Break These Chains
They Can't Take Our Rights
Name:Irvine Kinneas
Age:17
Personality:Irvine is a ladies' man, plain and simple, and uses his loner sharpshooter persona to try and impress them. In Galbadia Garden, Irvine is known for being the best marksman, to the point where he's appointed to function as the group's sharpshooter during Edea's assassination attempt. Despite his playful and suave persona, Irvine is by no means shallow, inside, Irvine is actually a sensitive person with a sharp mind who cares deeply about his friends.
What game are you from: Final Fantasy VIII
History:An orphan of the Sorceress War, as a child Irvine Kinneas lived in a seaside orphanage referred to as Edea's Orphanage, in Centra. Here he was among many other children, including Squall, Quistis, Zell, Seifer, and Selphie, who were under the care of Edea Kramer, a sorceress. The circumstances of his adoption largely unknown, Irvine eventually ends up studying in Galbadia Garden and graduates as a sharp shooter; an expert on firearms.
Irvine as he waits to be fashionably introduced.When Squall Leonhart's Balamb Garden SeeD team are hired by Galbadia Garden to assassinate Sorceress Edea, who by then had become a Galbadian ambassador under President Vinzer Deling, during a public celebration Irvine is assigned to the party as the group's sniper for the mission. As the group departs for Deling City, Irvine wastes no time on hitting on all three of the girls (Quistis, Rinoa, and Selphie) on the team.
Meeting and receiving their orders from General Caraway of the Galbadian Army, Irvine is teamed with Squall as the point assassination team while the other SeeD's are assigned to trap the Sorceress. As the ceremony begins Edea kills the President and claims Galbadia as her own. Rushing to their positions, saving Rinoa in the process, Irvine and Squall wait as Edea is trapped under the Galbdian Gateway. However, remembering who Edea was, Irvine seems to choke but after some encouragement from Squall, who forgot who Edea used to be, he fires at the Sorceress. Edea's magical barrier blocks the shot, however. Squall then takes the job in hand and attacks the Sorceress; Rinoa and Irvine join him shortly after, with Irvine claiming he has to redeem himself. Squall is knocked unconscious, ultimately resulting in the mission's failure despite Squall's efforts. As the team is captured and imprisoned, Irvine either escapes or is, due to the Galbadian affiliation of his Garden, allowed to go free. Either way he later receives orders from General Caraway to pick up his daughter, Rinoa, from the prison; she was released due to the General's efforts. However, Rinoa forces him to also assist in the rest of the team's escape.
Irvine breaks into the Prison, where he finds his teammates under a hail of fire. He eliminates the enemies and tells them how to get out. He then stays behind to buy his friends some time, engaging in a gunfight with the soldiers at the prison. Shortly after the escape, they learn that in retaliation for the attack on Sorceress Edea. Galbadia had targeted Balamb and Trabia Gardens for missile attack. Splitting into two groups; Squall's group and Selphie's group, the escapees manage to save Balamb Garden from destruction but not Trabia Garden. Eventually they finally reunite in Fisherman's Horizon.
Irvine's idea of a 'well formed' party.With no immediate missions to perform Irvine returns to what he does best; namely, being a 'player'. He moves to try and console Selphie, who has become upset over her failure to save Trabia Garden, by asking Squall to have Fisherman's Horizon's mechanics also build the Garden Festival pavilion which Selphie had been attempting to work on since before becoming a SeeD. Taking charge of the operation of the festival he gains the involvement of the rest of the team by suggesting that it was to celebrate Squall's recent promotion to 'Commander' and to help bring Squall and Rinoa closer together. During the preparations Irvine took time to explore Fisherman's Horizon, resulting in him tangling with a Galbadian soldier who was left from a previous raid on the town. He also noted that, during his wanderings, the town was pretty spartan. It was revealed that it was because a warning bulletin had been issued on a suspicious man in a brown coat carrying a gun. Even after reading the article Irvine still didn't realize the bulletin was about him. The planned festival was a success, with Squall and Rinoa getting some time alone to talk and, presumably, Irvine winning points with Selphie.
When the party arrives at Trabia Garden, on Selphie's request, Irvine slowly leads the SeeD members to remember their past in the orphanage and having known each other and Edea. It is he that makes them remember their history together, makes them realize that the great powers that the GF grant them come with the price of memory loss, and he shows them that their beloved Matron and Sorceress Edea are in fact the same person. It is then suggested that Irvine didn't have a nervous breakdown during the assassination plan; but in reality he still knew who his Matron was and was afraid to kill her. He then goes on to express his feelings and thoughts on the matter, saying how he wanted to stay true to the path he had chosen in life, and how he believed they should fight the Sorceress, even if they now remembered who she was. After hearing this, the group makes their resolve to fight their former Matron but first they head to the Centra continent to search for clues. Unfortunately Galbadia Garden, now under full Galbadian control, was waiting them. They go to battle against Edea and, despite great losses and near defeat, they launch a desperate counter attack; invading the Garden and defeating Sorceress Edea. However, Rinoa fell into a coma almost immediately after.
While Squall had become concerned over Rinoa's state, the group receives a new mission; searching for a girl named Ellone at the behest of Edea Kramer who, it was later discovered, was previously under the control of a futuristic sorceress named Ultimecia. Learning from the White SeeD that Ellone was now in Esthar, a country that was renowned for possessing the most advanced technology and science in the world, Squall opted to go alone, carrying Rinoa on his back, but his friends, including Irvine, followed him. The group acting as Edea's honor guard as she also wished to visit the country they entered Esthar. In his pursuit of finding a cure for Rinoa's ailment Squall was sent, along with Rinoa's unconscious form, to the space bound Lunar Base. It was then discovered that Ultimecia had taken control of Rinoa and used her to free Sorceress Adel from her space-bound tomb. The station is evacuated as the Lunar Cry begins, but Squall instead goes after a re-awakened and free Rinoa as she is left in space. Coming across an abandoned spaceship called Ragnarok the couple use it to return to the planet.
Even Quistis is not spared from Irvine's advances.Landing somewhere in Esthar Rinoa, as a new sorceress, is taken away and Squall is reunited with his friends once again. With Selphie piloting, and with Irvine earning 'points' as her support, they return to Esthar after retrieving Rinoa by request of Laguna, the president of Esthar, to stop Ultimecia once and for all. Using the Ragnarok they invade the Lunatic Pandora and fight past Adel. Using Ellone's time powers, they were able to start a Time Compression, and enter Ultimecia Castle in the future, where Ultimecia awaited. Upon Ultimecia's demise the group was momentarily trapped in Time but, due to their belief and reliance on each other, they managed to return to their time safely.
The reported demise of Ultimecia resulted in a celebratory ball in Balamb Garden which saw Irvine returning to what he loved most; wooing the girls.

How did you find us:The lovely Miss.Aerith *bows*
Custom Title:Sharpshootin' Ladies Man
Sample RP: So much pain. He hadn't felt this much physical pain since he'd been thrown from a chocobo and then trampled on. With a low groan the cowboy attempts to lift his head, only to be attacked by another wave of nausea. Had he been poisoned? He really isnt sure, the last thing he remembers was being with Selphie. Selphie. Where is she? Is she hurt?
A little voice in his head tells him no she isnt hurt, but maybe she is the reason for why Irvine is flat on his back in so much pain.
A soft voice breaks through his thoughts "Irvie? Oh Irvie are you okay?" Selphie's emerald eyes are suddenly above him which causes Irvine to smile. "I-uh. I think so... What happened?" slowly he allows Selphie to help him sit up, the world is still tilting and wobbling slightly but as the seconds pass it begins to stand still.
"Well I uhm... Don't be mad kay?" all her words seem rushed but Irvine simply closes his eyes before sighing. "What did you do?"
He can hear her take a deep breath before she continues "Well, I uhm... Kinda... hit you in the face... with my.... uhm.... fist." The cowboys eyes flash open and all he can do is stare incredulously at the petite brunette. "Er- uhm... what? You punched me?" she simply nods her head "You punched me?!... WHY?!" What in the world would cause Selphie to punch him? It's not like he had done anything... Or had he? His memory is still a bit fuzzy.
"You were staring at some girls and I just meant to tap you with my fist, like a joke, but someone bumped into me and well.... I'm sorry Irvie!!! Don't be mad!" tears begin to streak down her cheeks which causes Irvine to feel horrible, which is odd to him seeing as she punched him. So with a small chuckle he gathers her up in his arms to calm her down. "Your forgiven Selphie. Just don't do it again."
