[Character name] Kir
[Age] Unknown. Guesstimates would say at least five years old, since he stuck with Jing from childhood, to teenage years, to adulthood.
[Canon]King Of Bandits : Jing
[Point in time taken from canon] Post Twilight Tales
[Background]
Stole a link!
[Personality]
Ever since he was in the egg, Kir has been outspoken to an annoying degree. You don’t want to hear his opinion? Tough, he’s going to give it. He’ll say what he wants when he wants, and automatically expects everyone to listen. This kind of narcissist thinking tends to make him believe he is smarter (and more handsome) than anyone else. However he does have moments of humility – sometimes a woman returning flattery will cause him to pause his flirting and blush. However most of these humility moments come with his partner, Jing. He will often sing Jing’s praises, though only after he’s said the boy couldn’t tie his shoes without Kir’s help. If someone were to insult Jing, Kir would get right in their faces and tell them to take it back. He can get mean and snarky with Jing, but it’s usually out of affection and playing along with whatever game or ruse Jing is playing with. After all, every time Jing has a crazy scheme that Kir doesn’t understand, he keeps following his friend no matter what.
One of the biggest definitions of his personality is his perversion. He loves women – not other birds, but human women. Young and old (though not grannys) he adores them all, and will use every single opportunity to flirt with them. Each time he sees a gorgeous woman, he can easily be convinced SHE IS THE ONE! For example, when traveling with Grenadine and Sugar, he tried to convince Sugar to sign a marriage license with him. But by the very next story he’s on to a new girl, professing his love for her beauty. When female birds show them their affection, he is downright disgusted and wants to get away. He goes above and beyond whatever it takes for a good looking girl, including risking his life, or defying Jing. Even when he’s rejected, he still keeps flirting despite the risks it could take to his health. He doesn’t grope them or force a kiss – mostly it’s just verbal, though every so often he’ll slide a hand on their back or pucker up his beak. (… Not sure how that works, but, well, this is a comic book.)
Kir enjoys stealing things with Jing for the thrill of it, though he will lament if they have to lose a treasure, such as the Elixir of life. In that regard, he’s more selfish than Jing, though he tends to use what stolen goods he has as presents to women. But still he’ll follow Jing to the ends of the earth, despite being easily frightened by horrific monsters or thinking something’s an incredibly stupid idea. In one story he’ll refuse to use his powers of Kir Royale because of a petty squabble, but in another he’ll cry mountains of tears if he thinks his friend has passed on. He’s a loud, emotional birdy that cares for these things in this order – Jing, Women, and Thievery. If you’re not in those category, then good luck, pal, because he won’t be pleasant to be around.
[Abilities]
Aside from basic talk and speech, Kir’s main and only power is the Kir Royale. This is when he latches onto Jing’s right arm, and becomes a weapon. He shoots a green ball of hard energy that’s enough to demolish buildings. He’s in control of this weapon, and can refuse to fire if he’s in a bad mood. He also needs some time to recover in-between shots, at the least a few minutes. Very rarely, he has the power to temporarily give another bird his Royale ability – it is exchanged through a kiss, and then that bird can hang onto Jing’s arm and use the Royale. But in time it will return to Kir.
[Other important stuff]
While canon hasn’t really confirmed it, my personal belief is that Kir is somewhat of an eldritch abomination – no other bird has his power, and the only other creature we’ve seen with this similar power (A fox named Sherry) was equally as mysterious. He was able to willingly change his sex in the egg, and it’s stated he (nor anyone else) doesn’t have a clue where he came from.
[Sample post]
[First Person]
- What do you think of your home world?
Honestly, what is with you humans and the concept of ‘home’? The world’s huge – every world is! Why waste your life staying in one place? That’s why birds have wings, you know. So we can see everything.
- If you were to describe yourself in one sentence, what would that be?
Handsome. … Wait, no, I changed my mind – Intelligent. Wait, Cunning! How come I can only use one word?
- If someone provoked or attacked you, what would you do?
Clearly I’d have to deal with that birdbrain! … If, uh, Jing couldn’t do it. But he could. He would definitely do it first. I wouldn’t have to lift a feather… but I could, if I wanted to. I’d just let the kid have a chance first. Gotta let him have some independence eventually.
- Someone comes to you to ask for the time. How would you respond?
If they’re as gorgeous as you, baby, I’d give ‘em the time, place, and a nice restaurant down the street. How’s dinner at five sound?
- You're asked to take someone out for a date. Do you agree? If so, describe what you would do. If not, tell why.
Perfect answer. First, I would have a freshly picked bouquet* all ready for them, and along with gorgeous rings** to help their bare little fingers. Then we would take a moonlit walk while I enchanted her tales of my adventurous heroics! Then I would treat her to a delicious dinner***, and then we’d find a secluded little place and… talk a little more. If you get my meaning****.
*stolen
** also stolen
*** you’re kidding yourself if you think he would spend of his own money ever
**** they would never ever ever get this far not in a million years jfc
- Murder. What is your opinion?
Messy business. I don’t care for it, but sometimes some guys won’t stay down. Can’t be helped. But really, the best way to put a guy out of your way is to break him. The best defeat is better than any blood spilled. And do you know how hard it is to get blood off of feathers? Yuck.
- You discover someone stalking you. Do you call the police or deal with it yourself?
Baby, if you want a kiss, all you have to do is ask.
- Would you consider yourself a lover, a hater, a sinner, or a saint? Or maybe a mix of both?
I can be anything you want me to be, gorgeous.
- Oh no! Someone tripped and injured themselves right in front of you! What do you do?
I’ll carry you on my back, my angel!
[If it was a guy]
What am I, his mother? Some people are such whiners.
- What disgusts you the most?
A naked guy… seriously, have you seen one?! I needed my eyes bleached! And it was several of them… All naked, all flying and floating in the breeze, with their…
[He shudders, and refuses to add on. He may be too damaged to continue asking anything else…]
[Third Person]
- Someone is being mugged!
Jing had a knack for reading that Kir never really understood. What was so exciting and informative in there that you couldn’t find outside? So the two had split up, with Jing inside the library, and Kir yawning as he stood on the edge of the roof top. He still couldn’t believe their bad luck. Being stuck in such a boring world, with nothing valuable to steal, this was torture! He’d done nothing to deserve such punishment! He grumbled and smoothed down his feathers, glancing down at the streets below. Maybe there would be some beauties to play with.
He blinked once – was that – was that seriously a guy trying to take a woman’s purse? This was the kind of scenario that he dreamed of! A smirk formed on his lips, and he jumped off the roof, opening up his wings for flight. How dare that brute harm a young, beautiful woman! Did he have no sense of decency? That poor innocent angel needed a hero to help her!
In mere seconds, his talons swiped across the man’s face, causing him to cry out as he covered his nose. Kir easily caught the purse in his hand, and landed on the gorgeous beauty’s shoulders. He took a whiff of her flower scented hair, and offered her the purse back. “No need to fear, my dear,” He cooed, confident she was already head over heels in love with him. “That jerk won’t be bothering you anymore.” He wiggled his eyebrows, expecting a giggle – a compliment – a kiss – but not being smacked in the face with the same purse.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And when all one can think of is a girl’s beauty, he may misconstrue two friends talking about a snazzy purse as theft. This was why a deeply confused bird was now flat on his back, wondering what went wrong. That kid had better not laugh when he got out of the bookstore… though there was no need for him to know what happened. As far as Jing was concerned, Kir just felt like taking a nap on the pavement.
[Why do you want to play this character in Somarium?]
Saw Jax playing Jing and gosh darn it… this had to happen.
[Which rule was your favorite and why?]
Still the age rule! Always important to keep an eye out and make sure no one gets in trouble for viewing the wrong stuff.
[Any questions?]
Why is playing an annoying flirt such fun?
