Abilities

Kit is a Katabatist. A user of the Katabaticy magic the Foxkin employ. And a very talented one at that. Surprising his peers again and again with insight on how to use the winds to acheive different effects.It is beleived by many that he will rise to be a great Katabatist one day.

He is also a master of Katbatsu, a form of martial arts developed to help Katabatists learn control so they can have control over spells they cast. It is also taught to them so that they have a form of self defense should they need it.

Background

Kit was born in Chilargentia. His mother a Vulpkin, and his father a Graykin. Neither of them held any special status or anything. He lived like a normal Foxkin cub would until about the age of 6 or 7 where, to the surprise of both parents, and many friends, that he was able to see the winds of Katabaticy. Upon questioning from his parents, they found that he could always see them, and it wasn't until now that he felt comfortable enough to reveal it. His parents being overjoyed at this didn't mind at all. After much deliberation, they decided to look into the Academy of Katabaticy where they trained Katabatists. They decided in the end to send him there, even though he was easily younger than pretty much everyone there. However, as they say, big things come in small packages as he demostrated an understanding and control over the winds unmatched by most of the students there. Quickly moving though the grades.

Altough he showed a remarkable talent, many resented him for it. Others looked at him like a prodigy. It was decided that for his sake, that he'd be homeschooled from then on. About the age of 9 when this happened, he couldn't be happier as they had him living on the academy grounds. His family came to visit occasionally, and he missed them. His family being overjoyed at this, throwing a small welcome home party where he was able to show off some of the magic he had learned. Throughout the following few years he was home taught and schooled in the ways of Katabaticy. He showed remarkable talent with using Void wind. But some of the others, Green especially he showed little interest in. He was also taught in the ways of Katbatsu. Finally mastering it at the Age of 13. Incidentally, another war, which is quite frequent in that region had developed, and he felt like he should help. He signed himself into the army. His family not liking it, but understanding his feelings towards it. His peers at the academy not understanding why such a talented pupil would ever want to do such a thing. He joined the Mixed forces, training for about a ear before he was deemed ready to join in battle. Once actually on the front lines, he continued to prove his worth over and over again. Frequently showing his ability to command and hold. Quickly rising to the rank of sergent where he continued to show exelence. Holding lines that would be deemed lost to commanders, and proving against the odds time and time again.

Something his peers at the Academy didn't like was how he was learning things they didn't wish him to learn. For while on the front lines, he learned how to use Katabaticy to harm people and others. His peers knowing that he could quite easily get lost in it, always tried to get him to retire and come back, but he always refused. Beleiving that he was better use in the army. After about 3-4 years of the same excelent service, he was quickly becoming a well known person. It wasn't until after a major event took place did he become truly well-known.

A warring faction with Chilargentia had suddenly called for peace talks. Kit himself had voiced against listening. Having fought them personally he found their feirce fighting habits, then sudden call for peace a bit strange. However his objections went unheard as a peace committee was sent to a neutral location to negotiate a peace treaty. Soon after, they recevied word from the faction that they had hostages and threatened to kill them if they did not pull back. Chilargentia, not wanting to risk lives, complied with these demands, however in secret they formed a team of specialists. Kit was chosen for his skill and proficancy in Katabaticy and Katbatsu. They were each told that if they failed in their mission, then all existance of them would be deneid and that this was an extremly dangerous mission. Kit being the first and foremost to agree. Beleiving that it was his duty to undertake this mission. The team assembled, they were told their mission. They were to infiltrate and extract the Peace council that was sent, getting each member out safely and intact. They first checked the site where the council was sent, and much to their not-so-surprise, signs of a minor battle were evident, along with the bodies of the few gaurds sent along. They followed the tracks of the capturerers for many days before coming to a large, heavily fortified complex. The original plan was to set a bomb on another side of the complex, using that as a distraction to sneak in. They sneaked in well enough, but the bomb was too good. Soldiers running every which way, it wasn't long until they were discovered and fighting ensued. Fighting their way to where the council member were being held, they managed to extract them all safely from the complex. However the casulties were heavy. more than 2/3s of the force sent out to retreive the council. They had to rely on stealth, sneaking away quickly, and once they were a day or two away from the complex, they sent word back to the front line that the council was safe. The commanders quickly enacting the second part of the plan. A full scale assault against the faction to cover their retreat. After traveling for many days they managed to get back to Chilargentia lines safetly. The councel intact. The military and government holding the final remaining survivors of the team as heros and the ones who died as martyrs for a greater cause. ( To be continued as things develop -Mystic)
