A Strong Body
Picture:
Appearance: Kai was born to be a daunting fellow generally based upon his facial appearance. In the physical department their isn't anything too special, holding an average height and weight along with his muscle tone being more on the average side of things. His true intimidating presence resides on his face, his eyes in most particular. In color they are hazel but hold a natural look of a delinquent, or at least that's how others responded upon first greeting. That being said his facial expressions aren't that far off from what one person would expect, it is either fairly blank or extremely serious, following usually under those circumstances. He is also seen to give an uncomfortable smile when to overly joyed.
Going back to the normal sides of Kai, his hair is at a medium length and has a mix of brown and red coloring. He keeps it in a rather ruffled manner, with a slight part appearing at the top right. He has kept it in this fashion since he could remember, mostly resembling his fathers style. His skin is more on the pale side, needing more of his fair share out in the sun, a small scar can be noticed on his left shoulder from a fighting incident.
As for clothing styles, his personal preference is a more long and warm type. From long sleeve shirts and jeans, to jackets and longer shorts. Darker colors seem to be his choice, silver being the exception of that being Kai's favorite color. His most notable outfit would be a long sleeved shirt in a silver in color. Over that being a purple scarf, hanging down in the back to his midsection. Jeans with an almost complete black color still hinting blue. And finally a variety of sneakers, which seem to be his main choice of footwear.
Height: 5'9
Weight: 147 lbs
Fighting Style: Kai has spent his entire life unwillingly plastered as a delinquent that no one could mess with. He's grown rather use to the feel and foot work required to fend off most any basic fighter with ease. Kai has a distaste for fighting and so has only actually been in one fight, pertaining to a defensive style. His lack in striking force keeps him usually on the other side of a fist. His main way of fighting, works around using his opponents against themselves, letting them do their work while he strategies on finding mistakes to take advantage of, all the while dealing small amounts of counter damage.
Kai seems to take no joy for combat, he uses little words and ignores others comments during a brawl. In some circumstances he tries to reason with others to end or refuse their battle, in that way he is somewhat of a pacifist. Even so he does fight with honor and respect, at the end of the day most likely mercy will be shown along with a admirable comment depending on what brought upon this act.
Personality: Kai is seen as a serious, unapproachable, and a troublemaker from his peers and those whom get taken up by his appearance. Underneath the face is a person of compassion and an overall pleasant personality. Kai's most noticeable quality is that of his well being for others, he is someone who goes out of his way to help people in a pinch. Though his actions aren't immediate, he is more of a thinker and plans moves rather then relying on his natural abilities alone. He is a calmer person in that sense and handles himself fairly well, he rarely overreacts or lets negativity get the best of him.
Being as most others have prematurely judged him, Kai has wired it in himself that people already think of him as a bad person. He hasn't been able to make any true friendly ties with another, not knowing how it feels to have anyone besides family to trust on. This causes him to be more independent, carrying things by himself is something he has accepted. He is cautious upon friendly meetings and has a hint of uncomfortableness behind his stern face. He can stumble his words or even leave out random ones, leaving confusion. He uses a more simplified pattern of speech, his conversational skills are lacking and tends to not find words to say and so keeps them short therefore ending them quicker.
No matter the person Kai has always shown a polite side to most people who considered getting that close to him that is. He was taught to gain respect one must first give it as well, he keeps that as a task for himself. He is even known for bearing no grudges over most people, hoping that with enough consideration and actions he can change their reasoning. This part of him is still a work in progress as it hasn't been working that greatly.
One of Kai's quirks is that of an unlucky streak you could say, he has a way of getting himself both in and out of fighting situations. He has even started to call it his own little curse that he was born to bear, he's accepted that fact and gone out of his way to negate the effects from others, keeping his burden alone. Another more noticeable flaw of his is slightly lacking in the humor department, he is fond over jokes and comedy but while doing it himself he seems to miss the point.

Hobbies:
Reading - Becoming something Kai turned to due to his loneliness at a young age. Almost always can be seen reading during his free time, getting lost in novels or even picturing himself in them. He has always loved fiction and found adventure genres to be his favorite.
Writing - His adoration for books grew more deeper than that and soon had the urge to create his own stories for others to enjoy. He's lacking the experience and imagination at the moment so they tend to be rather bland. His families memoirs are his main priority in making it his greatest work for those to come.
Collecting - A lesser focused hobby of Kai's has been collecting different kinds of figures he found fascinating. They vary from figures of mythology to those he's seen in video games and other forms of animated pieces. He has an entire shelf full of them and brought them to Shibusen. His favorite is that of a blue human like hedgehog similar to the figure in his favorite book.

Aspirations: For the time being Kai wishes to follow the path he has chosen, to see where being a meister takes him. His all time goal in life is to become an author or novelist.
History: Kai was the only child of Roy and Martha Faulknor on August 28th, in Nashville, Tennessee. His life at home was fairly normal, his mom was a house wife and his dad spent most of his time working. As he got older and older he soon grew aware of the curse he had to bear in life. During his first day of school he was accused for beating up a small girl, whom got knocked out by blindly running into him. His father got him out of trouble with some convincing, though that wouldn't be the last time these shenanigans happened.
The rest of Kai's grade school life was pretty much stuck with his lonely curse, even managing to get into the near double digits with his accidental scuffles only worsening his situation. With no friends due to his reputation his entertainment went towards reading. He grew a fast fascination in them and soon became his only solace during his free times.
When entering middle school it escalated to an entirely new level, his name managed to keep it's status and his accidental brawls started to take a different turn. The normal kids he were use to began to span out to a larger variety, the kind he most found where those who wanted to prove themselves as some kind of big shots by taking him down. If anything Kai would rather just be alone then have to deal with these kinds of people, he would just dodge their requests and out wit them till the chase bored them.
It wasn't till after a day of school Kai found a boy in his school's uniform being bullied by a few hooligans. He took it upon himself to interfere without hesitation and challenged them, letting the boy escape in their drawn attention. Being outmatched by the handicap, Kai couldn't do much but continue to dodge and get up if knocked down. After being thrashed around for sometime he started to believe he was hallucinating, seeing an odd orb in all of their chests. In his confusion he managed to trip and delivered a super effective headbutt with enough force to take them off their feet. He used the opportunity to escape, with nothing more then a few bruises. The kid approached Kai the next day with gratitude in a shaky voice, Kai's appearance was enough to leave the poor fellow wetting himself. Before Kai could speak the boy was already slowly making an exit, a nod of disappointment was seen before Kai went back to his normal day.
The same occurrence with the orbs inside of people started to happen at random intervals, His parents dodged his questions about this obviously hiding something. When after a larger incident took place with his ability distracting him, leaving Kai open and getting the worse end of a roughly damaged shoulder, now leaving a scar.
With some final reasoning on Kai's part after his shoulder recovered, he broke down the hidden area and the flow of secrets flooded out. His dad and his mom both discussed to Kai about being a meister, Shibusen, and their ties to it. After finding out his dad has those same abilities though chose to use them for a simpler side of justice. Since his father took that path finding the original to much for him to handle, they left it up to Kai to decide if he wished to attend the academy or live out his life as is. He pondered on it for a few days, taking his time to think of the possibility and what he may encounter. With so little he achieved in his ordinary life, maybe his curse was mean't to lead him here, or simply make things even more difficult there. In the end he decided that becoming a meister was something he wanted to experience.
He would be enrolling on the upcoming semester where a new adventure awaited him. As a parting gift, Kai received a book telling the tales of the meisters throughout his family. They wrote down their tales as memoirs, leaving space for the next generation. Now Kai's chapter shall be written.
Extra Notes:
-Kai's favorite book was one he read as a child, it was a tale about a hedgehog which started his interest for the animal.
-His families book of memories has become his most cherished possession, its kept hidden in his room and promised himself not to read the other pages till he is happy with his first pages.-Sloppy makeouts

Face Claim: Original character
RP Sample: The sound of hoodlum shenanigans and loud thuds could be heard throughout the better part of the cities shopping area. The cause of this act was none other then Kai, known for being nearly untouchable throughout the young-lings of his schooling area. The boys huddling around him with smirks of intimidation, like a pack of animals hunting down a feast among the top dogs. In the back sounds of metal thumping against the ground, two taping their weapons against the ground eagerly waiting for their time.
It started a as a simple Sunday morning, in preparation for the upcoming school year and move. Kai was on a shopping run for his mother while taking a fancy look at the book store for a quick browse. The sun was high and a light breeze whistled a soft tune to Kai's enjoyment, as he checked his list over as to not let his book adoration leave him forgetful.
"Are you this Kai punk, my boys have been telling me bout?!"
A brash voice called out and halted Kai with the placement of a firm grip on his shoulder. An annoyed roll of the eyes already knowing where this would be going, head turning a ninety degree angle to face this thug and group of challengers. Being able to see right through them left the already obvious answer even more easy to see.
"Their something I can help you with, If not then I must be on my wa-"
He managed to take three steps forward while dragging the ring leader with him. Pulling that stunt wouldn't do anything, Kai knew this but was worth a shot at the very least. A sigh let out after this time being halted as he pondered why people insist on continuing this frivolous matter of meaningless combat with him. He kept on this cat and dog chasing game hoping that would end up boring those blind sided by his fake fame. It all seemed void and only further raised his reputation. A vein began to appear upon the hooligans forehead, pulsing rather quickly.
"I already know about your little wussy running away tactics, your not getting away from me and my crew here. Now why don't you face us so I can get a good shot of your face while we're beating you in!!"
The only thing done with that little speech was manage to get his spit sprayed on the back of Kai's neck. He reached his right arm back and wiped it with his sleeve. "Sorry but could you speak in a less barking manner, my sweater is going to need washing if you continue."
Speaking a similar line he read from a book to this group made him smile a bit. After that remark the three others surrounded him, Kai did as the guy said and took his sweet time to face him. He analyzed the placement of each goon and thought up an escape plan. "Now were gonna beat you down!!" A fist was thrown directing straight for Kai's face. Angling his head to the left and pressuring his weight on the left side of his body, he pushed backwards blocking and using his force to throw himself back. Kai then took this gaping advantage to retaliate in his movement now speeding into an alleyway, letting the chase begin.
"Darn he stretched out my collar..."
Kai let out in a light and saddening tone, going through alleyway after alleyway, streets and passing pedestrians no clue of his predicament. finally with a fast right turn out of the upcoming alleyway, he jolted right and managed to hide in a store without their noticing. Kai let out a breathe of relief catching his breathe and gave a small grin. "Shibusen better not be like this.."
