'''STYLE AND NIMBUS''': during casting, the quiet and calculated Locke changes. A match is struck and the Fire inside is quickly lit. He makes wide stances for air as his body begins to sweat. The immediate area around him warms as he becomes particularly focussed in his casting, and becomes too hot to touch. It is therefore appropriate that his most powerful Rote allows him to become a walking persona of his own passionate flames. | '''STYLE AND NIMBUS''': during casting, the quiet and calculated Locke changes.

'''APPEARANCE''': Locke is a thin, lean individual, keeping his blonde hair cut short. He wears thin, square, reading glasses that he started wearing in high school. Locke carries two glasses cases, one black for his glasses, and the other navy blue for the Every Door Key. Ever the polite professional, Locke dresses conservativly and in a business manner whenever he's not out in the field, preferring dark suits. When he is on the job, he tends to wear worn jeans and short-sleeved shirts. | '''APPEARANCE''': Locke is a thin, lean individual, keeping his blonde hair cut short.

'''BACKGROUND''':<br/> | '''BACKGROUND''':<br/> | ||
− | Locke, | + | Locke, Born Kliment Kuzentsov in the outskirts of Stalingrad shortly before the fall of the USSR, was brought to the United States with his family for a better opportunity of life. His father Dimitri taught him early the benefits of his adoptive country, especially education, government, and religion. Kliment, who went by the Americanized Kyle, found much more interest in the former than the latter. Always a curious and eager mind, he always looked for more information than his teachers could give. |
Even through his collegiate years and up until his eventual awakening, the more he understood how the universe worked, the less he understood why. It wasn't until he went to religious studies before the why became clear. The universe worked the way it did because it was willed that way by something beyond the mortal world. He also saw that those who had the desire and understanding could do the same. | Even through his collegiate years and up until his eventual awakening, the more he understood how the universe worked, the less he understood why.
