 * plans= Well with Titos going off to bigger and better things, that doesn't leave Kairo in the best position. I'm thinking he'll manage to land another busboy job alongside Iro. I'm game for them going vigilante, still a lil unsure of how i wanna go about it yet. Kairo and Iluq are too adorbs to not keep rping them, maybe he'll try to move in with her cuz he hates sleeping in an empty apartment. Idk how Iluq will take the vigilante thing tho. Ugh he also needs a probending buddy, if he can juggle all the other stuff.

 * Appearance=
 * Personality=Kairo is typically a fun loving guy, loving the idea of spending his days running around the city. He's somewhat persistent, obnoxious and irresponsible. Being "Chaotic Good" Kairo typically does the right thing, values the freedom of himself and others and hates extensive planning and order. Preferring to wing it, he nearly always listens to and obeys his brother Titos.

Having an immense amount of respect and loyalty to him. But Kairo normally views his brother as the only person he truly obeys, having a hard time with taking orders from strangers and authority figures he has no personal connection to. This makes it hard for Kairo to keep a job, he wants to help his brother bring in money. But his lazy tendencies and dislike of being bossed around typically gets him fired.

Moving on, he's very laid back and doesn't mind seeming odd or strange to some people. Causing him to have a habit of taking naps outside, sleepbending/walking and feigning insanity just for a quick laugh. Kairo hates to see people restrained, oppressed and upset. Befriending Kairo means you'll have someone who would protect you, your freedom and always try to make you laugh.

 * History=Jugo and Karin were a young married couple who recently arrived to Republic City. At first their lives were amazing, but due to unforeseen pregnancy. They had to make some sacrifices, both being no older than 23. The two weren’t ready for parenthood. They named their firstborn son Titos. Jugo worked hard at a local factory to support their child. Sometimes the two struggled to make ends meet, but they had eachother.

A few years later, Titos was 5 and he even had a 2 year old brother named Kairo. Jugo and Karin’s marriage began to falter when she suspected him of cheating on her. She tried to get him to admit to it, but he just wouldn’t and there was no evidence. Bills began piling up and the family was in debt again. Jugo kept disappearing and Karin began getting immensely stressed out. It even got to the point where Karin started beating Titos. Too young to try and do anything.

Next year it only got worse, Titos began to live in terrible fear of his mother. Their father having long since abandoned them. But one day when Karin tried to torment Kairo, Titos’ firebending made itself known. He fired a powerful stream of flame which led to his mother’s demise.

Kairo being 3 at the time would never retain these memories, only Titos had the burden. When the police arrived, he claimed they were robbed. The cops present weren’t that bright, so they believed his story and were given up to a local orphanage. But Titos wasn’t willing to trust anyone. If his mother repeatedly beat him and his father just abandoned him, he couldn’t place his faith into more adults. He had to protect Kairo, he wouldn’t trust anyone else to do so.

The brothers spend about 5 years there, so Titos was 11 and Kairo was 8. When he discovered his airbending, the workers attempted to give Kairo up to the nomads at Air Temple Island. But he violently refused and Titos wouldn’t start for it either. Kairo denied any offer to live at the Temple unless Titos could come. But they only wanted airbending orphans of course. So they remained there and even with their meager conditions. They were happy just to have each other.

Over the next 3 years, the boys rejected any offer to get adopted unless the other could come. Every time a possible parent interviewed them, they’re first question was “Can my brother come?” None of them were interested in getting two boys, so they stayed at the orphanage. Kairo began to bond with Mr.Tamaguchi. One of the workers there, seemed to act a father to him. Titos didn’t like it one bit. Unfortunately he ended up molesting Kairo when Titos was out helping with groceries.

When Titos returned, Kairo was mortified. But his young psyche suppressed the painful memory. So all he could do was comfort him. The next few weeks, Titos noticed Kairo was terrified of Mr. Tamaguchi. Even lacking the memory of the accident, he still associated strong feelings of fear and terror with him. It sadly occurs with many children who suffered like Kairo, Titos had decided to silently pursue his brother, thinking something was fishy. When the sick man attempted to violate Kairo once more, Titos used his firebending to brutally murder him. It was terrifying, relentless screams and the smell of burning flesh. Kairo was in horror to see his brother wield such rage, so he subconsciously suppressed this memory as well.

At the tender ages of 14 and 11, the brothers ran away and began to live on the streets. Whenever Kairo asked why they couldn’t live at the orphanage, Titos just said they were secretly mean people and that they were better off. He had lost any sort of trust in any adult, his lack of trust for others and protective nature of Kairo only grew. They began stealing to survive, Kairo found out he was quite the talented pick pocket.

They began taking random jobs to get by, growing up like that Kairo learned a few things. Life should be enjoyed, even they’re terrible situation he always tried to keep a happy demeanor. He enjoyed rule breaking, so Titos was really the only person he listened to. He was a free spirit with a big heart.

Eventually they managed to get a small apartment on Kairo’s 16th birthday. It was small, all they could afford. But Kairo was excited and incredibly grateful. A few months after, Titos managed to become a cop. Working hard to provide for his little brother. Kairo on the other hand struggles to keep a job. }}
