;; appearance
general;;
Kai follows the traditional enhanced scheme of vampires. With porcelain pale skin (already pale before she was transformed) and burning red eyes, Kai is of a thin and somewhat willowy build. She has an extraordinary mane of brilliant red hair, with a layered side fringe. At the very tips of her hair the hue darkens to an almost blood red. of course, before she was changed, this wasn't her natural colour. She was, in fact,a strawberry blond. But with no change, there's no regrowth. Her features are almsot elfin, with a full mouth and small nose, wide eyes that once glowed blue. Now they burn, the same as her hair.
Kairen, or Kai, is of the average height for a late teen human. She was never particularly tall, and now she never will be. This tends to give the illusion that she is somewhat defenceless, though this is anything but the case. With regard to clothing, Kai goes with a mix of pretty and practical, preferring to stick to what had been her normality before her life spun around. She tends to wear black miniskirts or skinny jeans, which illustrate her newly perfected figure, and hoodies. That's in addition to the black Converse high-tops, of course..
favorite;;
Kai does like how pale she is now, and her hair - she likes the way the two colours go well together. White and and almost crimson colour.
hate;;
Her eyes, frankly, scare her. They're still bright red, and she knows why.
heritage;; American (Moved to England, moved back)
ethnicity;; Vampire.
;; personality
general;;
Kai is quite an intriguing one with regard to personality, actually. Her temper is exceedingly quick to flare up and frighteningly vicious, not hesitating to spit out bitter vitriol, things better left unsaid. When angered Kai is bitterly sarcastic and cold, finally spinning off into a long silence. After this, though, she is generally rather apologetic. This is because Kai is actually rather upset about a number of things, and several things will cause painful recollection ..Although her temper is violent, Kai really does try to restrain it where possible.
Despite this flaw, Kai is actually quite compassionate. She has a good sense of when to speak and when silence is preferred, and will not hesitate to fly up in defense of someone close to her if she feels it necessary. If an argument is getting too deep, she stops it. If someone's wallowing in sorrow, she’ll end it with either a few kind words or a reprimand for blaming them self-whichever the situation calls for. This is why she hates ending the lives of humans, though she hasn't even thought of vegetarianism, as others call it.
To cover up her temper, Kai tends to fully submerge herself in the activities she's partaking in. She’s unusually hyperactive and energetic, sprinting if it saves time, a whirlwind of motion and energy. She will occasionally (very occasionally, mind you) get frustrated with the slow speed of things and say so-she is, after all, incredibly outspoken. Speed and energy are two major points in the weave of her life-slow and orderly proceedings make her feel contained and maneuvered. Spontaneous? Yeah, that's Kai.
hobbies;;
Kai used to spend a lot of time reading, though after the change she's been rather too.. distracted.
She also used to sing, for a small band - they didn't write their own songs, however.
Drawing, too - now these may seem to go against the grain of her personality, but Kai found it extraordinarily relaxing.
Finally, she loves running. She still does, actually, and does it frequently. But at a much higher velocity.
dislikes;;
The fact that she drinks human blood (But she doesn't know the alternative.)
Her eyes, of course, due to their implications.
The scent of humans - not because the smell bad, but because she can't resist it.
Kai has a problem with people who act superior, or patronizing. It irritates her severely - she doesn't like being told what to do. This isn't to say she won't listen, it just depends on the manner in which it's said.
Kai, sadly, has a fear of spiders - for a vampire it isn't a problem, because they won't come near her, but when she was human they terrified her.
The fact that she can't go in the sun near humans.
Kai has never been the biggest fan of classical music, it's too slow and quiet for her.
likes;;
Her music
Singing (But she doesn't get a chance to much anymore)
Snow - she loves the way it glitters, the different crystals are pretty to her.
Running, though especially in forests.
Her new, enhanced sight and hearing.
Rivers. They have an incredibly calm influence, she finds, and they're relaxing to be near.
Acting, she used to be in a drama club - she quit, though, when her teacher was replaced.
Fears;;
Hunting in public
Being discovered.
Spiders. And now that she can see them close up, she hates them even more.
Her family will find her. Which is unlikely, but it's just an irrational fear.
Never being able to wean herself off human blood.
Secrets;;
- Wishes she could find a way that wasn't human blood.
- Loves most parts of being a vampire, and wouldn't go back to humanity.
- Used to play the drums, and only gave up because it woke up her dad and made him angry.
-She was actually brunette, until she bleached her hair and dyed it.
- Not really a secret, but Kai is a shield much like Renata.
;; origins
general;;
Her history is fairly short, as she's only eighteen. Kairen was born to Chris Danza and Emily Lyssa, on the 19th of November 1990. At the time her family was living in New York, hence her ever so slightly, barely noticeable American accent. She was an only child, and her family life was relatively blissful up until she turned thirteen. Her mother walked in on her father in with another woman, fracturing their relationship. Kai was sure it'd get better - until her mother sadly killed herself due to clinical depression, by way of an overdose.
Maybe Kai would have coped better if her father hadn't been so seemingly uncaring about her death. In fact, within a week he'd chased up some other woman. A woman determined to drive Kai to insanity, it seemed - by limiting what she could do, via curfews and such. She was verbally abusive and malicious to Kai, though sickeningly sweet when her father was around. By the two month mark Kai was sleeping in the magnolia tree outside her house, just to escape the cooped up feeling beginning to encircle her. Her father barely spoke to her but to reprimand her, or ask her to bring him a beer. Be nice to Nicole, shut up whining, and bring me a Heineken.
Kai had just gone fifteen when her pseudo-mother and apathetic father made two ground-breaking announcements. For starters, Nicole was pregnant. her exact words were We'll have a nice new child - maybe he'll be better. That, and they were moving to London. For a teenager just going through high school, this is awful news. Reluctantly Kai came with them, though she was unsure why. Some sense of child duty? Probably just to look after the new kid, to protect him. She remains uncertain. because her step-mother just set her to work cleaning up this hideous house, gorgeous but so painfully fake.
Kai moved out at 17 - not officially. She just never came home. There was no contact between her and her parents for three days - when she was taking a shortcut over to a friend's place. There, something tough and white crashed into her and (or so she thought at the time) stabbed her in the jugular. Doubtless death would have ensued, had not the vampire (that's what it was) been distracted. Kai still doesn't know what by, but that there was a shrill yowling noise and a fire, a fire creeping sadistically over her skin. Three days. Three days she crystallised, and the fire exhausted itself.
Then she opened her still burning eyes to gaze at the leaves she was under, bathed in ultraviolet light and smelling vaguely earthy. All around her, sounds and smells.. Animalian heart beats, so many scents. Dull burning in her throat. Sadly, Kai is not a purist, and fell upon the first four humans she came across. next came her step mother. kai regrets it, but in newborn rage she snapped her neck and left her on the doorstep, before racing away to continue her life. Her new life with burning eyes (she knows nothing of her future, of how she'll change) and throat, with cold skin and glittering facets.

sample;;
Off another site where I play kai.Everything. Kairen saw everything, from ants crawling up the trees to motes of dust spiralling in the crisp air - air that was dripping with rain. Kai stared in wonder as light refracted off the small droplets, sparkling bulbs like natural fairy lights. But the wonder at every small, distracting detail, was lessened by the burning in her throat. Like swallowing matches. The (relatively) new vampire's hands flew to her throat, her glowing red eyes widening. No. She didn't want this, she didn't like killing the innocent ones. It was so easy, though, that at times it scared her. Such a simple matter to follow them home and drain them in their beds. At least then they didn't notice in such clarity. Sadness whirled to the front of her mind as she sank into her natural hunting crouch, meters up in the tree. drawing in a breath - scenting the air if you will - she froze, her demonic-style eyes darting towards a building to her left.
There was a sweet, sugary scent reminiscent of flowers that overrode her thirst and curiosity kicked in. Oh well. An excuse to save the human's life, at least for now. In just under a 76th of a second she'd kicked herself off from the tree, placing her feet in such a way that when she landed it was only as taking a step. Landing with a soft thud, the vampire shook out her vibrant hair from her burning eyes and looked for a moment at the building. The building, in which, she could smell the vampire scent, also had humans. A month. She was 34 days and 5.7 hours old, as a vampire. Chewing her lip with serrated, glinting teeth, Kai mused over the decision. If.. If she went in and unknowingly attacked one, then they'd all have to die. She didn't want to have police to kill as well.
Swallowing the venom that soaked into her mouth at the scent of humans and ceasing the influx of air that now sat, stagnating, in her lungs, Kairen began to move towards the shop. For some reason anxiety welled within her as she zipped up her Skelanimals hoodie, and pushed open the door. Her incredible eyesight was magnificent in situations like this - in the time it took the store-owner to notice her, she'd spotted the other two - but it was hard not to be distracted. Pain. Pain shot up and down her throat, lines of fire, searing, burning.. Her bright eyes widened in surprise but she forced herself to wait, subduing the flash burn with thoughts that that would come later, if only to stop the burning. She loathed it - not the blood, but the inevitability of the kill.
The burn was not forgotten, severe as it was, but Kai was attempting self restraint and so steeled herself against it, turning her attention to the pair of vampires on the other side of the shop. Better to not disturb them, but rather wait. Her eyes unerringly slid to them, just to get a quick look. One, pixie like in proportion and with short hair, the other taller with curls of dark hair. They were talking - of course, the words were audible to her, but she was distracted by the shop-keeper gawping at her glowing red eyes. "But.. what's..your..eyes..?" She looked up, refusing to breath for fear of being overwhelmed. Already, without breathing, she could smell the rich, warm scent, hear his heart thundering in it's internal caverns.. so deliciously sweet.. No. "Contacts," She managed to say with the last of her oxygen.
No, the man did not realise how painfully close he was to death. How every time he took a breath it was driving Kai to the point of insanity. Her pupils had widened and she was gazing blankly at him, refusing to allow herself the pleasure of the hot blood, flowing over his neck and - NO. Unclenching her fingers from the counter, which now had several indents in it, Kai stepped back looking frightened. The shop keeper was gazing at her in an almost concerned manner. Confused, the man whirled and vanished into the Employees Only room, thus saving his life. The alabaster pale girl, rings under her eyes and unnaturally pretty (with unnaturally red eyes), took four and an eight steps back, unwittingly towards the others, looked shaken.
