Birthplace: Tent in a traveling cirque troupe in the Earth Kingdom

Current Residence: Travels with the troupe, currently in the Dark Nation State

|OPTIONAL|

Birthday: October 31st, 717 AO

Blood type: B+

Hobbies: Juggling, hand balancing, trapeze, acrobatics, etc.

Quirks: Before a show Kieran will always recite a monologue from a play to calm his adrenaline. The monologue changes nearly every time. He also has a tendency to eat whatever is in front of him, or whatever he happens to walk by. Since he is always working, he finds he's always a bit hungry and can eat as much as he wants without gaining any weight, and he's not picky.

Sample Act In A Show:

|APPEARANCE|

Hair: Messy and black/dark brown. Cut in layers and brushing over his face, it tapers to an end down his neck.

Eyes: Expressive blue eyes that are enhanced by red stage make up when in shows.

Height: 5' 7''

Clothes: Varies widely. In shows he normally wears frilly blues and pinks, clothing that would be associated with a girl. The shirt almost always is cut in a V down his chest all the way to his hips. Sometimes his costume will also sport a set of very realistic white and feathery angel wings. Outside shows he'll wear commoner clothes. Whatever the managers buy him or whatever there is to wear.

Skin: Very fair and creamy skin. He doesn't burn for being fair, and always keeps his skin free of blemishes.

Body Type: Nimble, agile, a bit wiry. Build for acrobatics. Very well muscled and extremely strong, but he appears quite skinny because there is literally no fat on him, it's all muscle.

|CHARACTERISTICS|

Personality: If you need a smile or some comfort, Kieran is the person to go to. His face is graced with a vibrant smile that almost never leaves and he is deeply empathetic with people. He doesn't like negative energy and can sense when it's there, so he is quickly becoming a master of resolving problems and diffusing tension. Kieran seems to have a vault of unending optimism even in the more dire circumstances and no doubt he'll come up with a plan. He is one of those people who needs a basic plan for everything but deals with improvisation and surprises well. Being in the cirque has taught him to expect the unexpected, especially when you shouldn't expect it.

Ever curious and inquisitive, Kieran is one to stick his nose into other people's business. He likes to know what is going on, why, and what he can do about it. Furthermore, his solution will usually seem far fetched. He has his own set of logic that doesn't seem to fit most peoples. He's frighteningly trusting along with priding himself to be one of the most reliable people out there. He has an uncanny knack for appearing out of no where and getting people out of bad (and sometimes extreme) situations.

Personal Strengths: Trustworthy, reliable, good listener, friendly, optimistic, curious, social, acrobatics.

Personal Weaknesses: Very trusting, curious, doesn't know how to use weapons in combat, merciful, structured.

Personal Hero: All of the senior and experienced members of his troupe.

Dreams and Ambitions: To inspire people through acrobatics, and later, by joining the Elemental Warriors to help the nations.

Likes: Acrobatics, people, food (all kinds), art, travel, performing.

Dislikes: Curfew, strict rules, alcohol, tea (allergic to it), ungrateful/uncooperative people.

Brief History:
Kieran was born in a tent while his mother was traveling with the cirque. He had been a mistake baby; his mother was drunk one night and woke up the next day pregnant, never knowing who the father was. Yet, she couldn't force herself to hate the child and continued working with the cirque until she bore him in a small Earth Kingdom town. Everyone in the troupe raising him, taught him to be a performer like themselves. Briefly, very briefly, Kieran and his mother were together in the cirque. Then, while on tour in the Light Kingdom, a low life street rat slit his mother's throat and left Kieran alone with the troupe.

Kieran grew up not lingering over his mother's death or wondering who his father was. As far as he was concerned, the troupe was his family. From an early age he also learned he could dark bend, a trait apparently handed down from the unknown father. Kieran treated dark bending like a holy gift from the gods and used it sparingly for several years. It was only when he was old enough to be permitted in shows that he started flaunting it, using it in every possibility that presented itself. Pretty soon he made a name for himself in the cirque as the 'lovebird' for his many duo trapeze acts and 'angel' for his solo aerial contortion pieces.

While his life isn't what people would call normal or uneventful, nothing of huge importance has happened to him since his mother's death. So, no one would be expecting him to be an Elemental Warrior, especially not himself.

Edit: Didn't mention it on the app but just for reference Kieran is gay. ^^
