Niklas König of Königreich der Welten
Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.-George SantayanaNiklas Kasimier König
Nickname: Nik, or Kas/Kaz
Birth date and age: February, 16th, age 19. (16-19.)
Sexuality: Heterosexual
In Depth Appearance:Niklas is a tall, well-built lad, though not especially large or bulky. He has the posture of a soldier, or an old-fashioned proper gentleman, rather than the more modern teenage slouch. He has bright hazel eyes, and large hands, rough from use already. Should he wear short sleeves, one will seen scars on the outside of his forearms, small and short to slightly longer, thicker ones, all of them straight from a clean cut. A scar on his left hand, from the middle of his middle finger, stretching all the way down to his wrist, curving away from him, slightly, long and thin. Decently sized shoulders act as a base to a normal-proportioned head and neck, with brown hair.
Personality:• Honor • Intelligence • Integrity •
Niklas is an outward, friendly character who doesn’t appreciate, or take, any shit whatsoever, unless he is aware that it is joking and friendly, and not serious. He has some tolerance, more so for less intelligent people, but he has a tendency to try to solve things like a gentleman- through a duel, or something similar. If such a thing does not let up, he gets vicious, to the point of broken bones. And while casual, he's a goofy, fun person to be around, that'll have a great time without breaking a single rule. Well, only one or two rules.

Biography: Niklas is his father’s son- a proud, independent individual who values honor and intelligence, and won’t put up with any bullshit. He can be kind and caring, and can go out of his way to help some one. He’s someone that wants to help, though he becomes the opposite if you piss him off. He can be patient, if he sees some value in it. And for the most part- he doesn’t believe in love. He sees maybe compatible matches, where both sides don’t mind the other, but little more.
He grew up in his father's palace, exploring its vast corridors, rooms, wings, and ballrooms. The entire building is designed to operate both as the Royal Family's home, an emergency military headquarters (being an extremely modern, advanced, and resilient building, renovated every decade to incorporate the latest technology), and an emergency bunker for civilians in the case of a bomb raid. From a young age, he was taught both by his mother and father, as well as several tutors and a nurse that took care of the more day-to-day maintenance of a child.
The child, growing up around what was essentially a sprawling modern castle, became quite pampered [if quite intelligent]. It was around the time that his mother disappeared; officially, she went into seclusion, without any more public sightings, no more diplomatic meetings that involved the gentler side of the Königreich Royalty. She disappeared; Niklas was left stumped and abandoned, without his loving mother to be there. He didn't rely on her as much as other children relied on their mothers, of course, but he always chose her over his father, or the tutors or maids. Suddenly at a loss at his young age of 12, his father finds his perfect solution, to both his military inexperience (required to rule), to his sudden loss of matron, and to his self-centered pamperedness.
Seven years in the military, training both as a traditional soldier, as well as taking classes for becoming an officer. Like any rich politician's son or daughter in the Konig's Welt Armee ("King's World Army"), he was placed into common ranks, without any significant influence to bolster his ranking. His promotions and doings are based on merit, earned by hard work and skill. Officer Academy on the side was, however, default for the upper class trainees, though, again, no one was allowed to coast. All had to work; all earned their achievements.
The Königreich fully expected that, at some point or another, something will require the Königreich's military power. Widely regarded to be the military superpower of the world (See: American military power of the modern day), as well as one of the origin of some of the most widely known and respected intellectual minds, Niklas gained the national pride of many in Königreich der Welten, proud to be part of one of the most advanced and powerful nations in the world. People from the Kingdom of Aciras might find the structured, cozy lifestyle of the common folk of Königreich der Welten cramped, crowded, and with a military that spends too much time on the streets, though it never bothers any of the populace any.
Anyone who's done any research on Niklas will know that he is trained as if he were in dire need of hand-to-hand combat, traditional bladed combat, and is ranked as a top sharpshooter. Also is known to be an intelligent tactician, and a people person, because of his often outings into the capital city, Berlin, and many droves of fans, friends, and acquaintances.
