Twin of: Ronan Kavanagh
Brief Bio: Rory grew up in California in the shadow of his older brother, Keith, who exceled at school and sports. Not so for Ro' - his grades are mediocre, and though he likes sports, the only one he's good at is swimming. He loves swimming and spends most of his team in the lake or the ocean. Rory's father is a considerably wealther architect, and his wife a beautiful woman who was once a model. They were in love many years ago, but now stay together simply for appearances. Most of the time they fight, and also yell at Keith for not living up to their expectations and use Rory's younger brother, Fagan, as an excuse to fight with each other more. The middle child, Rory has often felt forgotten by the rest of his family, so he turned to daredevil tricks as well as the solitude of nature to fill the void. He developed an interest in art and grew to become quite skilled. He's popular among his friends and once had a girlfriend, though in general he's too flighty for a relationship. The most signficant event of his life occurred during a family trip to Ireland when he was twelve. At the time he liked to pretend he could walk into the realm of fairies and goblins, and once got lost in a cavern. For two days he was trapped in the woods until he was found, and upon being found, he noticed that for the first time in years his parents were loving to each other. As a result, his daredevil actions increased, since he realized they would garner a reaction from his parents, but consequently he's also hurt his relationship with them.
Appearance: Rory stands at 5'6" and has a slender, sun-tanned body. His face is roundish, with a snubbed nose and warm brown eyes framed by thick lashes and a constantly smirking mouth. His hair is blond and falls in his eyes like Shitzu fur. Usually he'll wear whatever is comfortable - often nothing more than a T-shirt and jeans. He keeps a pocket-knife in his belt and sometimes wears Nike wristbands or a braided anklet. His favorite form of footwear is Adidas open-toed sandals.
Personality: Rory is an all-round likable guy, decent and honest, though at times his frankness can hurt others. He's straightforward and up front with his thoughts and wears his emotions on his sleeve, hiding nothing. He loves to swim and be outdoors and also has a knack for art. In general he's sweet, kind and helpful. His biggest enemy is his temper: though there he doesn't have many pet peeves, he has been known to blow up at the slightest injustice if he's tired or stressed, or when he runs into something that really does annoy him. He likes to joke around and has trouble being serious; though he's a trustworthy friend, he's not always reliable in a tough situation since he doesn't like dealing with confrontation. Don't trust him with your car either; he speeds. On the other hand, he loves to cook. He hates sweets, especially chocolate! He loves soccer and surfing, rock music, and his favorite past time is hanging out with friends. He's at his best in peace time, when he can be himself and puts himself out to preserve others' happiness, but in times of crisis he is likely to panic and be no use whatsoever. (Okay, you can say he's a coward.) He doesn't mean to be useless, but he knows being a leader means making tough decisions that may make people dislike you. He likes being "everyone's best friend" so won't make the hard decisions necessary of leaders and strategists. However, he will always keep a secret and you never have to guess how he feels, plus he puts others before himself. He's a people person!
Other: And a dog person - he has a Shitzu that looks just liked him, named Honey.
