Kale Renoff

Postby Kale Renoff on July 2nd, 2010, 2:33 am

Physical Description

Kale is tall and thin, with curly (and somewhat messy) dark brown hair and brown eyes to match. His eyes are a bit more slanted than most people's, and close together; he also has a somewhat large nose. He's not as pale as you might expect from a student, as he prefers to do things outside. He bears a close resemblance to his father, who came from... well, somewhere else. Not even Kale's mother is altogether sure where, although she could probably guess...

(No image here because of laziness. Also using the template... because of laziness.)



General Information :
1. What is your Name?
My full name is Kale Renoff... but you knew that already, didn't you?
2. Do you go by a nickname or pet name?
No one has ever bothered to give me one before. Besides, it's kind of hard to shorten "Kale".
3. How old are you?
I'm somewhere between fifteen and sixteen years old.
4. What is your height?
Um... 6'4''...
5. What is your weight?
I weigh 160 pounds.


Aesthetics :
1. Describe yourself as you see yourself.
Um, awkward. And kind of clumsy. No, make that really clumsy.
2. Describe yourself as others typically see you.
Probably the same way... I don't know, I'm not really good with other people.

3. What is your favorite body feature?
That's... an odd question... my nose, I guess?
4. How physically fit are you?
Not very, but it's not like I'm a blob, either.
5. How do you typically dress and what is your style?
I guess I just sort of wear whatever I can afford. Usually something loose and comfortable- tunic, breeches, boots.


Family :
1. Who are your parents and what are they like?
Well... my parents are pretty normal. They're sort of middle class; my father makes furniture and stuff. I've always been closer to my mom, though.
2. Do you have any brothers or sisters?
I'm the youngest of three; I have one brother, who's the oldest, and a sister.
3. What is your extended family like?
I don't get in touch with them that often, but I have a couple aunts and uncles. My grandparents died a while ago... I wasn't that close to them, anyway.
4. Do you consider close friends as important or more/less important than family?
I... I don't really know, I never thought about it before... I guess it sort of depends on the friend, but I would consider them about equal.
5. Do you treat animals like family?
I've never had a pet before, but I like animals well enough.


Location :
1. Where were you born?
Near the port in Zeltiva
2. Where do you live now?
Still in Zeltiva, although I have my own house now.
3. If you could live anywhere in Mizahar where would that be?
If I could live anywhere... as in, anywhere at all? I would probably still live here. I love it here.
4. Do you have a favorite place to vacation or spend leisure time?
I like spending my time down at the bay. I really like being near the water, it's very refreshing.
5. Where do you fear to be?
Probably a Zith colony...


Traits :
1. Do you have any physical weaknesses (disease, scars, and missing limbs?)
Well... not TECHNICALLY... but I'm not very coordinated.
2. Are you right handed or left handed?
Actually, I'm left handed.
3. What languages do you speak? What do you sound like? Do you have an accent?
I don't speak many languages- mostly common, and I know some Pavi. I've found a couple phrases of Zithanese in some books that I've read. As for my voice, I do have a slight accent, but I can't really think of any words to describe it other than... slanted. I picked it up from my father; he never said where he came from.
4. Do you have any odd mannerisms, annoying habits, or other defining characteristics?
I kind of stutter when I get nervous... I also tap my fingers a lot, and sometimes I bite my nails.
5. Do you have (or want to get) any tattoos or piercings? Why do you have them (or will get them)?
No, I don't have any, and I don't plan on getting any anytime soon.


Occupations :
1. What is your occupation?
I don't really have a job... I'm applying to become a student at the University here in Zeltiva.
2. Do you like/dislike your work? Why?
Well... I do kind of feel guilty about not doing anything for a living...
3. If you could be anything you wanted to, what would you be?
I don't know- I've never thought about it that much. I guess I'd like to be a traveling scholar or mage, someone who helps people.
4. What occupation do you admire the most? Why?
I really admire the people who can devote their whole lives to pursuing a goal, no matter what it is.
5. What occupation do you least like? Why?
Manual labor, I guess. It seems sort of... shameful to me. After all, there's so much more you could be doing!


Childhood :
1. What sort of child were you?
I guess I was the sort of person that no one really noticed. I just kept to myself most of the time, doodling and drawing things.
2. What is your favorite memory from childhood?
I couldn't define any one time, but I used to love when me and my family would go down to the bay and just have fun together. Those times were the best.
3. What is your worst memory from childhood?
I think it happened when I ws about six... I, well, I took a wrong turn and ended up in some back alley. I was terrified. Thankfully, a nice person walking by helped me get home, but I had nightmares for weeks, just thinking about what could have happened. It was pretty scary.
4. What sort of relationship did you have with your parents?
It wasn't all that bad. I was never really close to my father, but Mom and I used to have lots of fun together. My older brother always teased me about it, but... it was worth it.
5. Who was your most influential role model?
I don't know if I ever had a role model when I was a kid. If I did, then I can't remember it...


Education :
1. What sort of education do you have?
Just a basic education, nothing special- reading, writing, maths. It's why I wanted to go to the University.
2. Do you like/dislike learning?
Are you kidding? I love learning new things. I think it's great to find new opportunities. Maybe I'm kind of atypical, but still.
3. Where or how did you learn most of your skills/abilities?
Most of the time I just sort of taught myself- I would watch other people do things and then imitate them.
4. How do you learn best? I learn best when I'm in a group and I'm able to see what other people are doing.
5. What are your educational goals for the future?
I really, REALLY want to learn magic, especially Reimancy. I'm not against furthering the rest of my academic career, either.


Relationships :
1. Do you form close bonds with people? Why? Why not?
I don't know. I don't usually get too close to people; I prefer to be on my own. I'm just... not comfortable around other people. I'm worried that I'm going to mess something up.
2. Do you trust people easily? If not, why not?
I'll be the first to admit that I'll trust pretty much anyone. I'm pretty gullible.
3. Do you consider yourself straight, gay, bi, or something else?
Um... straight, I guess...
4. Have you ever been kissed? If so, describe the first time.
N-not really.
5. Have you ever had sex? If so, describe the first time.
Wh-what? Why would you even ask that? I... w-well, I... no, I haven't.


Drugs and Alcohol :
1. Have you ever been drunk? If so, describe your first time.
Um, there was this one time that my brother persuaded me to have a drink... I... I think I passed out. It wasn't entirely fun.
2. Do you like to drink on a regular basis?
Not really, I don't really like how it makes me feel.
3. What sort of alcohol do you prefer?
Well... um... none, if possible.
4. Have you ever tried drugs (mood altering substances)? If so, which kinds and what did you think of them?
No, I haven't, and I don't intend to try them.
5. What do you think of drugs and alcohol? Be specific.
Drugs... well, I don't really approve of drugs, they can have such horrible side effects and they don't seem to be very useful. I'm not against alcohol, even if I don't like it myself.


Likes and Dislikes :
1. What are your hobbies?
Uh, I don't know. Usually... well, I like drawing, so I do that pretty often... I often go for walks through the city, too.
2. Do you like to read?
Yes, although it's not really a hobby of mine. I don't mind the occasional story.
3. What annoys you more than anything else?
Probably cheaters... I really dislike seeing people being taken advantage of just because of their situation.
4. What do you find the most relaxing activity to do?
Draw. I really enjoy just sitting down with a piece of paper and making something.
5. What kinds of things embarrass you? Why?
W-well... pretty much everything embarrasses me. I don't like making impressions on other people.


Favorites :
1. What is your favorite color or colors?
I think my favorite color would be a sort of dusky sky blue.
2. What is your favorite time of day?
Early morning, just as the sun is rising.
3. What is the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen?
I don't know... I guess I could say this one time at New Year's when there was a troupe of Eypharian dancers from Ahnatep passing through. Their clothes were so colorful and they were so agile that it really was a beautiful thing.
4. What do you like to eat? What do you hate to eat?
I like simple foods with simple tastes, things you don't really need to think about. I especially like seafood, although I hate things that are sophisticated or crunchy.
5. What is your favorite type of weather? Does any kind scare you?
I like cool, clear days in early Spring when everything is quiet and growing. I'm not that fond of thunderstorms; I'm always worried that the lightning is going to hit something.


Outlook :
1. Are you optimistic or pessimistic?
I don't really know. I guess if you asked me whether the glass was half empty or half full, I would ask what was in the glass. I like to think of myself as an optimist, though.
2. What are your religious views?
I don't really believe in "gods" or anything. I think that there's a scientific explanation for anything- after all, look at the advances that we've made so far!
3. Would you be able to kill?
No... no, I really don't think I would be able to, unless it was to save myself or someone I loved from the person who threatened them. And then I probably wouldn't kill them, just... knock them out or something.
4. What are your views on sex?
U-um... really, do you have to ask these kinds of questions?
5. What, in your opinion, makes a successful life?
Having done what you wanted to do and helped others while you were doing it. If you've made it where you were going, I say that's a life you can be proud of.


Actions :
1. What is the worst and best thing you’ve ever done?
I don't really know how you could classify these sorts of things...
2. What is your greatest regret?
I don't really have any regrets, although I kind of wish that I'd been smarter as a kid.
3. What is your best/worst memory?
I... I can't really, um, think of any. Sorry. I don't know. Really.
4. If you could change one thing about your past, what would it be and why?
I wish I'd gotten to know my father better. The two of us didn't really get along.
5. What are you the most proud of doing in your life?
Probably having... well, having made it so far. I don't know if "surviving" is something you can necessarily be proud of, but I guess I am... if that makes sense...


Emotions :
1. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings with others?
I'm sad to say it, but... I'm not always honest with others. I like to tell people what they want to hear, not necessarily what I think.
2. Do you have any biases or prejudices?
I couldn't say. I've been pretty isolated all my life, so I haven't been exposed to that many of the other races. I get kind of jittery around them, to my shame.
3. What makes you happy?
What... makes me happy...? Well... I would have to say it's doing something that I've been trying for a long time. You know, succeeding.
4. Who or what, if anything, would you die for?
I'm not entirely sure, but I think I might die for someone that I loved... not if I could help it, of course!
5. What makes you angry?
Seeing people commit injustice. I just can't think how some people think it's good to hurt other people...


Relationships :
1. In general, how do you treat others?
I try to be as nice as I can to people, but I don't know if I succeed.
2. Who is the most important person in your life, and why?
Right now... myself, I guess. Maybe that will change sometime, but... I don't know.
3. Who is the person you respect the most, and why?
I don't really know. I guess it would be the professors at the University- you know, how they've managed to do so much in their lives... and now they're helping others out, too.
4. Do you have a spouse or significant other? If not, describe an ideal lover.
I'm not in love right now... but if I was in love, I would want it to be with a generous, kindhearted person who was willing to stand by me.
5. Do you trust anyone to protect you? Who, and why?
Not really... I know that I should probably trust somebody else, but the only person I really rely on right now is myself.


Group Situations :
1. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict?
I like to avoid conflict whenever I can... if something comes up, I'll do my best to run away.
2. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
N-no, definitely not. I don't think I have enough confidence to lead people.
3. Do you like interacting with large groups of people? Why or why not?
No, not at all. I like being by myself, where I don't need to worry about talking to other people.
4. Do you care what others think of you?
Yes, very much... I'm always worried that I'll offend someone or make someone dislike me.
5. What do you think of others, in general?
I... I don't really know. Everyone's different, after all.


Self Image :
1. What is your greatest strength as a person?
I don't know if I have any strengths... I'm willing to do whatever it takes to achieve my goals, if that counts.
2. What is your greatest weakness?
P-probably my lack of confidence...
3. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? I would change a lot of things about myself, if I could...
4. Are you generally introverted or extroverted?
I'm an introvert all the way, although I turn to other people for guidance when the going gets rough.
5. Are you generally organized or messy?
I'm ashamed to say that I'm a very messy person.


Beliefs :
1. What God or Goddess do you find most appealing, if any?
I don't believe in the Gods.
2. Which God or Goddess do you fear, if any?
W-well... they don't exist, do they? So why would I be afraid of them...?
3. Do you have any Gnosis Marks? If so, how did you receive them?
N-no. Although I do wonder what causes the Gnosis marks- perhaps extended exposure to high levels of magic, or something similar.
4. What lengths would you go to to please your deity?
If I had a deity... I would probably try to please them and keep them happy, within reason.
5. Where do you draw the line at pleasing your deity? What is too much?
Dying or hurting someone else...


Life & Death :
1. What do you absolutely live for?
A-am I supposed to have something in particular?
2. What is the best part of life?
Just seeing the world in all of its beauty.
3. What is the best part of death?
Uh... I'm not sure if there's a good part... the "Rest in Peace" bit, I think.
4. If you could choose, how would you want to die?
Something respectful, that other people can look at and have sympathy for. I don't know what, exactly, but something like that.
5. What is the one thing for which you would most like to be remembered after your death?
For... well, for being me. Maybe for helping people?
