OVERALL PERSONALITY :
- Kane is a quiet, gentle person
- He tends to avoid large groups for fear of being isolated once they discover his sexuality
- he is of the mindset that he cannot be hurt if he doesn't set himself up for such a situation.
- He is not as outspoken as his twin and is a lot more bookish.
- Kane is highly intelligent but he is not vain enough to go around bragging about it.
- He prefers to have a few close friends that he knows he can trust as oppose to hundreds that he doesn't really know that well.
- Kane is shy when meeting new people and large groups make him extremely uncomfortable.
- He is not your typical over the top gay guy, he doesn't act feminine, doesn't fit into the stereotype and doesn't look any different to the rest of the guys at the school (perhaps with a little more style).
- He hates people who pretend to be something they aren't just to fit in with everyone else.
- Kane is sweet and connects well with his female friends, who tend to be a lot more caring and understanding of his sensitive side.
- He likes to spoil his female friends and is always around when they need to talk or need a shoulder to cry on. Despite his sensitivity, he does not outwardly show extreme emotions (at least not in front of those he does not consider close friends), preferring to deal with things in his own way.

OVERALL HISTORY :
[/size]Kane was born Kane James Montague to Ivan and Rebecca Montague. He is the youngest (by five minutes) of a set of twins, his elder twin being Ravenclaw extrovert, Brandon. Kane was always the forgotten twin where his father was concerned. He was the smallest and the quietest and his father had little time for the dreamer so he was pushed to the back and ignored most of the time. His relationship with his mother was different, however. The woman had plenty of time for her youngest son and showered him with the affection that he was denied from his father, often favouring him over his twin in the same way Ivan favoured the elder of the pair. It was for this reason that he grew extremely close to his mother as he grew older and became protective of the woman who gave him life. She is the only member of his family he ever told about his sexuality. Kane was given his middle name as tribute to his paternal grandfather; James Montague, just as Brandon was named for their maternal grandfather on request of their mother.
Kane showed his first sign of magic shortly before his sixth birthday. Unlike most boys his age, Kane was still afraid of the dark (something that Ivan blamed on his wife's mollycoddling) and, after the lights were turned out, he managed to light one of the candles in the room without realising how. This event was the final straw for Ivan, he began to put his youngest son down, calling him names and telling him to 'man up' at every opportunity in the hope of making his son less of a 'sissy'. He enrolled his son in muggle sports such as wrestling and boxing in the hopes of 'beating the poufe out of him' but to Rebecca it was obvious that her son would prefer to be in his room reading and writing or helping her in the garden. Kane had become both a son and a daughter to Rebecca and Ivan Montague could not stand it. After all attempts failed to get his son to act more like a man, Ivan gave up and returned to ignoring him.
Unlike most boys his age, Kane practically did what he was told (the exact opposite of his brother). He was not the kind to rebel and spent most of his time bonding with his mother, the only person whose approval he felt he needed. He got along with his brother but the pair were so different that they often argued and headstrong Brandon would say something that would make the younger of the pair end up in tears, though Kane never let his father or brother see him cry. When he finally recieved his Hogwarts letter, Kane was extremely excited and his magic went slightly haywire. This event ended up in him blowing up his and his brother's birthday cake and he recieved an extreme lecture from his father followed by his father and brother ignoring him for the week, not that the event was anything new.
When he began Hogwarts, Kane was sorted into Ravenclaw, along with his brother. He was unpopular, the nerd that sat in the library and was ignored by the rest of the house (perhaps because his brother had been rather insistant that no-one speak to the younger twin). He spent most of his time in the library, reading and writing and generally just hiding from the rest of his house. He formed a few friendships with some of the girls of the school, most of whom thought of him as a brother more than anything and enjoyed his calm nature and the fact that he would listen to them without complaining if they got teary. He was not as bothered as he should have been that the girls weren't interested in him romantically and, after a rather disasterous date in his third year, the boy finally came to terms with the fact that he was gay. He told his mother but swore her to secrecy, not wanting his father or brother to find out. Since then he has told his close friends and no-one else.
During his fourth year, Kane's relationship with his twin was mended slightly now that they were away from their parents influences more often. The pair will never be close but they act more like brothers than they use to, even if their old fights still start up again. Things have become more relaxed between the pair but the very straight Brandon often still lets derogatory comments about gays slip, unaware of how it is affecting his brother. When the house rivalries and alliances began to take presidence over other relationships Kane decided to stay out of it, preferring to avoid the confrontation with other members of the school. His brother did not like this but after an outburst on Kane's behalf, he stopped trying to force the younger half to join in on the insults against Slytherins and just left the boy alone.
FINISHING TOUCHES.
THE SAD ENDING TO A PERFECT BEGINNING.

ROLE PLAY SAMPLE :
how do i get out of this place? where am i?
so many fears that i must face now.
i'm afraid of what i might find on the outside,
i'm afraid to expose myself to the light
and show you who i am on the inside.
It was one of those mornings. One of those horrible mornings where you wished you could just stay in bed, under the covers, hiding from the world. At least that is how Kane Montague felt. It was Monday, the first day of classes back at school and Kane, despite being a bookish Ravenclaw, could not find the willpower to get out of his warm bed. At least that was until some smart arse decided that it would be amusing to drench the entire bed in cold water. Oh how that useless twin brother of his was going to get it when he worked out how to get back at him. With a groan and a grumble and a few muttered curses (that sounded rather out of place for the usually quiet boy), Kane rose from the bed, showered and dressed before taking a look at his watch. Thus the cursing began again as he realised he was late to breakfast, well at least as far as his two best friends, Simone Rodriguez and Grace Foster were concerned. With a sigh he threw his books into his bag and flung the fraying article over his shoulder before shaking his wet hair (in a way reminiscent of a dog) and trudging down the steps and out of the common room.
He hurridly found his way to the Great Hall, avoiding as many people as possible along the way and trying not to roll his eyes as some greeted him with a swift "morning Brandon". He scanned the room as he entered, looking up and down the Ravenclaw table for a sign of his two favourite girls. He spotted them rather easily, two heads of blonde hair at the Ravenclaw table were hard to miss, even with the usual start of term scuffle between the Gryffindors and Slytherins that had, by the looks of things, died out as Kane entered the hall. At a lanky 6'2" he was hard to miss in the crowd but as he dodged and sidestepped people he appeared to go unnoticed, something that make a playful smirk linger on his lips. He approached the table just in time to hear Grace mention Potions, how long the week would be and his name.
"Potions in the morning, this is going to be a long first week,"
"And where is Kane?!"
He ducked his head slightly, his wet hair dropping down over his shoulder as he wrapped an arm loosely around the front of her shoulders and spoke in her ear, loud enough that both her and Simone could hear him. "You wouldn't happen to be talking about that charming, intelligent Ravenclaw with the stunningly good looks would you?" he said, his tone teasing. Kane was not a vain person but he had known these two girls so long that he could make jokes like that without them thinking he was exactly like his brother. The pair knew of his biggest secret, he had told them a few months after he had told his mother during his fourth year and they had not walked on him, something he was grateful for. Then, of course, there was the fact that both of them covered for him when he went on dates. Seriously, he must seem like the biggest player in Hogwarts this side of the seventies what with all the girls he was often seen around. The thought amused him to no end, especially with the jealousy that lingered in his brother's eyes at the thought.
"And why in the world are two lovely ladies such as yourselves be talking about Potions for?" he asked, taking a seat beside Grace and pulling a plate towards him "that is a way to ruin a man's appetite". He offered the pair an impish grin before he began piling his plate with various fruits and filling his glass with orange juice (anyone who drank pumpkin juice had to have serious taste bud issues). He made some form of strange sandwich with the fruit and two slices of toast and took a bite, tucking his hair behind his ear as he did so, more out of habit now than anything. It had taken a while but the implications of Grace's words hit him and he let his sandwich fall to his plate, the concoction falling apart and the grin dropping from his face "please tell me you did not just say we have Potions with Scarletti first thing this morning" he said, turning to face Grace for a moment before looking rapidly between her and Simone, hoping against everything that they would say they had been kidding. Kane was not horrible at Potions, at least not the practical, but Professor Antoinetta Scarletti was head of Slytherin House and had a horrid habit of referring to him as Brandon, seriously he would swear on the graves of Merlin, Mordred and Morgan Le Fay that she hated him and did it on purpose!
