FIGHTING INFO
Weapons: main weapon now is Caelum that winged battle staff (it belonged to Arialestro himself, but after he was sealed - Caelum was passed throught generations of Vento family); also uses as support - wing-shaped blades on his boots, whip with wing-shaped blade on its' end, two khanjars (Persian knifes), throwing blades. (has rather wide amount of weapons, but all of them are "light" and are not supposed for a close-ranged combat)

Combat style:
Middle-ranged spellcaster; prefers fast attacks.
Abilities:
Bewitch (huh, an ability to charm with his manners and dance in order to stun a person; while victim is bewitched - steal the thing needed or try to ferret out needed information);
Windwalk. (Kir is able to glide with the help of wind or to increase his speed);
Fair Flair. (One of Kir’s most interesting abilities is that he can smell mana scent. By smelling it, he can try to guess the humans abilities and foresee attack. Moreover, by analyzing the scent he sees the bonds between humans and their true nature. Now, not only he scents it - he is also able to see and feel mana flow around him and estimate person's aura.)
Accursed. (Kir has a curse mak, given to him by his dad right after birth. It is a curse mark that is passed from one to another person in a family which has its origins from a descendant of one of fallen gods of Aether (God of Darkness, Arialestro, also known as Origin of Radiance before his corruption). After full release of this curse mark the owner gets memories of all the previous users and a tremendous amount of mana. By using it and taking over all the power that it gives, user of the curse mark can revive that fallen god in his own body by sacrificing himself. Kir has released his curse mark, but with help of Mir Clarence he managed to seal Arialestro back in magic mana orb.)
Summon (Recently Kir has taken a big interest in Summoning magic; it turned out to be that he has a great potential in it. Now he has 4 summons that he uses from time to time.)

Special attacks:
Vento di Tempesta – offensive attack, uses mana. (weapon – boots) After a high jump in the air Kir releases mana from wing-blades on his boots to create their copies from wind. Created blades break off his boots and fly to the aim, cutting it. Maximum number of copies right now is 20. NOTE: created blades are made from wind, so they’re just cutting, not stabbing.
Mezzaluna – offensive attack, uses mana. (weapon – boots/staff) After a high jump Kir gains speed in the air and makes a powerful slash. If mana is added, he can cut trees and even rocks with this attack.
Elica – defensive attack. (weapon – whip) Kir starts swirling his staff, forming a sphere around him. If he adds wind mana to this, spells also repel.
Brezza di Marea – offensive attack, uses mana. (weapon – mana) A tidal air wave that slams down and crushes everything behind it. Can be mixed with other’s mana.
Spazio Infinito – support spell, uses mana. (weapon – mana) Kir creates blue feathers, floating in the air over the battle ground. By touching one of the feathers Kir can teleport to another one. People who get permission from Kir can use the feathers as well.
Orison of a Summoner - summon type spell. (weapon - summon mana orbs) Kir has created some rather powerful summons that are tied to his lifespan. Limitation of summoning is 1 summon per summoning act right now - it is rather hard for Kir to concentrate on more than 1 summon. It's the first limit. Next one limit is cost of usage - summons bring quite alot of harm for Kir. For example Kyrios leaves Kir voiseless, and it makes him unable to use most of his spells, dropping both his magical defence and attack (and he's not a good fighter in close combat as you know). And Kyrie's use makes Kir start suffer from internal hemorrhage. The “retributions” can’t be cancelled or healed or whatever. All the damage that was dealt by retributions fade away in some time, length of period of regeneration depending on how much practice has Kir had with the summon. He fuses his mana with their’s, thus giving him overall bigger mana reserve, but he gets tired too fast, and after the end of the battle he’s completely drained. Actually, Kir might even get drained or tired during the battle if it lasts too long – he is still not used to use mana accurately.

Peculiarities:
Rather weak in close-ranged combat. Kir is good in fighting with khanjars, but won't last long while fighting with a real warrior.
He has quite a good speed. Kir is a both a good sprinter and long-distance runner, although he prefers to hide in a crowd or disguise (that's the best fun!).
Kir gets overall weaker when sky is clouded - all thanks to Arialestro, who's sealed within him. So Kir has a connection with sky; the clearer is sky above him, the more powerful spells he's able to cast. And opposite - under rain his spells get much weaker, almost half as strong as they normally are.
Prefers to have a break between quests, cause he doesn't sleep much while questing. He gets tired easily, especially while using lots of mana or his curse mark. Once the battle is over, he prefers to take a good long nap in order to regain mana.
The tattoo on his right hand is a curse mark, given him by his father after the birth. This curse mark gives Kir an ability to use a tremendous amount of mana, but it also destabilize Kir’s psychics.


PERSONAL INFO
Personality:
Rather cheerful and artistic; Kir is a person who's not just interested in arts, he lives up to art. He's rather proud of his dancing skills, and is easily hurt when someone says that dancing is not for a man (or any crap like this)... This shyness and vulnerability applies to his height and appearance as well - as a half-fae, Kir is only 170 cm, he's slim and has delicate features. He's rarely thought to be a girl, but this problem is easily solved as soon as he opens his mouth - Kir has an attractive baritone.
Thievery is an art for him as well - it's art of disguising and acting, being extremely concentrated and cool-headed.
As he works flat out on quests (sometimes he's taunted for being over-concerned with job) and forgets about everything on work, Kir tries to be friendly, communicative and easy-going while having a break. He cares deeply about his friends but sometimes it can be really irritating… Once you are nearby Kir, he’ll try to feed you for sure. It’s his favorite thing while being with friends – to cook something or to make someone eat.
Sometimes Kir gets too fussy and that leads him to troubles; moreover, he feels really guilty after it and even depressed.

Background Story:
Once upon a time, during a rainy night, there was born a kid. Actually, no one knows, how a proud fae got stuck in Pranas, and moreover - to have a baby there. But fact is fact – after Kir’s birth he left, and Kir's mother ended up raising her child alone. Judging wisely, she thought that it would be okay if her son didn't know that his dad was a fae. So Kir grew up with a confidence that his father was a great sailor, who went missing long-long ago.
The kid wasn't really problematic, though Kir liked running/climbing/getting in problems with local people as well as other kids in their childhood. But time never stops. As soon as Kir turned 15, he found out that all of his male friends are already near 175 cm tall, and he's only 165. That confused him a lot. Moreover, his grace and sense of art, will to dance and craft, that were much stronger than of a common person, led him to an unmistakable thought about his origins.
Kir's mother had nothing to do but to tell the truth to her son, when he asked her to be honest with him. After knowing that he's a son of a fay, Kir immediately decided to find him. Eventually, Kir understood that he can find more information about his dad's whereabouts if he becomes a thief - and after long years of training and getting experience, half-fay boy grew up in a handsome young man, who's a good thief and informatory as well.
The thing that has bothered Kir most of all was a curse mark on his right arm. From year to year it grew bigger and bigger, with new symbols appearing on his arm. As Kir has joined the Guilds and had a chance to look through the biggest library in Edin, he found out that Some symbols of the curse mark were symbols of one of the fallen gods of Aether. Being extremely scared with such a discovery, he decided not to show this curse mark to anyone in the guilds and to hide every existence of such a curse marks.
Eventually, after he made friends with Mir Clarence and she has taught him how to use his wind mana, Kir decided to research more on his curse mark and try using it. He thought that this curse mark could boost his natural abilities, and it could also become one of the keys of how to find his dad.
Unfortunately, Kir was only half-right.
After activating the curse mark for the first time, he nearly went out of his mind. One of the features of the curse mark was that it transfers all the memories of previous bearers. After seeing how many harm had done the previous bearers of curse, he passed out with the shock, and the seal wasn’t activated in its full strength. After regaining conscious, Kir forgot all the memories that were shown to him, but he subconsciously remembered that he must not ever release the curse mark.
After a short trip to Nebel and a practice of his new mana skills, Kir calmed down and decided that everything was over and curse mark won’t disturb him anymore. Unfortunately, he was wrong, and during the Sorgund battle he overused his mana and let the curse mark to get released for a while. After a large carnage he passed out again and woke up only after a few days. He got scared even more with his abilities and didn’t know what to do.
Time went on; Kir started studying theory of magic and different spells, understanding that it might be one of his advantages in fight. Through his studies, he found out that the god inside him was one of ancient fallen gods, who wanted to rebuild the world but failed. Kir also understood that if he releases the curse mark, that god will become resurrected.
In order not to worry anyone, he remained silent until Roan, Mir's brother, appeared on stage. Every time Roan was nearby, Kir nearly lost his control due to rage, and fallen god took this opportunity. During one of fights he took control over Kir and made him release the seal.
Kir decided that he'd better disappear and die somewhere, sealing Arialestro with his death again, but Mir didn't let him.
With the help of Felice, Mir's summon, Kir, Miwa and Mir managed to seal Arialestro in a mana orb, making him a summon spirit as well. Though it helped young thief to guard himself from Arialestro's influence, it's turned out to be that they can't be separated - Arialestro has fused with Kir that much that full separation would mean Kir's death. So young man has to bear with someone else's prescence in his mind.
Not so long after it there came last battle with Roan; Mir got killed in it, but Kir didn't want her to leave this world for better place, so he sacrificed part of his health and life energy to restore Mir's body, and with help of Roan and Arialestro he managed to resurrect her. Still, Mir became half-ghost - while she's not touching Gem of the beginnings, she is transparent and can go through objects. Kir is rather depressed with that fact, as he thinks that it was his duty to restore Mir normally and he failed to do it. As an apologise, he made a bracelet for Mir with Gem of Beginnings, thus letting her to be like a normal living person while she's wearing it.
Still, stupid thief didn't even think about himself during that battle; after restoring Mir, as he passed her part of his health, he remained with a bif lungs injury (place where Mir got stabbed in). He kept on trying to regenerate, but failed - and thus, after fainting on battlefield of 1st round of GoA Tourney, he resigned from it and decided to search of a good healer. Ravi, one of his best friends, told him to ask Ophelia for help. Kir returned in Pranas, to Mages Guild, meeting Ophelia there - and not only she helped thief to cure his wounds, but she also took deep care of him and spent whole week with Kir, not letting him get into troubles. After such a surprising, yet wonderful acquaintance, Kir started concidering Ophelia as a good friend.
Still, Mir was in his heart. Knowing that being in love with Mir will bring him suffering only, he decided to search for the reason why did he love her, and try getting rid of that feeling. Kir went to Morrighan, who resided in caves close to Pranas. They made a pact - Kir seals her in the same mana orb where Arialestro was, and Morrighan in return looks through his memories and memories of his forefathers, trying to search for reason. It turned out to be that Mir was a princess of Eden, kingdom from where Kir's father comes, and moreover - if both Kir and Mir were living in Eden, Kir would surely become her Royal Mage. So the passion that Kir thought to be love to Mir appeared to be his allegiance that was passed through Vento's blood.
Happy with the fact that he can actually be free from his feeling, Kir got worried at the same time - that meant that people of Eden were searching for Mir. As he returned to Edin, Kir went strictly to Mir and told her everything he knew. Mir couldn't believe it at first, but after Kir showed her memories, she agreed. Soon enough, Mir left Edin, trying to get rid of pursue - Kir was right, she was followed by people from Eden, who wanted to get their queen back.
Wishing to help Mir, Kir realised that he needs more power; that's why he decided to go to Titania and acquaire "Caelum", one of 4 legendary treasures of Eden, which Kir's father had stolen from Eden when he got exiled. Ren agreed to go with Kir, helping him.
In ruins of burnt house Kir met Fate, fencer from Eden, who wanted to take Caelum back to Eden. A fight started, and who know how'd it end if Arialestro hadn't appeared. His prescence made Fate stop the fight and let Kir and Ren go. Before their ways parted, Kir managed to ask Fate a few questions - firstly, to ensure that Mir was really searched by Eden's people, and next - to know reasons of his father's exile, as Arialestro didn't want him to show that memory, saying that it was too harsh for Kir. The truth had shocked poor Kir, and now he has even more reasons to hate his father.

RELATIONSHIPS

WARRIORS GUILD

Octavian Engel
Octavian is a person from a Warriors Guild, so no wonder that Kir knows him quite well. They got acquainted because of Artic, and up from that time Kir met him once in a while. Octo-man is someone whom Kir would even ask for a piece of advice, as he respects Octavian’s life experience.

Adalward Niran Certias (Ward)
Another one buddy from Guild; Kir got to know him in one of fights against Roan. Ward is a good partner in a fight, as well as a person worth trusting in – he keeps his word and never steps back.

Nova Liddel Keiren
Ravi’s sweetheart; she is one of those few persona whom Kir started trusting from first word, believing in her as Ravi does. Nova made a good expression on Kir, being an intelligent young woman. Officer duty suits her well – Nova surely has talent of coordinator and all characteristics of a good leader.
Though now Kir’s trust is a bit shattered due to their last meeting. After Nova tried to help Roan and Mir got killed in that accident, it made Kir doubt her.

Eveline Lapeire
An adorable woman with a good sense of humor; she somehow reminds Kir of his mother. Every time they meet – why does it happen at festival?! – they always flirt with each other, though both of them know that they’re just friends.

Iorish Quiwyn
Faery whom Kir was helping to search for her lost sister; Kir loves training with her, as well as just chatting. Being the one who saved her on battlefield, Kir has quite a strong bond with her – they understand each other from a single word.

Azure Lavovive
Friend from Guilds. Kir used to go on different quests with her before Sorgund. He hadn’t heard much of her in recent days as they haven’t met in a while…

Faylen Lindberg
Main reason of why did Kir join the Guilds. They used to travel together, and Faylen is one of Kir’s best friends. He also knows her secret about cross-dressing, but doesn’t pay much attention to it.

Ravi A. Virtuse
Kir’s best friend; being polar opposite to calm and silent Ravi, Kir doesn’t know a person who could be a better partner for him. Reason of their friendship at first were birds only; it took a while for Kir to build confidence in that man, but it was worth it. Ravi always helps Kir in any kind of situation if he’s around, and Kir tries to answer with the same kindness.

Glen
Leading Officer of Guild; a bit clumsy and naïve buddy whom Kir cherishes for his kindness and friendliness. Though Kir feels something else under cover of goodness…

Maartin Silice
Sweet girl that helped him to get used to Guilds as he just rolled in. Maartin is as kindhearted as Glen is; Kir wants to find a way of how to break her curse.

Nathaniel (Ira)
“Allmighty birdy”, as Kir calls him. Jerkish Guildmaster, who uses every chance to get rid of paperwork and disappear somewhere (usually – to see his brother). Still, Kir admires him for being a good warrior and leader.

MAGES GUILD

Asheal
One of Kir’s acquaintances from Mages Guild. Back when Kir had problems with Arialestro, it turned out to be that Asheal was also possessed by a spirit, who seemed to know Arialestro. It is still a secret for Kir of where did Ash get spirit.

Lorren Stello
Another one best friend of Kir; actually, he considers Ren to be his younger brother, as they have some similarities. They got acquainted just when Ren entered the Guild; Kir wanted to be friends with Ren in order to prevent himself from hating young mage for being so close with Mir. Now, they’re really close friends; Kir will do anything to help Ren.

Arkan
Strange guy who seems to be possessing strange powers. Kir has seen him a few times in battle; Arkan also helped Kir after he got beaten up by Roan, by taking thief to hospital.

Eilwen Celebri
Kir knows that Miwa, one of his spirits, holds quite a close relationship with Eilwen. They travel together and Eilwen helps Miwa to evolve, which makes Kir quite happy.

Ophelia
Kir knows her thanks to Ravi; actually, they didn’t have many meeting before, but now Kir spends quite a lot of time with Ophelia as others are busy with tourney or with their own business. She is really nice girl, and it turned out to be that they share some similarities.

Mir Clarence
Kir’s first real love; he was truly passionate towards her. He is ready to give his life away in order to save her, if it’s needed. Once he has already sacrificed his health and life energy in order to do it. Still, Kir isn’t her lover; his best friend, Ren, is the person whom Mir loves.
Recently, it has appeared to be that Kir and Mir share a bit different bond, than just feelings, as Kir used to think… As Kir's father used to serve under rule of Mir's parents - and actually his forefathers had beed serving to Mir's family for centuries - Kir has inherited his sworn loyalty towards Mir, mistaking it for being in love the whole time.


THIEVES GUILD

Artic Shiu
Daughter of demon wolves; she used to be scared of Kir, feeling Arialestro inside him, but now she is okay with him being around. Kir helped her a few times to get rid of Claw, his brother.

Ethea Hyllein Noruith Evana
Ward’s sweetheart; Ethea is also Mir’s sister, so Kir respects her and ready to take care of her if anything happens.
Not so long ago Kir revealed that he and Ethea were acquainted in childhood and had quite good relationship back then.

Larchxas
Cheerful thief with whom Kir had spent quite a lot of time after entering Guilds; they were good friends up until Sorgund; Kir lost track of Larchie back then, and met him again only on tourney.

Zenya Myraga
Kir thinks of her as of his younger sister; Zen is cute and clever girl that cares a lot about Kir. She was his main support when Kir nearly went mad because of Arialestro. Luckily, Ari saw in girl image of Pandora, thus letting her to calm him down and seal.

Vice Eirwen and Shiro
Couple of lovers who used to help Kir when he just entered Guilds. These two thieves always dragged him in adventures; now Kir remembers it with sly smile.

Mairitti Calnes
Leader of Thieves Guild; one of the most respected persons for Kir. She helped him a bit in the beginning and sometimes hid him from Ira’s rage. Mai was also the person who helped Kir making a good informants net in Edin.

SPIRITS

Arialestro (Fallen God/God of Darkness; previously called Origin of Radiance and Seeker of Balance)
Pandora and Arialestro were higher Gods of Aether, who ruled over the land and sky of it. But over some time, Arialestro realised that people, instead of living peacefully, started wars, conflicts and so on. Pandora, who was taking care over people, started to get tired, but still kept on helping them.
Arialestro, seing his only true friend, and person who was close to him for centuries, decided to change the world and make it ideal. When Pandora found out that Arialestro started eradicating humanity in order to replace them with better beings, she tried to stop him, but he didn't listen, thinking that Pandora doesn't understand him. So the war between gods started. Noone really knows what's happened for sure, but one is clear - Pandora has defeated Arialestro and sealed him into a body of a wind faery, court mage of Eden. She asked him to keep Arialestro under a seal and never let him out - Pandora just couldn't kill a person who was her friend for so many years, even though he has started a war against her. Then, she disappeared as well, leaving rule over Aether to lesser gods. Centuries have passed, and Arialestro is now a fallen god who is sealed within a mere half-faery, Kir; Pandora is a contract summon under command of Roan, Mir's brother.
Arialestro was passed from one member of Vento family to another through many generations. As nearly no one released curse mark, he spent all these years in a slumber, hoping that once he’ll be able to get out of his prison. He got his lucky chance when Lleu, Kir’s father, released curse mark and awakened Arialestro. Still, Lleu was clever enough to understand that if he wastes time, then Arialestro will take over him. So he passed curse mark to his bastard child, Kir.
Arialestro had to wait another 19 years before Kir released seal. He started haunting guy and influencing on his mind. A few times Arialestro got close to breaking him, but Kir managed to stop him every time due to promise to Mir not to die (that’s from where he got cuts on wrist – while trying to escape from Ari’s torment, Kir cut his hands in order to get back to reality). Still, breaking Kir was not his real purpose – Arialestro started fusing already with him after the seal was released.
Nevertheless, Fallen God was sealed once more, and Kir took control over him. He still fears Ari, but can’t get separated with him – because of fuse, Kir’s body will die without that part that Arialestro has influenced on. So now Ari thinks of new plans of how to use Kir.

Morrighan
Arialestro’s ally, and, as it appeared to be, his lover. Kir first met her as a ghost who tried to possess Mir; later, he came back in her cave to ask Morrighan for help - she wanted her to help him sort out his attitude to Mir by looking in Kir's inner space. It was Morrighan who'd revealed to Kir that he was to become Mir's servant if she was a queen.

Miwa (Sanctus), Kyrie and Kyrios
Kir’s spirits; Kyrie and Kyrios were created by him with from mana orbs that he obtained while traveling with Zeniya.
Miwa was originally created by another summoner mage; his master died in a fight with someone, leaving unexperienced spirit all alone in forest. Not willing to die, Miwa linked himself to forest and lived guarding it until he met Kir. Kir took him home, letting him guard it. After some time, when Kir understood that he has talent of Creator, Miwa offered his new master to be his first experiment. Kir changed Miwa, making him a summon spirit.


OTHERS

Lleuthanial Vento (Lleu)
Kir’s father; person, whom he hates a lot. Kir’s dad left him after he was born, leaving his mother alone with a cursed child. Kir thinks that he’s an awful coward.
Lleu once served under rule of Mir’s family reign; still, he was exiled for killing one of state counselors, who made him activate curse mark. Lleu escaped with his family to Titania; he was going to raise up his kids (daughter and son), but realized that he was too weak to oppose Arialestro. So, Llleu went to Pranas and made there a child, leaving curse mark to him. Only after years (and death of daughter) he realized of how important Kir was to him; but he still doesn’t want to get in his sight.

Larina Talahar
Kir’s mother. One of the most precious persons in his life, who gave him birth and protected from Priests Guild, while he was growing up. Larina is still young and beautiful woman who now lives as she wants – her darling child taught her that she needed to enjoy her life as well.
Larina owns a big inn in Pranas, “Jewelled Anchor”.

Llathaniel Vento (Claw)
Kir’s stepbrother, eldest son of Lleu. One of most scary mercenaries in Aether; still, he’s sometimes nothing else but a silly kid. Kir doesn’t like him at all for threatening his friends and for taking father’s love.

Talila (Lila) and Rakshi
Two kids whom Kir has saved long time ago; they turn out to know quite a lot about the place from where Kir’s father is, and so they call him “young master” and obey every his command. They are really loyal to Kir, sometimes making him a bit nervous with this loyalty.
