Malachai Parker

**Malachai "Kai" Parker** (born **1972**) is the main character of the *Malachai Franchise*. When Kai grew up, his true nature as a siphon was revealed, and his parents isolated him from the rest of his siblings, and called him an "abomination."

After the death of his youngest sister, Kai has been raising his only niece, Elizabeth for fourteen years. Finally he met a woman named Katherine, and soon married her.

When their biological daughter, Isabella grew up, she was eventually possessed by Kai's angry mother as revenge. To save his daughter, Kai had the spirit of his mother placed in him. After this event happened, Kai's memory seemed to have been completely erased.

After the four-year time jump, Malachai is completely aware of what he is and doing. After having the spirit removed by his body by Kaiaphas Parker and Brandon North, Kai has been suffering from supernatural consequences, which are currently unknown.

## Early Life

Malachai was born in Portland, Oregon in 1972 as the son of Joshua Parker and twin brother of Kaiaphas. As a siphoner, he was shunned by his family, even revealing to his daughters that he wasn't allowed to touch anyone. As twins of the Gemini Coven, Kai and Kaiaphas were expected to merge. However, Joshua knew that Kai would win the merge given his powers, and knew that Kai could not lead the coven. Due to this, Joshua and his wife kept having children until another pair of twins was born.

## Personality

Being shunned by his family and being called an "abomination", Kai grew up to become a sociopath with a penchant for murder and mayhem. However, when he meets Katherine, and they begin having children together, their daughters , he tries to change for them, as he promised them that they wouldn't grow up like he did: unloved. He promised them that he would always keep them safe.

## Powers & Abilities

Despite having no magical power of his own, he appears to have paid attention during his coven's teachings, as he was quickly able to use his powers to cast spells, showing that he has the knowledge required. In addition to having the ability to siphon magic, Kai can sense magic in others, but this power was limited to being close enough to touch the person he intends on sensing the power on.

However, the little time he had spent practicing magic has caused him to not be able to focus his abilities very well. It took him a few tries before he could get spells to do what they were supposed to do, however, after that he is capably of easily using them.
