Name: Kyle Edward Parkers (now Kep) Sex: Male Age: 42 Race: Parili Affinity: Fabrico Personality: A Kleptomaniac that lives in the sewers of Ebb, and has a shrieking voice much like Gollum's from Lord of the Rings. He is generally mistrusting of all strangers that aren't parili, but is blindingly trustworthy to parili. It is worth noting that he has almost no sense of humor. Citizens of Ebb know him well, but many remember him not as a cursed man, but a monster. Greatest Love: oddities and artifacts, magical or not. Motivation: Cure himself Fighting Style: Kep uses "the box." The box is a wooden chest that has a strap so it can be thrown over one's shoulder. Twenty times per month, the box can be opened and something will fly out of it. What sort of things? The possibilities are endless. Knives, pidgeons, gardening tools, roast beef sandwiches, you name it, it could come out of the box, however it is impossible to know what could be produced from the magical dimension. If Kep cant' use the projectile function of the box, he will either hit you with one of the interesting rocks that he has found, or just wrestle you. Kep can't take a hit, the dryer patches of his skin bruise easily, but he still can dodge around easily because of the more wet parts of his skin. Because of his skin, Kep has a strong grip and can climb and grasp onto walls, to sneak up on attackers. He also very good at strangling people, as they struggle to release themselves in his grasp. Kep used to know a few spells, but he has forgotten all of them. Bio: Kep grew up in Ebb and, except for his skin, he lived a normal life and married an owl parili. However, his skin needed water, and despite the dampness of Ebb, his skin dried to quickly. He became dry and itchy, and his skin peeled off painfully. Eventually, it became painful, and he decided that he couldn't stand to be this way anymore. He decided that if injected DNA that was not his own into himself, he would no longer be so dry all the time. He used his wife's DNA, and he suffered from terrible results. First of all, he began to grow feathers on certain parts of his body. Next, he became even more like a salamander as he contracted Diparitis. He realized that he couldn' t live like this anymore, and to his wife's dismay, he left to go live in the sewers. The only thing he took with him was his research equipment and his collection of artifacts and oddities. His skin has since become better now that his skin is constantly exposed to the depths. It hurt for Kep to talk, so he never spoke to anyone during the past ten years he has spent in the sewers. His vocabulary is now very limited, and he has become a complete wreck who only cares about the cure and his artifacts. Sadly he has all but forgotten his wife. Appearance: Kep looks like a giant orange salamander that walks on two legs. Kep also has large patches of his skin are so dry that they are white and will peel sometimes peel or fall off. He has a few light brown feathers on his chest, leg, and back. He is skinny and walks with a hunch.
