Kayce

Hollow bones, hard head, sharp eyes, a reckless disregard for gravity, and a full name that's never used - that's Kayce in a nutshell.

Basics
Name: Ka'tirah Civel (much better known as Kayce)

Player: Crystal

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Nationality: None in particular - ties to food or funding take priority

Race: Avian

Physical Description
Height: 4" 6'

Weight: 87 lbs

Hair: Plumage is dark brown on the majority, with white markings on the underside of her tail feathers and wings. Lighter brown accent points run along the feathers from the top of her head down to her back and across the upper part of the wings. Beak is yellow with a darker streak across the bridge.

Eyes: Very dark brown, generally looking black.

Description: Most of her height is in her legs, making her torso look a bit short in comparison and dominated by her wingspan. Even for her age, she's a bit short and skinny, but most of her weight is muscle. She wears simple leather armor almost constantly; it's light enough not to get in the way when flying and isn't that much worse for air resistance than cloth would be. It's not stylish but it does give her organs some protection. A belt around her waist holds most of the items and weapons she carries with her. There's also a set of iron rings she wears around her right thigh and a tiny red gemstone pendant she keeps on her neck.

Personality/Etc
General Personality: Not very chatty, but observant, she's always on the lookout for things she isn't familar with. Anything exciting and dangerous catches her interest, especially if she can show off. For someone who seems to have no sense of fashion, she likes making entrances and looking cool, but she also likes plotting these out so they don't backfire. (though they still do sometimes) Sensitive about her height; she'll fly right up if someone's looking down at her, and tends to talk to people from on top of things so they can't do that. Curious and avaricious - sharing can be hard for her, and generally requires her to see the item as "easy enough to replace without help" for there not to be hesitation. While not loyal to causes or ideas, she'll back up someone who can impress or interest her enough, and often will hang around people just because they're different from the norm. If a job pays well, she'll see that to the end and work hard to get there. She likes having fun and will try anything once, especially if dared to. On the other hand, she gets bored easily, and asking her to like hard work for its own sake is like asking her to enjoy watching paint dry.

Skills/Talents: Able to do nearly anything she can do right-side-up while upside down. Very good sense of direction. Excellent eye for detail and a good memory of things she's seen as long as she was paying attention to them. Though not terribly strong, she's got high stamina. Doesn't get scared easily. Quick reflexes send her flapping away if she's surprised. Comfortable in the air - could practically fly through a place she knows well in her sleep. Will try flying anywhere she has clearance for her wings/body, even if it's risky. Has potential for some magic, but is untrained and can't use it reliably. While not trained in it, she's a decent mapmaker in a pinch.

Weaknesses/Flaws: Overconfidence, acting without thinking, talking without thinking, not very good at reading the atmosphere. Generally unaware of social ettiquite among most races, though she's spent enough time around humans to know some of the obvious missteps. Don't ask her to cook, she's terrible at it. Prone to brushing off things like intimidation or hesitation that would warn of danger. Tries to cover up her own limits by talking big, but can't always follow through. Gets thrown off by those who know how to push her buttons in the right way. Has no idea what to do when people are affectionate/emotional with her and reacts awkwardly much of the time. Turns grumpy if she can't be outdoors for an extended period of time.

Likes and Dislikes: Shinies! No, really, she likes treasures, trinkets, and baubles. They're all hers, gotten fair and square...mostly. Most of her favorites are hidden away somewhere, but there's always room for more, right? High-quality meat that's seasoned well, but still rare, is her favorite thing to eat. She'll gladly take fresh fish or meat, though, and it's a nice treat when she doesn't have to hunt it herself. Being able to take a carefree glide through the air is a favorite, as it happens very rarely. She loves hearing music and viewing dancers, maybe because she can't carry a tune. Being cold or wet is one of her least favorite things; it's bearable but not wanted. The only 'minor inconvenience' dislike that's worse is having to eat old meat. She dislikes being looked at as short, as mentioned, along with being pushed about due to her light weight. Cheating bothers her as well. Dirty tricks are fine in matters of survival, but not in a contest of skill. People who are always serious or cautious are too confusing to be disliked - unless they try to make her do the same.

Goals: In the long term, enough money so she can have steady shelter in a busy, exciting city would be nice, so she could have a place to come back to after traveling around the continent. Not many can say they've gone across or around the continent under their own flight power; she'd like to join that number, maybe even be the first avian to pull it off (and come back to tell the tale). Finding a competition where she can show off her flying skills would be great...but first she's got to beat her rival and master the trick that jerk used to cheat her out of her well-deserved victory! So what if they were only in the "youth" competition? She should have won it!
