Difference between revisions of "Kyo Taimiev"

"I will do what you won't. That's why I will always win."

A student of the six-year medical program at Fra Mauro University, Kyo Enda is known to the world at large primarily as a prodigy in the areas of mathematics and medical engineering: a young man who, like many historical stories of youthful geniuses, has succeeded despite rumors of a broken home and an unsupportive family. Though he was once known as a womanizer-- particularly in his "golden boy" high school days-- he has suddenly abandoned his flirtatious ways, perhaps sobered by time and too many breakups. That is about all the average person will know about Kyo; however, those tapped into the supernatural grapevines may hear much more sinister things about him: things involving emotional and physical rape, murder, and cannibalistic acts.

• Kyo can be clinically diagnosed as a sociopath. You can guess how well all most of his social links are going to turn out!!
• Kyo is fond of the color white, which is highly inauspicious given the connotations white has in Japanese culture. But he doesn't care!!
• Most people detect Resonance through an ineffable sixth sense. Some people register Resonance through their sense of smell, or their sense of hearing. Kyo detects Resonance through his sense of taste. Usually he does this the same way snakes taste air. ...Sometimes he does it much more personally.
• Kyo comes from an upper middle-class family, albeit a broken one. His parents recently finalized a divorce, with his mother taking custody of his twin Akatsuki, and his father retaining custody of him.
• His father is a workaholic salaryman who is almost never at home: this makes for a healthy bank account, but a very out-of-control son.
• Kyo is a very good archer, which was highly ironic back when his Persona was still Achilles.
• Kyo is extremely intelligent, with an excellent intuitive grasp of most things. He is able to learn concepts and skills far faster than the norm, though his short attention span often results in him losing interest in whatever he's learned as soon as he masters it.
• The above, coupled with a sociopathic nature that spends the majority of its time in isolated self-absorption, means Kyo has learned a wide variety of skills and information in his copious free time. Other than fluency in the obvious Japanese and English, he has learned Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Russian 'for fun,' at varying levels of proficiency. He has begun messing with Chechen for "reasons."
• He has toyed on some level with most instruments, though his preference is for the piano.
• Despite all this, his basic nature makes him absolutely AWFUL at chess and other games that tend to reward conservative strategy and a healthy sense of risk vs. reward.
• Kyo transferred to Fra Mauro after doing his first year at Sumaru. While at Sumaru his major was biomedical engineering; due to a shift in interest, he took and obliterated the entrance exams to get into Fra Mauro's six-year medical program instead.
• He devotes some of his time to assisting professors in medical research: particularly cancer research.
• Kyo can cook. WHAT he tends to cook is another matter entirely.

The serpent said to the woman, "You will not die. For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

Kyo willingly accepted his Shadow after being pushed into the Inaba Midnight Channel. It has ultimately settled on a form reflective both of his nature as a psychopath-- a type of human seemingly engineered by nature specifically to prey upon other humans-- and of his predilection for corrupting, luring, and seducing others, particularly women.

The ancient Serpent of Genesis was the instigator of man's Fall, and the reason all are born with original sin. Endlessly cunning, it led Eve astray, and induced her to take what God had expressly forbidden her. Though Adam and Eve did indeed gain knowledge by the Serpent's deception, the knowledge they attained came with the loss of their innocence, and they were banished from the Garden of Eden.

SHAPE: A pitch black snake similar in appearance to a hoodless king cobra, varying in size from 'monstrous' to 'something you might find in your garden.' The latter is, for obvious reasons, extremely infrequently seen.

RESONANCE: A pervasive aura comprised of whatever most tempts the person detecting it.

Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, 'You shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?"
