[b]Birthday:[/b] July 30

[b]School:[/b] Mayet University

[b]Hobbies:[/b]

[list]
[*] [i]Ballet --[/i] From the time he was a child, King has always considered ballet to be a masterpiece of the arts. The strong lines of the dancers. The grace in which they moved around and commanded the stage. The sheer awe of the crowds watching them... After much begging, his mother enrolled him in a school where he flourished under the instructors, moving at such a speed through the beginner classes that he soon became the youngest in the advanced. Unfortunately, this haste came at a cost. An injury in his chest muscles meant he was forced to make the choice not to go professional. However, that did not stop him from continuing to practice on his own.

[*] [i] Equestrian Sports--[/i] After it was ‘strongly suggested' that he ‘retire’ from ballet, King searched for another outlet to devote his time to. While his mother wished he would pick something more mundane (like chess or painting), King needed something with more energy. While researching motocross, he came across a video of Equestrian Ballet. Two horses, and many, many riding lessons later, he now competes in multiple Equestrian fields.

[*] [i] Hacking --[/i] A 'hobby' most people don't know about but one that King developed when he realized his body had limits but his mind did not. Diving into the unknown triggered the same adrenaline rush that being active and outside did so even when he found his passion for Equestrain Sports, he continued to put this into play.

[b]Pros:[/b]

[list][*] [b]Everything in its Place[/b] [i]Meticulous--[/i] This might have been the one reason people wanted to work with King in group projects, and also the reason some might not. King would take such care in ensuring everything was handled almost ensuring the project’s success. As he has aged, this has translated into any assignment or task he may be given: without a doubt, it will be completed on time (if not before) and in the most precise manner possible. Just be careful if you ask him to double your work output!

[*] [b]It's all in how you are viewed[/b] [i]Charming--[/i] Gifted with words and taught how to act, King can put on the charm to impress or woo anyone he needs to. Polite, well-spoken, and gives off the appearance of being mild-mannered to any he meets. He has a knack for drawing people to him and making them feel important.

[/list]

[b]Cons:[/b]

[list] [*] [b]The Boy who Cried Wolf[/b] [i]Fabricator --[/i] King prefers the term ‘weaver of words’. Over time, whether to avoid getting in trouble with authority figures, to protect himself from harm or just because he wanted to push others buttons, King has developed the tenacity to lie and lie well. Through panic-stricken eyes, he can spin an innocent story into a chaotic event or turn something horrible into a minor moment with a smile. Sometimes one has to wonder if King even knows if he is ‘stretching the truth’ or if he really believes what is coming out of his mouth.

[*] [b]What's in it for Me?[/b] [i]Self-Serving--[/i] One of the perks of having people come to you to ensure something is done is that each 'favor' is expected to be returned in full. King looks out for himself and in agreeing to do something, he will expect something in return. It may not be today but he will call in that favor.

[u]Additional Question for Quest Characters[/u]

[b]What makes YOU a good recruit for the Dark Kingdom?[/b]
Who wouldn't want a charmer?
Okay, the real reason they might be interested in the connections of his family. Sadly with older parents, he is a better choice than someone in questionable health. The reason they may want to keep him is his ability with a computer. He'll make it sing.
