Character

Appearance

Korin is a relatively average miqo'te. His skin is a pale, almost unhealthy hue and he has no particularly notable features to speak of. His face is more often than not concealed by a mess of blueish-grey hair - He clearly makes little effort to keep it in check, aside from occasionally tying it back when he feels the need to do so. Should one actually see beneath it, his eyes are a pale orange colour. For the most part, he just looks tired and somewhat grouchy, despite his otherwise polite attitude towards people.

He is slightly taller than average, and despite the fact that he does try to keep himself in shape it's noticeable that he's a little on the thin side. His tail is oddly short, for a keeper. It's quite a sore point for him, and he often chooses to ignore any comments on it.

Behavior

In a word, Korin is introverted. He's somewhat timid, and reluctant to approach. However, when he is approached he often takes it well and appreciates the company. When dealing with larger groups of people he tends to fall silent unless he is spoken to. There are few things that can actually provoke a reaction out of the miqo'te - And when he does react, his otherwise calm and level-headed demeanour can dissolve and leave him quite flustered. Korin often chooses to take a more observant role, preferring to take neutral ground in a debate and rarely bothering to interject unless he feels it necessary. Despite his best efforts to keep people at arm's length, upon joining The Traveller's Guild he started to warm up to people and often finds himself concerned for their wellbeing over his own. Even after the guild dispersed, he discovered that this trait has lingered and very rarely turns down people who are in need of aid.

Unfortunately, his reclusive lifestyle still leaves him inexperienced in social situatons and even with the few friends that he has, he struggles to keep up any real conversation and prefers to avoid any sensitive subjects that he should ideally be let out into the open.

Relationships

Family

Korin was the firstborn male to a small Keeper family. His mother - Also known as Korin - was a particularly eccentric woman and chose something of an isolationist lifestyle away from any particular community. His father played a very small role in his upbringing. Aside from his parents, he also had three younger sisters, though he appears somewhat bitter about the subject when it is brought up. Being the only son of the family, his given name would be Korin'a, but he tends to introduce himself as Korin for the sake of convenience, among other things.

Friends

Due to Korin's personality he has very few friends to speak of, however following his introduction into the Traveller's Guild he seems to have opened up a little. During his time there he happened to make a number of friends who he still keeps in contact with despite the guild's eventual disband.

Otte Dreamwalker - Originally he pushed Korin into being his assistant with research. Korin is often there to listen to Otte's troubles and offer advice on how to deal with them, despite his own lack of experience. He considers Otte to be one of his closest friends.

Momori Nonori - A suspected demonspawn of a lalafell who attempts to 'help' Korin with his own problems...In his own particular way.

S'meoh Keeneye - Korin considers the exciteable seeker to be a friend, despite his constant invasion of Korin's personal space. He tends to think of him as a younger brother, though he would never admit that he's more grateful for his company than it might seem.

Octavel Loreaux - Korin is much more grateful for the elezen's company than he would admit. Despite his initial attempts to shrug off anything further than friendship, Octavel's persistence eventually won through and they were considered a couple...Until certain unforeseen circumstances led to the pair parting ways, leaving Korin himself relatively bitter about the subject and leading him to retreat back into his shell, to an extent.

Mal Sionis - Another miqo'te who Korin met by chance, he seems to appreciate his company and, much to his surprise, finds that they're more similar than he'd first assumed.

Sarcire Sinclair - Korin isn't really sure what to make of the hyur woman, but he considers her a friend regardless and is grateful for the company she provides. Even if she happens to enjoy teasing him and invading his personal space.

Z'shakka Tia - An ex-Nunh who Korin stumbled upon by chance. After running into the miqo'te a few times, he decided to help him start a new life and hired him instead - However, due to certain circumstances the pair no longer work together. Their relationship was a little uncomfortable following this, though they appear to be on speaking terms now.
