Kaine is gratefully a good 187cm at full standing height, which is actually a middle height for the other family members around him. His eyes are a grey/blue color, though one, his left, always seems to be lighter than the other. Growing up, Kaine was a bit awkward, because he went through a large growth spurt over a couple years but he's since settled in and has lost all of that initial awkwardness. His two older brother's keep him in a rather good physical condition, or rather Kaine keeps himself that way so he doesn't get his butt kicked when they team up on him. He also has a tattoo that rests on his upper back between his shoulder blades.
He doesn't put too much thought into clothing, he knows generally what style he likes and could probably pick out an impressionable outfit if need be, but it's not really something he worries about too much. If he had any real trouble he'd just ask one of his sisters as to what the hell to do. They tend to love dressing any one of the boys up, despite protests of many kinds.
Actually, once he joined the Antyros family, Kaine spent more time in his demon form than his human form. In fact after nearly a year of going straight demon, he actually forgot how to transform back, which is an interesting story actually. But he never really needs his human form since the family travels a lot and generally keeps to themselves, a kind of gypsy troupe if you will. He has grown more accustomed to his human form now that they're closer to people again, but still prefers his demon form.
In his demon form, Kaine is much better matched to his older brothers. When he transforms he stands nearly two feet taller coming just under 8'11''. His hair becomes a crimson color, tipped in black, while his eyes are an always different pattern of yellows, oranges and reds akin to fire. His skin is also scalding to the touch. He does have the ability make people immune to that particular feature though, letting some people touch him unharmed while others remain affected, which he's taken advantage of in many sibling wrestling matches. The horns that sprout up from his head are thick, black & red things that come up a few inches before curling backwards and molding over the back of his head, almost like a protective shell, both stop just before they touch his neck.
personality:
Kaine is driven by passion. It's the essence of what he is really. He's headstrong, willful, stubborn and generally impossible. He'll argue simply for the sake of arguing, even if he doesn't care about a topic one way or another. He likes to get a riled response out of people and is good at ruffling the feathers of even the coolest of heads. But his passion burns at both ends. He has this simple and yet amazing ability to inspire people. He has this way of giving out the craziest ideas, making people think about things in a different way, an impossible way, and then getting those dreams and ideas to not only be put in motion but succeed even. He gets people swept up in his way of thinking. He doesn't consider things in terms of probable or improbable. There is just what you do and what you don't do. There's nothing he won't try at least once and he doesn't hold back in getting, achieving, or taking what he wants. Like his pyro abilities, Kaine has this easy way of reaching into people, burning through them if you will, and leaving them changed even though most of the time it's an unconscious thing.
He's not one for word games and will tell you honestly, though sometimes bluntly, rather than try to calculate the best way to phrase something. He hates people who aren't forthright with him when he feels they should be and can get rather annoyed about it sometimes. He would like it if people always just said what they meant.
Kaine is also an addictive personality type. He can be addictive to those around him. He's a warm and out-going personality, without being overly excitable. He simply gives off an aura of acceptance and is usually very approachable. But, more often than not, the addiction is pointed inwards at himself. Like with relationships and other substances, Kaine is extremely susceptible to addiction of any kind. He's obviously very aware of drugs and alcohol at this point and wouldn't touch them if someone threatened his life, but for the less obvious addictions such as for people and habits, Kaine can fall into them quite easily. Sometimes they can be good habits or people, like his family, but he has to be careful as it has resulted in pain for him before. Which is part of the reason why he tends to be a little guarded when it comes to really getting to know other people. He can open himself to an extent but after that it tends to be a bit harder to get under his skin.
history:
PART 1
Living with his mother and father under the same roof should've been fairly simply. But it was no where near as pleasant as the life he has now. As a child his mother, a water demoness, lived as a servant in the home of a very wealthy demon family. His mother was desperately in love with the man who employed her. Of course, he was already married and had kids of his own. Not that that would stop anyone of course. In fact, Kaine's father was indeed that man. The bastard son between rich noble and paid servant is how his life was defined. They had to hide his powers constantly because the only Fire Demon around was Kaine's father and it was no secret about his mother's feelings for the man. He worked in his father's home for the first 20 years of his life. His mother was not a very stable figure, the woman was unnaturally beautiful, but extremely weak. She based her entire existence around the man who used her and honestly had no feelings other than the physical relationship they had. She used to beat Kaine when he was little, blaming his existence for why his father didn't come to her as often as he once had. Of course it wasn't his fault, but Kaine always bore the guilt. His father's real wife was blind and he had only married her because his family had arranged it. So he used Kaine's mother whenever he was bored. Kaine could not have hated the man any more than he did.
Kaine begged his mother for a long time to leave the place, to find work else where. But she refused. He could never convince her to leave him and he hated her for such dependency. One day he finally snapped and without telling anyone, Kaine maliciously sought out his father's wife and told her exactly what had been going on behind her back. However, she surprised Kaine when she in turn explained that she had known all along about what her husband had been doing. Kaine was surprised and astounded that she had known about it and allowed it to go on. She explained that she did what she had to for her own children. The woman's gentle demeanor made Kaine feel his guilt 100 times over and felt even worse about what he had done. He apologized and she forgave him, understanding what her husband had put both him and his mother through all his life.
After that confrontation though, Kaine couldn't stay in the house any longer. Just shy of his 20th birthday, the fire demon left. He tried to drag his mother away with him but the woman wouldn't have it and she actually managed to almost drown Kaine in the process. Unable to do anything else or help his mother in any way, Kaine left.
PART 2
With no money and no home to speak of, it wasn't long before Kaine found himself mixed in with some rather shady dealings in Ireland. Sometimes he smuggled things for various muggles and other times he worked in more dangerous magical circles. Fighting rings were also a popular way to make money and a human against a demon doesn't really stand much chance so it was easy money at that and he spent many years living this way. It was in these illegal dealings that Kaine first met Aiden.
Aiden was 'the boss'. A wizard in the magical arena of selling black arts to the highest bidder. Aiden was 22 and a genius at what he did. He was a telekinetic also and the first time Kaine met Aiden it was like oil and water. The two actually hated each other for a long time. Of course Kaine was 35 when they originally met but he still looked no more than 20 and it would be a long time before Aiden learned he was a demon. Working for rival groups, Kaine and Aiden shared many conflicts. It was until Aiden had actually bitten off more than he could chew and got himself in real danger that things changed between him and Kaine. The fire demon stepped in and snuck Aiden out of where the other was being held, no doubt for execution. Even now, Kaine couldn't tell you what possessed him to save the other's life. But doing so changed everything.
Their relationship, which had once been so violent, took a complete 180 after that day. Aiden's personality was smart and sharp. It excited Kaine's very being to be with someone who shared his love for living to same degree that he did. However, Kaine's mother had unfortunately passed a certain inescapable trait to her son, irreversible dependency. In the time that Kaine spent with Aiden he could not see the deadly path that he was leading them both down. Aiden was a good person at heart but with an addictive personality, just like Kaine. He always had to have more and Kaine would have literally walked through hell and back to get it for him. In the end it led to both of them being captured. In a deal gone horribly wrong, Kaine and Aiden found themselves on the wrong end of the situation and in one moment everything that Kaine believed was proven to be a lie.
Aiden sold him out. To save his own skin Aiden framed Kaine for everything and joined the other side. Not that it would matter in the end. On top of having his whole world crushed, he was forced to witness Aiden's murder right in front of him as it seemed the other crime syndicate was not interested in recruiting.
PART 3
For the next few years, Kaine spent his life in a perpetual blur. Somewhere along the lines he wound up working in for black arts dealers, specialty in potent magical drugs and ended up addicted to them himself. The nightmare he'd gotten himself into wouldn't be lifted until Moira stepped into his life. The woman slapped him around some, took him home, got him off the drugs and adopted him into her mismatched family. Kaine fought the whole family-lifestyle for a bit, not used to the kind of setting with rules and restrictions like Moira imposed.
But after only a year, Kaine had more than settled in. He wasn't quite back to the way he'd once been. That had taken a considerably longer time. Now, however, he can't imagine his life without them. With their ever moving family the Antyros clan has found their way to Northern England where a few of the children, including Kaine decided to take up schooling for the year. Though he really only decided to go so that he could visit the girl he's been seeing during the last summer. Now Moira has put him and Murtagh in charge of keeping an eye on the little ones too.
family:
Adoptive Mother: Moira Antyros
Moira is pretty much the essence of goodness. She grew up in a large family herself. They were all gypsy's and they travelled with several other families almost like a wandering village. She is a witch but she is also half faerie, making her extremely short. She stands at only about 4'1'' She is a very even tempered woman and is usually a quiet and gentle sort. But her adoptive children know just how scary she can be when she's angry. She cannot have kids of her own which is why she began helping/adopting children who she encountered. She is extremely protective of them all. It's unknown exactly how old she is.
Older Sister: Ryanne Antyros
Ryanne was the first of the children that Moira took under her wing. The Vampiress was 80 years old then but was malnourished and uncontrollable. Ryanne doesn't talk about her past much, but what is known to at least Miora is that she was made a vampire against her will and then left to fend for herself. She loathed taking human life and didn't do so unless absolutely necessary, which was why she was so sickly. Moira took her in, taught her how to control herself and use her abilities and showed her other means of blood she could use to survive.
Ryanne appears to be a very cold personality. She doesn't socialize much and even her own family she sometimes distances herself from. She's 112 years old now and so she's grown accustomed to her adoptive mother's habits for bringing new kids back. She takes it all in stride and sometimes, though she'd deny it always, she can be seen being a rather good big sister to her other family members.
Older Brother:Malachi Antyros
Malachi and Murtagh are Lycen brothers whom Miora adopted when she found them pickpocketing and thieving on the streets. Malachi is the eldest of the two. He was about 70 years old when Moira took him in and he's 94 now. Their parents were killed by hunters when they were very young, their' mom around 10 for Malachi and father around 20, and had grown up using any means to survive.
Malachi is definitely the bully of the two. He likes to use his muscle to get what he wants and won't hesitate to transform just to intimitate someone, especially the younger kids. Though they're pretty used to it by now. He likes to pick on them anyway though, especially Murtagh and Kaine.
Older Brother: Murtagh Antyros
Murtagh is the empathetic brother. He's 6 years younger than Malachi and is used to his brother's antics to the point where one look can generally send the older boy away, if he's in an amiable mood. Murtagh enjoys his studies and helping Moira out in any way he can. All the children are grateful for her taking them in, but Murtagh takes it to another level. He truly sees her as a mother, having no memories of his own. He is by far the most protective of her.
Younger Brother: Ruari Antyros
Ruari was the first human to join Moira's little troupe, granted he had special powers but human none the less. Ruari had been taken prisoner essential by some muggle group who claimed they were going to use Ruari in a cult movement. You can only imagine how Moira took to that. After obliviating them all until they forgot their own names and apparating them into the closest jail. Moira took Ruari into her ever growing home. Ruari is human so, being 27, he actually looks like the oldest in the group, when he's pretty close to last. He's actually extremely sensitive about the topic and would give anything to age at the same speed as his older siblings. He's pretty even tempered like Moira and often acts as a mediator between Kaine and Malachi, despite being no match in strength for either of them, which probably works to his advantage. They have no choice but to stop fighting if he gets involved because they could easily kill him.
Younger Brother: Ciaran Antyros
Ciaran is without a doubt the troublemaker of the family, giving even Malachi a run for his money. The young Illusion Demon is unbelievably skilled with powers and he's only 23. His family is almost afraid to think of what he'll being doing when he's Ryanna's age. He can be rather malicious in his illusions. His favorite to torment is Ruari whom he gets the biggest rise out of. Sometimes he'll taunt the twins, but they see it coming so it's not as much fun. When he's feeling exceptionally lucky he'll target Kaine or Murtagh, but he generally leaves Malachi alone and no one in their right mind is going to annoy Ryanna. Ciaran can be a good little demon when he wants to be. He's a brat but not so much that you can't tolerate him. He knows when to put a stop to it. He's also extremely cuddly. Kaine is his favorite because the Fire Demon is always warm.
Younger Brothers: Liam Antyros & Kian Antyros
Liam & Kian were the last of the humans so far to join the family. The only difference with these little boys is that they were not found by Moira, but rather Moira was found by them. In the backwoods of the Irish countryside Liam and Kian found the Antryos family. Moira tried to find their parents for years but no one has ever come to claim them, not that she minds. Neither Liam nor Kian can remember why they came to Moira, but because they are seers they believe they must've had a vision that led to her. But they were too little to remember what that vision was.
Liam and Kian are more than just seers though. They are nearly one and the same person. Their habits, tastes, attitude, everything is a mirror of the other. They are rather curious about everything and they love being around Ryanna the most, much to the vampire's dismay. But they are generally quiet, so she tolerates them. Actually, of everyone, they are probably her favorites. For teenage boys they really are quite tame.
Younger Sister: Anya Antyros
The baby of the family, Anya. Less is known about her than even the twins. Anya was neither found nor wandered in. When she was about 6 months old, the little Veela was left on their doorstep. This time when Moira attempted to find the parents she did find something. Not much, but there had been a family of Veela's found slaughtered in their own home 3 nights prior to when Anya had showed up on their door. Moira was never able to find out anything more than that about the girl and so she assumed it was her family that had been the victims, though she had no idea who could've brought the girl or why to them. But the family was more than happy for the addition of a girl this time.
Anya is a happy Veela child of 5. She's adorable beyond words and has each and every one of her older brothers wrapped around her little fingers. They adore her and spoil her, even Ryanne cares for the girl and she doesn't like children all that much, or so she claims.
