Kye Vakurseth is a demon-kin of Pain with a mysterious past. Kye is currently working as an assassin for the Silent Messengers, but now that he has been sent to assassinate Sir Tom Drake, his life is about to change forever.

Biography

Almost nothing is known of Kye's past, and he isn't telling, either. He was born in the Underworld and is the direct son of Akhoman, Archdemon of Pain, making Kye an exceptionally powerful individual, along with his twin, Lye. It is unknown who Kye's human parent was and how Kye came to Midgard, along with most everything else about him. Now he is an assassin working with the Silent Messengers, and they are the only mortals who know of his demonic nature. Currently, he has been hired by the Hooded Figure to assassinate the knight Sir Tom Drake, the Demon Slayer of Illikon.

Description

Being a demon-kin of Pain, Kye has many prominent demonic features: wings, a spearheaded tail, two pairs of dark horns, violet eyes, fangs, pointed ears, and deep but bright, indigo-purple hair. He is able to hide these features at will, although they will reappear if something breaks his rather fragile concentration. Even with these monstrous attributes, however, Kye can nonetheless be summed up as tall, dark, and handsome. His face is clean-shaven and well chiseled, with strikingly handsome features. When in his human disguise, Kye usually takes up bright blue eyes and raven black hair.

Kye bears nearly countless scars, many very strange and several seemingly deliberate, all over most of his body, as well as tattoos. He often hides these with his magic, when he can manage the concentration to do so.

Though he is often clad in spiky armor to begin with, he is never seen without a metallic gauntlet that covers his left hand and forearm up to his elbow. This gauntlet is heavy, spiked, and tips his fingers in long metal claws. Kye refuses to speak of this or to take it off.

Personality

Kye's personality certainly does not suit his tall, strong, demonic, and generally intimidating appearance - in fact, he behaves almost like the opposite of what he appears. Though he sometimes feigns courage in order to survive, Kye is actually a gentle, caring, often naive, and frankly terrified soul. He behaves with almost absurd curiosity for everything around him, despite occasionally showing strangely extensive knowledge of certain (all very undesirable) subjects, none of which he wants to talk about. Shy, hesitant, and often very anxious, Kye can generally be seen fidgeting and mistrusting everyone, when he isn't trying to put up his facade of confidence.

Appearances

Kye is a main character in The Prophecy of the Six, and he has appeared in Knightfall and Into the North.
