    Name: Lord James Kynaston II
    Gender: Male
    Species: Angel with no wings
    Age: 42
    Team: Trainer
    Description:

    Lord Kynaston is a tall, gaunt figure with only the slightest hints of his age showing on his face. Trusses of golden locks flow down from his head and rest on his shoulders. His face, which could be described as "conventionally attractive" is locked in an almost permanent half-smile, leading to those around Kynaston assuming that he knows much more than he actually does. The nobleman's frame could still be described as muscular if the viewer were to squint. Truth be told, Kynaston stopped caring about his strength years ago. What's left of his physique is merely the result of Kynaston's fierce campaign against ill-health. Lucky for Kynaston, he never had a taste for liquor, and as such, still maintains a flat stomach.

    The nobleman is typically clad in a high-powered business suit. As what has essentially become leading the free world, Kynaston puts great effort into looking sharp no matter where he goes. From a perfectly cut shirt and jacket, to proper length pan tlegs, to custom designed cufflinks, he has everything necessary to be taken seriously amongst the high-class. In his ever decreasing free time, he likes to lounge around in whatever's comfortable. Ever since he had to start wearing suits every day of his life, Kynaston decided that whenever the suit was optional, he would dress as comfortably as possible.

    Kynaston carries no weapons, that's what his security team is for.

    Personality:

    Lord James Kynaston is ultimately a pragmatist and an idealist. He truly believes in creating a better world for everyone, no matter how long that will take nor how hard that will be. He prizes incremental successes over zero-sum games, and is always capable of finding the progress in a bad break. For Kynaston, no goal worth attaining is beyond reason and is always looking dialogue with those in his way--instead viewing them as "future partners." Because of this viewpoint, to Kynaston, no one is an enemy--just less friendly. He is very difficult to anger, much less get a rise out of. While helpful, his even-keeled emotional state generally prevents Kynaston from joking around as much as he would like. On top of it all, the nobleman is incredibly well-read and devotes most of his free-time to a novel. His family affectionately refers to him as "a book with legs."

    Background:

    Lord James II of House Kynaston was born the only son of his parents, James I and Serras, Lord and Lady Kynaston respectively. Born with only a minor birth defect--no wings--Kynaston experienced a normal childhood for a nobleman. Kynaston grew up in Castle Pax, the seat of the Kynastons' power. The Kynastons were an ancient royal family that had little remaining power other their immense wealth and surrounding land. Like most noblemen, Kynaston's life revolved around a flurry of private tutors, structured play time with children of similar classes, and entertaining the high-powered elites of the world. The young Kynaston loathed conflict amongst both his peers and his parents' associates. After feeling powerless to stop it for most of his youth, Kynaston had had enough and requested that his father hire him a rhetoric tutor. His new mentor, Cicero Cicerone, taught Kynaston everything he needed to know about rhetoric, speech, conflict resolution, and negotiation. Through these lessons, Kynaston realized that there was no conflict in the world too big to be solved with words. The invention of language meant that violence never had to be used again!

    James I Kynaston passed not long after the young lord's 24th birthday, leading to his ascension to the lordship. Now Lord Kynaston, the nobleman became incredibly involved in Team Trainer, an international peacekeeping force that had been started by a Lord Kynaston several generations ago. The group was quick to promote Kynaston to their Wise Council. Within the Council, Kynaston proved himself as a skilled orator and leader, single-handedly solving many of the disputes on the legislative floor. Come the next election cycle, Lord Kynaston was elected Consul of Team Trainer at Age 28. Since then, Kynaston has served three successive terms and is now in the middle of his fourth. As Consul, Kynaston spearheaded a humanitarian movement by Team Trainer to develop poorer areas of the world and end poverty. Team Trainer Knights were sent out all across the lands to help organize communities and properly distribute funds from the Trainer Foundation to have the greatest effect.

    Kynaston was surprised to have been woken up in the middle of the night one night to be told that all 62 World Leaders had been killed in a single night and that the entire world's leadership now fell on his and Team Trainer's shoulders. Kynaston called an emergency meeting of the Wise Council to determine Team Trainer's next best course of action. After six hours of intense deliberation, the Wise Council has empowered Kynaston to enforce the following agenda:

    • Maintain world peace
    • Begin restoring a legitimate and democratic world government as soon as possible
    • Prevent the attacks from proliferating further bigotry against the Mechari people


    Through the dialogues to come, Kynaston had no doubt that he would be successful in his mission.

    There's a Starman waiting in the sky!
    He'd like to come and meet us, but he thinks he'd blow our minds.
    There's a Starman waiting in the sky!
    He's told us not to blow it 'cause he knows it's all worthwhile.
