[b]Age:[/b] 18
[url=http://i.imgur.com/akCTKo0.png?1][b]Appearance:[/b][/url] His appearance seems to come mostly from his father albeit with some blatant hints about his mixed heritage. Bright green eyes and rather soft facial features are framed by silvery grey hair. He's easily above average in height at 6'2 (1.88m) and has a solid build, even if he's more of the lean side of things. His skin is of a fair coloration and his body does bear some signs from years of varied swordplay.

Personality:[/b] While confident, the way Kir presents himself often makes him unassuming to others; as much as someone with his appearance can be. Soft spoken and content to remain quiet when unnecessary, he is not someone who values the spotlight role in social situations. His sense of right and wrong has been described as more prominent than others, and he won’t hesitate to interfere in the affairs of others.

Perhaps that is a result of his competitive nature when it comes to all things regarding physical prowess. Though he enjoys swordplay in its various forms the most, naturally competing in various tournaments, he does not shy away from other sports and endeavors. Lose or win, it’s the effort and experience that matters most to Kir.

[b]Abilities:[/b] Plenty of experience in all manners of physical activities. An innate sense of direction that lets him get used to new locales quickly. The ability to stomach anything edible and some things that probably aren’t. 

[b]Native or Newcomer?[/b]: Newcomer.
[b]Cheat:[/b] Blade of the Upstart: Time for that sport you’ve been practicing all your life to save your hide! The ability to turn almost anything into a weapon suited for Kir to wield. That stick on the side of the road? That spear the guard was holding just a moment ago? All suitable! There’s also the nifty side effect of naturally picking up on the techniques and expertise of those he studies. Real annoying for them, but awesome for Kir.

[b]History:[/b] Privileged! Kir grew up in the lap of luxury with the freedom to choose between many pursuits. Despite his appearance, he chose to devote his time towards the sport of fencing and other similar practices. It was far from relaxing though, despite his apparent natural inclination. His parents allowed him a great deal of freedom to choose, but once the decision had been made pressed him to be the best. Which was fine of course. If he was going to do something, then he’d do it to the best of his ability.

Of course he still went to school, and all the stuff other people did, but without a doubt his “hobby” dominated much of his time. Returning from a casual night out with friends, it’s unfortunate that this midnight train is not bringing him home.

[b]Other:[/b] Doesn’t have any trouble falling asleep even under extreme circumstances.
