Philocrates is often pictured to be a striking and handsome young man. He is tall, built, and muscular with height around 185 cm. His dark brown hair is short, thick, but scruffy. People often call him charming by the eyes, especially girls. Philocrates has big, dark green eyes that show his kindness. He has pointy, thick eyebrows and full lips.
About his outfit, nothing much to say, Philocrates dresses in simple white ancient Greek clothing with rough fabric and sometimes only in a simple tunic. He wears Greek traditional sandals but sometimes he's seen barefooted.
Feel the heartbeat
Personality Description:
Philocrates isn't definitely a cheerful person. In fact, he's considered to be rather gloomy, calm, cold, and has lack of humor. But maybe it was because of the past he had before. Before his original family was killed, Philocrates used to be a happy and cheerful boy, but since his family died, his mood totally changed. He was now no longer happy or funny. Even he's considered to be moody and short tempered sometimes.
But it doesn't mean that he's a mean person and doesnt' want to talk to anyone. Well, he is independent, but he's still kind and helpful to each other, not to mention he likes to help anyone who needs help.
Likes:
- Isolating himself to the top of the hill
- Travelling
- Wandering around when he's not in duty
Dislikes:
- Local girls who often flirt with him
- Wine o drinks that can make him drunk
- Disrespectful people
Strength:
- Martial Art
- Physical strength
- Speed (he's a good runner)
Weaknesses:
- Losing people he loves
- Sometimes he's moody
- Short-tempered
Story of my Life
Spouse/Lover: None Marital status: Single Family:
His original family is unknown. Obviously they're nobles (not royals).
Adopted family
Father: Achaicus (56) Mother: Demetria (49) Older brother: Erasmus (27)
History:
Philocrates means "friend of power" from Greek öéëïò (philos) "friend" and êñáôïò (kratos) "power".
Born Nicodemus from a noble family in Troy. His parents were socialite and close to the royals of Troy. The family also had an older son named Helladius who was five years older than Nicodemus himself. Nicodemus grew to be a striking young boy yet naughty. On his trip to the market in Troy, Nicodemus suddenly went missing and later he was found playing with commoner kids. Compared to Helladius, Nicodemus was even more aggressive and open.
One night, when Nicodemus was ten, his mansion was invaded by group of people who later killed his family and robbed the entire house. Nicodemus luckily survived along with his young female servant. They ran away as fast as they could before the murderers could capture them. Later from the female servant, Nicodemus learned that his father was having a debt with his noble friend. But his father refused to pay and pretended to forget that he had a debt. So that was why the whole family was later killed.
Unfortunately, the murderers succeeded to track down the servant and Nicodemus. The servant was killed but nicodemus ran away until he was exhausted and unconscious. The next day he woke up and found himself lying inside a small house, likely a hut, near the downtown of Troy. Obviously, he was found by a poor family of carpenter. Achaicus, the head of the family, knew who the boy he found actually was.
To keep the boy's identity, Achaicus decided to call him Philocrates. Achaicus with his wife Demetria and son Erasmus tried to comfort him from the accident Philocrates had just had. Slowly, the boy decided to forget about the pain he had deep inside his heart.
Years passed, Philocrates grew to be a striking yet handsome young man. He helped his family running business in downtown of Troy working as a carpenter. He didn't only sit and work as a carpenter but also delivered the work he created to the costumer's house, which was sometimes not only located in Troy but also cities outside it.
