Fate's a cruel one."[/b][/i][/color] [color=FFBF00][b]Name[/b][/color] [i]Keith Drew Solomon[/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Nickname/Alias[/b][/color] [i]None[/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Age[/b][/color] [i]16[/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Gender[/b][/color] [i]Male[/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Race[/b][/color] [i]Human[/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Appearance[/b][/color] [i]Keith stands at a decent height of 5'11", a touch taller than others his age- though his slack, lazed posture would lead you to believe otherwise. Despite himself, he is fairly fit and toned, likely due to genes and his family's strict training schedule. He has a rich, caramel complexion, contrasting with his droopy amber eyes that seem to pierce right through you. Keith always sports an indolent look about him, his face usually relaxed into a slight, lazy frown. He argues that this is what his facial muscles morph into when he's not using it. His posture can be summarized as 'pretty bad', as he's usually slouched, laying back or laying down. Keith usually just wears whatever he can get his hands on and is comfortable, this usually translates to a plain white tee, with his signature black and red jacket. Though his fashion can change up depending on the weather, wearing even less during the more hotter seasons. During his first scholastic year, he was generally ignored/overlooked amongst his female peers. This changed, somewhat, due to a formal event that meisters had to attend, as such he was forced to clean up. A few friends helped him look sharp, forcing him into a suit, touching up his hair, and making him to stand upright. After said event a new club about him was formed by a handful of female students which of course he is absolutely oblivious to.[/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Personality[/b][/color] [i]Keith isn't what you would call active, he (used to) lives just to laze around. His general attitude reflects this greatly, always just preferring the 'lazier' way out. He usually speaks in a clear and concise sentences to get his point across quicker. As an adage to this, his tongue can be quite sharp at times. Keith has gotten into trouble with his peers in more than a few occasions due to his rather honest, straight to the point, dialogue. With that said, it is difficult to really get a rise out of or anger Keith, as he usually lets most transgressions roll off his shoulders. Due to this, the way Keith approaches a problem is unique, his motto being 'Solve it as quickly as possible'. He opts for the fastest approach to nailing down a problem so he can go back to 'lazing' around. Now that Keith's pretty much become the 'pride' of his family, he is trying to rid himself of his 'lazier' ways, as he does not want to disappoint his family or besmirch their name- emphasis on trying. He really does want to make his family proud so he's trying to stay more active. Other than that he's surprisingly diligent about his studies, getting A(s) in all subjects. Keith's family makes sure of this, making him deathly afraid of his mother's wrath (due to failing a subject) than not being able to laze around. He also does not mind helping others out (though feigning annoyance), as long as they are willing to help themselves out.[/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Likes[/b][/color] [i]- Free Time (Lazing about, usually). - The cold, usually says it's nature's embrace. - Naps. - Drawing. - Music. - Sweets.[/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Dislikes[/b][/color] [i]- The heat, usually says it's the demons pits. - Indecisiveness. - Being woken up. - Worms. [/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Fears[/b][/color] [i]- Making his parents disappointed.[/i] [color=FFBF00][b]Backstory[/b][/color] [i]Keith had his life planned out- Well, not really. Though what little, minuscule life plan he had went up in flames due to the discovery of his rather 'exceptional' wavelength compared to his siblings. His plan was simple; Get through college with whatever degree. Find a nice, comfy 9 - 5 desk job. Come home and laze about and not worry about his parents expectation. To go back and explain, his family is or was one of the most prestigious families of meisters. Keith's great grandfather and his brother were famous meisters in their time. Many in his family were exceptional and a few even famous. Unluckily, his grand-parents AND parents didn't quite have what it took to become exceptional, noteworthy meisters. Despite this, their family still trained religiously, in hopes that one of their children would actually become a powerful meister. Keith's two brothers also didn't make the cut, being a tad below even average meisters. To their complete and utter surprise. It was found that Keith had been the one they were hoping for. His parents simultaneously were pleased and dismayed that their third son, the one least suited, was the one to be bestowed with the 'talent'. Keith agreed with them heavily, he knew that both his brothers were better suited for this but that was the hand that fate dealt. Despite this, his parents offered to not push him through DWMA. Though they tried to hide it, he couldn't bear seeing them disappointed and acquiesced to their wishes, much to their delight. Keith had entered the academy at the age of 11.[/i] [hr][hr] [b]Partner Name[/b] [i]Arlette Sylvester - [@CelesteEste][/i] [b]Meister Abilities[/b] [i]- Due to his nature, he is above average in soul perception as he can stay calm and concentrated. - Partly due to his training with his parents, he is able to utilize Soul Menace in a rudimentary degree. Helpful in a pinch. He is currently training to be able to use it in an advanced level.[/i] [b]Miscellaneous Abilities/Skills[/b] [i]- As soon as it was found out that he was to become a meister, his parents training tripled in difficulty. Most of it being based around close-quarter combat with weapons and hand to hand combat. As a result he is more physically fit and toned compared to other meisters his age. - He keeps said training up in DWMA. - As said, he is studious despite his lazier side- when asked about this his eyes darken and he refuses to talk for the rest of the day.[/i] [b]Soul Resonance[/b] [i]The blades shifts in form, gaining a golden glow and growing a bit in size, as the Demon Glaive goes from a focus on control to a focus on attack. When the swing of the weapon happens, the upper half grows massively in size in a burst of energy, as soon as it hits (or is blocked) the lower half repeats the process, allowing for a sneaky second strike of the weapon, finishing in a stylish X shaped cut if both attacks landed.[/i] [b]Extra[/b] [i]- Sometimes abruptly stops mid sentence for a long yawn. - Can draw exceptionally well.[/i] [/center] [/hider]
