Name: Kaj Willow
Age: 15
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Hair: Kaj has short green hair that brushes the top of his ears. It is straight and smooth.
Eyes: Kaj has dark green eyes.
Weight: 125 lbs
Height: 5’6” (five feet six inches)
Weapon: Kaj owns a longbow that he hangs on his right shoulder. It is pretty simple when it comes to appearances. It is made entirely out of wood (with exception to the string, of course) and has swirling designs engraved in it. It is made out of the finest wood available and was given to him on his fourteenth birthday as a sign of becoming a man.
Armor: Kaj's armor is some hard leather that he wears under his clothes on his chest.
Strengths: Kaj is very resourceful and can make most of his necessities from items that he finds in nature. He likes things to be neat and orderly and is very organized. He is very cautious and he won’t instinctively jump at things. Kaj has excellent sight; he can see things that are very far away. Kaj is pretty good at using his bow, being able to hit what he's aiming for a majority of the time. Because he's been using a bow for so long he has quite a bit of upper arm strength. Water doesn't affect him too much. He also knows how to cast a few simple spells, and he has a strong connection with plants.
Weakness: Kaj is scared of fire, and doesn’t like to be around it any longer than needed. He is not very good at sneaking around and is in fact very clumsy. Kaj is also very shy and is afraid to ask people for assistance for fear of being laughed at. Kaj is slightly claustrophobic, and is very uncomfortable in small places, or places with many people. Kaj needs plants in order to use his magic, so he cannot use his magic in places where there is very little plant life. He is not very good with communicating to people, especially females.
Skills/Magic:
Meditate: When Kaj uses this spell, he can listen to the trees, the grass, flowers; anything that is a part of nature. He can find out information such as if an enemy is nearby, or something along those lines. He doesn’t usually use this during battles because when he does this, he has to tune out everything around him in order to listen to nature, making him completely vulnerable.
Earth Arrow: Kaj uses this attack to power his one arrow at a time with the power of the earth. It usually takes a few seconds for him to get the energy from the earth. This attack causes more damage than a normal arrow would, especially against someone who is weak against the earth element.
Kaj can also use the energy from plants to give him more energy. He'll only take energy from larger plants who can afford to give their energy to him.
Appearance: Kaj, abondoning his green outfit, now wears clothing with a bit more subtlety. His shirt is long-sleeved and light green. Over his shirt he wears a loose brown vest that he keeps unbottoned. It has an assortment of pockets on it. He wears loose dark brown pants with a few pockets. He now wears brown boots that made of leather. His longbow hangs on his right shoulder, and his quiver is on his left. Around his neck he wears a bronze medallion that has an engraving of a willow tree on it; it is small enough to fit in the palm of his hand. He usually has it underneath his shirt so he doesn't draw attention to himself.
Personality: Kaj is a very shy individual, especially around the opposite sex. He doesn’t usually like to talk to people he doesn’t know and tends to be a loner. When a stranger talks to him he usually has short responses, which makes him appear to be rude, when in reality he’s just a bit nervous about talking to someone he's never met. He is friendly around people who he knows. It is very hard for him to lose his temper and he is very patient. He doesn’t like to harm animals unless they attack him and is the same about people. Kaj is also a vegetarian. In his free time, Kaj likes write, whether it’s stories or descriptions of places where he has been. He also enjoys reading what other people have written, such as stories and poems.
Biography:
Kaj Willow was born in a land named Ceyloria. The land is divided into four regions: the Fire Region in the north, the Water Region in the east, the Wind Region in the west, and the Forest Region in the south. It was in the Forest region that Kaj was born, his home in a small village named Amoreon. The people in his village all have studied or will study some form of earth magic. In this village, once a child turns five, they begin to train with a weapon that they choose: a bow, a staff, a sword, or they solely study magic. When a child turns ten, they learn how to use magic with their weapon of choice. When a child turns fourteen, they are considered adults; they are given their own weapon and are allowed to leave the forest and explore the rest of the country.
In Kaj’s case, when he turned five he chose to use a bow, just like his father did when he turned five. Kaj studied how to use a bow for many years. He was pretty good at it, but it wasn’t his passion to learn how to fight. When he wasn’t training, Kaj would go off in the woods and read or write. The villagers thought he was a bit odd for wanting to do that sort of stuff when he could excel with a bow, but they left him alone, which was what he wanted. Kaj loved being alone in the forest, where he could relax. He would write and read without worrying about anyone bothering him.
When Kaj turned ten, he began to learn how to use magic. He had a natural talent for magic and was a fast learner. He learned simple spells quickly and soon began to learn harder spells. When he was twelve, he first performed Meditate; he performed Earth Arrow when he was thirteen.
At Kaj’s fourteenth birthday, his father presented him with his very own bow. His father taught Kaj how to make his own arrows, and Kaj was finally ready to leave the forest for the first time, like all of the villagers did. Before he left, his mother gave him a medallion with a willow engraved in it and told him to keep it safe, saying it was a family heirloom. Kaj agreed to keep it safe and left the forest for the first time.
He wandered around the world outside the forest for a bit and discovered it was nothing like his little village in the forest. Outside of the forest was an open plain with hardly any trees or plant life. Though Kaj missed all of the trees and plants that grew in the forest, he was excited about being able to explore the world around him. Kaj wandered around the plain for a bit until he saw Cereon, the capital of Ceyloria, up ahead. Kaj went to it, and discovered that it was loud and crowded. It was in that city that he discovered how uncomfortable he got in tight spaces.
Kaj left the city after a few days and returned to Amoreon. He realized that he wanted to go all over the world, and decided to be a delivery boy, delivering items from the forest to various cities in Ceyloria, and vice versa.
