PERSONALITY
Kaeya is very much a man who lives with multiple masks. He chooses to keep a confident and charming personality. He often chooses whatever means is required in order to get what he needs through strategical thinking, willing to risk or trick people in order to ensure his plans work. Much of Kaeya’s poking and prodding of people is to see where people truly lie, keeping a more guarded approach as he assesses them. His overthinking and calculation does cause him to be lead into more risk-taking behaviour. However, he does take his work seriously and, even with his more trickier methods, has a particular dislike for anyone who threatens families. He can be seemingly quite relaxed and confident, a bravado he wears well. However, there’s a great deal of overthinking and pressure he puts on himself, still torn between whether he should fight for Khaenri’ah or Monstadt. Kaeya, all in all, tries to make himself more complicated of a personality than he actually is. Overall, he is someone who overthinks due to believing that he can’t trust anyone fully, but underneath is plagued by the detachment of people around him and the loneliness that follows that. He makes himself appear to be much more adjusted and confident in himself when in reality he is a person torn by indecision and stressed. He both wants connection but feels he’s unable to, clamming up using his own masks in order to hide his weaknesses.

APPEARANCE

VISUAL:Kaeya is someone who, despite his post, has a very bold outfit. He wears more flashy outfits, even his calvary uniform reveals a bit of his chest. The man very much likes to wear fashionable things, but nothing outrageously impractical. His major staple is his blue earring on his left ear, preferring accessories that aren’t too loose or would get in the way of his job. He will never not wear a eyepatch in his wardrobe, something that is apart of every outfit, and something he won’t divulge why he wears it.

AURAL:Kaeya speaks with a mix between flowery language and a politeness that makes sense for his upbringing in a Mondstadt noblemen’s home. He is quite the smooth talker, preferring sweet words than anything that may give away what he is wanting to actually say. This makes him quite hard to read, as he will also divulge information (false or truth) in order to achieve his goals. He makes himself out to be rather friendly and laid back though.

OLFACTORY: Kaeya is a knight but also second in command of a nation, meaning he does need to keep himself clean and much prefers that appearance.. He is not one to look unkempt in any way. He smells faintly of calla lilies specifically, a plant native to Mondstadt.

DEMEANOUR: Kaeya carries himself in a very laid back way, actively keeping a friendly but reserved position. He often keeps his guard up a tad while trying to keep this illusion in order to ensure that he is actually understanding the person he is dealing with. HE won’t be the one to give any proper information until he knows the person he is speaking to, believing knowledge is power. Once he has some to a conclusion, his perspective will shift depending on what he feels best for himself. He may keep up the friendly appearances with an enemy in order to better trick or put them in a situation where he can get something out of them. With a friend, he will keep up a guard but try to refrain from doing anything of active harm. His mask may slip a bit if he meets someone he truly detests.



PERMISSIONS
In Character

PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Kaeya is someone who keeps people at arms length. However, in certain situations, there may be possibilities for him to actually put his guard down.

PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Absolutely, but don’t expect him to be an ice bridge. He will fight back, even if he struggles.

RELATIONSHIPS: Kaeya can appear to be quite charismatic and polite. He is no stranger to speaking flattery to someone, but doesn't always come off outwardly flirty. However, he does have a shy side underneath all that bravado, which can make him stumble a bit verbally. Kaeya likes to keep people at arms length and work strategically and is no stranger to manipulation and testing people on who they are as people. However, there is a possibility of a relationship if someone could worm their way through the cracks in his shield. This will be no easy task, so be prepared.

PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: Kaeya is someone who has a lot more calculations and overthinking that goes on in his mind if he is psychically read. His more easy going and relaxed appearance doesn't match the calculations and questioning of people's motives of both allies and enemies. It's also very possible to find out via psychic information that he may withdraw certain bits of information towards others in order to work through a kind of scheme or plan that requires information to be withheld.

MAGICAL INFORMATION: Kaeya is able to summon large ice crystals and barriers using an object called a vision, an item granted by beings called Archons that gives him the ability to manipulate and create ice. However, this ice is regular (albeit big ice). Kaeya has the ability to make these summoned ice float and use as a projectile, but only for a short time. Kaeya mainly is able to work on the defensive than offensive, mainly his attacks being more unrefined. When push comes to shove, Kaeya’s main specialty is defensive, being able to heal minor wounds on himself only and shields.

MEDICAL INFORMATION: He is fit and in good health. He has some cuts, both from swords and from burns, on his torso, thanks to both his backstory and his work. Overall, he is in good medical condition and doesn’t have as many scars as he could thanks to his vision.

OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Talk of Khaenri’ah and traitors very much can be an uncomfortable conversation that he will dodge with charming words that don’t really give much hinting to his inner thoughts. Diluc and Kaeya’s eyepatch are also a sore spot he will outright try to parry, though he will willing to indulge in talking about his brother. Finally, trust is something he finds difficult to talk about but will carry on a conversation as best he can, though not outwardly stating what he thinks on the topic. Being considered alone or highlighting a flaw in his masks can very much set him into unease, quickly trying to slip back behind said masks. (Feel free to poke him)

OUT OF CHARACTER

BACKTAGGING: Absolutely! That moment is frozen in time, is it not?

THREADHOPPING: Ask first, please!

FOURTHWALLING: I’ll be honest, I’ve never seen it but I’m willing to take a look and see how that works. We will see how Kaeya takes it.

NOT INTERESTED IN: Romance or sexual content. I am semi-sexually repulsed. If you are interested and our characters are getting along very well, if things are carefully worked out OOC, then there’s a possibility for romance. Sexual content is most likely a no. In the same breath, I write a Ragbros Kaeya and thus am very much not interested in Kaeluc. However, please don’t take this a DNI if you like Kaeluc, just please don’t pressure me on it.
