Description Our hero; Cyrille Le Paradox. A popular young up and coming millionaire museum curator, not much is known of Cyrille outside his job, and he’d prefer to keep it that way, seeing as his other job is classified as a thief. Taught by his father until he was unfortunately incarcerated; Cyrille upholds his families traditions of only stealing from other criminals. But this hasn’t stopped young Cyrille from taking on other challenges, such as tomb raiding to bolster his museum’s collection, and sometimes just his own personal collection of artifacts. But Cyrille has also done a bit of reverse tomb raiding, stealing cursed artifacts from wrongdoers and putting them back in their proper resting place to prevent disaster. Armed with thieving techniques, gadgets, and his trusty rapier; Cyrille Le Paradox works in the shadows…or more accurately, in the shadow of a certain cyborg raccoon hellbent on destroying those who would threaten his own lineage’s infamy. There’s only room for one family of thieves here, let’s see who comes out on top.


Had an idea a few days back for a bit of a role reversal for Sly and Le Paradox, the former being the villain and the latter being the hero, so...Reverse AU!Cyrille (or Hero!Cyrille) for y’all. Also should note he primarily works alone, but it’s not unheard of for him to take on temporary accomplices. I’ll have more on this AU (including a proper reference of Villain!Sly) when it comes to me.

Welp, looks like I'm in a love triangle between this AU and the canon version

Haha well that would be a mindfuck considering how evil Le Paradox was xD So if he was the hero, that would be pretty interesting. I love your tank on him, very elegant and formal yet ready for adventure and traversing rooftops. Nice design!

This actually seems pretty cool. Personally, I'd like to see a team up between Sly and Le Paradox.

So our Le Paradox is a skinny, cowardly liar who talks his way into getting what he wants.

Whereas this one is a muscular honorable young man who's actions speak louder than his words.

Does he have a gang?

This guy should be in the next game. I'm not kidding, he sounds a lot better than the canon version, he's more interesting, AND he fights a cyborg Sly Cooper? Sign me up!

Well, well. So THIS is what the Nega-universe version of Cyrille Le Paradox might look like! I gotta say, you put some genuine thought into his design, and it shows. While I find the "Prime" universe Le Paradox to be an insufferable jerk who didn't take ENOUGH thwacks to the face, I'm interested in seeing how his alt-universe counterpart is different.

Also, bonus points for inverting the nature of Le Paradox's "partnerships;" the Prime Cyrille abandons his partners whenever he thinks he doesn't need them any more; but this guy sounds like he shows some genuine respect to his partners, working alone out of necesity/preference.

Alt Cyrille is...well, hmm. He's sort of like Sly in that he has a bit of an ego; but it's REALLY EASY for him to slip into being a huge nerd when someone brings up history or artifacts, etc. Also when he's not inherently concentrating on a job or his acrobatics, he's a bit clumsy. Probably due to leading a double life where he has to seem pretty unassuming as a museum curator. But despite acting clumsy/nerdy/sometimes a bit cowardly, when it comes down to it, he has a cool head and determination to get the mission done.

And you hit the nail on the head for respecting his partners! He's very much used to working alone, but appreciates help when he can get it/needs it.

Wow. You REALLY put some thought into this backstory. I salute you, Cheri.

Speaking of which, I've also done some deep dabbling in the Sly Cooper fandom, and I'd love to share those ideas with a fellow fan. Would you be interested in sharing ideas for fan-characters, stories, crossovers, and so on and thereforth? If so, let me know, and I'll shoot you a Private Message--or however else you'd prefer to be contacted.

Hope to hear from you soon!

Dude...what if somehow the two universes got mixed and Sly met up with this version of LeParadox? Total chaos...
