(Disclaimer for the picture above: he would not fucking do this)
I wouldn't even know where to start w him tho there's SO MUCH but uh,, okay brief summary!
Kenneth is my main oc in an ongoing rp story I share w a couple friends! The setting is basically like a made-up ambiguously placed city that's rife with crime and gangs (kinda like Gotham city if you want something to compare) and Kenneth is an infamous serial killer and cannibal! He's deeply disturbed and burdened w both a god complex and self hatred, feeling only someone, as divorced from humanity as he, is capable of ridding the world of evil. He has.. a lot of baggage that I can't just unpack right here right now.
His story is kinda intertwined w my friend's oc Wasp, (the city's top dog gang leader) who blackmails Kenneth into working w him after Kenneth made a failed attempt on his life, only for them to form a weird toxic homoerotic Thing that I also can't upack rn.. But basically they're character foils! Kenneth is an staunchly repressed loner with strong (twisted) morals and Wasp is someone who surrounds himself with people and pleasure to the point of excess.
Kenneth is self-centred - less in an ego sense and more in that he is so wrapped up in his own warped perception of reality that he struggles with anything that contradicts it. He has a very black and white view of good and evil, but his complex relationship with Wasp and the members of his gang kinda start to challenge that. Which is bad, because his psyche is held together with the fragile thread of his worldview and he's terrified of what could happen if that's shattered.
I love him because he sucks! He's a traumatised animal lashing out at the world and he has so much blood on his claws and fangs and he can't turn back now because all that's behind him is a trail of violence. He was told all his life he's not even human and born wicked and he has made it his reality.
(Also, if you're curious what accent he has, he has a very subtle european one that's often barely there unless yeah, high emotion - which he experiences rarely. Flat affect my beloved <3)
