Background story:
Kain was born the youngest son of Diana and Odin
Woodshaft, also the
parents of Abel
Woodshaft. While Kain was a child, he worshiped his
older brother and wanted to be just like him. Once
Abel became an established
hero in Wutai,
Kain started to resent the attention his older brother got,
even going so far as to honestly convince himself that he
hated him. Kain was
never allowed
into the Wutai army, as he was deemed "not good enough" and
"too young". When Wutai fell to Shinra and his older
brother was killed, he
never said a
word...locking away all the feelings of guilt over his jealousy of his
brother.
As Wutai was transformed into a tourist trap, Kain
discovered he had other
talents.
Talents like being the most charming and sweetest talking con
artist/thief
this side of Costa De
Sol. So he made his money and passed his days putting those
talents to good use.
When Yuffie left Wutai to go out and seek people
to come back and fight for Wutai's
freedom, Kain followed her, enticed by the thought of world
travel and "bigger scams".
He's been
travelling with Yuffie ever since, acting as sort of body guard/rival
materia
hunter. It's been suggested
the two have a romantic interest in each other.
Upon meeting Gabriel, and being shocked at how he
resembled his brother, Kain has
decided to
stick around and find out more about the enigmatic treasure hunter.
Kain is mean spirited by nature. His
jealousy over his brother has led him to become
vicious and he'll stop at nothing to get what he
wants. He's also selfish, always putting
himself before anyone else. He enjoys belittling
people and manipulating them because
it
makes him feel powerful. This shared hobby between Bri and himself often
leads to
intense battles of wits (with
plenty of below-the-belt hits) that have to be broken up
by other members of the party (Usually Gabriel. No
one else seems to care if Bri and
Kain
kill each other.)
Jenova-Sephiroth first approached Kain as seeing
him as an ally against Gabriel.
At times
Sephiroth-half seems to "borrow" Kain's body. Kain also works to place
seeds
of distrust amongst the team
members. Where his loyalties really lie is a complete mystery.
After meeting up with the team (here I mean Gabe,
Inno, Bri)
Bri hit him over the head with
her scythe and he blacked out. Ever since then Kain
will spontaneously begin to act really, really oddly (for
him at least, perfectly IC
for someone
else).
In these moments, he's extremely nice to everyone,
and keeps asking if he can help
in any
way. He randomly hugs Bri, Aeris, Inno, Tifa, Yuffie...any other female
nearby
while saying something like "Oh,
there you are! I was looking everywhere for you!" or
"I'm so glad you're all right!" There isn't anything
Hentai or sneaky in the hugs.
They seem to
be an expression of genuine concern. Aside from his radical phase
shift
from self-centeredness to concern
for others, he insists on calling Bri, Yuffie and Inno "Sofee"
and is constantly looking for them even if they're right in
front of him. He's also begun
saying
things that don't really make any sense and making references to things that
he
seems to feel the rest of them should
know about.
He walks up to Indigo,
Max, Gevura, or Kizn and talks to them like he knows them,
but calls them by different names. (A good example of
this would be having Kain
walk up to Kizn
and say "Hey, Ursus, I'm really sorry about knocking the door off
the hinges at your base." Yes, make
references to OW!!) He also...for some strange
reason has begun to flip out whenever someone mentions
chocobos or he sees one.
This happens a
lot since that's what his summon materia calls for and ever since
Synthesis and his "companion" joined the merry
band of adventurers...
Usually his gaining wolf ears atop his head
accompanies this "flipping out", which then
disappear once he calms down and starts acting like himself
again. But they sometimes
appear for
no real reason, (always present when he's sleeping) and maybe a side
effect
of using materia.
Someone will usually question them upon first meeting Kain
they learn quickly
that he just doesn't
seem to "get" what's wrong with them. Kain retains all
of his charm, but it's more a goofy, boyish charm and less
of a con artist's charm.
Kain often
seems "flighty" or really out of touch with what is going on, but can
still say amazingly intelligent things just "out
of the blue". When he's not asking
where "Sofee" is, of course. ^_~
Creator's Comments:
I have stuck Inu in this because it was lonely
without him. ^^; Once Kain get's
Inu-ized just write him the way he was written in
OW!!. The quotes, well
#1 is
probably something Kain would say, and #2 is something Inu would say.
And,
no, he's not Inu-ized all the
time. He flashes between Inu and Kain's personalities.
Inu comes forth when he sees a Chocobo.
Inu: Something I'd say? Like I'm not
going to put boxers on my head and dance the
rain dance around Bri and Indigo the first chance I
get. I don't care how stupid it makes me
look. And about those Giant Chicken
things--
Inu is NOT stupid, okay? He just doesn't
think the way "normal" people do. He's
kinda like a child in the way that he makes the most out of
everything. Oh yes, and
don't be
afraid to have Inu constantly undermining what Bri says. He has a habit
of
making smart ass remarks that make me
look stupid.
Inu: Only when you leave yourself wide open... As you often do.
I'm sure our OW!! friends remember the time Inu
got possessed by Sephiroth because
of that
stupid Inu Plushie taking attention away from him. It was kinda
scary.
Inu: *smirk* But I took care of that plushie. Oh, yeah.
The colors he wears: White gives the
impression of innocent and light blue is a calming
color. Kain wants people to trust him and see him as
friend so it's easier to trick them.
Oh, and who knows from which FF character I stole the height and birthday?
