Kyle "Ky" Johannes

Race: Human

Backstory:
Ky grew up on his own, mostly. He was raised by a single parent, and often had to make do with less. Despite hard times, he maintained an optimistic spirit, and eventually took the risk of joining a startup game company as a game designer. He ended up renting a house with two of his old friends, Jo and Julien, after his parent died.

Strengths/Weaknesses:
+ Very loyal to friends
+ Strategic mind
* Curious
- Often conflicted
- Doesn't tend to take authority seriously
- No fighting experience

Appearance:

Ky has an average build, a bit shorter than normal (about 5'7). His skin is fair, more golden than peach, and his straight black hair is kept at about chin length. He's got a perpetual five-o'clock shadow, it seems. His almond-shaped eyes are golden brown, and his face is sharp and strong-looking. He wears braces. He usually wears a plain white t-shirt and cargo pants, and black sneakers.

Personality:
Ky is rarely seen without a smile, and tries to be optimistic, though he understands many of life's harsh realities. He's very curious, always wanting to know and understand more about the place he finds himself in. At the same time, he's perfectly content to spend all day on the computer or with a book in front of him. He's ambivalent toward authority, but intensely loyal to his friends, valuing them over most anything else, and would go to great lengths to protect them. He's very physically affectionate, often hugging or touching, and can sometimes become attached to people he just met. He has a strategic mind and sometimes finds himself conflicted, as the logical side of his mind disagrees with his loyalty and compassion.

Activated Form

Name: Johannus

Innate:
- Centaur form. In this form, Johannus's horse half is black with white socks and thick, furred hooves. He always keeps the tail, though it's shorter while he's in human form.

Abilities:
- Mental link - Johannus can create a Link between two minds, like Vashti but not as strong. This requires most of Johannus's attention, leaving him vulnerable while he's maintaining the connection.
- Aura map - he can sense Auras around him, within a certain range. He can't quite tell whose, however...

Godmode:
- Selective mind reading - Johannus has the ability to read the thoughts of anyone within sight, by focusing on them with his eyes. So far this can only read the person's strongest thoughts.

Appearance:
The most notable difference after Activation is Johannus's hair. His arms and legs are hairier, he now has a trimmed beard as opposed to stubble, and from the center of his forehead, a white streak now runs back through his hair, which is always below his shoulders. He's also slightly taller and heavier - 5'9 as opposed to Ky's 5'7.
