{{Tab}} | {{Tab}}Boyish and bright-smiled and winged, but the sharp-clawed bat-wings and wickedly fanged smile put few people in mind of an angel. Dusk tends to live his life with a fierce passion. It's -- hit or miss how much that passion is tempered with any kind of good ''judgment'' to guide it, though. | ||

! Description | |||
|- | |||
| | |||
{{Tab}}Dusk is a skinnynerd conglomeration of sharp angles and gangly limbs. His lanky-lean build conspires to make his 5'10" look taller than it actually is, longboned limbs and sinewy muscle. His usual pallor is only accentuated by the darkness that surrounds it, a mop of messily curling waves framing his angular face; his jaw is often shadowed too by a dark scruff of beard. His eyes are large, dark as well and given to a reflective shine in low lights. Behind his thin lips, wickedly sharp elongated canines are prominently noticeable, longer in the upper set but no less sharp below. Most notable of all are his wings, enormous and wide and dark as well, ribbed with long fingerbones and tipped with talons at their points; they call to mind a bat in their membranous fuzzy-soft flexibility. | |||

{{Tab}}Dusk is a well-known face around New York mutant community; not in the fame sense but in the "probably a friend of a friend" sense, extroverted to the core and ''kind'' of a ho; for anyone ''active'' in mutant circles in the city, likely even if they do not know him they know plenty of people who do. Known to be a giant nerd, extremely friendly, invaluable help if your computer is broken, and probably dtf. | |||
{{Tab}}In the Brotherhood, an extremely competent hacker who is ''usually'' more use behind the keyboard than on mission front lines despite being well known to be staggeringly strong. Together with [[B]] Helps a lot with intel-gathering during mission planning. | |||
{{Tab}}In Prometheus community, anyone who came out of the lab raids ''definitely'' knows him -- he makes sure to touch base with every Promethean they have ever rescued and does his best to keep in touch with any and all the ones who are willing to keep in touch with him -- after having several people ''re''-disappeared after being rescued, he is determined not to let others slip through the cracks. | |||

{{Tab}}Dusk's skillbase is largely nerd-oriented. He is cutthroat in board games, has large amounts of minutiae of various roleplay systems practically memorized (though he likes Shadowrun the best) and a fantastically impressive M:tG collection. He's excellent with computers; a freelance webdev by profession and with a keen interest in security by hobby. | |||
{{Tab}}He's pretty good on a skateboard and can fix his own bike, though homelessness --> Prometheus --> NYC (and a set of wings that can shuttle him around pretty quick) means he's never actually learned to ''drive''. He's fluent in ASL and Spanish and passingly familiar with Thai and Vietnamese. He's also fantastic with a sewing machine; nearly a decade of having to tailor his own clothes to allow for giant wings meant this started out as simply a ''necessary'' skill to learn but has evolved into an enjoyable hobby. | |||
{{Tab}}Time spent in Prometheus (and later on the Prometheus raid team and in the Brotherhood) has left him very practiced in combat. Living with (and ''training'' with) a pair of telepaths means he has many years of practice guarding his mind from psi-folk, though he has no greater than usual resistance to psionic manipulation or probing from anything more than passing scans. | |||

! Trivia | |||
|- | |||
| | |||
*Perfectly happy to be called by his legal name (Ryan), but at this point in his life very few people in mutant circles habitually call him that; he got the nickname Dusk as a joke shortly after getting out of the labs specifically because people in Prometheus circles were tired of having to clarify Which Ryan they were talking about. The [[Ryan|louder and more flamboyant Ryan]] won Ryan Primacy in their friend group and Dusk's nickname stuck. | |||
*Not a Certified Interpreter but an extremely competent one, frequently offers ASL interpreting services for mutant-specific events, due to the scarcity of available interpreters in the city willing to work at them. | |||
*Was the only hearing member of his immediate family; both parents and both his younger and older siblings are all Deaf. ASL is his native language; he didn't actually even learn to speak (orally) until after starting elementary school. | |||
*Has a Youtube channel where he performs songs in ASL. It's not exactly a ''secret'' in that, you know, it's videos of him on the internet, but he does not generally actually tell anyone he knows in person of its existence. | |||
*Is a very active Ingress agent on the side of the Resistance. (Agent name: DarkwingDusk) | |||
*Is Puerto Rican on his mother's side of the family and has a huge amount of extended family in the Nuyorican community in the area, though he's on complicated terms with many of them on account of Vampire. | |||
