Appearance: 

If you happened upon Kris on a normal day in the slums, he'd stand out only in the way of his looks and relative cleanliness. He blended in with the other residents of the slums, maintaining his tough and cool exterior without appearing as he didn't belong. Kris avoided wearing anything flashy or too nice, although always preferring to keep his clothing relatively clean at least, though dirt and muck was unavoidable in the slums. Since his vigilante clothes were good enough to be stolen by the occasional thief, he kept them at one of his vig hideouts.
His normal attire usually consisted of a combination of a worn short sleeved shirt, faded skinny jeans, old sneakers or boots, and a high-collared dark coat or windbreaker.

The tattoo on his face is a remnant from when he first moved into the slums - just a kid who made some mistakes, ran into some of the wrong people, and got himself tattooed. It's mostly gone by now, thanks to his efforts, but if you look closely you can see the faded blocky letters of a messy tattoo job, spelling T O U G H.




Personality: 

Kris often first comes off as a relatively uncaring, aloof, yet intimidating avatar. His aura is that of a tough leader, not often fazed, more often the one to faze others instead - and he often will, sometimes at random. He expects to be obeyed, and relishes the chance to stand his ground even more when challenged. He is one to speak or act just to get reactions out of people. He is not one to easily admit to mistakes, however, Kris will do many things in order to keep up his "cool tough boy" appearance, and he can be smart about it. Unfortunately, he is also a bit of a troll, but that has diminished ever since he took on the responsibility of being a branch leader. Still a dork, but only on the inside. (He tries v hard) When he lived with his family and could visit freely after he purposely dropped, he was a great older brother to his younger siblings, Ingham and Cleo.

Background:

His parents were vigilante sympathizers. On the day of his test, Kris dropped several levels on purpose so that he would be able to move with more freedom. He was provided resources and connections by his middle class family, and was able to visit them with relative freedom. However, Ingham was in the perfect age group to believe more firmly in the system, and was approached by police to report any suspicious activity among his family and friends, with twisted truths and the lure of rewards. This meant that Kris was no longer able to travel freely to visit his family - or vice versa (ie meeting in lower class) - and to make matters worse, the education system was effectively brainwashing the younger generations into loyalty, and Ingham, despite not directly knowing about Kris’s affairs, suspected him of vigilante activity, and began shunning him for being placed into a lower class. Three years later and four years after Kris’s test, his father disappeared, leaving his mother with a 13 year old Ingham and a two year old baby sister, Mira “Cleo” Park. No one knows where he disappeared to. Kris and Ingham suspect different things, but their mother wouldn’t say anything - perhaps she is in the dark as much as they are.

It’s been five years since Ingham has last seen his brother. Cleo, however, knows him as her funny babysitter that comes when her normal sitter is unavailable. He looks different now, with changed eyes, hair, clothing, and different physical build than he had five years ago. (ye working out)

Kris is currently the leader of a small branch of vigilantes, who are known as one of the smallest and least radical. Runs more like a gang than an actual devoted vigilante group, but they still contribute. His mother currently secretly supports Kris behind the authorities and Ingham's back, but much less so now that his father is gone.
