Quincy thus far...

Quincy Cadell | 18 | Male | Golden Deer | Commoner | No Crest | Standing at 5’3, Quincy is a short boy with waves of long black hair which wends its way down the small of his back, lightly tanned skin and chartreuse eyes. His hair is generally worn in a singular loose braid via a couple of loops of gold thread and his uneven bangs fall over his forehead. His uniform consists of a bell-sleeved white shirt and a black and gold waistcoat, with which he tends to wear a frayed black travelling cloak and a ruby earring on his left ear. Upon his right shoulder blade, he bears a dark red brand. | Despite his colourblindness, Quincy is quite the vibrant person. He possesses a mischievous streak, deriving pleasure from teasing the other students regardless of house or status and exhibits a general disregard for the rules. This paired with his tendency to pry into other people’s affairs can get him into trouble at times but he is a genuinely friendly person. As you might expect considering his occupation, he is also quite materialistic. On occasion, he can be sly, caustic and even a bit manipulative depending on who he’s talking to. Some of these traits served him well when he had to hop from inn to inn but don’t necessarily ingratiate him to others at the academy. Though some of his actions might come off morally questionable, Quincy loathes taking lives out of anything but self-defence. People who take pride in their kill count are, to him, the lowest of the low. Something you might notice about him is that for someone who spent so long hiding their identity from others he is surprisingly open about himself. Interestingly, he appears to take little interest in training or lessons, instead spending most of his time in the library searching through the books.
| Interests: borrowing other people’s items indefinitely, the pursuit of knowledge, fashion, sailing, the occult | Likes: jewels, colourful things, strong tastes, half-truths, travel, the occasional prank, creativity | Dislikes: small spaces, fire, boredom, goodbyes, being out of the loop | No known kin. | Quincy grew up at the Cadell Institution, an orphanage in Derdriu which he stayed at until he was 16. He then built up a small amount of infamy as a thief and was dubbed ‘Magpie’ due to the bird mask he used to keep his face covered. A year later he was contacted by a self-professed clergyman from the Central Church who wanted to enlist his services in exchange for a small fortune for each request completed. One such mission involved Quincy retrieving an unknown object from a reclusive but well-known noble’s estate, however, he was caught before he could leave the building and the noble branded and cursed him, the curse dramatically shortening his lifespan and causing him to go colourblind. It was this event that led his benefactor to pull strings in order to enrol the boy so that he could access Garreg Mach’s vast library and hopefully find a cure to his curse. | His strength is in reason. He has a hidden talent in riding and weakness in heavy armour, axe and authority. | Sussuru |

In regards to his mysteeeerious benefactor, I was thinking that that guy would be a high-ranking member of the church. One of the ones who are aware/involved with the racist fanatics plan. Probably enrolled him to try and get the beastkin into the right place at the right time except Quincy's going to be far too preoccupied with books and curses and stuff to care.

His mission will start when Hera finds out that the sketchy clergyman was involved with the fanatics. Then he'll run away and the class will chase him only to maybe find out he was involved in the curse thing too? Idk. Need to work out the kinks.
It would need to take place near Verdant Rain Moon so not sure where we'll fit it.
