Personality Profile:
Kez often views himself to be very annoying and creative, and many often find him enigmatic or curious. He is a balance of sweet and sour, being both kind and rude at the exact same time, almost like a walking contradiction to everything he says or does. He is often very nervous and anxious about what to do or say in certain situations, but while around friends, he sort of lets loose his mind and lets chaos flow. In serious situations, he does his best to keep his hope high, but his anger can and will rise, causing him to be a lot more aggressive and snappy when it comes to situations. He is often demanding while under pressure and stress, however he believes its the best way for him to get some space and to take control over the situation, in an attempt to find peace. Kez often enjoys being known or having certain amounts of attention, though too much and he gets anxious and shy. He enjoys teaching and learning new things, but he often prefers to keep at his own pace while doing such. He is interested in almost everyone's stories and backgrounds, wanting to learn and know more about each person individually and from their own personal perspective. He tries to be caring and charming, often finding joy in bringing love and hope to people. He often enjoys filling the big brother or fatherly role in many situations, though he enjoys following others more so than leading. He does his best to be honest and truthful, though sometimes he is unaware of his own nonsense.

Background:

Spoiler

Sigil/Outlands:
Kez was born and raised in the Lady's Ward of Sigil. He was raised by his single mother, who taught Kez how to survive and thrive in Sigil, and shared many of her knowledge on the planes and multiverse. Kez's mother was a Gatecrasher, and often traveled across the planes with ease, taking Kez along with her on some of her trips, and protecting him from any of the effects that the planes may produce. They also have a home in a layer of Arcadia, dedicated to connecting harmony with the Egyptian (Mulhorandi) Pantheon and the Harmonium. Most of Kez's childhood and teenage years, was him bolting around and exploring Sigil and meeting many of the MANY cultures and people that came through the Cage. Most of his education and power comes from Thoth, the great scribe, that his mother adored. Kez would often take time staying in Thebestys (Thoth's Estate) in the Outlands, learning and teaching in the schools around, as well as taking time to study whatever his mind pulled him towards. Kez adored playing around with mechanical objects, like constructs, golems, and other various mechanical clockwork. He was often very creative and mindful of what he made, attempting to invent and mold his craft into whatever he envisioned. Kez focused a good portion of his on tinkering, even joining a guild his mother help found in Sigil, that focused on artifice and invention. While in Sigil, his mother's reputation in the Harmonium, kept him protected from a lot of the wickedness that roamed around Sigil, though Kez wasn't a stranger to such and often stuck his nose into places he shouldn't. His curiosity was and is a major source of most of Kez's situations and conflicts. He often would bounce around learning or assisting those with different sorts of work and creating things for them. Kez never formally or officially joined a faction, though he was well liked in multiple factions and was even considered a Cipher by many. Kez preferred to study and learn from each of the factions of Sigil, instead of picking just one, and became very adept with each. Though he very much enjoys and loves Sigil, he often likes to take breaks from the Cage life and wander around either Arcadia, Mechanus, or Bytopia. He also wandered around the Outlands, and traveled with a small group of Thoth's followers, exploring and learning more about the complexities of the Outlands/Planes. Kez was often known to push himself and to prove to others that he was capable and reliable to keep around, often doing whatever he can to impress others and be of use. Any chant of Kezal was rumored to often be very positive, with a few outliers here and there, though nothing that would make people's heads turn.


Toril:
Though Kez is a Planeswalker, he has recently made a move to stay on Toril for a long period of time. The main reason for such is because of the Archmage Morticia Locard, who has recruited Kez, to be apart of her work, as her apprentice/assistant/partner/associate/friend. Mortiica and Kez met through some...interesting means, though you would have to ask them to hear more about such. Kez's main focus on Toril, is learning more about the weave and the figuring out Toril as a whole, understanding why so many berks wander into Sigil everyday coming from this prime, as well as study the common belief of Toril. While staying in Cormyr, Kez has found himself quite fond of the kingdom, and since he is going to be staying in it for awhile, why not attempt to do what he can to assist and work on improving Cormyr. It is no secret that Kez has issues and conflicts with Cormyr's laws about outsiders and those out of the ordinary, though Kez does his best to keep those who act a bit more like activist, out of trouble.

More information will be revealed within time.

Enemies:
It's rare for Kez to classify anyone as a true enemy, even then he doesn't show hatred towards his enemies, opting for more of a communicative approach towards his foes. Groups that often follow similar beliefs to the Vile Hunt or Malarites, may find Kez to be a threat to their cause, since Kez and his family have had a history of dismantling their blood thirsty and almost discriminatory ways of dealing with petitioners and those who seek to protect nature and wildlife. Kez has a more negative view on Lolth, often being more willing to throw a couple jabs at her in an attempt to destroy her following. Though not fully enemies, Kez dislikes Tanar'ri and their chaotic evil ways, often choosing to fight against them. Red Wizards are more antagonistic towards Kez, for being a follower of Thoth, though Kez often wishes to find alternatives to their conflicts, he doesn't mind striking against them and their belief.
