kendric tay tell me reality is better than a dream. general info
appearance At the unimposing height of 5’4”, few discover a reason to fear Kendric Tay, rather, they discover a mountain of reasons to underestimate him. Alas, foolishly placing one’s thoughts in underestimating the short man is foolish. While Kendric lacks typical height, the young man has a set of lean muscles and swift movements. Despite his shortness, Kendric can gracefully avoid attacks and counter with a similar amount of fearsome grace. Between his lanky and lean-muscled limbs, Kendric is designed for haste rather than strength. This is further represented in his flat stomach and well-toned, albeit, not overly muscular legs. Despite being one capable of fighting, Kendric’s skin has remained unscarred, most having faded through the use of healing. As of complexion, Kendric is notably pale, never being one for tanning or somebody to even tan well. Strikingly sharp facial features mark Kendric. His high, slimmed down cheeks leading down to a sharp, slender jawline and slightly curved chin are another testament to the Tay family features. Similarly, he has the sharpened point of a nose that holds that valued, subtle upturn. Although, overshadowing all his sharpened facial features is the head of striking, cerulean hair. The sheer brightness of the Tay hair colour tends to draw quick attention as opposed to the features of their face. The long, wavy, bright locks are a sea of softness and are well-maintained through the years. Sprouting from the sea of hair of dual shade, blue horns. The base has two pieces that fan out in a navy colour while the remainder stem up in that striking cerulean. Poking out from his thick locks are a pair of slightly pointed ears. Another striking feature of Kendric’s face are a pair of amber eyes with a yellow undertone of which entrances most. As an info broker, Kendric makes an effort to carry himself professionally to gather more business. As a result, many see the young Kendric Tay sporting semi-formal wear when meeting up with a client. Regularly, this is a white dress shirt accompanied with a simple pair of jeans or dress pants. These are the times when he is required to make deals after all. Otherwise, Kendric will wear whatever fits the occasion to gather information. He is willing to play a variety of parts from damsel in distress, complacent worker or even the casual passerby. When these rolls are being played however, Kendric always uses a disguise hex to hide his gorgeous cerulean hues. personality
abilities Water Manipulation -- Mastered The ability to control and manipulate water, even allowing the user to create their own water. In circumstances of fighting and defending oneself, Kendric has assured survival’s likelihood. In quick movements, Kendric can control water, allowing him to whip, cut and generally attack others with the use of water. When required, he can drag water from the air, allowing him to create his own water for use. However, in price for the creation of water, this tends to drain more energy from Kendric than using an acquired source. Due to his mastery, Kendric is capable of large-form manipulation as long as he is not required to create most of the water. Extreme heats can cause Kendric’s water manipulation to dry out a little at times. Hexes -- Mastered The ability to access a subset of abilities via circles made of chalk or blood consisting of: summoning, healing, disguise, sight & teleportation. As an individual in a circumstance of danger at almost all times, Kendic studied up on his hexes. Primarily, he uses healing, disguise, sight and teleportation hexes the most. Healing having a max recovery rate for 5 people including himself, the more people slowing the process. The severity of the wounds can cause longer healing times as well; these hexes require blood. Disguise hexes are among Kendric’s most proficient, being used regularly for the sake of information. While they fail to change Kendric’s voice, he has been known to still provide masterful performances with disguise hexes. When targets for information collection disappear from his sight, Kendric often uses sight hexes to locate them. He is only capable of gaining visuals and fails in the realms of future sight via hexes. Teleportation has traditionally become a method of quick escape for Kendric. The further he goes, the more energy it will consume. Summoning hexes are among the trickier for Kendric, thus he never uses them for the purposes of combat. Rather, he will spawn himself crows or other avian creatures to scout areas in order to gain information about a location or the whereabouts of others. While these birds can fight, it does not equate to much in the larger scheme of things. Enhanced Speed -- Advanced The ability to enhance one’s speed, allowing the user to go faster than a normal individual. Speed is crucial for instances where escape is required or quick reaction times. While occasionally used in fighting, Kendric regularly utilizes his speed to avoid attacks of retreat. Barrages of quick hits take more energy than merely avoiding attacks, thus he keeps the use limited to defensive at most times. Over-using his enhanced speed can result in side-effects of stiffness and/or soreness in Kendric’s muscles. This will slow him as his muscles are used, meaning over time he can tire and grow sorer. Extreme instances can result in stiffness or soreness for multiple days. Curses -- Intermediate The ability to inflict a curse on another person. As a precaution, Kendric avoids learning his curses intensely because of the legal ramifications. At most, Kendric uses curses to create burdens on those who have proved problematic. Consider it his warning. Some light bad luck to cause minor inflictions, such as stubbing one’s toe or tripping. The length of time Kendric’s curses last are a max of a few days, nothing beyond that. This is impart because of Kendric’s wishes to avoid enforcement by the law. Naturals: Enhanced Endurance, Underwater Breathing, Immortality backstory Expectation was a twisted tool weighing precariously on the shoulders of the Tay family children. A family of fighters and additionally high social standing, the children were always demanded to behave and never stray from the thin rope of what is expected of a Tay. An environment cloaked in strict regulations and sibling rivalry from the very beginning. Each child wished to shine solely in the eyes of their parents. The flaunting of grades and skills became a regular and inevitably, the only conversation at dinner when the family lacked outer guests. The Tay family was known for their financial backing of services such as the TRS and additionally owned a massive car manufacturing company. Additionally, the pair worked on the modelling scene for extra cash with the mother being known for creating fashion for horns on the side. In London, England, they were the type of wealthy people who many looked upon in fascination and admiration. Then the many children of the Tay family inevitably gained similar favours among the populace. Among the younger children with only 2 younger brothers and 9 older siblings, Kendric was one in the dozen. Despite the significance of a child’s birth and forming early parental attachments, Kendric’s earliest memories were residing in the care of a nanny while observing the vying for parental attention. He remembered it vividly how one of his older siblings showed off self-made jewelry to his mother or his brothers would learn to enter in-depth discussions about cars and their manufacturing with his father. The examples were set quick and fast, each being a hard hitting reminder of how vying for his parents’ attention was crucial. The older siblings modelled the behaviour with excellent and late night dinner table discussions cemented the requirement in unbreakable stone. The attention of his parents became desired in his youthful years, thus Kendric began attempting to impress them. He craved to be acknowledged by the people who brought about his very existence, whose power in the eyes of their children were mythical and unbelievable. He remembered his early years where his nanny and him would fingerpaint. Together they created works of art with their hands and a little paint. The words she shared in kindness as a supportive adult only pushed him further. He remembered the afternoon she taught him to make flowers on a piece of paper. A colourful, albeit, sloppy display marking the white paper brought for the lesson. His golden eyes ablaze with pride as he stared upon his art piece made at a meagre 5 years old. The time of drying stirred the fantasized beliefs of parental praise once he showed them the marvellous picture. The way his legs kicked in the chair and his smile felt infinite. Once dried, he plucked it from the counter where they worked while the nanny gathered everything to clean up their small mess. He slipped away, approaching his parents and holding up the piece with a cheerful “look what I made!” He remembered their careless glance, cold as ice as their words hissed out You could do better. The disheartened sensation stirred in his chest as Kendric’s face dropped. He watched their attention shift to his siblings quickly; meanwhile he was left upset and unable to enjoy what he did for the afternoon. It was meaningless in the eyes of a child searching for validation and while he received it from his younger siblings, it hardly lessened the sting. The arrival of school became a fixation for Kendric as he was thrusted into a private school at the demands of his parents. Education was crucial in their family and Kendric, as a smart, young child hastily learned how cardinal school was. Good grades meant rewards, praise and attention, it was demonstrated at the dining room table many times. Though the initial preferences were short-handed. Despite his pride in his ever-changing capabilities and the boosted mood from his nanny and siblings, Kendric’s vying hardly earned him anything. Rather, he would hear the snappish response on how his older siblings accomplished the task better. The frown that traced young Kendric’s face displayed his disappointment in his own failures. He failed to accomplish the simple task, thus forcing the young boy to delve further into attempting to gain more favour from his precious parents. Education consumed the entirety of Kendric’s youth. The craving for something simple as attention from his parents influenced his actions; a puppet connected to the strings of his wishes. The basics of childhood were entirely missed out on in favour of diving into studies and praying he could finally receive the well-needed hints of attention he craved. Though with every step, he missed out on friendship, playing and the various teaching moments of childhood. He was a kid worrying entirely about his position in his family at a vulnerable age. Each failure brought about stress as his parents insisted for a better Kendric could never provide. While no means being average in intellect, his older siblings long out-shone him with their accomplishments. The limited attention made his parents feel like gods stationed far above him, unreachable and ultimate in their expectations. Even as he stepped into learning abilities, Kendric could never gain the attention his older siblings received from his parents. They always had a head start. Through the years, Kendric seemingly attempted it all. Abilities, math, science and all its sub-breeds, but nothing would earn him a second. Even as he learned about cars and jewelry, his parents hardly batted a single eye at him. Never once had they cared about him nor thought of him, and with graduation arriving, Kendric felt as though his achievements were amounting to nothing. As the date approached, the attention was minimal with his parents only caring to pick out a suit and assure a supper at home, but nothing more. The ceremony itself was greeted with many empty chairs as only Kendric’s nanny and younger siblings arrived. The sight made his heart feel weak as the upset consumed him. The shining faces of plenty of other families reminding him of how much his parents never cared. How they stood and took pictures of their graduating children while providing buckets of praise... he was a little jealous... though envy shifted into resentment. At 18, Kendric Tay gathered up what money he could receive. The few gifts from his parents were a precious sum of money to begin the startings of a new life, and already he knew where he would go. He bought a one way ticket to Canada and packed a meagre backpack of items. He decided to disappear, knowing the attention of his parents was no longer worth the seemingly endless struggles to receive. Mere months after his graduation, Kendric Tay was gone from the household and on a plane to Canada. A child brimming with resentment towards his parents for never bearing him in mind. In their thoughts, he was worthless, a child unable to live up to the impossible standards forced upon their children. He grew up getting cold, losing emotional resemblance as every shred of pain over his seemingly forced down into the lowest parts of him. He would never allow things to surface, his blatant refusal to allow it to hurt pulling him forward. Upon his entrance into Canada, Kendric was quick to get to work. Never had he settled as he learned his skills and improved himself. He started out as a cashier, getting his first apartment and learning the ropes. He improved his abilities, later learning he had a knack for finding valuable information. He sold what he heard from customers, becoming a lingering info broker at first. Though, eventually his capabilities in information gathering emerged stronger as he nurtured it. By the end of the year, Kendric was capable in fighting and information gathering, allowing him to become a full time info broker. No longer hindered by the overly high expectations of his parents, Kendric Tay finally flourished in his new surroundings, shifting from the boy who once vied for attention to the man who lurked amidst the shadows and waited. misc Likes: Reading, researching, earl grey tea, butterscotch pudding, fashion, video games, monopoly, ramen, swimming, beaches, waves, water noise, early mornings, sunrises, scenic views, animals, challenges, cute things, writing, training, rain Dislikes: Stupidity, his family, lies, bugs, strong perfumes/colognes, extreme sweets, toffee, gum, coffee, sickness, gaudy jewelry, being underestimated, loud noises, ticking clocks, staring, short jokes, expectations Fears: Mortal injury, fire, spiders - He has used his youthful appearance to get underestimated before. - He loves listening to rain.
