Physical Description: Kaito is fairly striking when it comes to their looks. They've got the whole red-head package: bright red locks, pale skin, freckles, and blue eyes. Other than that, they're pretty average in height, at about 4' 7" (139cm). They try not to dress to stand out, either, usually not bothering with accessories. They do have their ears pierced, but they only ever wear simple studs.

Mental Description: Kaito is a huge loner. Because they have felt different from everyone else as long as they can remember, they don't really bother trying to relate to their peers. They stick to themselves when it comes to emotions, work, and everything in between. However, underneath that exterior, they've always got something on their mind. Mostly what they're going to eat, but that's beside the point.

Biography: Kaito is a muggle-born wizard from Kinsale, Ireland. Just a day after giving birth to them, Kaito's mother passed away due to complications with her pregnancy. Thus, the child was raised by their father Aaron, who was always a lot more outgoing than Kaito ever wanted to be, dragging them out to playdates or the park to meet new friends. He worked a dull office job, only ever finding joy in the only other member of his family. He struggled immensely with grief and always longed for another son or daughter to look after, however, he was never able to find love with another person after the passing of Kaito's mother. Aaron did his best throughout Katio's early childhood, but was never quite able to understand that all they really wanted was support from a distance. Kaito often felt smothered at home and thus remained separated from all of their peers at school. Generally speaking, the same trend seems to be continuing in their journey to Hogwarts. Kaito doesn't know either sets of their grandparents, having never heard from their maternal side, and their paternal side having died in a car accident many years before their birth.

First Instance of Magic: Christmas time was always somewhat of a nightmare for Kaito. Their father was a big believer in going all out for the holidays, and thus always insisted upon dressing up for family pictures, decorating as much as possible, and cooking the most beautiful meals. Kaito never quite appreciated this about Aaron, but tolerated a good bit of the festivities in order to see their father truly happy. As far as they were aware, the holidays reminded him of their mother, and so they took the idea and ran with it, always taking Christmas as a time to honor the woman they never really knew.
It was Christmas day, and Aaron was busy cooking a feast fit for way more people than just him and his child. A 6 year-old Kaito sat at the table, waiting to help their father if he so requested. They were already quite exhausted, having tolerated their father's smothering for the better part of the day. But as always, they pushed through for the holidays. They watched as their father buzzed around the kitchen, multitasking what Kaito thought to be way too many pots and pans at once. This proved to be a true assumption when Aaron moved to focus on the potatoes. While their father was preoccupied, something caught Kaito's eye. A flame from one of the burners on the stove was getting higher than it normally did. Kaito immediately ran over to the stove to try and put the flame out, but didn't really know how to do so. By this point, the child was more than panicked and couldn't seem to get their father's attention over the egregiously loud Christmas music. They fanned the flame, unsure of what else to do, but the fire only grew higher and higher.
Just as it seemed to lick their hand, the flame disappeared. Kaito stared at the stove before realizing that all four of the burners had somehow been turned off. They glanced at Aaron, wondering if he had somehow managed to do this from across the kitchen. The 6 year-old simply returned to their spot at the table, however decided to watch the stove until dinner was all done. Soon, Aaron saw that the burners had been switched off, however, he simply assumed he had forgotten to turn them on in the first place.
Kaito didn't assume that. They knew better. The instance never really left their mind, and from that Christmas forward, they always insisted on helping and being in the kitchen the entire time. The flame had scared them, but the mystery of its disappearance was almost worse.
