The city inhabited by Ivan in the burrows of Burr in Central South Triston seemed to know few boundaries in his childhood, for he had borne witness to some of the most depraved nature of the human kind who spared no thought for him at all, particularly during the terrifying years the United Front was ruling South Triston with an iron fist. Few had wanted to know or understand, for during those years, he was dismissed as a freak and taken seriously by only a select few. But his nightmare was only just beginning.

Following the murder of his mother and his father having to flee before the borders were sealed, he was forced to move in with his aunt and uncle. Though they provided him with a very pleasant home, the brutal treatment he faced at school only worsened, just as he'd expected. No change was to come until the summer of 1993, when the United Front was finally overthrown. But this wasn't enough to bring him back his father.

Instead, he focused his attention towards music. And at the age of 14, when he was cast as the bassist and backing vocalist for Severed Head, where he found the calling he had spent his whole life searching for. The dream lasted only seven years, for the band split up upon the drummer being arrested for money laundering only three days after the release of their last album.

Nowadays he has made a name for himself as an uplifting trance composer, going by the alias of Cyprium, and the profession has taken him far and wide in his career. However, he still holds bitter memories of the past within him, and while his distrust towards humans has faded over time, some, even other DJs who happen to be of that species, notice he shows more trepidation around them than other species. Nonetheless, his every performance has cast him on many adventures of sorts.


Here we see the first depiction of my Naga character Ivan, fused with the talents of  Cappuccino. Though he is without his blue blazer or his gold jewellery, he does not see them as a necessity. He wouldn't turn down a chance to have you attend one of his shows, that's for certain. ^^
