The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. It must be at least two paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

''kairos has dissociative identity disorder. the following are all his personalities.''

As a metamorphmagus, Kairos uses his abilities often. Over the years, from a combination of rigorous use and his own traumatic experiences, this has caused him to form dissociative identity disorder. Each personality is named after a Greek God, and each personality is distinctly aware of the others' presences within Kairos' mind. They don't interact often whatsoever but often do interfere with the activities of the other personalities.

kairos is identified by his natural hair color and eye color (which is both brown).
 * -|kairos=

Kairos is a sharp-minded individual who is often crowned out of all five of the separate personalities as the most intelligent (bookwise, most intelligent overall would definitely go to Eros; you'll see why later). Observant, he can typically easily connect the dots between various things simply because he prefers to watch rather than to participate. He learns the most from silently sitting back and watching the show rather than being in the show, and constantly strives for perfection. He studies the precision of nearly everything and won't stop until he understands it completely. His observance skills make him a good note-taker as well as an enjoyer of fictional works with vast universes (i.e. Narnia, LOTR, Game of Thrones, etc.) because of all the details to sort out. He's also very pessimistic, and when it comes to realism, he pretty much jumps off the deep end of the worst you can ever come up with.

Kairos is typically a very quiet person. He's never been one to talk much and typically lurks more in the shadows and waits more than anything else. That doesn't mean he's not a good conversationalist, in fact, he's very entertaining to converse with, he just doesn't talk much or find the need to seek out socialization. He doesn't mind other people at all and honestly prefers being around them as opposed to being alone, but he doesn't need to talk with them to feel comfortable. He's perfectly comfortable sitting in silence as he listens to everyone else. It fits perfectly with his observant nature as well. After all, if you're busy talking, how can you hear everyone around you?

A stickler for facts, Kairos usually sticks to the books when it comes to relatively anything. Although he's very philosophical and does like wondering about things from time to time, overall, he's a very logical person and is driven mainly by logic. Factual inaccuracies annoy him to no extent, and he can't help but have to correct every tiny detail even if it has no actual impact on the situation. His perfectionism is so extreme to the point where you could probably diagnose him with Minor OCD and be right somehow. There have been countless times where he ends up late to functions or never even shows up because he needs something to be perfect. That means rearranging it fifty million times until he feels satisfied for the five minutes he needs to leave his dorm.

Surprisingly, Kairos is very innocent when it comes to normal human behavior. He doesn't expect people to show him kindness or really, just be decent human beings. It makes him very confused half the time, but you can't miss the way his eyes light up when you spend even a fraction of your day spending time on him. He's a very appreciative person who, ironically, seems to see the good in everyone. He's incapable of developing negative opinions about other people despite his usual pessimistic attitude. He frames total strangers in good light before even meeting them, and that's partially what makes him so hopeful despite his blatant pessimism. zephyrus is identified by his bright blue hair and onyx eyes.
 * -|zephyrus=

Zephyrus is by far the most chill out of the five. He's highly passive about life and kind of just lets things happen as they happen. He doesn't make an active effort to really do anything and is terribly lazy. His lack of contribution to his everyday life is very apparent in his appearance and speaking patterns. He tends to dress very casually and speaks sluggishly and sleepily. The ironic thing is he pretty much lives for any amusement he can get, even if he's not willing to put in the effort to get that amusement. That's why he typically finds the misfortune of others highly amusing since sometimes it's just the only source material out there.

While not extremely extroverted, Zephyrus is by no means an introvert. He doesn't talk nearly as much as Aristaeus or Eros but talks fairly enough to be considered talkative. He likes the company of others and surrounds himself with people often. While he can very well survive on his own, it doesn't usually go well and it's better for his own safety and sanity that he be around other people. Sometimes he can get desperate for the presence of other people, which in turn makes him very clingy. He's not one to vocalize his needs though, which makes him very frustrating to work with emotionally since you really never know what he's thinking, what he wants, and what he needs.

If Zephyrus had a middle name, it'd be apathy. To put it simply - he doesn't care. About anything. He's not really driven by anything to do anything and mostly just acts on a basic need of survival instead of motivations or goals. He's sometimes seen as an empty husk simply because of this core part of his personality. You'll often hear him express 'What's the point?' in an abundance of situations. He shares Kairos' pessimism but is more lowkey in bringing it up. His whole demeanor is generally relaxed, and he doesn't emphasize a need to do anything or be anywhere. Just exist.

Because of how apathetic he is, Zephyrus' opinions are easily swayed. Since he doesn't bother to find himself a firm standpoint on any topic. If you literally just mention one thing, you have him hooked and vice versa. It's obvious that he's mostly there for the shits and giggles and not to seriously contribute. People typically characterize him as a jokester of sorts because he makes a lot of uncalled for comments. His apathy allows him to do things without worrying other people and their opinions of him because frankly, he doesn't give two shits. He really couldn't be bothered to give two shits anyway. aristaeus is identified by his blonde hair and blue eyes.
 * -|aristaeus=

Aristaeus is easily the most sensitive of the personalities. Easily provoked, literally anything could set him off at any given moment depending on circumstance. He reads into things too much and overthinks every little thing as if everything has a deeper meaning than what you can see. He's very meticulous, and like Kairos, is somewhat of a perfectionist as well. Although he's very easy to confuse with Kairos due to their eye for detail and perfectionism, it becomes clear they are two different entities with their own characteristics. While Kairos is usually more collected than Aristaeus, he's very emotional and can't really keep his feelings in check.

Aristaeus thinking and actions are heavily driven by emotion, an opposite of Kairos who is driven by logic. Even his appetite is connected to his emotions, and his desire to eat changes at the snap of a finger due to his constant mood swings. The amount of mood swings he has in a day is insane, and it seems he never knows what exactly he's feeling. It's like he feels so many emotions at one time, he can't pinpoint exactly what he's going through anymore. As sensitive as he is, he's also extremely empathetic and can connect with many people. His ability to understand other people's situations and properly relate with them is one of his strong points and makes his wild ride of a personality worth it sometimes.

Like Kairos, Aristaeus is very attentive and picks up details most people typically don't. This particular trait of his applies more to paying attention to people rather than his general surroundings, but if he finds the time, he's just as observant in his environment as he is with other people. His key to detail allows him to pick up the changes in other people's states of mind, emotions, etc. This also allows him to empathize with other people more easily because it's easier for him to deduct the cause of this change or whatever is making them upset, angry, etc. Surprisingly, he's one the two introverts of the bunch despite being so gifted at working with other people.

One of Aristaeus' more annoying personality traits is his pickiness and indecisiveness. He's either very specific on what he wants or not specific at all, there's no in-between. Some days he might know exactly how many sprinkles he wants on his ice cream cone and other days, he doesn't even know if he wants his ice cream in a bowl or in a cone. It's another one of those things that are tied to his mood swings. His pickiness is more commonly associated with his annoyance and outbursts of anger as well as more negative emotions opposed to his indecision which is associated with his influx of more positive and happy emotions. eros is identified by his minty-teal hair and hazel eyes.
 * -|eros=

Eros... is probably the most problematic out of the whole group. He's truly a wild card and only second to Iapetus, he's easily the most impulsive. He kind of does whatever whenever, which you can easily imagine conflicts a lot with the other four. His desire for lack of constraint can be confused with selfishness, and while he can be a very selfish person sometimes, it's not a trait he expresses often. In fact, he's typically pretty selfless a good majority of the time and is willing to do anything (within reason) for other people. He actually enjoys helping people and giving them his time, and it's not rare to see him volunteering for different things. He doesn't think about himself a lot in the context of "what do I need?" it's more like "what can I do?". The second statement allows him more versatility to be really whatever he wants. Selfish, selfless, kind, rude, you name it. This trait of his does not come without a price, however.

Whether it's intentional or not, Eros is very manipulative. He's typically pulling the strings behind any little charade and lives for orchestrating drama. Like Zephyrus, the misfortune of others is often a source of his humor, and his particular lack of sympathy is also very hard to work with. He likes having things a certain way at a certain time and uses whatever's available to make it happen at that time. He can also be described as fake because really his personality is a facet of many different ones. He can switch faces as quickly as Aristaeus' mood swings take place, which is why his hazel eyes can often be seen changing from green to brown and back. His manipulative abilities if often what places him as the most intelligent out of all five personalities because of his knowledge of how to bend any situation to his will. People, nature, magic, you name it. When he wants to do something, he automatically becomes an unstoppable force.

Being flirtatious and talkative is a match made in heaven when it comes to Eros. Overly-flirtatious, he really has zero boundaries when it comes to his escapades and seeks out the company of honestly, anyone. He's extremely extroverted and can become easily depressed when not around other people. He often appears as a highly likable figure from the outside due to his friendliness and obvious charm, as well as his flirty nature. While the longer you know him, the more obvious his flaws are, he's generally a very charismatic person who's easy to get along with. Although, he does talk a lot, he's very courteous of other people, and often listens just as much as he talks. He's resolved he'll eventually need the information anyway, so he's a very careful listener. Know that whenever you tell him something, even if it doesn't seem like it, you have his full attention and damn well will remember whatever the hell you said,

Eros is very well-dressed. Everything he wears typically displays how much effort he puts into himself on a daily basis. While he can't typically afford expensive things, when he does get them, he takes extremely good care of them and makes sure that they can't be accessed by anyone but his specific personality. His appearance is very important to him, and as a result, he knows a lot about fashion and keeps his eye on trends so he can predict whatever's coming next. Despite his limited possessions, he makes do with whatever he has, and his effort is very obvious. Often times he can wlak around looking like a model in a regular t-shirt and jeans with the right maintenance. It's kind of amazing. He puts so much into his appearance because it's becoming sort of an outlet for him, as well as other things. For instance, while Iapetus is more of the music-centered of the five, he can literally be caught anywhere singing. iapetus is identified by his black hair and green eyes.
 * -|iapetus=

Where do we even start with Iapetus? Oh I know, you don't. Iapetus is in some ways, the exact opposite of Eros when it comes to socialization. He hates talking to people and likes locking himself in solitude where he can focus on him and his art. Where Eros is overly warm, Iapetus is extremely cold and shuts people out before they can even knock on the door. He prefers overall to be left alone, finding people a nuisance that he'd rather get rid of. That doesn't necessarily mean he hates people, he just hates having to communicate with them. He finds the whole verbal communication process very messy and would rather not participate in it. He figures that if he's going to risk having the meaning of his words misconstrued, might as well speak in a riddle, right?

One trait Iapetus shares with Eros is his inclination to literally do anything at any given time. He's not really constrained to the rules and morals of other people, and as a result, is very, very, very impulsive. If he feels like leaving in the middle of class? He's gonna do it. His thought process is very short lived and he rarely considers the consequences of his actions, finding it a waste of time. If he's gonna do something, he's gonna do it without worrying about what's gonna happen next. Like that, he typically lives in the moment of life and is never worried about the past or the future. His whole life is on edge, and he just prefers it that way over it being stablizied and "boring".

Iapetus is kind of an asshole. Okay, yeah, he's an asshole. It doesn't help that the only language he seems to speak is sarcasm. His statements are rarely geninue, and he makes it so obvious that he's faking his disinterest you can practically feel it raidating off him. While he doesn't like talking to people, he's still not very blunt and even if he wants you to screw off, he won't directly tell you to your face he wants you to go away. He'll make it a point to emphasize he doesn't like your presence, but unless you get the hint, he's either going to have to live with your presence or leave. More often it's the latter of the two that happens.

Iapetus is easily the least honest out of all of them. Often described as a compulsive liar, there's a good chance that anything that comes out of his mouth is a lie 90% of the time. He's just not compelled to tell the truth about things and knows no one really believes him on anything anyway, so he doesn't bother trying to be truthful. This makes him look highly untrustworthy which is quite the opposite. In fact, he's a pretty loyal person, just doesn't have many people to be loyal to. A good chunk of his personal universes rotates around him and only him. He's also the artist of the bunch. While it's not to say the other four couldn't do what he does, he just does it the most out of all of them. He thinks very poetically and sees everything as art. He sings a lot, draws a lot, envisions a lot. To him, nothing is truly real. It's all... art.
