1. Name: Kendra Kingsley (Nicknamed Kay, by her brother Asher)
2. Age: 17 (often mistaken for a 20 year old)
3. Occupation: High School Student, intern at local Salon as a hair stylist
4. Biography: Kendra comes from a large family, with six kids constantly competing for attention. She has 3 older brothers, and 2 younger, in order by age: Michael, Asher, Oliver, Kendra, Harrison, and Brenner. Michael stood out because of his strength, he trained to be a boxer. Asher, had the broad shoulders of his brother and father, but he could never build as much muscle as them, he never could be as strong as them. And when his next brother began to gain strength just as easily as Michel, Asher began to search for other ways to stand out. Fueled by his anger at himself, and his longing to feel like part of the family, Asher turned to music, heavy metal, and screamo.
He never though much of his little sister, every once in a while he would envy her, she was a part of the family, she fit in, but since she was female she wasn’t held to the same standards. Asher hated that. As small children (Asher was 7, Kendra 4) Asher would constantly ‘beat up’ on his little sister, using every and any excuse to hurt her, or make her feel miserable. It wasn’t until 6 years later, at a family reunion when Asher stumbled upon Kendra crying under a table, that Asher actually stopped to think logically about his little sister. Truth be told she felt like as much of an outcast as he did. After stopping to talk to Kendra and discovering that they both shared the fear of, at one point or another, being unloved, and the anger at being an outcast in their own family, Asher completely changed his relationship with his sister. From then on Asher became one of Kendra’s best friends, despite the few years age difference, they would share every aspect of their lives together.
During Kendra’s preteen years she would constantly mimic Asher, if he obsessed over a band, it was soon her new favorite as well, she would copy the way he dressed and acted, adding a slightly more feminine touch. Once Kendra and Asher were both a way into their teens Asher seemed more and more self-conscious. Asher's self esteem was minuscule, so he tried to 'improve his image by using alcohol and recreational drugs. As if to prove he was cooler and tougher just because he drank and smoked. Kendra’s Heart was broken, how could she allow her brother to ruin himself like this? Yet, she could do nothing to affect Asher’s state of mind. She was disgusted by his drinking and smoking so she soon decided that it was time she lived her own life. She began listening to music she actually liked, and dressing in a more sophisticated and comfortable way, she started taking art, and guitar classes in high school. She became her own person rather than just Asher’s mini-me.
Asher soon began to see the toll of his new life on his friends and family, when Kendra was the last person to turn her back, something clicked in Asher. He began to play music & sing again and he worked to overcome his addictions. Soon his music career and life in general, began to improve. Up until, a few months ago, Asher and Kendra have let their friendship deteriorate, but their sibling bond is still completely intact and they hope that that will be enough to rekindle their deep friendship.
Kendra is extremely intellectual, she makes straight A’s, and is well known for her kindness. She’s extremely shy around strangers, however once she’s comfortable, she becomes hard to quiet. She has a particularly optimistic personality, and her happiness tends to rub off on others. She rarely experiences sadness, but rather she is far more easily angered, somewhat similar to Asher in that sense.
5. Additional info: She doesn’t have any tattoos, however she does have her left ear pierced multiple times, and her right earlobe pierced twice. She’s pretty careful not to put her hair behind her ears, so that no one sees her piercings. She doesn’t remember getting most of them, only waking up with her ear hurting like hell.
She’s one of those people that get a buzz from a single sip of alcohol, so she easily gets roaring drunk and ends up doing crazy dares, only to wake up the next morning without a clue.
She is currently single. She’s sharing a tent with her best friend Victoria (they are the two blondes a few tents down from Danny & Laura.) Victoria is a cosmetologist and is working with the make-up aspect for the festival. Victoria is 20 & also works at the salon Kendra’s internship is with.
Kendra is 17, however she is constantly mistaken for a 20 year-old, possibly because of her height, she’s pretty tall, and is quite mature for her age.
Kendra lives in a city relatively near the festival, with her parents and 2 younger brothers, and she’s spent most of high school in Texas, however Asher refused to move to Texas, and eventually moved in with a friend in order to stay in Michigan.
She has extremely blue eyes, she generally has contacts, but occasionally still uses her glasses.
Her lucky ring is something she never leaves without, it was a gift from Asher. It is in the shape of a leaf to have symbolized ‘their growing friendship’.
Kendra, is currently not part of a band, but does have a great singing voice like her brother, only few people know about it though.
