Physical Description

Then you notice his freckles, white against his his faintly rosy, sun-kissed cheeks. And finally there are his horns, small and brown, peeking from beneath his curls.

Apparel & Accessories

Kinley lives a minimal life and travels light, clad in well-worn but comfortable leathers and carrying a small pack. He wears a leather necklace and has several instruments on his person, but has surprisingly few possessions to his name, otherwise.

Personal history

Kinley's origins are a riddle, a question which he, surprisingly, does not seem terribly interested in answering. He was left in a basket outside a door in the town of Alinalenora. Given his mixed blood, it was assumed that he was born of some sort of sorted affair.
 
Even as an infant, Kinley was odd. His cries often seemed eerily musical, and no one quiet knew what to make of his strange eyes or his white freckles. The child was prone to wandering the moment he could crawl, wandering away and getting himself into all sorts of danger and trouble. The child was constantly wandering into the woods, the wind seemed to be perpetually in his hair, and he seemed to have a knack for the random and the unexpected, so much so that the townsfolk only rolled their eyes when he started growing horns.
 
He did manage to surprise everyone when he returned from the woods with a polished, beautiful set of pan pipes and began speaking a language no one seemed to know. Apparently, the strange boy had found friendship with a group of satyrs. It seemed that Kinley not only carries satyr blood from somewhere deep in his lineage, but he also smells of the Fey Wild.
 
From his youngest days, Kinley formed a deep friendship with a farm girl named Rose, and while everyone in Alinalenora expected them to marry, Kinley's restless spirit won out. As soon as he was old enough, he collected his few meager possessions and struck out to see the world, leaving Rose with a broke heart. She was, unfortunately, not the last.
 
Kinley proved to have a notoriously short attention span and an unquenchable wanderlust, resulting in a string of broken hearts in his wake. The irony is that Kinley genuinely loves and adores people, finds them fascinating and delightful, and genuinely basks and delights in their company. When he finds a new, fascinating person, he showers them with attention and affection, smiles and adoring gazes falling on them like warm sunbeams. He looks back on every relationship fondly and honestly can't imagine why any of them would be upset with him for wandering away.

He wandered aimlessly until he met Blaise Olme, captain of the 6th Division of the Selanor Postknights. Blaise's endless energy, passion, and love for life captured and held Kinley's attention like few others. They shared a love of animals and of exploration, and Blaise gave Kinley a new purpose.
 
Kinley joined the Postknights on Blaise's urging, and even picked up a couple phrases in halfling--a real accomplishment, given his general intelligence level. Even this relationship was not meant to last, and Kinley soon found his attentions wandering as he explored the world and flirted his way through the ranks of the Postknights.
 
At long last, Kinley found himself assigned to work on the continent Honovi, a collaborated act of retaliation by several of his former flames who had pull within the Postknights. Unfortunately for them, this attempt is nothing short of incredibly misguided, as Kinley is utterly delighted to find himself on the shores of a new land waiting to be explored.

Education

Kinley suffered through some basic education, nothing he ever excelled at. At least not until he met his satyr friends.
 
Kinley is a bard of the Glamor college, trained in magic and music by satyrs of the woods around Alinalenora.
