[*][b]Perceptive: [/b]Being a generally quiet and observant person, Kenzie picks up on details quickly and reacts accordingly. [*][b]Quick Reflexes: [/b]Knives and daggers are Kenzie’s weapons of choice because of his speed, and years of fighting in close quarters have caused Kenzie to develop lightning-fast reflexes. [*][b]Speed: [/b]Kenzie’s light build and quick reflexes as well as his connection to Aether have boosted his speed to almost inhuman heights. While fast on average, his real speed comes out when under pressurized environments. [*][b]Weapon Mastery: [/b]As both a hunter and a warrior, Kenzie is proficient in using almost all weapons. However, he favors knives for combat and the bow for the hunt. [*][b]Friend of Life: [/b]Kenzie naturally draws animals towards him. Whether it be his quiet and kind demeanor or his hidden connection to Aether, the god of pure air and life, Kenzie easily befriends fauna, earning their trust. It helps that Kenzie often spends time alone in the forest, surrounded by life. [/list].[/color][/i][/hider] [hr] Kenzie stared blankly forwards as he walked with his tribe, his mind clear of thought. The Abaneki Tribe was heading towards the Valley where the clans would hold their meetings. The last time he was there, he remembered sharing stories of various hunts with Feir. His eyes sharpened as he thought about the man, slightly more interested in the gathering later that day. “Kenzie!” Xander called, waving Kenzie over. Kenzie sped up his pace to catch up to the man, a frown on his face. That the son of the chief was calling him wasn’t new, but Xilas seemed mildly concerned with something, which put Kenzie on edge. “I want you to keep an eye on my sister, Xena,” Xander said, looking at the hunter. Kenzie’s face remained impassive as he listened. “The tribes may have agreed to a truce during meetings in the Valley, but one can never be too careful,” Xander said. “That’s why I want to assign you to be Xena’s personal guard. Stay with her and protect her, Kenzie.” [color=611B90]”I will, Xander,”[/color] Kenzie said to the future chieftan. Xander clapped the hunter on the back before moving back to take his place at the front of the pack, leaving Kenzie to contemplate his charge. Xena, the daughter of the Chieftan. Kenzie had spoken with her a few times, so they weren't strangers, but with their difference in status they might as well be. However, guarding the daughter of the Chieftan was an honor asked of few, and Kenzie intended to live up to that honor. After arriving at the clearing, Kenzie weaved through the crowd to find Xena. Spotting her iconic wolf mask, he approached, stopping when he noticed her searching the crowd. [i]Looking for someone?[/i] Kenzie thought, frowning. Hopefully this wouldn't complicate his job. He approached the heiress, bowing politely when he neared. [color=611B90]”Lady Xena,”[/color] Kenzie said, [color=611B90]”your brother Xander has assigned me to be your guard. Please allow me to accompany you for tonight.”[/color] A familiar voice made her stop. She turned towards the man who was bowing his head politely.[color=f49ac2] "Kenzie Moraitis,"[/color] she said with recognition. Her head was held high, and she spoke in such a soft and delicate manner - what one would expect from the daughter of the Chieftain. She shot him a warm smile. "[color=f49ac2]I'd be pleased to have you accompany me."[/color] As strange as it was, the man's presence made her feel safer. Calmer. She glided past him and motioned for him to follow. [color=f49ac2]"I've hear about your accomplishments as a hunter. "[/color] Kenzie paused, unsure of what to say. [color=611B90]”I'm honored, my lady,”[/color] he said at last, grimacing at how stiff he sounded. He was in the presence of a member of the higher ranks of the tribe, yet all he could do was give four-word responses. [color=611B90]”Is there anyone you would like to speak to, Lady Xena?”[/color] It took a few moments for Xena to register what he had meant. She was surprised that he had noticed, but she kept a straight face. [color=f49ac2] "I was looking for someone, yes."[/color] From a distance, she spotted Flydren, and an idea came to mind. [color=f49ac2] "Ah, there he is. I should go greet my friend,"[/color] she said as she began walking towards him in a slow and graceful manner. Kenzie followed the heiress, looking to the purple-haired man ahead. It was Fyldren, the heir to the Longear tribe--a surprising acquaintance for Xena, but not impossible considering that they were both heirs to their tribes. As Xena neared him, she noticed the look of distress on his face. [color=f49ac2]"Flydren," [/color]she called. She stopped right infront of him to garner his attention. [color=f49ac2] "Are you heading somewhere?"[/color]
