Personality

At a glance: Flickerkick is quiet but friendly cat, passionate and single-minded about his interests. He can have a bit of a temper, but is quick to cool down as well.

Flickerkick has defined his life by his metalsmithing work, having found his passion early on his life. He is constantly working in his forge, polishing his skills and trying to expand on his knowledge. While he is introverted and tends to spend a lot of time alone in his forge, he is not shy and always willing to say what's on his mind. He is hardworking and focused but can be single-minded and too set in his ways at times. Flickerkick does have a bit of a temper and is unfraid to say his opinion, but he doesn't tend to hold grudges, seeing arguments as simply another way of talking through an issue.

History

Born in 2541 PA

Born as a singlet to the Oathcourt pair of Radpidsting and Antlegs, Flickerkit grew up as a lonely kit, not that he noticed. His sole companion was his familiar, a red-shouldered hawk named Quizzical (Quiz for short). He was more than happy to explore and run around camp on his own. His phobia of centipeded started due to an incident when he was a young kit where he tripped into a mudpuddle filled with worms. When he first saw the sparks of a forge and a smith shaping raw ore into metal, he had found his life's calling. The rest is history.
His training was rather normal, with him spending entirely too much time learning smithing and not honing his hunting and fighting skills. He remains a rather lacklustre hunter to this day but is formidable in a fight due to the strenght he's developed form forging and his skill with using fire magic. Oftentimes, he gets too caught up in his work and his familiar will have to catch something for him to eat. Flickerkick got his name from his tendency to use kicking up fire to heat his forge as well as an attack. Now that he's a magi-knight, Flickerkick is aiming towards opening his own smithing shop and becoming even more skilled with metalcrafting.
