The point of face is to give a hint of its shape. Although animated shows will have you believe every person has the same face, in real life that is untrue. Use it to point out someone has a square jaw or pudgy face, for instance.
 * Personality: ...While his (he is) "down-to-Earth", he isn't some super-serious person....

His backstory is load of buffalo bull dung. I was going to brush past the orphanage hoping myth that I find to be quite the rarity in real life, but then you have him save his orphanage from a Grimm that tore off his arm and incapacitated TWO hunters just by unlocking his aura?...uh…no, denied, he gets my honorary “SUE” badge just for that.

He’s also overloaded in the weapon department for someone that is introduced around the same age as the cast of the show. He has 3 weapons, 2 of which use foldable tech, and 2 of which utilizes elemental dust, that by all accounts he shouldn’t even have the money to use effectively since dust (the elemental kind) has been shown to be a bit of a rarity probably due to their cost, a cost a person that lives in an ORPHANAGE shouldn’t be able to support....needs better explanation and/or cutting down some of the extra unnecessary content and wait till he upgrades the weapons to put them there.

I'll admit about the part about saving the two hunters wasn't exactly the best idea. They weren't originally intended to be Hunters at all, just the average citizen. I pretty much changed them because I thought that it'd make no sense for a 15-year-old to able to kill a Beowolf alone. So instead I had them and Alyssa there to wear it down, leave it open for the finishing blow. And the Aura only stopped the bleeding, not give him extra strength. Might not exactly worked out as I hoped it would, though. And the Beowolf didn't "tear" his arm off, it just basically did a shit load of damage to it. All in all, I probably shold've asked a lot more folk to beta for me. Derp :/

As to how he can afford those weapons... they weren't really bought at all. They were basically given to him before he takes the exam, having been "recovered" by an... interested person. The individual claims that they once belonged to his father (though the boy is skeptical of this). Thinking about removing the Elemental properties of the pistol. Starting to make less sense the more I think about it. As for why he has three... I kinda thought that it'd a might more difficulty in managing them. He would have to sheath the sword just to use the pistol, and it would take time for him to switch weapons. Many of the Canon cast don't have to work about switching weapons, because they're already built in. Kai, though, doesn't really have that pleasure.
