PERSONALITY
Positive Traits: He is very in control of himself and doesn't let his emotions control his actions. Kazamir is very clear in his resolve and desires. If his loyalty lies with you it is eternal and unwavering.
Negative Traits: His resolve might often be referred to as stubbornness. As much as he is in control of his emotions, he shares very little of them; Notoriously secretive. He appears to have very little respect for life and the subjects he animates.
Brief Personality Description: For those who are acquainted with him on a daily basis, Kazamir will come off as a kind and helpful person. Scratch beneath the surface and some might find it forced or empty. He's prone to laughter and more or less has a smile plastered on his features constantly. Generally seems like a cheerful character, dedicated to his squad. However, truer colors are visible when Grimm grazes a battlefield, making it all too clear that he enjoys snuffing out lights with enthusiasm.
Behind the cheerful mask, there is a nihilistic man who's slowly changing his worldview. If you've already lost everything, does anything matter?
Fears: Being powerless, losing those he has sworn to protect.
Motivations: Power to undo what has been done. As much as Kazamir has started to disconnect from his kin, his desire to gain more knowledge and power has trifolded ever since the passing of his spouse.
LIFE
Hometown: Draeke - A coastal city, only purged within the last two decades or so. Before that, Kazamir and his parents traveled from town to city.
Marital Status: Widower.
Family: Danica Grimm (mother), Morpheus Grimm (Father) - His mother succumbed to the curse many years ago and he hasn't spoken with his father since he was recruited by the Knight Arcane.
Arden Grimm (spouse - deceased.)
Other Relationships: Arden's parents are still alive but the family had a falling out with Kazamir after discovering that they buried an empty casket.
Background: Kazamir's early life was that of travels, with his parents both being a member of the clergy they had taken on positions of missionaries that led them to travel the Crystalline Dominion to ensure order and deliver their religious doctrine to the masses. Much of his youth was spent like this. When his parents settled in Draeke, Kazamir was already in his teens and the town had barely been purged of the shadows. Yet settle they did, and while not all were susceptible to the teachings of the Dominion, the majority found comfort in their saviors. But the curse was unforgiving and soon Danica felt herself taken by the blight as a terrible sickness hit. While her body remained strong; Her mind did not and eventually she succumbed to the madness. While she turned, Morpheus fell into despair and ultimately Kazamir was left to slay her as the first casualty against the blight that would be the bane of his career forward as a Knight Arcane.
Kazamir excelled fast amongst the knights, and although his methods and combat style had garnered both critics and skeptics, they had also made him known and admired. Amongst those admirers, Kazamir found companionship and romance with his fellow knight Arden Licht - A Radiant with the powers of light and life. The two were inseparable and married no more than a year later after their first encounter to be wed for almost a decade. But as fate would have it, history repeated itself and Arden was lost to the blight but did not go without a fight, only felled by the strongest of aberrations.
For a long while Kazamir was a shell of what he once was, blaming himself for the loss of his partner and so he became a recluse - A shut-in. After a failed suicide attempt, his captain dragged him out of his self-enforced solitude, begging him to return to life to which Kazamir slowly has been integrating back into a more social personality.
If Kazamir is still blaming himself, if he's still grief-stricken, if he's still planning on meeting Arden again soon... it is hard to tell.
