Keanu

**Keanu** is a 19 year old boy from Oceanus who summoned a sixgill stingray he named Kale. He is the mentor of Leilani. He is the only child of his family and was born on Sunlight Island.

## Appearance

Keanu is a short, dark-skinned boy with shoulder-length dark brown hair and light blue eyes. The tattoo of Kale appears on his neck surrounded by blue tattoos all over his body. He owns a Greencloak that is almost always on him.

## Personality

Keanu is an aloof and adaptable person, able to move with the flow. He's an assertive and blunt person, never really caring what others feel. He takes caution in dangerous situations, rarely freaking out and makes quick decisions to get people out of them. He's also quite a cynical and pessimistic person.

## Relationships

### Kale

Keanu summoned Kale with the Nectar at 11, about two weeks before he turned 12. When Kale appeared, Keanu was disappointed to say the least. Keanu wanted something that would help him out in battle, not something he could only swim with. He was jealous when his friend, Oshun summoned Thalassa just a year later. He had thought that he ended up with the wrong spirit animal. Oshun helped Keanu start appreciating Kale’s ways. They're still not best friends, however they get along.

### Oshun

Despite Keanu's negative personality, Oshun is Keanu's best friend and has helped Keanu have a better relationship with Kale. Unlike Keanu, Oshun understood Kale and helped Keanu build a relationship with Kale. Keanu rarely cracks a smile, but with Oshun, he smiles a lot. They usually talk about their family, life and other things when Keanu’s mother makes them do chores. When the Conquerors invaded Sunlight Island, they ran to Zhong where they met Asami. Asami took both of the boys back to Greenhaven, where they teach other children.

### Asami

Keanu has been someone Asami can rely on and she feels more comfortable expressing her true self to him. When they first met, they grew close fast. During the struggle of the Second Devourer War, their bond became inseparable. Keanu quite enjoys Asami's sarcastic and caustic humor and they usually hang out often.

### Leilani

Leilani is one of the kids Keanu teaches and they’re close. Despite who Keanu is, he is very protective of Leilani as she reminds him of his mother. He’s helped her become a great fighter with an awesome spirit animal. Leilani and Keanu usually are together, only leaving each other’s side when they have to go to sleep or when Keanu’s hanging out with Asami.

### His Parents

Keanu’s father died from an illness when Keanu was just three years old. Keanu clung onto his mother and refused to let her go. Keanu’s mother always brought Keanu wherever she went as she was afraid she'll lose him too. When Oshun came over, his mother would force them to do chores before they do anything else. Keanu hated it, but loved them at the same time. When the Conquerors invaded his home, his mother held them back so Oshun and Keanu could get out. She ended up dying in the process of trying to escape. Keanu had a hard time trying to move on, with the help of his friends, he was able to. However, he still carries her memories with him in a bracelet.
