## Appearance

Kit is of average height, standing at 5' 6.5" (169 cm). He wears a collared shirt, a vest, and a blazer. The right side of his face is scarred. His hair is combed to the side.

In *Masks of Nyarlathotep*, he wears his engagement ring on a chain underneath his shirt.

## Personality

Kit is the unofficial leader of the group and is prone to take action. He looks out for others, but has "terrible bedside manner." Direct, but overall polite.

## History

### Early Life

Kit was born in Limerick, Ireland on October 24, 1895, along with his twin sister, Erin. Shortly after the twins' birth, their family moved to New York. Later, most of the family moved to Boston, except for his father.

He studied at Harvard University to become a doctor.

### The Great War

Due to something his father had said, Kit enlisted in WW1 as a First Lieutenant in 1917.

#### Meuse-Argonne Offensive

Kit's regiment, the 165th, were tasked with taking Hill 252. On November 3rd, they crossed the Meuse river, but artillery had destroyed the bridge behind them and the bridge on the canal in front of them. As a result, they had to swim the canal to get to the hill.

He was later ordered to take his men up and over. They charged into a line of German soldiers, who "didn't expect [them] to be there so quickly."

Hill 252 was shelled, although the reason why is unknown. Kit's mask was torn off in the fighting, and the reason the gas did not kill him was because he fell face down in the mud. His face was scarred by a German soldier wielding a flamethrower.

French and British reinforcements found him and his regiment on November 9th.

### Post-War

#### Recovery

Kit was unconscious for a few days, and was unconscious during Armistice.

He stayed in London for facial reconstruction at Queen Mary's Hospital, Sidcup; and didn't return to America until 1919.

#### Returning to America

He came back to Boston after spending a year in Europe, although he only stayed for a few months. He traveled around and looked for work where ever he could find it. Occasionally, he would call or wire his family.

He traveled to Peru alongside Sybil, Mason, Peter, Tarrant, and Jackson, although not much is known about the expedition.

### Path of Perdition

#### Part 1

Kit was introduced when he called Erin. It was revealed that he was going on the California Limited to go back to Boston.

On the train, he and Mason met Bertram, who was later revealed to be Peter Hase in disguise.

When Vito was murdered, he was the doctor called onto the scene. He got involved in Vito's murder case along with the rest of the disaster gang. He interrogated people with Sybil and helped them chase and calm down Peter before he could jump off the train.

#### Part 2

He, Sunil, Sybil, and Mason found themselves in the middle of nowhere. They lost their memories of the past week. A man offered to take them to Madrid, and they stayed at the hospital there. They reunited with James, although Jackson was nowhere to be seen.

The disaster gang was later arrested for what the police claimed was a shootout. They were released when the sheriff realized they had no memories of the past week.

James and Kit were shown a body shot in the shootout that decomposed significantly faster than the rest.

They went on to investigate the church that the shootout started in. After, they went back to the police station and found one of the officers. The decomposed body was revealed to be a crawling one and attacked Mason.

Kit killed the crawling one by shoving a shelf on top of it.

After that incident, a hotel receptionist they had met earlier appeared and told the group about her father and how he saw Sunil in one of his dreams. They agreed to go with her to meet her father.

Her father performed a ritual which made them fall asleep and dream. Kit talked to reanimated corpses, his sister being one of them, hanging on barbed wire in the trenches in his dream. Outside of the trenches was a land torn by war.

When they woke up, they regained their memories. They remembered where Jackson was taken and drove up to Kansas in an attempt to save him, although Jackson ended up saving them.

Before they parted ways, Kit, Sybil, and James helped Mason leave Aphrodite's Apostles.

### Four year skip (1921-1925)

#### America

Kit helped Mason open a bank account and get his own apartment. He also visited his father in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan and went to Boston to visit his sister and mother.

#### Europe

Kit moved to Berlin to study under Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld in the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft (Institute of Sexology).

Kit and Sunil started dating in 1922 and Kit later proposed to him.

### Masks of Nyarlathotep

#### New York

Kit and Sunil were informed about the situation by Sybil and James. Sybil and James paid for hotel rooms for them at the Plaza, even though they insisted they didn't need to do that because they had already planned to go to America to meet up with Erin.

He arrived in New York with Sunil a few days after everyone else.

The next day, James received a phone call from Jackson, who was clearly scared by something. They were told to meet him in his hotel room, since he had information for them.

When they arrived to the hotel Jackson was staying at, the Hotel Chelsea, Jackson didn't respond to the investiagators repeatedly knocking on his door. James and Kit were prepared to kick Jackson's door down when he didn't answer, however, Sunil and Sybil stopped them. Instead, they got someone to open the door for them, and they found Jackson's corpse in the room and his murderers fleeing through a nearby alleyway. Kit examined the body to see if there was anything he could do.

He looked into Jackson's murder case as well as the other murders similar to it. He and Sunil looked over Sybil, James, and Mason when they entered Ju-Ju House's basement.

Kit was the doctor at the NYPD police raid and he healed anyone who had gotten injured in the raid.

#### Post-New York

Kit went up to Boston to meet up with his mother for the first time in years, alongside Erin and Sunil.

Kit's engagement to Sunil was revealed later in the session.
