[eden .]

I realized I forgot a couple of things from his old form so I edited them into the new form. sorry about that.
it's really small stuff like how he's really negative and he can sing but only when he's drunk, so idk if this even warrants a post but I just wanted to bump, too, so. |:

Kai Nasporeth ∫ Twenty ∫ Single ∫ Male ∫ Straight ∫ Canadian/Dutch ∫ Other

_________________________________________________________________________________________

Well hello there. Good.. Wait, what time is it exactly? Anyway, I'm Kai Nasporeth. I'm a twenty-one year old guy, born in a Canadian hospital on the 24th of February in 1992 at, I believe it was eleven PM. I'm in college to follow the program of Industrial design. I enjoy it quite a lot I must say. Couldn't have made a better choice. There is a lot of researching to do about and when you make it in the business you will actually be able to make a difference. My dad didn't agree with my choice at first, but when he saw how well I did he started to get proud of me for making it this far. He himself is one of those guys to help huge multinationals get going again financially. Stays there for about 3 years and moves on to another country he got an offer to work in. This means I don't see him a lot, but that's okay. I'm content with the way things are going. Enough about him now though, this part is supposed to give you a small introduction to me right? I work at a small cafeteria as bartender and waiter. It is a job I enjoy quite a lot. It doesn't get paid much, but it's enough to get around, and still allows me to do fun things. As for my orientation I've always liked girls, there's not much to argue about there. Guys are fun to be around as friends, but not more than that. I don't have a lot of girl friends. They tend to eventually want more than I am willing to give them. I need my freedom. Nope, stupid humor, no whining, just perfect. Okay, time's up! Need to get to school again. It was a pleasure to meet you. Let's end this with my favorite quote; "All glory comes from daring to begin" - William Shakespeare. Don't forget that one.

ғαмιly мαттerѕ: Kai would have to admit he is born in a great family. His mom, Lucy loved him a lot. At the time his dad Alexander didn't have a job as good as it is now, but still made plenty enough to have a comfortable life from. That's not to say they were rich. His mom was teacher for the small kids. She absolutely loved to do it, especially now she had her own child to take care for as well. Christmas was always an important tradition in his family. They would visit the family of his mom every year to have this huge Christmas meal. He always stayed only child, though he had a lot of nieces and nephews to play with. They were never that close to the family of his dad. They lived too far away to visit often, and when they did no one became much happier because of it. His parents eventually divorced because his dad got a better job and just couldn't give her the attention she wanted anymore. She got an affair with a man who could, and no one apart from dad really blamed her for it. Because his parents had always encouraged sports, he joined the scouts, which eventually leaded to mainly the sailing and party part of it, and was leader of the smaller kids for a year or 2. Apart from sailing, he also enjoyed snow- and skateboarding a lot. When his parents divorced he had to move in with his mom and her new boyfriend. He was okay, was a librarian, and was the one that really got him into good books. Kai fell in love with them from the moment Peter gave him a couple of good ones. As soon as he finished high school he got himself a small flat apartment on the top floor, which he was quite pleased with.

brown eyes ∫ dirty blonde hair ∫ 6'0" tall [1.84m] ∫ 176 lbs [80kg] ∫ no settled style ∫ light skinned

_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Let's just go from top to bottom here. Kai's hair is best described as that thick dirty blonde most people would love to have but is always a mess. Even more so when it has rained. He has tried to tame it, but doesn't feel like putting a load of wax in it and rather just none at all. So that's exactly what he does. While when he was small his mom used to ran around the house after him while he was trying to escape from the comb, he now get's to decide for himself and only washes it. Ever since he had this long(er) term relationship he has a nice little beard like he just didn't shave it that specific morning. She thought it looked nice and so it became a habit of him to wear it that way. His eyes are different shades of brown. In winter they are a darker brown, while in the sun they tend to get a really light brown color, almost yellow. A very pretty color, of which he thinks is the most beautiful part of himself. His eyes don't give away too much. Something he has inherited from his dad. Usually he wears his glasses, because he doesn't see a lot without them, and occasionally his lenses, when there is an important event. His smile isn't that spectacular. He always refused to have a bracelet when he was younger and now has to deal with what it is. Not that it is bad, it just isn't all straight and perfect. As for his style; he hasn't really settled on one yet. He'll change regularly, and can wear a jeans and plain white shirt one day and the next day you'll find him wearing an outfit that could fit right in the latest fashion magazine. He likes to think that's his style though, something different every time. It admittedly suits his personality. They're never tight on his body though, so no skinny jeans for him. Because of his sensitivity to weather he always makes sure he's clothed to fit the temperature and weather conditions. He's got a wolf tattoo on his right calf, standing for loyalty, eagerness for wisdom, following intuition, respect for all and communication. He always wanted a tattoo, and when a friend he met on his rail trip decided to take a tattoo he just went for it. It was the best friend he ever had and never regretted taking it. He likes to wear one leather bracelet at all times and his festival bracelets with it. The leather bracelet he carved himself in a leather carving workshop he once attended to. Although his clothing style changes so often he has a couple of colors he always seems to come back to. Bordeaux red, olive green or several shades blue. He is 6 ft tall [1,84m] and weighs 176 pounds, which is equal to a good 80 kilogram. When he comes into a room he is quite good at blending in quickly so people won't notice him too soon. Of course now and then he likes to make a good entrance though, and won't hesitate to be loud. His skin is usually pale, though it tends to get tan relatively fast in the sun without getting him sunburned as long as he keeps using enough sun blocker factor 20. Due to him sporting quite a lot he's got a well proportioned, but not too muscular body. Just normal for his age actually. On his left hip he's got a scar from falling out of a tree when he was younger. He was really high for someone his length, and although a couple of branches lowered his speed the crash was pretty hard. He made it into the hospital without too many severe injuries. He also has a couple of scars on his hands from working with boats a lot. This due to being a scout when he was younger.

ι cαɴ нoɴeѕтly тell yoυ ι'м α lιαr: Kai lies to make things more interesting, not to sugar-coat things. He exaggerates funny stories and life events to make them more effective. He also lies to protect himself from nosy people who inquire into his business that he don’t want them to know/is not bothered not telling them the truth about. His lies about himself allow him to present an image of himself in people’s minds, that’s not true or even necessary, but very amusing nonetheless. However, he's brutally honest about his opinions and judgments. He never sugar-coats things, he say it how it is. When he lies, it’s never about what other people do or fabricate things to start fights or make himself look cool. The most fun lies, he finds the twisted truths and exaggerations. He bluntly states things. It sometimes earns him respect for saying the things other people won’t and sometimes derision for hurting sensitive people’s feelings. Although according to him showing sensitivity publicly is a weakness, he would never intentionally hurt someone he truly likes without a reason. He loves to learn about people's personalities though, so when he doesn't, the chance is high he'll use them to learn, get to know what their use to him is, and whether he can trust people with certain things or not. He doesn't really see the point in lying as a lifestyle, but enjoys a good lie. He's brutally mean if he has to be and has no problems upsetting someone if he's in a fight or argument. He's not a saint but not a complete tool either. He’ll help people and gives out compliments when he for example thinks a friend looks nice that day. He has nothing against lying to get what you want, but telling the truth is just easier most of the time. He's pretty open, but private and secretive in other things. He likes there to be a bit of an air of mystery around him. Even he knows he's pretentious, but through that knowledge is able to make a laugh of himself at times.

ғrιeɴdѕнιp ιѕ ĸɴowledɢe: Kai has a huge imagination. He has been reading books from childhood stories to well known books like 'the secret history' by Donna Tartt [Which is still his favorite], reads the science news articles and the newspaper every day, and doesn't hesitate to rent a book on something that interests him either. You could obviously say he is a geek, yes. A geek that doesn't like to play video games, but loves sports instead. Learning a sport well is the ultimate challenge to use strategy and improve yourself to be good without even needing a teacher. When the learning process goes too slow however, or something just won't work out, he'll get frustrated and angry, and his friends are the ones that suffer from it because of his sudden cranky mood. This due to him having been able to pick up things quickly most of his life. Giving up when that happens isn't the right word. It's more like giving excuses so he can procrastinate as long as possible. Although he hates it when his best friends are better or more knowledgeable at something he takes interest in than he is, he must admit they're good learning material. Debating for example is one of his favorite things to do with his friends. It sometimes drives them nuts to have a debate on so many things they casually say, and so have learned to cut him off when he starts one again. While he loves his friends he does need some time alone every now and then. Just some time to recharge and let his imagination take over his mind. He has to think about theories and world problems, but can just as well think of an awesome new product that he would like to make, as he studies Industrial Design, or just something that happened to him. Even more so than failing, he hates talking to dull and shallow people. People that have seen or learned barely anything, and will keep living their lives like that. Of course they're needed, but that doesn't mean he enjoys talking to them, and so he usually subtly finds a way to get the h*ll out of there. He's quite reserved around people he doesn't know that well, and usually observes them and let them talk rather than lead the conversation himself. Even though he likes to observe he is quite quick to judge someone in a bad way before even knowing them well, and has taught himself not to be afraid to change his opinions concerning people. He keeps his emotions to himself most of the time, but will reveal certain things to people quite easily. Not because he needs to tell anybody, but sometimes he finds it interesting to discuss how he feels, see how they react, and enjoys learning how other people's emotions operate too. He has no problems keeping his own secrets to himself if he wants to [Usually things in his personal life that upset him], but if a friend tells him something and he doesn't think it’s too serious, he will most likely tell somebody else, without any guilt. Although he doesn't like people telling him what to do he doesn't necessarily think he's better than others. When assigned a task he works best when he works alone, so he can procrastinate and manipulate as much as he'd like, and do whatever he thinks is best. He knows he could be a lot more productive when he would've been more driven and not such a procrastinator, but knows he is pretty capable when he applies himself, as he has learned from the moments he did something only because he wanted to, and not because it was an obligation.

ɢeeĸveɴтυrer!: Kai is an adventurous person and loves experiencing and trying new things. He likes reading or watching things he wouldn't normally. It’s a huge part of his personality. He believes new experiences are character building and detests people who don’t get out of their self-imposed ruts and try new things. He doesn't understand it and especially despises people who won’t try things because of some stupid fear they have. He likes to visit new places and eat new foods. He generally just likes experiencing the new and widening his palette. While he likes new things and going new places it also takes him awhile to get used to them. Of course it is great to come somewhere completely new and be in awe over all the great things, but really getting used to it is something completely different. Of course eventually he'll be able to adapt, but it might not be as fast as others do. Very contrary to his adventurous side is his impulsiveness, which isn't too high. He is one to plan bigger things out before going, to prevent disappointment. He generally is quite patient and likes to have things to look forward to. He doesn't like his days to be a routine, and when they tend to fall into one he likes to shake things up a bit. Kai can be both very lazy and active. He can hang around the house all day without ever being bored, but loves it just as much to do something active and go out.

ɴoт тнe ɴιceѕт?: He's not very sympathetic, really. Sure he can feel bad for someone if an important family member of them is dying, but not for much less than that. Sympathy isn't a big part of his personality, though he can be understanding. Sometimes. He does like it to help people, but doesn't go out of his own way for it, and tends to put himself first. People who are hurt quickly should just be more thick-skinned, and are annoying rather than people to feel sad for. Having said that, he's not one to ask for sympathy or help himself. He's usually a quite cheerful person, and doesn't like people to interrupt that mood of his. He is a realist with a slant of optimism and doesn't get hurt by others quickly. He has a lot of self confidence which is like a shield against insults. He doesn't worry a lot either, and likes to think in possibilities. One couldn't say Kai is aggressive, but that doesn't mean he's not easily annoyed. He's pretty direct with his anger and will give out to the other person. He for example can't stand seeing or hearing people eat louder than necessary, and can get quite aggressive from people walking slow in front of him too. He won't itch for a fight, but won't back down from them either. It's quite easy for him to get over his anger, will forget it, and go about as usual. Although this all doesn't make him look like a nice person to be around this isn't the case. He doesn't mind acting a bit foolish for a laugh, and likes acting like a goof at times. It doesn't really matter to him what other people might think as long as he is having a good time.

lιĸeѕ: Kai has a lot of things he likes and favors. First of all the color turquoise. It is the color of the most beautiful seas, which he happens to love as well! Just walking alongside the beach clears his mind completely, and makes him able to think the way he wants to, without other things trying to push their way to the center of his attention. When he was younger his mom took him to collect the most beautiful shells and pieces of driftwood so they could take them home and make something beautiful out of it. When he once saw someone made little sculptures out of them in a movie, no one could ever stop him to do the same thing. It took quite some practice, not to mention a lot of frustration, but finally he had learned a skill he still enjoys doing. Food and drinks can also be a great enjoyment for him. Mexican would be his favorite dish, as there is a lot of meat in it and is nice and spicy. Not to mention lasagna, and fruit juice, hot chocolate [don't forget the whipped cream and marshmallows!] and admittedly the famous Belgium beer called delirium tremendous as drinks. He doesn't watch a lot of tv as he rather reads a good book or has better things to do in his past time. His favorite animals are bears. They are so majestic and good looking. And admittedly, they really just look incredibly nice to cuddle if you don't think about their big, sharp claws and teeth. His biggest passion of all; ADRENALINE! Yes, adrenaline can get him all going. The more the better. He loves to climb rocks, snowboard, and craves to jump off a plane some time [parachute included of course]. He also loves the occasional photographing, and of course, one of his favorite past times he actually gets to do; researching. About everything really. Nothing more interesting than being able to have a well-rounded conversation with an interesting person. Of course it's also nice it helps him to be right most of the time [;.

(( me being the blind bat I am can't see where the pairs are .-. /I fail ))

[Cuckoo]

It's the third post, right after the rules. XD Just match the numbers. =)
And I shall give you a poke to remind you about our 1x1, because I am an impatient creature.

[eden .]

>> I'm pretty sure it's just the person across from you in the characters list, pie. ^^
>> if that's the case, then I'm fine with the pairing, myself. c:

>> ninja'd. nvm

[- serendipity]

if it is who your character is next to, i am also fine ;3 }}

[eden .]

>> should I make my character younger b/c all y'alls are so young ><

[Cuckoo]

I think your character is the oldest, though I havn't been keeping track. I know another person is 21, and mine is 20, though I think I am changing him to 21 as well. It depends on what age your partners character is I guess. Don't want things to get weird. XD

[princess pudding]

--> Gunnar is homosexual, by the way. ^^ It only says 'reserved male', so I just wanted to make sure he was paired up correctly.

--> Nearly done with my form. Just need to add the history and length to his personality.
