---Background story---

    ·         Kanae is the last child of Ophelia and Novato Livius. She was born into a prosperous family so there was never a lack               of material things

    ·         In order to fulfill her role as a noble child, Kanae was not allowed to play in the dirt because she needed to be                     prevented from ugly abrasions and dirt on her dress. Her few friends were carefully selected by her mother.

    ·         When Kanae was eleven, she was confronted with the harsh reality for the very first time. She watched her friends                 insulting a girl they considered to be of less value. She did not join in but didn't help her either. She didn’t know                     what to do and was shocked about the whole situation.

    ·         Since that life experience , Kanae changed her mind about the royal society she lived in

    ·         She saw the royal circle as a manipulative, intolerant and selfish lifestyle with strict rules who didn’t accept a free                 will

    ·         More and more she came into a conflict with herself – on the one hand, she wanted to fulfill her role as a noble                     woman to make her mother proud and to match her expectations but on the other hand she wanted to be free from               false rules and the high pressure

    ·         As a result of her inner conflict she didn’t managed to be “the perfect daughter and noble Woman” anymore so her                 friends turned their backs at her and left. also her mother saw her as a disappointment

    ·         Kanae became very lonely and lost her trust in the people – she gave up to manage other peoples expectations and               felt like a bird in a cage

    ·         After a failed attempt from her parents to get her engaged with a noble Man, Kanae decided to leave her family and                 wanted a live without any royalty, strict rules to achieve happiness

    ·         The time after she left her family was very diffecult for Kanae, the difference between her former live in richness                 and her current situation in financial hardships (some sort of poor life) was too much and she struggled with first                 doubts

    ·         After all she managed to find a job in a small pub in Lucis and life got better for her

    ·         Serendipitously, she talked to a man who gave Kanae a hint where she would get better paid as in the pub and so                 she decided to train for the job of a “Beast Hunter”

    ·         After a long training she decided to go on her first mission in that she should kill a Dragon- but instead of killing the                 dragon she managed to train him and gave him the name “Trabem” which means “Light Beam” in Latin

    ·         Since that coincidence , Kanae and Trabem are really good partners and work as a team to hunt dangerous beasts                 down

   

 

[ I will add more as the demo/full game is released!]

---Relationships and Bonds--- 

Kanae and her mother Ophelia

    ·         This relationship is based on much dominance and expectations by Ophelia

    ·          Her mother was seeking to make the perfect and functional noble woman out of Kanae and made the important                      decisions for her daughter

    ·         Kanae wanted to manage the expectations of her mother and wished for some attention and recognition that she                 got from Ophelia if she behaved as her mother wished

    ·         As Kanae got older her relationship with her mother got worse and both sides were cold and ashamed of each other

    ·         Since the loss of contact Kanae thinks about her mother as a woman who shaped her in a very negative way but                 she wishes that Ophelia can understand her one day

 

“I’m sure that the only thing my mother loved about me was the simulacrum I build for her over the years.” – Kanae about her mother

 

Kanae and Noctis

    ·         In the beginning of the relationship there was a lack of interest in each other by both sides

    ·         Kanae thought about Noctis as a “arrogant, self-convinced Man” but she changed her opinion about him as she got                 to know him more

    ·         Because of Noctis she learned that not everyone who has big influence is bad or egoistic

    ·         Kanae  even managed to became quite revealing and open to Noctis

    ·         Their bond get closer as they share similar problems and help each other out

    ·         Although both are opposites of each other in most aspects, they learn to deal with the mistakes and the                             weaknesses of the other

    ·         They can get into conflicts which are stronger and emotionally heated because of their opposite character traits,                 but they manage to stick together and forgive each other

    ·         Noctis even reduces her  pessimism and she managed to trust people more

    ·         In return Kanae is his loyal follower and someone who supports him in every way she can

    ·         Because Noctis tends to acting overhasty or rushed, Kanae trys her best to reduce the harm he causes to himself or               others sometimes

Noctis is one of the persons in my life, who really inspire and motivate me to do my best. He isn’t afraid of my bad traits and my cold behavior. Possibly he is the only one I trust blindly…” – Kanae about Noctis

[I will add more relationships in the future maybe]


 

---Abilities and weaknesses---


  •     She has full control over the fire element /magic which she is born with
  •     If she has complete conditions, she even can make her weakness element/magic water ineffective for a short time       because of powerful heat
  •     She can take away  body warmth of her enemies which causes them to freeze to death or one the other hand she       can let her enemies dehydrate
  •     The earring given by her sister consists of a ore which intensify her fire but in return lows her endurance almost to       zero      
  •     She is only a distance fighter
  •     Kanae plans every step in a fight and analysis her enemie at first- she never act overhasty

Weaknesses:

  •      She is unsuitable for a close-combat (or close-fight) because of her low endurance and her average weapon use
  •      Because of her strict planning, Kanae can be easily taken down by surprise attacks or ability’s she didn’t expect            from her enemy
  •      If a fight goes over a longer period of time, Kanae collapses of her lack of endurance
  •      If the enemy has the ability or economically circumstances (like cold/rainy weather, Snow etc.) Kanae’s body temperature sinks easily and undercool which paralyzes or even means the death for her
   

 

---Trivia---

  •   Kanae means “hard-working” and her family name Livius means “alive,agility”
  •   She speaks with accent which is like some sort of a british accent
  •   Her Voice Actress in Japan is Paku Romi, who voices also Hamyuts Meseta from Tatakau Shisho
  •   Because of her fire powers she has a high body temperature more than others so she must eat a lot                            carbohydrate-rich food (rice, noodles, fast food) in order to have enough energy for body essential processes
  •   She speaks fluently Latin, even though it is a dead-language
  •   Kanae once tried to hunt the Behemoth “Smoke Eye”, who is in the Duscae Demo as a quest, down but failed badly
     

 

-----Read description! I apologize deeply for my english mistakes in the description and profile, it’s not my native language!---

FINALLY I got myself up to write Kanaes english profile. I wanted to do that since a long time, but now the Final Fantasy XV Demo “Episode Duscae” is around the corner, I wanted to finish it already (+ before school begins tomorrow and I don’t have time anymore). And again, as always, a BIG THANK YOU to Kura-Kairai  for the help to translate some parts of Kanaes long german profile into english. I LOVE YOU. and the translator sites...

This is Kanae written profile up to now, with her background and why she is the way she is x’D
I may add or change things a bit since the game isn’t out yet and I don’t know there the story will go (but anyway I have quite fun to interpret or to analyze things.) . And of course, this is totally based of my own interpretation of the game, the characters etc. (:
Please, If you have a question about her or you don’t understand something don’t hesitate to ask me!

One Important thing to clear up:

Kanae would not and would never be a constant part of Noctis group because it’s stated to be only MALE-party.
I think of her more as a supportive character for the group in special quests or events in the story.

Well, so I'm curious about your opinions and critique! :la:
