin tone has the same golden hue and his wings, massive and imposing, have the same span. Standing at 6'3 he is a little taller than Azriel though just as muscular. The thing that really sets Ezekiel apart from his father are his eyes. Though they both have hazel eyes, Ezekiel's are more vibrant, shining with a light that is unlike any other.

𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐩𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 ✧ ectomorph
𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐫 ✧ black
𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 ✧ wavy
𝐞𝐲𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐫 ✧ hazel
𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐫 ✧ tanned
𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ✧ 6'3 feet / 190 cm
𝐰𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ✧ 196 lbs / 89 kg

𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐲𝐥𝐞 ✧ His clothes, similar to his shadows, are dark. Most of the time, whenever he is not in velaris or a place he feels comfortable, he's seen wearing illyrian fighting leather. Although most illyrians wear at most one or two Siphons, Ezekiel wears six. When not in use they are emerald green, once he uses them they start shining more vibrantly. He normally carries two, one on each hand, the others appear when his armor is deployed. He keeps his dagger, Heartseeker, gifted to him by Cassian, sheathed at his thigh and is almost never seen without it.

𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐬 ✧ a healed scar on his lower abdomen where he was hit with an ash arrow and a faint burn scar which reaches from the top of his left shoulder almost all the way down to his left arm. He doesn't like to talk about how he got it.
𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐨𝐨 ( 𝐬 ) ✧ he has several illyrian runes tattooed all over his body.
𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 ✧ none.

𝐝𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐬 ↳ reserved, responsible & protective.
𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐭 ( 𝐬 ) ✧ distrustful, blunt, rude, sarcastic, patient, humble, caring & perfectionistic.

𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 ✧ Ezekiel's personality can be considered quite unique, as many of his qualities defy the definition of his individual traits. Though sensitive, he has excellent analytical abilities; though reserved, he has well-developed people skills and robust social relationships; and though he is generally very patient with others, when it comes to him that isn't really the case, everything needs to be taken care of the exact moment he was handled the task, leaving no room for free time or resting. Ezekiel is often meticulous to the point of perfectionism, and though he procrastinates, he can always be relied on to get the job done. Responsibilities are something he takes personally, consistently going above and beyond, doing everything he can to exceed expectations and delight others, at work and at home. Nevertheless, he has the tendency to underplay his accomplishments. This is because, whenever he looks at his achievements, he focuses on the things he could have done better first. As he is not someone who has the desire to be the center of attention every waking minute, he feels most comfortable standing on the sideline, quietly observing what is going on, utilizing his excellent memory to not only retain data and trivia, but also people, and details about their lives. In fact, Ezekiel is a great listener and more than willing to talk with you about what might trouble you. It is unlikely that he will start talking about his feelings however. He is very private and surprisingly sensitive, internalizing his feelings a great deal. Kiel takes his duties extremely seriously and often steps in front of others to keep them safe, instinctively putting others ahead of himself and taking responsibility for and of others, regardless of whether he finds them agreeable or not. Ezekiel leans towards more cautious and practical decisions, except perhaps when it comes to the well-being of those he loves. Very protective of his family, he tends to assume the most responsibility. Because of this role he has grown into, Ezekiel responds well to having people relying on him and turning to him with problems. While Kiel can be harsh at times, he's also a deeply caring and affectionate person who won't hesitate to reach out to his family and be at their side when they need him. He has a tendency to take responsibility for things and blame himself, especially in regards to people he loves being hurt or upset, even if he had little to do with the situation in the first place. When something is wrong, there's little he wouldn't do to put things right. Especially to people he is not particularly close to he has a habit of being blunt, when he speaks that is, and is extremely unwelcoming of strangers and people he has deemed a threat to his inner circle. He's Sarcastic, with a dry, biting sense of humor, particularly in remarks directed at people he doesn't feel particularly keen of. He makes no effort to hide his ill feelings towards them, showing it in small subtle ways like openly ignoring them or not heeding their opinions. However, beneath the shadows and coldness he likes to portray around strangers, he loves very fiercely and passionately.

𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 ↳
Prebirth - Emeraude and Azriel first met in one of the Illyrian camps by coincidence. She was the war lords daughter, barely seventeen at the time. They didn't talk but Azriel noticed that she was being treated badly. He couldn't say anything because the tensions between her father and him were high to begin with. Angering the warlord more than he already had probably would have done more harm than good. So he left. The next time Azriel visited, was due to reports of the clipping of females still taking place. And indeed when he arrived the warlords daughter Emeraude was pinned in place with her father standing over her with a knife in place. Damning the consequences Azriel killed the men and took her with him to Velaris. Eventually the mating bond clicked and Ezekiel was born a couple years after that.
Childhood - The young boy spend a lot of his time with his mother and father and the inner circle. With Cassian and Nesta he would learn how to fight with weapons. One day he told them he dreamed of becoming a valkyrie like Nesta. It is needless to say that Cassian still teases him about that. Rhys and Feyre would teach him how to read and write, making him write things like "Rhysand is cooler than Cassian" and "I like Feyre more than Mor". The latter would go shopping with him, buying him whatever his little heart desired. Last but not least his mother and father would teach him how to fly, doing so at night because his Azriel always had a lot to do during the day.
Juvenescence - The young boy turned into a young men and would soon want to be involved in politics and statesmanship. He also wanted to know more about the Illyrian camps. Though hesitant, his father allowed him to go to Windhaven. Male children were trained to be warriors since they were eight, and since he was already sixteen at the time he was put in a group with the males his own age. Due to his years of training with Cassian, he beat them easily. Jealousy manifested in the others fairly quickly, leading them to do anything in their power to undermine and weaken him, playing dirty if they had to. Every now and then he would go back to Velaris for a bit, staying there a couple of weeks before returning. Devlon was cautious when it came to punishing Ezekiel, as he was aware that he couldn't overdo it. Yet he had no problems with having him train with Illyrians that had centuries on him. Unlike Cassian, they didn't hold back. He was beat up pretty badly a couple of times, yet he also learned a lot.
Adulthood - Against his family's wishes he decided to partakes in the blood rite to progress from a novice warrior to a true warrior. He knew that the Illyrians would never take him seriously otherwise. So it was that his wings were bound, his shadowsinger abilities suppressed and his siphons taken from him. Ezekiel had never felt so powerless. In the week he had to reach the top of Ramiel he almost died three times, and had his first kill. His name was Emre. The names of the ones that followed him Ezekiel doesn't remember. He ended up becoming Oristian. Following this, though he was still disliked, he held more respect amongst the Illyrians. He winnowed home the moment the blood rite ended and stayed in Velaris. Now old enough and with knowledge of how the world really worked, Azriel introduced him to the art of spying, teaching him how to put his shadowsinger abilities to use.

𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 ✧ High lord Rhysand. High lady Feyre. Archeron family. The spymaster of the night court. The night court. The court of dreams. The inner circle. Velaris.

𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 ✧ master martial artist, master combatant, master spy, expert thief, expert acrobat, mind shield.
𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 ✧ Feyre taught him how to create a mind shield to shut her, or any other daemati, out of his mind. Unless the daemati is as powerful as high lord Rhysand, his thoughts are his own and cannot be read by anyone around him. Granted, there are times where his control over this ability slips, like for example when he's overcome with emotions or severely injured. The protection in his mind manifests as a wall of darkness and shadows. He has created a small room in his mind which can be used by those he trusts to communicate with him.
𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐭 ( 𝟏-𝟏𝟎 ) ✧ ( 9 )

𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲 ✧ bow mastery, dagger mastery, knife mastery, sword masters.

𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 ( 𝐬 ) ✧ shadowsinger abilities, siphon powers, flight via wings, teleporting.
𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 ✧ Shadowsingers are able to control shadows. They can merge into them or transport through them. They are also able to hear and feel things others can't. The siphons he wears allow him to concentrate and filter his raw power and allow him to transform his power into something more subtle and varied, into different objects, typically shields, weapons, or armor. Through his Illyrian wings, Ezekiel is able to fly. He is also capable of taking up to two people with him.

Pyrophobia - Pyrophobia is a fear of fire, which can be considered irrational if beyond what is considered normal. This fear was triggered by an event in the past which he doesn't like to talk about.

• Sevenda, the owner of the restaurant the inner circle usually eats. They spent a few nights together over the span of a couple of years, but stopped when she found her mate.
