cassius

cassius ("kaz") flores has his family's hereditary ability to manipulate fire and heat. because of this, he is to one day become head of the family and manage their business and strong sociopolitical influence. his father ellison, on a bit of a power trip, is in the midst of making quite a controversial name for the family and kaz isn't so sure if he wants to inherit this sort of responsibility. his family has always valued tradition, order, and keeping things the way they've always been, regardless of if it conflicts with changing times. their more conservative views have always clashed with his, but now more than ever. kaz is a peaceful person and doesn't like conflict, so to avoid worsening his relationship with his family and the daunting decision of his future, he spends a lot of time away from home, attending boarding schools and special programs in the hopes of bringing pride and success to his family name in other ways. he cares strongly for other people and is a kind and honest person, but he is also very sensitive and stresses himself out easily. he likes to make music and swim in his free time.
