Brother to Amarante and Laure
Profession: Diplomat
Gender: Male
Age: 32
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Religion: None
Affiliation: De'Loncour
Level: 1
Personality:
Having been raised away from his younger sisters, Benoit lacks their proven optimism in place of what he deems as logical. Despite having a temper similar to Laure\'s, he tends to subdue it much more efficiently in favor of his forte: diplomacy. Even with his intimidating stature, Benoit feels violence is more of a last resort for a family as sophisticated as the de`Loncour regime, and thus was schooled in the seemingly lost art of peaceful negotiation. And in the event that such a noble intention fails, well. With his unwavering loyalty to the de`Loncour and their patriarch, Benoit is content to fight if need be. Overall, he's more quiet than anything else, and has his chivalrous moments on top of that.
Physical Description:
Standing at six feet, four inches and weighing approximately two hundred and sixty pounds, Benoit keeps himself in prime condition as any de`Loncour would. A well-kept goatee and trimmed sideburns give him something of a fierce look, and his mane of dirty-blonde hair is usually kept secured in a ponytail, unless he\'s simply feeling lazy. As far as attire, Benoit rarely dresses in anything other than the fine, tailored suits and silkened dress shirts that most of the males within his family opt for. After all, why settle for less when one can have the best? No scars or tattoos mar the vampire's flesh, as Benoit\'s secret flaw is sheer, unadulterated vanity - he\'d never dare to let anybody use a needle to etch any sort of 'art' into his skin. Lastly, dark brown eyes and chiseled, well-defined facial features lend him a touch of arrogance.
Biography:
Like Laure, he lost most of his family in a cruel accident that left them orphaned. And in keeping with the honored tradition of, 'it can only get worse,' they were seperated and kept apart for years. Much like Amarante, Benoit was raised in a private school, although nowhere near as prestigous as what she was treated to. A graduate from a university that taught only diplomacy and other peaceful skills, Benoit eventually sought out Laure and rejoined her in the proud reign of the de`Loncour family. Since then, he's been something of an enigma to those that know him; he rarely speaks save for the occasional conversation with Laure, or perhaps Christian. Mostly, he'll reside in their manor with a book of some kind, and a glass of his preferred Chardonnay.
