★ History::

Kieran was the first child born to a Corsola mother and a Tentacruel father. His parents loved and doted on their precious baby boy, to the point that the boy had become quite spoiled and somewhat selfish. So when at the age of 6 his parents had a second child, Kieran wasnt pleased at all, now he had to share his parents and he didn't like that. He acted out a lot and consequently got in trouble a lot. Much to his chagrin, as the two boys got older, his younger brother was just absoluely fascinated by Kieran and followed him everywhere unless Kieran managed to escape somehow. Kieran was horrible to the boy, picking on and insulting the boy in hopes that he'd just go away. But his little brother was resiliant and kept up.

One day Kieran was in a particularly bad mood, he'd just gotten in trouble and been yelled at for something his brother had done, they never listend, all they cared about was his stupid brother! Feeling vindictive, he came up with an idea, they loved his brother so much, how would they feel if he didn't come home? So he got his brother and together they snuck out past the guards into the forest. Kieran told his brother all about this new game he wanted to play, and his brother young and naieve as ever, went right along with the plan. Kieran brought his brother to a large tree and helped him to climb up it, he told him it was like Hide-and-seek except you didn't want to be found, he had to hide up here and stay quiet no matter who came looking, if no one found him then he'd win! Kieran left him and went back to the village and went about his day blissfully brother-free. A few hours later it was clear to his parents that their youngest son was nowhere to be found, they interrogated Kieran about it, but he feigned innocence and said nothing. The worried couple brought the matter to the leader and search parties were quickly organized and sent out to search for the missing child. Kieran was worried they'd find him, but his brother kept his word and kept quiet. Even though he could hear his parent calling for him, he said nothing, thinking they  were all part of the game, it was really nice of his brother to include everyone... As night fell the search had to be called off, they would resume tomorrow. But now with the calling voices gone and the darkness falling, his brother began to get frightened. His brother would be here to get him soon right? Kieran began to feel the first tremors of worry as the sun went down, but he pushed the feeling down, his brother would be fine, a night in the dark would be good for him! He thought he might as well take advantage of the situation and get some with with his parents without the nuisance, but his parents, sick with worry, could focus on nothing other than their poor lost boy. Furious Kieran stormed out and climbed a tree, needing some fresh air. As his temper calmed, he began to feel the tremors of worry again, he had never noticed how loud the pokemon sounds were... Slowly he began to get more and more worried, what if something happend? His brother was really annoying and he didn't like him that much, but he didn't really want him to die or get hurt or anything he only wanted to scare the kid a bit.

Finally the worry got the better of him and sneaking past the guards again, he made his way through thr dark forest to the tree where he'd left his brother. He found him terrified and cold but seemingly no worse for the wear and brought him home to his ecstatic parents. The two boys lied and claimed the younger brother had been lost in the forest and only just found his way back. Everything seemed okay for the morning, but by morning the boy had developed a cold, the medics said it was nothing to worry about and he would be back up and playing in a few days, but it didn't get better and his breathing became hard and labored. The medics said they had seen this before, the sickness had entered his lungs and there was nothing they could do but pray for his recovery. And pray they did, even Kieran, he blamed himself for his brother getting sick, if he hadn't played that prank, his brother would be so sick... 

As fate would have it, the boy died just a few days later. Kieran was beside himself with guilt and grief, he ran to the outskirts of the camp where he just collapsed into tears. One of the tribes medics, a kindly old woman, found him and sat with him. She spoke to him for a long time and eventually Kieran just spilled everything out, how he had felt, what he had done, and how he was sure his parents would hate him if they found out. The woman held him as he cried and told him that what he did was wrong, but he shouldn't blame himself for the sickness, as these things happened. She told him that he shouldn't beat himself up over it, but that he should remember this day and endeavor to never do anything like that again.  He was old enough at this point to be apprenticed, and he begged to woman to teach him to heal, he thought that maybe by dedicating himself to healing others, it would somehow make up for how cruel he had been before. She readily accepted him as an apprentice and for the from then until he came of age and earned his tribe name, he threw himself into learning everything he could about the medics craft, steadily growing into the person he is today.
