## Biography

Kylar was born in Northron,Alder to Bram McLaughlin and Kelly McLaughlin. He has an older sister by 2 years (Katy) and a younger sister by 6 years.

His family owned a popular and bustling business known as McLaughlin Apothecary. His father is both an alchemist and doctor, which was beneficial as Kylar was a very sickly child. He was frequently ill and had seizures. Stuck inside for a good chunk of his childhood, his mother became a live-in nurse and even more protective of him since his prognosis was so uncertain.

Fortunately, his father was able to specially made a medicine to help aid him in living a relatively normal life.

Watching military demonstrations from afar in his room, he became fascinated with the idea of heroism.

He was studious and his parents pushed for him to join the family business, but he found alchemy boring. He agreed to attend University to study it while also enrolling into the Army for basic training.

His late teens and early adulthood was incredibly busy and straining, but he managed to complete his degree while raising in the ranks of the army. He also met his now boyfriend,Joel there.

Eventually he abandoned the alchemist prospects all together and became a soldier full time, even fighting in the latter half of The Red War, rising to Lieutenant Commander just below General. Which also allowed him to work in Special Ops for the Kingdom. Joel ended up cutting off the budding relationship upon learning of his engagement

During this he agreed to his arranged marriage with Marylyn - to which he confessed to being gay. The two split privately to pursue other relationships while keeping up the facade for their family's sake.

He soon reacquainted himself with Joel and the two agreed to start dating.
