History;[/b] Kieran was born on a snowy February day in New York City and lived there for many years. His parents were originally from the outskirts of London, however a love of travel and a longing for urban mysticism led them to New York. The tall sky scrapers, bustling streets, and grandeur were all they could hope for and more.
Being born into a muggle family made for a quiet home life, save for a few odd and unexplainable instances. ("I swear, I don't have a clue why it caught on fire! I wasn't anywhere near it, Mom!") Growing up Kieran could be described as nothing if not...well, pretty. But men (or males in general) weren't supposed to be pretty. This invariably led to trouble as people, especially children are not known to be widely accepting of anything the least bit different. Kieran was teased and harassed by older boys at a young age and any responses from him turned into misguided and unintended magic.
Eventually his parents decided a change of scenery might help, and missing their old home, they headed back to Britain, only to recieve, within months of arriving, a letter saying their son was a wizard. Kieran was thrilled, hapy to believe in the magical, and though in their hearts they doubted, his parents still congratulated him and allowed him to go.
Still things were not destined to go smoothly for young Kieran. He was sorted into Slytherin, probably one of a very few number who were not pureblood. Still, his...fitting personality could not be denied. By age thirteen, Kieran knew his interest was not in girls. He dated one or two who found his beauty intriguing and given them up without much interest.
Telling his parents did not turn out well (this on top of the magic was too much) and found himself in love with a muggle friend from London. Things ended badly, and Kieran finds himself in Slytherin house, a mudblood, and generally worse for the wear. Especially when the war began. Most Slytherins were siding with Defaeco, but as a muggleborn, he was exactly the type of person they wanted dead.[/size]
Appearance;[/b] As said before, Kieran was pretty when he was younger. Now older, he could still be described as pretty, but he'd best be in a good mood when you say it! His hair is dark brown-black, and he wears it long now, usually tied back or combed around his face.
His eyes are a bright blue, lighting an otherwise pale face. His mouth is soft, quicker to smile than frown. He apparently enjoys making life difficult for himself with his affinity for such things as lip gloss and eyeliner. ("Look, scene kids wear 'em, too. I'm not wearing girl pants or anything, for Christ's sake!") Occasionally he’ll allow Fiona to screw with his nails, but he draws the line at extreme colors. Black, dark blue, and green are fine. Red or pink is where he draws the line.
He's of average height, about eight and a half inches over five feet. Kieran has always had a slender build, and probably would've been good as a Seeker, but he wouldn't go out of his way to take the place from Kalypso. She scares him. *wink*
Kieran likes fashion because he likes looking good. His favorite styles lean towards punk outside of his robes and such, but he dabbles in prep looks occasionally. Tripp pants with straps are a personal favorite, along with Converses and band tee shirts. Hoodies are comfortable when it’s warm, but Kieran wears them a little tighter than he has to.
Despite his flair for rebellion, Kieran has yet to get a tattoo. Though he does want one. He has had several piercings at different times throughout his life, though. His ears were done, an industrial, and at one point, he had a bar through his tongue. Kieran took it out to make things easier, but the hole it still there and he sometimes puts the ball back in when he wants to look cool.[/size]
Personality;[/b] Kieran was put in Slytherin House for a reason. For him, the first in his mind has always been him. He'll do almost anything to get ahead. His temper is fearsome, but rarely shown at large. If you're his friend, he's the best friend you could hope for. If he considers you an enemy, beware; he can be dangerous.
Most of this is unapparent to the casual observer. He comes off as happy and friendly and quite ditzy because he wants to come off as such. In truth, Kieran is coolly intelligent. Many might assume they know him without even scratching the surface. His parents thought for a while he had Histrionic Personality Disorder (which might explain more than it didn't,) but Kieran never tried to find out if he did and refuses to be checked.
Despite how he comes off, Kieran has severe trust issues, and while he can act open and friendly, he quietly judges and measures people based on their words and actions. Once interested in another person, Kieran flirts outrageously, though this has little to do with the trust issue. Due to his preferences being frowned upon, he has a tendency to go too far too fast just to end up with someone for a little while.
Now, at sixteen, Kieran hates his parents. He finds them shallow and close-minded, and will be leaving his home as soon as he can manage. He intends to leave school and travel.[/size]
