## History

### Childhood

In accordance to the rulings of the fireborne oligarchy, after she was born, Kim was sent off the island while her twin sister, Ember, stayed and was brought up to be the family's next heir. Meanwhile, Kim was brought up by a family friend, whom Kim was always told was her grandmother.

Kim's "grandmother" was told to not let her get too far from her home for fear of her being seen alive, so most of her childhood was spent reading about the outside world and studying things about it. Not only that, but she was also never supposed to find out about her magic. Her curiosity about the world outside only grew and she longed to see what it was like with her own eyes. Then one night after her 18th birthday, she began toying with her newly found abilities. She was clueless and scared at first, but soon became comfortable, realizing she was in control. She had finally grown too tired of staying in one place and not knowing anything, so she packed a bag of supplies (including some of her books), made sure she had her embrite bracelet on her wrist, and left without looking back.

### Kim's Journey

#### Back to Celest

Her first stop was to visit home, letting her magic and the embrite in her bracelet guide her. By this time, her parents had both died and Ember was now in the family's royal placement, as was planned for her to be. Kim is captured on the shores due to the fireborne not being fond of visitors after their long hostile history with the mainland, and her and Ember meet at the royal court. Kim realizes she's like them and proves herself to be by showing the royal court of fireborne heirs the little knowledge of her magic she has at the time. Ember is suspicious, finds out that she's her twin from one of the elder retired fireborne, and finally banishes her in secret to avoid her trying to take her place and to avoid the island's residents and her fellow royal court members from casting judgment on her.

#### Back to the Mainland and Link and Blue

After returning to the mainland, Kim runs into Link and Blue, and the three of them begin travelling together. Kim finds Link farther east where they were starving looking for anything to eat. Not trusting any other option enough, they incredibly reluctantly tried to eat Kim, but she noticed they were hungry and just gave them food instead, starting their friendship. Ember isn't at ease with Kim still being alive and still able to usurp her, so she sends assassins after her. When they come back to her empty handed, she decides to try and go after her herself. Little does she know, she's not the only one after the trio. Also during this period, Kim realizes Ember isn't ruling her home well, and vows to herself that she'll put an end to her terrible reign. However, she's not willing to take her sister's place for fear of being tied down again.

#### Moya and the Midnight Forest

Along the way, the trio enters the Midnight Forest, and after getting lost in the foliage, Moya eventually finds them and guides them to her village. Before leading them out, her and Kim become good friends over their shared curiosity of the world because of their similar lives (neither were allowed to leave home).

#### The Final Problem

*(Yet to be Released)* Kim sets herself free.

### The Future

#### Moya

Eventually, much farther in the future after all of the trio's original problems are solved and they've settled down around the outskirts of the CaPITal, Kim goes back a few more times to visit Moya and gets to know her more and more. After a while, she asks Kim to assist her with a ritual that allows her to leave the Midnight Forest, which is successful. After they escape, Kim and Moya travel around the planet together to show Moya the outside world. Over time, they fall in love and Kim is unsure and very confused about it because she's never felt feelings this strong for anyone before; it's very new for her. She talks through it with Blue and Link who agree and tell her they think she's in love with Moya as well. Finally, Kim speaks with Moya about it, very gently for fear of getting her hopes up and Kim backing out, and she tells her very gently back that she feels the same, marking the beginning of their relationship.

After enough time of being together, Kim and Moya decide to do both of their home region's marriage ceremonies: The Hearth Ceremony from the Island of Celest, and the Bonding Ceremony from the Midnight Forest.

#### Dawn

After the two had been welded/bonded for some time, they come across a young girl in a broken down carriage on their travels. After unsuccessfully attempting to have her come out of the wreckage, Kim and Moya decided to settle down with a camp set up nearby. They left the hungry little girl some soup, which they made for dinner, hoping it would coax her out. Which it does. Then following the gaining of more of the girl's trust, they took her to the nearby town to ask around if anyone knows her parents. The couple is unable to find the girl's parents, so Moya suggests taking her in. Kim says she's up for it, but only if the girl agrees. Figuring the two have only helped her so far, she agrees. She is called Dawn. Since the two had been travelling for so long together and had seen many places, they decide to finally settle down at Kim's home on the outskirts of the CaPITal so they have a more stable place to raise their little family. However, they still get out, neither Kim nor Moya can be kept in one place for too long without them getting restless.

#### Glory

While the couple is traveling in the cliffs, they come across a very young ornithogo girl who's wing is stuck under a rock and injured. It appeared as though her family of ornithogos was flying over the mountain and she was tossed down from her parents by the wind currents, causing a small rock avalanche in the process. When the two found her, she was frightened by them and wouldnt let them near. At least until Kim used her spirit form to calm her down. She figured it would help because her wings would remind her of family. She'd have to keep it up however, or else the small ornithogo would end up frightened again, and she did despite how very draining it was. She was very fussy as well, but Kim managed to get her wing free from the rock, and get her to let Moya wrap her wing. After a while, figuring the parents weren't coming back for her, thinking they thought she was dead and having no idea where they could be, the couple decided to take the small ornithogo girl in with them as well, calling her Morning Glory, Glory for short. Kim would later use her spirit form to teach her how to fly as well.

## Kim's Fireborne Magic

Kim is slightly different from other fireborne in which she began her training much later than normal, having only discovered her powers after turning 18. It's very unusual for any fireborne to just begin training past the age of 7, as that's when emotional control and stability is most applicable.

Other than that, Kim is an average fireborne, she's no outlier strength wise. Her spirit is the phoenix, or fire bird, symbolic for rebirth, as opposed to her sister's dragon spirit, symbolizing destruction. Her spirit form, which she earns later in her story, consists of a pair of feathered, bright orange and ashen, smoky wings and tail feathers, for stability. She has the ability to ignite them at her will as well. Most of the time however, she just uses them for faster transportation when she doesn't feel like walking.

Kim's powers include:

* Phoenix spirit form
* Pyrokinesis (As all fireborne have)
* Regeneration (Special for the spirit of the phoenix, only works so long as her soul fire is still burning aka if her soul is still alive)

## AU's

### Reverse AU

Everything plays out mostly the same for Kim (in the beginning at least), but the key difference in this au is the different decisions she makes and the ways she herself is different than canon Kim because of those decisions.

#### Childhood

Her childhood is the same as canon, with the exception of her being a little rowdier than her more calm and gentle canon counterpart. However this time when she finds out she's far from home, instead of going to explore Celest Island, she's heading there for revenge. Her feelings of being unwanted are much more intense here than in canon, and it drives her to make people regret tossing her aside. To do that for the people of Celest who tossed her aside at birth, she's aiming to kill her sister to prove to them they chose the wrong one to keep. However, the first attempt, her arrows miss, she gets her arm badly burned from a combination of attacks from those trying to protect Ember and her own uncontrollable rage towards herself, and she's forced to flee the island. She vows to come back and finish the job when she's stronger and has a better understanding of her magic.

#### Reverse Kim's Journey

##### Link

After returning to the mainland, the story goes pretty similarly to canon with a few minor tweaks. First she runs into Link who keeps trying to flirt with her and catch her unaware; her version of hunting as the lotophagi do. However, its always ineffective and only annoys Kim because she's still not one for romantic relationships, even more so here since in this au she's both completely aromantic and asexual as opposed to her canonical demiromanticism and asexualism. Eventually after not being able to shake the persistent lotophagi, the two become friends realizing they have similar interests in common, gaining a better understanding of each other. Link finally learns to respect the fireborne lagomorph's space as well.

##### Blue

The two meet Blue a little later. She's not much of a problem and mostly just follows along. She's very quiet as well, so she has the tendency to sneak up on the other two. Overall, she just does her own thing, keeping a close eye on the other two. Eventually, Blue and Link break away from Kim to travel with some new friends they've made, Bombshell and Grenade.

##### Moya and the Midnight Forest

While Blue and Link are gone, Kim encounters the Midnight Forest on her own. Because this is the reverse au, the forest is much different than it is in canon. Kim wanders into the forest and, after getting herself lost, she settles down and decides to camp out a while, before being found by Moya. Moya, doing as she's told by her elders, tries luring Kim back to her village by flirting with her, which of course still doesn't have any effect on Kim. However, she keeps trying and the two eventually become friends, making her settle down.

She still has to provide the elders with a sacrifice though, so Moya steps up to take Kim's place instead despite her strong loyalty to the forest, saying she won't sacrifice Kim. When she explains this to Kim, she think's she's stupid for pulling something like that for her, and doesn't understand why she's doing it. Kim decides to leave Moya to her fate to save herself until at the last minute when she convinces herself to go save her. The ritual was about to begin, but Kim secretly cut the vines holding her to a tree, setting her free. Moya was obviously relieved she had returned, but was still rather bitter. Kim tells her that they'll speak about it when she's safe, which quiets her for the time being.

After sneaking off farther into the forest, leaving the village to search for her, they quickly perform the ritual that disconnects Moya from the forest, barely finishing before the village finally finds the two of them. Kim quickly grabs Moya before using her wings to escape as fast as possible, hurting her ankle in the process, nearly dropping Moya if the wind hadn't caught her wings. Kim flies up and out of the forest, Moya clinging to her, eyes wide at her first real sight of the outside world.

When things settle, they talk and Kim explains she'll be sticking by her side and won't leave her again, but Moya is unsure about believing her. Kim explains that her eyes glow when she's meaning what she says (she has an emotional connection to her words), and Moya begins to understand. She patches up Kim's ankle as they prepare for the days ahead of them.

Over time, the two of them got more and more comfortable with each other, becoming closer and closer friends. Although as they were getting closer and closer, Kim was getting more insecure. After realizing how much of a weak spot she has for Moya, she began pushing her away hoping to cover it up. This caused tension between the two of them because Moya wants to know what happened and Kim won't answer her. The tension keeps building until finally Kim, in the middle of a yelling match, admits she loves Moya, and the two of them freeze. After that, they talk through their emotions much more calmly, both learning to be more vulnerable. After a while, they end up getting together. However, in reverse they don't wanna do the ritual/ceremony because neither wants to associate with her home anymore.

#### Reverse Kim's Magic

She's incredibly passionate about learning to control her power, much more so than her canon counterpart, and actually earns her spirit form much faster than she does in canon as well. However, she never feels like she's strong enough. Canonically speaking, Kim's emotions are usually very gentle and easy for her to control, a little weaker. Reverse Kim on the other hand has very powerful emotions, and is very reckless about the way she handles them, but she handles them none-the-less. On top of that, canon Kim only has her bracelet with a sizable chunk of embrite embedded into it, while reverse Kim has a wide variety of embrite accessories on her at all times, only further amplifying her strength.

### Royal AU

In the royalty au, Kim is the princess of the kingdom of Celest while her sister, Ember, is the reigning queen, having taken the throne after their parents' death. Which of course Kim doesn't mind in the slightest, she absolutely doesn't want to be queen. However, she doesn't exactly want to be princess either with the way she's treated. Ember is incredibly protective of her, but of course it's all just to ensure the royal bloodline stays alive, as she was taught to do. She doesn't allow Kim to leave the palace by herself without knowing exactly where she's going and that it's ok for her to be there (although, she still sneaks out a lot), and strictly tries to make sure she's presenting herself in a way that keeps up with the family's prestigious reputation. Kim doesn't exactly enjoy royal life, but she puts up with it.

#### Blue and Link

Thankfully, Kim isn't very lonely. Link is her personal guard while Blue is her lady in waiting. The three of them have been close for a long time, ever since they were both assigned to help Kim with every day things. The two of them also like Kim because she treats them as equals, as opposed to most royals, so they help her get away with things like sneaking out. However, often times whenever Ember enters the room, they have to scramble to look as though Kim's having them actually do their jobs.

Blue and Link themselves didn't always get along however. They used to disagree on everything, and eventually had a point where they weren't on speaking terms. Kim spoke with both of them separately, then finally had them discuss together, and they were on better terms again having communicated their feelings about the other. Kim left them alone for a while, but began noticing they were much closer than ever. When she brought it up though, they would always push it off like it was nothing. Soon however, she would learn they've fallen in love with each other and are dating.

#### Moya

One day while she's sneaking out to the same garden between kingdoms she always does, she runs into princess Moya of her neighboring kingdom. At first, she's afraid of being caught, and ducks into some bushes to hide, but when she peeks over, she see's Moya has done the same. They were both sneaking out and doing something they weren't supposed to. They introduced themselves to each other and decided they enjoyed each others company because they're both curious about what goes on outside their palace walls.

Kim began sneaking out to see her more and more. Eventually the two became close enough that she started developing feelings for her. She was nervous to confess because she had never felt any feelings for anyone like this before, and knew she probably had suitors and knew Ember was trying to get her to marry one of her suitors, but she was in love with Moya, so she told her so. She felt the same way towards her, so the two began dating in secret, agreeing to keep seeing each other in the garden.

One day Kim brought Link and Blue with her and Moya brought Ivy, her personal guard. They introduced each other and explained why they had been sneaking off so frequently. They all agreed not to tell their superiors.

Eventually, Moya ends up being kidnapped by some criminal, and Kim goes to save her. Both kingdoms guards are now after them because Kim shouldn't be out because it's dangerous with someone having gone missing, and Moya's guards are looking for her. Kim saves her, and both kingdoms agree to let them marry. They can finally stop being secretive about their relationship.

## Trivia

* Kim is my second oldest classic OC, created mid February of 2017; she's right behind Katy, who's the oldest, created a year or two earlier.
* Like my most of my other classic OC's, Kim was originally a cat girl.
* Kim, along with her sister Ember, is the one of the only OC's of mine who wasn't originally associated with an indie game.
* Kim plays the drums in the band that her Link and Blue made to have some fun while having nothing to do. Some of her skills come from being taught while in the Midnight Forest.
* I changed Kim's voice to my own because she was originally a self insert and I didn't want to keep that going, but the one I had chosen for her wasn't a good enough fit.
