Cyr Blyme is a non-playable character in Final Fantasy XIV. He is a character of Hildibrand side story in Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward.

History[]

Early life[]

Cyr is a brilliant graduate of Saint Endalim's Scholasticate. He should have joined the upper echelons of the Holy See by rights, but made one small mistake on an important missive, and found himself consigned to the inquisition instead. Cyr worked long and hard as an assistant, and became a true inquisitor when his superior, Charibert de Leusignac, was invited to join the Heavens' Ward. At the age of twenty, he labored tenaciously to ensure the longevity of his organization.

Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward[]

After reading a report by Ser Redwald Younge on the sight of a suspected half-naked heretic, Cyr began to investigate the heretic. Cyr accused Godbert Manderville of being the heretic, but Lord Edmont de Fortemps intervened. Upon learning of Nashu and Warrior of Light's search for Inspector Hildibrand Manderville, Cyr proposed to join forces and continue the search in Falcon's Nest—where the first reported sightings of Cyr's quarry originated—as it was possible that both sought the same man. During the search, the party encountered a Gentle Dead Man who had the ability to track down their beloved lord through an aetheric bond. As the others rushed off, eager to find the inspector, Cyr tried to determine if zombification was a sickness that had to be purged. The party found Hildibrand buried in the snow and Godbert appeared to rouse his son, much to Cyr's surprise. Hildibrand was alive and only hibernating, making Cyr question the reality. During Hildibrand's awakening a memoryless mammet was found and Hildibrand named him Gigi and promised to help him recover his missing memories.

Cyr's superiors at the Supreme Sacred Tribunal of Halonic Inquisitory Doctrine had decided that, in the interest of public safety, the mammet Gigi must be seized and subjected to thorough examination. Should it be determined that the mammet was of heretical origin, it was to be destroyed. Cyr's attempt to convince Hildibrand to surrender Gigi into his custody led to a debate on the mammet's gender. The commotion drew Lord Edmont out from nearby Fortemps Manor, who agreed with the inspector that the mammet was clearly a boy. Upon learning of the inquisition's interest in Gigi, the count suggested that Hildibrand adopt the mammet as a ward, and even offered to stand as witness. Cyr could only look on in horror as Gigi was formally granted the patronage of House Manderville.

After a series of unbelievable events involving the Inspector, Cyr proclaimed himself the only sane man in a world gone mad. Though he had failed in everything he set out to achieve, he took solace in Gigi being able to overcome his personal crisis... before berating himself for appearing to care about the feelings of a mammet. He duly departed for the city to inform his superiors of recent events, as ridiculous and unproductive as they proved to be. Inquisitor Cyr's supervisors were understandably displeased with his "gross mishandling of the situation". Nevertheless, they remained convinced that Gigi was the product of heretical machinations, leaving Cyr with no option but to continue his investigation. While he did not share his superiors' view, he did believe there was something unusual about the mammet and the powers he─it wielded. Mayhap, one day, he would find the answers he seeks.

Cyr had finally been charged with a duty that did not directly concern Inspector Hildibrand and his heretical mammet Gigi. In recent days there had been rumors of charlatans masquerading as knights of the Heavens' Ward. Cyr recruited Hildibrand to help with the investigations, and due to the report of an elderly maiden—who was a victim of the imposters—the imposters were taking shelter in Idyllshire.

After an exceedingly eventful journey in which the party narrowly escaped death at the hands of the Dravanians, the Gnath, and the Illuminati, they arrived safely in Idyllshire. In a surprising and not at all suspicious turn of events, the Warrior of Light and Cyr received detailed information regarding the Grand Sers─the impostors they sought─from an elderly treasure hunter who bore a striking resemblance to the elderly maiden in Ishgard. Upon hearing Cyr make note of this fact, the treasure hunter abruptly declared that a three-headed goobbue was behind Cyr and fled.
