CELEBRITY CLAIM Kim, Jaejoong
EYE COLOUR Dark Brown, but switches it up occasionally with circle lenses. His particular favourites are ash grey and hazelnut brown.
HAIR COLOUR Leith was naturally born with jet black hair. Ever since his discovery with hair dye in the past year or so, he's been dying it several shades of brown every 2 months or so, depending on his mood. On happier days, he could go up to a platinum blonde and on gloomier days, it may range from a dark chestnut brown to his original colour of black.
HEIGHT & WEIGHT five-feet-seven & fifty-six kilograms
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES Leith is renowned for his feminine features and porcelain-like complexion. His almost flawless skin is tainted only by two birthmarks on his right shoulder and ankle. He has a lightly toned but slim figure which he tries to maintain by eating healthy.
CLOTHING STYLE Leith believes that first impressions are important. Sloppy dressing equals sloppy person, neat dressing equals approachable person. He likes to keep it simple with a graphic T-shirt and pants with touches colours here and there with a few accessories like a good hat or a jacket. He has a small infatuation with the 90's grunge style and tries to incorporate it into in his casual and comfortable style to give it more of an edge.

HISTORY
Leith was born in Seoul, Korea on the 8th of August. He is a mix of Japanese and Korean descent, his mother being Japanese and his father Korean. At home, he grew up speaking a combination of Korean and Japanese, thus making him multilingual. Leith, nor his younger sister, have the conventional Korean name as his parents did not want to succumb to the Asian norms. His father was brought up in British Columbia, Canada and as of his 12th birthday, so was Leith.
Leith comes from an upper middle-class family of water elements from his father's side of the family. In saying so, Leith led a very happy childhood overall. He was a very curious, eccentric and happy-go-lucky type of boy like his element. He got on well with friends, pulling pranks and cranking jokes was all part of the norm with him. Due to his caring and playful attitude, his peers would often regard him as the head of their gang. He was a born leader as many saw it. Unfortunately after his move to Canada, his personality went into a downhill lapse for a few years.
Leith first showed signs of his element a few days after he turned 14 and was whisked away almost immediately to the Academy. He was excited to finally attend the school his father had fondly talked about for years and he couldn't wait to get started. However, adjusting to the new environment was difficult and Leith fell into the wrong type of "friends" too soon. He knew little English, if any at all, before his move to Canada and made him a very easy target to be bullied. What was regarded as normal in his hometown was seen as strange in this new one. His feminine features was something he was constantly picked on about in his everyday life by his peers. Back at home, his looks would have gone to the boundaries of attractiveness and "prince-like" but was criticised to be "gay" and "girly" in the Academy.
Leith found it hard to deal with the bullying. He would sometimes go home in tears and not speak a word to anyone. In addition to that, he had began to notice that he was paying more and more attention towards boys than girls which didn't help his case at all. Though he made it a point to never judge or criticize other people, he was his own greatest critic. Leith would spend hours upon hours on the beach trying to tire himself out by attempting to wreak some sort of havoc with his limited use of his element. He figured that water wasn't always still, it could be angry and reckless like him too. It was around then that he discovered an old guitar abandoned on the beach.
He is a quick learner and picks up things very easily. In a matter of months, Leith was able to play the guitar as easy as it was to breathe. The day he wrote his first composition, he couldn't stop smiling for a week. It was through this medium that Leith managed to find himself again and discover an outlet for his internal conflict. He decided to finally forgive and accept himself as he is. Leith returned to his old cheery persona and is more at peace now than he had ever been. He still goes back to the beach from time to time to sit amongst the rocks strumming to whatever tune pops into his head whilst listening to the crashing melody of the waves.

RP SAMPLE“damn it. it’s cold…”
one had to admit, it was pretty dumb to wear a t-shirt and shorts with no jacket to the beach at 5 in the evening but it honestly wasn’t alyssa’s fault.
she had planned to change her clothes after class but apparently her lecturer had other plans in store. her lecturer had given the class a surprise assignment that was worth 35% of their grades which had to be handed in before 5. left with no other choice, alyssa stayed back and tried to finish the assignment on time. it was already nearing 2 when her lecturer gave it out, meaning she had about 3 hours to complete the assignment. many of her classmates finished the work within 2 but being the perfectionist she is, alyssa took longer than everyone else to complete it as she wanted her work to be the best it could be.
when alyssa finally handed up her assignment, it was already 5:03pm.
so here she was, freezing her way to the beach near campus. alyssa wrapped her arms across her chest and rubbed sides of her arms to keep warm. she has never been a fan of the cold. just then a gust of wind blew past her, fanning her hair out behind her and making little goosebumps appear on her skin. alyssa let out a small sigh while hugging herself tighter. almost there. true enough, after a few minutes of walking, she begin to see the outline of the person she agreed to meet with, her oppa, blake kwon.
it was already 5:28pm by that time, she was late. alyssa grinned. she quickened her pace but kept her footsteps silent. she quietly made her way up to blake with his back to her. when she was finally near enough, she poked him hard on the sides with her fingers.
“boo!”
