Personnel File: Burning Flute
Searing Strings is a demonblooded musician. He is 22 years of age and has Restricted Security Clearance.
Description:
Burning Flute has coffee-colored skin and dark eyes. He is always (ALWAYS!) accompanied by his identical twin brother, Searing Strings. Both wear their dark hair cut short, and both favor simple grey clothing. They generally carry cases for their instruments (a shamisen and a flute), and finish each other's sentences in casual conversation. They both have a disturbing tendency to act as a single organism: absentmindedly brushing hair away form each other's faces, feeding each other without looking where the fork is going, and even scratching each other's itches. They prefer the word "we" to the word "I." See attached image and video.
Personality:
Burning Flute has been examined and deemed fit for duty by the Chief Medical Officer. Notable personality traits include asexuality, an obsessive and crippling love for his brother (they had to be forcibly separated for their medical examination, and were both obviously deeply uncomfortable when more than a few feet from each other), a paralyzing fear of demons, and a fascination with music, language, and mathematics. Both brothers are astounding musical prodigies, capable of composing and playing duets together that would warm the hearts of the cruelest demon princes.
Security Profile:
The Twins have admitted (without being asked to do so) to the Security Corps that they are both demonbloods, born of a master flutist and Zsofika the Kite Flute. They have no useful powers other than their music, and generally keep to themselves. They've worked out a private language with each other based on musical cues and touch, and they have an obvious fear and hatred of all things demonic. It is advised that they be kept away from any vital systems just to be safe, but they're not considered a serious threat. The Security Corps keeps the details of their heritage private at their request.
The Twins were born in Paragon, and both bear the mark of the Perfect on their hands. In the event of an attack by agents of the Ebon Dragon, it is recommended that they be eliminated: there is a remote possibility that the Perfect is alive and suborned by the enemy, in which case they are a liability.
