Koi Gido

Koi Gido is the son of former Novatrice students Ko Gido and Amadea Eros. Being used to the comparisons between him and his father, Koi tries to keep his identity as the rich son of the well known lawyer a secret to his peers in fear of being seen as a clone of his dad and to discourage others for using him for his wealth. 
== Personality ==
Koi may come off as aloof at first, but anyone close enough to known him will realize that's not who he is at all. Much more of an observer, he may seem quiet in bustling areas as he surveys his surroundings and others who accompany him. On a personal level, Koi is a funny, kind-hearted boy, having his fun with trickery and teasing, but making sure to draw a thick line and no go overboard with his rambunctious personality.
== Appearance ==
Ginger waves swept back, he leaves only room for his natural green strands to peak out, leaving way for his pale, angelically clear skin. On his sharpened face, the only area not decked with a lightened hue is the diamond of red ink which rests under his right eye. Stern, orange brows creep their way onto his forehead and under them set his ghostly blue eyes, mature and hazed. Between them is a bridge, connecting the upper of his face to the narrowly sculpted nose. Thin lips lay above his chin. Koi's clothing style could be described as business-casual, usually dressed in a button up, pared with a minimalistic blazer and pants of a dark blue to black shade, and silver earrings.
== Early Life ==
Growing up in the richer part of New York City, Koi is aware of his privilege. His mother and father, being high school sweethearts, was, in his eyes, a perfect couple.
Despite his mother’s countless explanations, Koi had always believed himself to be named after his dad, as there was only a one letter difference. As a kid, he didn’t have an issue with this. He adored his dad, though had always been more of a mamma’s boy. Koi found it so fascinating how his mother went around, helping people fall in love. On the contrary, he never found that much excitement with his dad’s work. He’d been in his office once, the stacks of papers and files boring him to a crisp. It’s not like he got to see his dad’s actual work in a court room, for his parents wouldn’t allow it, to his dismay.
As he grew older, so did the attention brought upon him by his father. Alongside it came the growing distance between the two. He’d been a popular kid, but could never trust if it was due to his personality or his father’s reputation. He couldn’t tell if teachers liked him because he’s a good student or because his father was.

== Relationships ==
=== Ko Gido ===
When Koi was younger, him and his father were close. Especially during the times in which his mother was away on work, Koi and his dad would hang around one another at any opportunity given—touring the city, making surprise visits to his extended relatives (of course, only the ones on his dad’s side), going out shopping.
Around the time Koi entered middle school, Ko had received a large promotion and began to take on bigger cases from bigger clients. With it came a growing distance between Koi and Ko, especially with the onset of puberty and the rebellious need to mature. Koi felt as if his father wasn’t there for him emotionally, feeling like anything he told his busy dad would go through one ear and out the other, though this was very much not the case. when Koi realized he was vincian, he made a point to only come out to his mother, presuming his father to not care or understand how he felt.
Though years had gone by since the initial relationship discrepancy, Koi stills feels a distance with his father, though tolerates him. With his and Adham’s fallout, Koi has just now began to rethink his feelings towards his dad and begin to review things with an open eye, though he is still far from forgiving of his father.
=== Amanda (Eros) Gido ===
Growing up in a mostly human society with a cherub parent, Koi found his mom’s line of work so intriguing. At one point, young Koi wanted also to be a little Cupid, which caused him to have a little meltdown when his mother explained to him that he’d need wings to be in her line of work. Even with his mother being busy, he would always collect flowers and make cute projects in art class for her and she’d always make a point to spend time with him as much as possible.
As Koi began to grow, Amadea caught on very quickly that he wasn’t the straightest line on the page. It’s in her job description to pick up on these certain things. That being said, she didn’t say anything till he told her on his own, to which she told him that no matter who he loved, she would support and mingle with his romance all the way. In fact, she was the one who ended up slipping it to Ko, assuming he already knew.
Koi still tries to keep his mother’s angelic nature a secret to others if possible, which his mother is aware and supportive of, since he knows the dozens of questions, requests, and strange glances he’d get if people knew,
=== Vincentia Wilmire ===
Due to their parents (Koi’s being Ko and Vincentia’s being Elva) being close friends, the two were often around each other since they were young, causing them to become quite close. The two would often only be able to hang out when at Vincentia’s castle due to security reasons, so their parents made sure to arrange visits every once in a while.
When they were around one another, it’d often be alone, playing outdoors, although when inside with their parents, it’d be with the laugh-filled chatter of Ko and Elva, them reminiscing of their school days at Novatrice. They would occasionally joke of how funny it was that people thought that they’d get together, mentioning how ironic it’d be if their children did.
So it was quite ironic when the two children were around fourteen, they began to date. It was quite awkward, the way Koi asked her out. He had felt what he believed to be strong feelings for Vincentia, to which she returned. Unfortunately, the couple didn’t last the longest. After a month or so of dating, they shared their first kiss with one another. Koi didn’t admit this to Vincentia, but that kiss began a spiral that would lead to him realizing his lack of attraction towards women. During the kiss, Koi felt nothing. If anything, he felt a bit gross, since Vincentia seemed to enjoy it so much, yet him so little.
Koi endured the relationship for a few more months, mainly to get his reasons sorted and scared to hurt his dearest friend. When he eventually began to come to terms with his sexuality, it had been around the six months mark of their romance. They had a long, awkward conversation in her room that day, to which Koi told her that he thinks they should break up, explaining to her that he believes he’s gay. Although heartbroken, Vincentia put her own feelings aside, knowing it to be best. After all, she had felt as if she had been putting more effort into their relationship, and his sexuality would explain why.
For a good year or so after their breakup, they didn’t speak to one another, at least by their own choice. Ko and Elva would still meet up, dragging their kids along, and Koi and Vincentia had to give their awkward greetings. It wasn’t till Koi’s sixteenth birthday, when he received a text from his former friend, that they began to become friends once more. Vincentia explained that she didn’t regret a single bit of their history, from friendship, to dating, to the eventual split. They both agreed that the time was necessary for both of them to heal, but that both wished to become good friends like they were prior. Now, Koi considers her the closest friend he has. They text one another on a daily, Koi updating her on the current events at Ember Moon, and Vincentia ranting about the difficulties being a royal. Sometimes, mainly for holidays, they’ll even write hand-written letters to one another.
