KRAVEN TAYLOR
| [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=valign,top] ven twenty-four male pansexual pianist crows member | [atrb=style, width: 296px; padding: 5px; background-color: e3e3e3; border-top: 4px solid #966666;] GENERAL INFORMATION NAME, kraven lucas taylor BIRTH DATE, |
HEIGHT, five foot eleven inches
WEIGHT, one hundred seventy-five pounds
APPEARANCE, kraven isn't a very discrete person what with snowy white hair and lavender eyes, but he does try to blend in better by dressing like normal people. he's often seen wearing jeans and a hoodie, although it isn't uncommon for him to wear turtle-neck sweaters and the like. one distinguishing feature is the strange tattoo he's got under his left eye. kraven's skin is rather pale as well, a trait he picked up from having such white hair, although he doesn't seem to mind this very much. he's always got some kind of smile on his face, although whether it's genuine or fake is a question that everyone seems to wonder..[/div]
PERSONALITY
if anything can describe kraven's personality, it would be either strange or mysterious. the male often has a smirk or grin on his face regardless of the situation he's in and he tends to not take anything seriously. traits that may annoy some people are his carefree attitude and mocking laugh. he's extremely loyal to his friends, even dangerously so, despite whatever situation he's in. his fellow gang members are his best friends. rival gang members are considered his worst enemies.
but be cautious of him -- meeting kraven for the first time can be a bit irritating because he keeps people at an arm's length and refuses to give any information about himself until he's sure you can at the very least be trusted not to turn around and sell him out to the police or something. he does what he can to survive, and this includes selling narcotics as a side job with his gang whenever playing the piano for gotham just isn't enough. kraven is a prankster by nature, so he likes to keep people guessing on what he's like beneath the surface, which is a kind and gentle person (whenever he's not out on the hunt with his gang, that is).

history
PARENTS, garnet and lucas taylor, both deceased
SIBLINGS, serenity taylor, 26
kraven was born to a happy couple on the tenth of august twenty-four years ago in hoboken, new jersey. growing up, kraven always had a view of manhatten outside his family's apartment windows. now, his parents never had a lot of money growing up, so lucas had a side job of selling (and sometimes using) narcotics to pay for the rent on their apartment. even as kraven was growing up, him and his older sister could tell what was happening within the family. their parents' marriage was falling apart rapidly as they were finding it increasingly difficult to support four people under one very small roof. lucas became too involved with the gang life, and eventually it came back to bite him in the ass.
whatever deal he'd made with the neighborhood gang backfired when he didn't have enough money to pay them back for the amount of drugs they'd fronted to him. a whole slew of them came with guns and all, and both lucas and his wife were shot to their deaths as kraven and serenity watched, hidden in the small closet in their parents' bedroom. when all was said and done and the police came and did their investigation, kraven and his sister were shipped off to live with their aunt and uncle in maine. life was rough here for the two of them, with what having to start over after witnessing such a tragic event. kraven managed to adapt, but his method of doing so was to keep himself closed off from other people. naturally, he found comfort in involving himself with various drug-users, who taught him how to relax and let go for a little while. it didn't take long for him to succumb to drug addictions, which his aunt and uncle quickly noticed. he was thrown into rehab for two years and returned for his eighteenth birthday a little more 'out there' than he had been the last time he'd been home. while he was there, to keep himself from going crazy, he'd taught himself how to play the piano.
but he wanted a change. now that he was eighteen, he felt as though it was his decision as to whether or not he wanted to stay living with them. and so, he packed his things and moved to new york, the place he'd always dreamed about visiting ever since he first got a glimpse of it outside his bedroom window. he got a very, very small and somewhat dirty apartment, but he only usually ever goes there just to sleep. he lasted a few years on good terms, but it didn't take long before he fell into the trap again, and ended up joining the neighborhood gang this time around. they were called the crows, and kraven soon found himself very attracted to the ideals of the gang as well as its leader, alexander. he delved into the narcotics trade as easily as his father did, and was eager to please his new friends.
so here he is, aged twenty-four. with a job at gotham as a piano player and a secret life as a gangster, kraven lives each day just trying not to be caught by the police. he's heavily involved with the drug trade, so if one ever needed a pick-me-up, he's definitely the guy to see.
