KASPER VAN ZANT
GENERAL
Name: Kasper Van Zant
Age: twenty two
Birth Season: Winter
Occupation: Soldier
Citizen Status: Commoner
PHYSICAL
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 140 lbs.
Body Description: Kasper is a small young man, dark hair like most of Nevermere, and green eyes. While he appears small in size Kasper is in great shape, well toned and rippled with muscles that come usually on small framed people. People would say his biggest physical trait is his big fox like smile.
PERSONAL
]Alignment: Chaotic Good
Reputation: Kasper is a wild soul, a restless spirit and known to be as reckless as his body will naturally withstand. He is the family dreamer the one who always dreams about what could get them rich out of the dumps, some of these said dreams come from his quickly thought out schemes which he involves the whole family in. Always the loudest in the room Kasper usually has zero issue speaking his mind, but he knows his place in society and can hold his tongue when in the presence of those above him.
Loyalty is important to him, especially being loyal to those of the Van Zant name expecting and preaching (like his father did) about 'family. if we never have a coin or two to rub together nor food in our bellies, we always got family'. Second to them he is a commoner man always coming to aid those in his poor community, a self appointed folk hero so to speak.
However Kasper does have a small temperament problem, quick to get huffy and puffy especially when he feels bullied by better off folk or nobles, sometimes annoyed by his siblings. Now he hasn't ever lashed out at people above his station in life Kasper let's that pile up and pile up. He has a little man complex so that makes him extra competitive or sensitive to see bigger dumb dumbs showing off.
Combat Experience: Kasper has a natural athletic ability as he has always been fast, agile, and strong. Before his mandatory service while he was raised in the streets Kasper could scrap with the best of the adults and teenager's, he may have lost more than he won but they gave him due respect for stamina and gusto. To this day he keeps his father's switch blade tucked somewhere hidden on his person.
Kasper wanted to skip his mandatory military service but at twenty two he still serves with due diligence. While he has honed his natural fighting/hand to hand combat Kasper has picked up two hand axes which is most favored weapon of choice, recently he has delved into picking up a flail and shield combo (the shield being of his own design).
When it comes to combat training Kasper is a bit of a sponge so the young man has dabbled in siege weapons and demolition training. Kasper has a knack for warfare strategy coming from street fights with other gangs who always vied for the Van Zant family trade.
MAGIC
Kasper is young enough to fall under the werewolf curse, yet it is dormant. Should the curse be activated his wolf form will be that of a white shaggy fur color keeping his smallness even though he is still rather large for a werewolf. His eyes also retain their green color.

Tale:
Kasper Van Zant and his twin sister were the first Van Zant children born between Joren Van Zant (his Father was previous head of the Van Zant clan, like his Father and his Father before him) and Siske Van Zant, two miners. Kasper had always been a lively type kid always moving, always into something, and always just him and his twin sister. However that changed several times. Lots of times. He and his twin are the oldest out of fifteen! They were the care providers which explains why they all stayed in trouble.
Since being a Van Zant came with the social stigma of trouble that is where Kasper stayed mostly, just before joining the Nevermere military as a cadet Kasper avoided a big mess of trouble that cost his Father a two year prison sentence. As a wake up call Kasper decided it would be best to do his military time and found out he could enjoy being both a military man and a small time criminal.
Three years ago, just a few months after the birth of his youngest siblings, a horrible mine collapsed killing about sixty miners and trapping ten. Their Father was killed with the sixty and their Mother lasted along with the other miners for another day before the mine collapsed again claiming the other ten. While crushing to the Van Zant family, Kasper and his twin took to picking up as the ones in charge of the family. Today they have kept their siblings alive and mostly out of trouble while taking on a few more younger cousins after some Uncle's and Aunts came to be claimed by disease such as miners lung or black lung as they call it.
