Yiannis Faithful

Yiannis Faithful is the son of Faithful Johannes, from Faithful Johannes by the Brother’s Grimm. Faithful Johannes is about a manservant who tries to defend his king, and even goes so far to sacrifice his life for him.

Yiannis is a Royal, since he believes strongly in following a precursor’s footsteps, and is excited for his destiny ahead. The being turned-to-stone bit is rather off-putting for the young man, but he is reassured by the fact that he will return to life soon afterwards.

Athletic, loyal and demanding, Yiannis considers himself a spectacular manservant, and believes himself wholly capable of succeeding in his father’s steps as the next Faithful Johannes.

Personality
Yiannis is dependable and reliable. Well-organised and trustworthy, a person can always count on him for favours or advice. He is the ultimate loyal friend, who will never spill a bro’s secrets, who will always come to someone’s aid, and who will never make a friend feel bad.

Since people think him as an ordinary servant, they often see him as the kind of person to put others before himself. However, this is definitely not the case. Yiannis is actually very demanding and picky when things are not done in a particular way. He’s impatient and wishes that life would speed up and things could get done more quickly. He believes in doing tasks efficiently and heavily dislikes the idea of procrastination.

He is also far from humble, and often sees himself better than others. This is due to the fact that his father was regarded as the king’s best servant, and the fact that he is destined to become just as good a servant as his father. Since he has been praised all his life, he has come to believe that he is better than many commoners, but he acts submissive towards royalty.

Yiannis regards honour as very important, and will be incredibly unforgiving to anyone who infringes on his honour. Seriously, don’t mess with his guy. If you get on his bad side, you’ll see the typically noble manservant transform into a vindictive and smug aggressor who will do anything to get back at you. As a wise man said, beware the wrath of a kind man.

He’s a huge fan of sport, particularly yachting or any often sort of boating. In his free time, he kayaks on the lakes nearby the school, and goes for a run early in the morning. While he’s definitely not the fastest sprinter or the swiftest boatman, he certainly has a passion for sport, and will do whatever he can to strive for his personal best. He’s also well-learned in rhetoric, and is fond of public speaking as a result. You would be very likely to see him as first or third speaker in debates, passionately listing off points and keeping audiences attentive.

Appearance
Yiannis is a handsome boy, with unkempt blonde hair and well-defined features. His skin is tanned due to his fondness of outdoor activities, and he has a slim, but short figure.

He carries himself in a confident manner, and often gives off the impression that he knows exactly what he is doing. Yiannis is very precise in his movements, and moves light-footed elegance.

How does Yiannis come into it?
Yiannis is the son of Faithful Johannes.


 * When Johannes tells the truth behind his action, he turns to stone. When Yiannis tattle-tales on someone, he can’t move.
 * I told my friends to read the tale of Faithful Johannes once, and they picked out gay subtext between Johannes and the king. For this very reason, I made Yiannis gay.
 * Johannes is the most faithful servant, while Yiannis is trustworthy and reliable.
 * Johannes sails on a golden boat to introduce the princess to the prince. Yiannis enjoys any kind of water sports.
 * Since Johannes is the most valued servant, I thought he would be likely to read out decrees and advise the king. Therefore, Yiannis would be well-trained in rhetoric.
 * Yiannis’ dislike of birds is a reference to the ravens who foretell their plans to kill the king.

Romance
Yiannis has recently come out as gay. However, coming out of the closet has drew the boy some unwanted attention, and Yiannis had wished he didn’t make such an abrupt announcement.

He is uninterested in anyone at the current moment, and does not want to involve himself in any sort of courting or dating presently. Yiannis has emphasised this point very strongly, particularly to a witch boy and energetic young eagle who are fighting for his affections.

Enemies
Yiannis has a general dislike of birds of prey, particularly ravens. As a result, he avoids the Dodicis and Septems, who are destined to turn into ravens. This fear is mainly due to the fact that ravens perch on the golden ship which he is destined to sail on, and foretell the grim events which will happen to the prince.
