He appears to move with power yet remains lithe and quick on his feet. Behind his mask is an impressive mane of feathers, that apparantly can be used in some of the Raven Prince's strange rituals.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Weapons: </strong>Kir keeps a pair of fist claws (that he calls his "talons") ready at the flick of a wrist. He also has a short, curved sword at his waist, a knife in each boot and a throwing dagger close to his heart. In his pouches there are a few reagents for his shamanistic spells and rituals, if he ever finds himself in a tough spot. He also has a discretion crossbow tucked away should he need it.<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>Kirrilim became a prince more by force than heritage. There isn't a strict ruling family where he comes from, but several competing families all vying for the same throne with just as much claim as everyone else. Everytime the Royal family is made anew, they restyle the throne in their image. In the case of Kirrilim's family, they have taken on avian-like metaphors.<br/><br/>Kirrilim isn't really the next in line, he's not really the prize heir. He has three older brothers all in line to be King after their father dies or steps down. To this end, Kir is the slightly rebellious of the family, having spent a lot of time with in the dingier ends of the kingdom, with various shady types. It was on one of these unsavoury sojourns that Kir stumbled upon a bandit clan, who upon closer inspection had their own totems of power and suchlike. Braving the stench for a few days longer, Kir found that this family initiated their own brand of magic through shamanism, and Kir wholeheartedly dived into such dealings. At first suspicious, but now delighted that a member of the Royal family (even an unlikely heir) was taking an interest in their lives, the normally savage bandit clan began to teach Kir most of what they knew, finding the young, broody man had an affinity for it.<br/><br/>Kir sees the lower depths as a way of generating a large fortune to bolster his standings in his Royal family. He sees it either as a reserve fund to use if and when one of his brothers ruins the Kingdom, or as a fund to recruit his own personal army from when the time is right.  He's also taking a high interest on any magic items that he finds below.
