Kieran Hemingway

Personality
Kieran couldn't be described as anything other than an actor; he's manipulative, devious, flirtatious, and has the ability to fool nearly anyone with his wit and his charm. He loves attention, and not only flirts with the young woman of the Academy, but the young men as well! He'll adapt his personality to suit whoever he's courting - romantic, vivacious, shy, sexy - he can be any and every man.

Only very close friends will know who he really is; broken, lonely and afraid. He can be rude, sarcastic and bitter, and rarely smiles outside of his 'acts'. He shies away from talking about his past, and if asked about his family will talk about his mother without mentioning that she's deceased. His biggest fear is his temper. He rarely loses it, but when he does it completely takes him over, making him violent and uncontrollable - a curse from demon from an inner circle. Luckily, there are very few things that will set him off, and he can usually maintain his perfect act. Only a handful of people have ever seen these sides to him, and he intends to keep it that way.

Kieran is terrified of love. He gets 'crushes' occasionally, and always on boys who resemble Paris (see history) either in looks or personality. These are usually fleeting, but they make him very uncomfortable. He's not a virgin, but he has only had one lover in the past. He's scared that if he falls in love again, he'll feel like he's betraying Paris, and his memories with Paris. However, despite his worry, he is very, very anxious to fall for someone again, and his trying his best to find someone he is capable of loving to the degree he loved Paris.

Kieran excels at Black Magic, but has little to no experience in hand-to-hand combat. Due his demon heritage, he is physically quite strong -stronger than any human - but he'll always shy away from brawling and rarely fights back in the same manner. It's not just because he's clumsy with his fists, but also because he thinks it's improper. He wants to be remembered as charming, polite and sophisticated; certainly not aggressive. Because he feels he shouldn't just rely on the Dark Arts for defense, he's taking the Machinery and Gunnery class so he can learn how to use guns.

Hobbies
Piano and sometimes the violin, although he's better at the piano; playwriting, lyrics and poetry; cooking, baking and artistry in the kitchen; painting; seducing pretty men; flirting with pretty girls; dating. He also occasionally sneaks out to hunt wild animals to satisfy his blood lust, although he keeps this a secret as his midnight feasts are animalistic and often grotesque.

Before AoH
Kieran was one of the few demons actually born in the outer circle of Hell, and not 'made' from a human. His parents had been trying for years to have child and were thrilled when Kieran was born. They escaped Hell together when Kieran was eight. His father used his magic to swindle humans, and his mother became an honest and successful fashion designer. They discovered a cove of other demons, and learned to satisfy their blood lusts without raising suppician. They bought a huge mansion when Kieran was ten, and Kieran befriended their new neighbor, a thirteen year old human boy called Paris.

When Kieran's mother was killed by the DHS, 'Demon Hunter Society,' Kieran's father became surly and aggressive, and Kieran started to spend more and more time with Paris in order to avoid him. He and Paris became very close as they grew up. They shared a kiss in an orchid when Kieran was 13, and became lovers when Kieran was 15. However, Paris' nineteenth birthday was the last time Kieran ever saw him.

Kieran was sixteen when he found out Paris had a fiance, when he caught Paris and the woman together, and when Paris died. Kieran can't remember anything except his rage, but when he came too he found Paris dead in his arms.

Kieran's father sent him to a private school in order to learn to control his anger. Kieran searched the school for somone, anyone, who could replace Paris in his life. He had learned charm and seduction from Paris, and found that he was good at it. But he failed to find anyone who lived up to Paris, and he loathed himself for what he did. Each day he grew more desperate. He never learned how to control his blinding, violent anger, and he had attacked seven humans before his father discovered AoH and enrolled him.

Kieran decided that here, at the Academy of Heroes, there was somone who could control him and love him like Paris did. He'd find that person even if it meant dating every single student in the school. He would fall in love again, and forget about Paris.

NOTE: If I can find anyone interested in joining next semester as Paris, a newly created demon, Paris' name might change =3

Beginning School
Kieran found the Academy of Heroes was a much easier school to attend; while a lot of the students were human, they carried magic in their blood and didn't have the same

appeal as other humans. He could control his blood lust and his anger with ease. The girls were sweet, the boys were handsome - it was the perfect retreat from his father.

Within the first week he dated five girls, all pretty, cute and charming in their own way. The Academy girls were easier to be around and talk to than any he had previously dated. His own charm never failed him - he was never turned down. But as the weeks wear on, he's beginning to lose hope of ever falling in love.

He found his first friend - his second ever true friend - in Mei Vianen. Other people began to become regular faces in his life, and it wasn't long before he had a wide variety of friends and allies within the school. Although there were a couple of people he wasn't too fond of, he didn't have a single enemy. He was happier than he had ever been since his loss of Paris two years prior.

And then it returned, his cursed Rage. It was over something small, just the slightest argument with Mei, and it never passed the point of being uncontrollable, but Kieran knew he could never forgive himself for hurting people he cared about again. For days he hid in his room, avoiding the handful of friends who had witnessed it. He was ashamed and angry. Things had been going so well, and he had ruined it.

Best Friends
 Mei Vianen

Kieran considers Mei his best friend. She knows more about him than anyone else in their house. She knows he's a liar, she thinks he's a slut, but she's happy with him anyway. She doesn't need him to be charming flirtatious for her to like spending time with him, and he can be himself around her. He loves that.

Ray Price

At first, when Kieran discovered that he was to room with Ray Price he was a little shocked - surely it was wrong for a young man to room with a girl? When he discovered that Ray was in fact a boy, he considered swapping rooms with someone else. Ray was your typical teenage girl; pretty clothes, makeup, hair ribbons, gossiping - all the things most men avoided, Ray coveted. Kieran had been hoping for either a quiet roommate who wouldn't disturb Kieran's alone time, or a handsome man he could sweep off his feet and romance with breathtaking sex that would drive all their past worries out of their minds. Ray Price certainly didn't fall into either of those categories.

However, as the days went by, Kieran began to warm to his room mate. Ray was like a child. He was needy and selfish, but he was also hopelessly adorable. Kieran had always longed for a little brother (an unrealistic dream, considering how infertile demons are) and found himself loving Ray as he thought he would a younger brother. These days he's almost over protective of Ray. He dotes on him often and his past annoyances are forgotten.

Incarnatus Friends
 JR Wang

Kieran likes JR. He's not putting on an act like a lot of the other students (Kieran included) in the school. Kieran and JR spend enough time together for Kieran to call him a good friend, but Kieran isn't entirely sure that he really knows JR. JR enjoys playing with Kieran's pet, and Kieran loves seeing this softer side of JR's usually anti-social character. Kieran hopes that they might get to know each other better, and become closer friends in the future.

 Amadeus Benedict

Kieran has always respected Amadeus, and the day Amadeus punched Kieran in the face, Kieran couldn't have respected him more. Amadeus is strong, not just physically, but mentally too. They don't have much in common, but Kieran really values him.

 Shou Akashi

Kieran can't really call Shou a friend, but he always seems to be there. Wherever Kieran and his friends are hanging out, Shou will turn up eventually. A room without Shou seems a little too big, but when Shou steps in it's like adding the last cookie to the tray. Even if this gingerbread man never talks.

 Primetta Albertine

A very cute, younger student that Kieran loves to flirt with.

Mocha Mocha is like the maid of the Incarnatus House. She's always polite, treating everyone like superiors, and is always happy to help. She's genuinely shy, and Kieran likes that about her. Although he doesn't feel he knows her well enough to talk honestly with her about himself - she's quite a confusing character to get to know - around her he feels calmer. Due to the results of a bet they made on the Cheer Tryouts, Kieran will be taking Mocha to the Winter Ball.

 Nakota Kitade

Kieran enjoys flirting with Nakata.

 Belial Doncieux

Kieran is quick to roll his eyes at Belial, but he likes him really. Although they're from separate areas of Hell, Belial is the only other demon Kieran has met so far.

Other Friends
Eva Smith

Kieran finds Eva to be beautiful and sophisticated. Although he doesn't see her much, he'll smile to her in the corridors and does his best to make her smile when they talk, without being too obvious in his flirting. He hasn't quite ruled her out yet, and would love to get to know her better.

Romulus

If Mei thinks Kieran is a slut, Kieran would love to know what she thinks about Rom. Kieran is fascinated with Romulus and his blunt seduction, but knows that if he ever slept with Rom he wouldn't be just another night to forget in Rom's hefty list. He wouldn't be the seduced - he'd play the Incubus and steal Rom's white virginity. It would have nothing to do with Kieran's preferred position, and more to do with the fact that he needs to see another side of Rom before he can rule him out as a potential lover. Sex is everything to Rom, so sex is the best way for Kieran to get to know him.

( NOTE: If I made some wrong assumptions about your character, feel free to change it))

Family
Banquo Jacob Hemingway

Father. Once upon a time, Banquo doted on and loved his son. Now he barely notices him, and they argue often.

He was born in the Jacobean era, and has been a demon for over 300 years. He abandoned his old last name as soon as he became demon, and refuses to speak of his human past. The name 'Hemingway' he adopted when he, Dorothy and Kieran fled hell to live again among the humans.

Dorothy 'Ester' Hemingway

Mother. Was always loving and sweet to Kieran until they very end.

The most beautiful and gentle woman in the outer circle of Hell. She became a demon by summoning a shadow demon in an attempt to save her dying son - the demon dragged her back down to hell, and her son died. She grieved her child for hundreds of years before she fell in love with Banquo and they decided to try and start a family together. It took them a hundred years, but she finally became pregnant with Kieran, who was to be only the seventh Demon child ever recorded born in Hell.

She was murdered by human demon hunters. Kieran will never forgive them.
