Personality

Keith is a peculiar sort of individual, this being contributed to his many years of solitude. You see, spending most of your childhood with neither a family nor anyone to care for you does some strange things to a child, especially when your parents tell you that you aren't their son. In hindsight, however, Keith could have turned out far worse.

Keith is an expert at the art of watching, listening, and remembering. Attributed to his many years on the streets, Keith has a talent for reading people. Keith spent hours watching people, and learning, and he learned quite a lot. Keith has habit of just sitting there and watching, it's quite unnerving, except for the fact that you hardly notice that he's there at all. You can't really blame him for it, though. Keith spent years never talking to anyone at all, and he's just not in the habit of speaking very much.

There is a side of Keith that is very serious and solemn, with cool eyes and closed of features. Almost as if he still isn't used to people and being noticed. There is a harshness to Keith, the sort of harshness that you get when you've been betrayed, as in really betrayed by someone who meant the world to you. This is the part of Keith that could kill someone without a moment's hesitation and feel little remorse. The part of Keith that isn't convinced, it knows that no matter what, he'll always be alone in the world.

Things take time, you would do well to remember. Keith has only just become part of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, and if you stick around, you'll learn that this is quite a lot to this strange person.

History

One day, while playing in the garden on his family's estate, Keith collapsed. Keith fell into a deadly fever, the doctors warned his parents that there was a very low chance of survival. Nevertheless, Keith's parents were determined to not give up on their child. There were times when he drifted dangerously close to death, and his mother spent all night by his bed grasping his hand as if she could stop his spirit from leaving if she tried hard enough. For months and months, Keith was limited to his bed and the fever continued.

At one point, when it seemed like the fever was finally weakening and Keith was going to survive, the doctor began muttering to himself about tiny horns. Soon after, the Doctor left, saying that there was nothing else to do but wait.

Then things changed for the worse, but not the way anyone expected. Finally, after months of bed rest, the fever had left Keith. Yet, something was wrong, deeply wrong, and while Keith wasn't quite sure what it was, he could sense it. It began slowly, Keith's parents began to seem preoccupied and distant, in fact, and they hardly seemed to notice him at all. Then the servants began ignoring him as well, paying him no heed. Sometimes Keith would get the attention of someone, and they'd offer him this strange look on their face as if they had no idea who he was for a moment before their eyes focused again and they recalled that it. Eventually it came to the point where Keith felt invisible.

Finally, Keith’s world came crashing down with a sudden realization.
One day, in his father's study Keith threw a book at his head and yelled,"Why aren't you listening to me?!"

Keith's father merely stared at his son dumfounded for a moment before he ceased his eyebrows and asked,"Who are you?"

"I'm your son!" Keith exclaimed, unable to comprehend what was happening.

Keith's father merely scoffed and said,"I have no son."

Words got stuck in Keith's throat, and he began to sob.

"Someone take this blubbering child out of my office!" His father ordered, than added,"How in the world did this street urchin even find his way into my house?"

Then without further comment, Keith was dragged out of the house he'd spent his childhood in and dragged out onto the streets to fend for himself. Keith ran back to the gates and began screaming and shaking them wildly, but all he received was a servant opening the door, looking around for a moment, shaking his head then closing it once more. Just like that, Keith became an orphan, not by death, but by the fact that his parents had forgotten about him. Keith spent the next few days roaming the streets, screaming at the world around him and begging for someone to notice him. Yet, no one did. Sure, there were some people who seemed to suddenly realize he was there, but it only lasted a moment before they forgot about him once more. Keith was surrounded by crowds of people in the one of the wealthiest most populated cities in the world; nevertheless, he was all alone.
