I’m curious on your description for each character in the Kidnapper Konig series
Could you give us a post describing the family’s physical features and appearance so we get a better idea of how they look
So now that Kidnapper!König is over, I think it's time to go over the character appearances.
I kept them a big vague but tried to get some core features across. I avoid describing character features too much because I try to avoid writing like I'm on Wattpad (sorry, I know that's a bit mean but I have a point I swear). However, I do have pretty in-depth features on my end.
TW: kidnapping, torture referenced, suicide mentioned,
From oldest to youngest (saving König for last):
She has white hair down to her shoulders that she usually keeps loose. She has bright blue eyes and thin features. She's a spindly creature, and I often think of her like a spider with Mr. Henker as her cocooned prey. She likes to wear elegant and sleek clothes but for the hunt chooses to wear practical tactical wear. She wears elegant gold jewellery and is almost never found without a pair of red heels. She loves to wear red, honestly.
She is a terrifying person because she's absolutely convinced that her way of life is perfect. She believes that she is in the right at all times. She believes she is morally sound for kidnapping Mr. Henker and forcing him to be her pet. That's why she is so cruel. She's cruel because she thinks she's right.
7'0 but always slouches into nothingness
He has short cropped white hair and pale blue eyes, much like Friedrich's. He once was a broad, powerfully built CEO who had ambitions to make the world his own, and he looked the part. When Mrs. Henker took an interest in him, he played the part thinking that he could take advantage of her, but she ended up kidnapping him and breaking him into the broken shell we see now.
He's deathly thin with gaunt features. His eyes are like hollow sockets and he's lost so much weight that almost all the fat reserves on his face have been depleted. He looks like a walking skeleton, but Mrs. Henker insists on him wearing his old clothes from when he was healthy and strong, which now hang on him like rags.
Mr. Henker was once a powerful man, but every day he wishes he could go back in time and marry the girl from his hometown and live a simpler life. He's only alive because each time he tries to die, Mrs. Henker forces him back to life. She keeps a small team of doctors around to prevent him from ending his suffering. He hates Mrs. Henker, and in turn, hates the children he sired.
6'1 (the shortest of the siblings)
Lisa looks and acts like a heron. Lithe, sleek, and always looking perfect in poise and practise. She wears her brown hair (streaked with grey) in a tight bun and wears minimal makeup. She has blue-grey eyes and sharp features. High cheekbones, a tight mouth, a sharp jawline. There is a sense that she's constantly judging the world around her. She is.
Wears shawls, cardigans or turtlenecks almost always. Often likes wearing leggings and long skirts. As we all know, she still wears her late lover Evan's engagement ring as a reminder of what trying to appease her family has cost her.
7'2 (the tallest in the family)
Where Lisa is graceful, Friedrich is powerful. Built like his father in that he's broad and powerful, but he has the same elegance of his mother and older sister. I picture him often like a snow leopard. He doesn't lunge in for the kill, but rather waits until the weakest of the flock stumbles before he attacks.
He has white-blonde hair like his father and the same tight features. Incredibly handsome with a big beard and moustache. Likes to wear his hair like his fathers' when he was in his prime.
Friedrich used to bring women to his family on a regular basis to provide hunts. Friedrich's wife is too traumatized by the hunt to see the family. However, the hunt went awry in that König didn't end up killing her. Friedrich is sometimes dissapointed that König didn't kill her, but he likes that she's terrified of him and her children.
Interestingly, Freidrich hides his worst traits from his childen. The eldest has an idea of what his father is like, and dislikes him for it. He has a very strained relationship with his eldest as a result.
Stefan is the broadest man. He's a bit soft now, he doesn't really work out (not since his wife's suicide). He keeps his head shaved and his beard trimmed close to his jaw. He has brown hair like Lisa's, streaked with premature greying due to the stress in his life.
He's often wearing comfortable professor type clothes. Honestly has the warmest and most welcoming presence, most likely because he's genuinely a good person. He likes to wear his late wife's wedding rings on a necklace. He has blue eyes like his mother, a fact which haunts him every morning in the mirror.
He once had a good relationship with his sons, but they were taken in by an uncle on his mother's side and has had limited interactions since. Is doing his best to convince the boys he didn't murder their mother and that the family is sick, but can't get through to them.
Juan is a man connected to the Carribean mecial industry. He has long black hair streaked with grey, terracotta coloured skin and beautiful sea-green eyes. Likes to have a beard and moustache. He likes wearing whatever's fashionable and 'sexy'. Looks like a DILF, honestly, and he uses it to his advantage to lure in younger women to come to his disgusting celebrity parties (filled with drugs, SA, orgies and general debauchery.
Dirty blond hair kept in a ponytail or loose down her back, Klara is the party girl of the family. She's got a brilliant smile and beautiful blue eyes like her mother. She complains that she has to dye her hair now to keep her youthful look, but everyone can see her crow's feet around her eyes. Looks like a model and acts like it too. She loves to focus on her makeup and accessories. She is always kept in perfect shape through regular plastic surgery modifications by the best in the world, keeping her looking effortlessly beautiful.
She's the most two-faced, as we've learned. She's truly a sick person. She chose Juan because she could get the most money and power out of him. He wanted her name on his arm. They host regular orgies and wild parties filled with debauchery in their many mansions around the world.
Annalise has naturally blond hair but dyes it black to be like her father's. She has hazel eyes, but has many of the sharper Henker features like a tight jaw and long nose. She likes to wear dark, modest clothes and wears her long hair in a ponytail, though the strands by the front are often loose around her face.
Doesn't wear makeup really and has a splattering of freckles across her nose and cheeks alongside a bit of acne.
She's a neat, lovely young woman who's determined to change the family, much like her mother. Little to anyone's knowledge (except maybe Lisa), she has been telling her younger cousins about the family dirt and has been doing her best to change the legacy of the family.
When Annalise comes into power as the new head of the family, the world may even be able to enter a golden age.
Inheriting the natural height and power of his father, König is known as the most brutal of the family. He has blue eyes, short-cropped dirty-blonde hair and the a softer face than the rest of his siblings, something he inherited from his grandfather, who was widely despised in the family for his softness and generosity. As such, he was ridiculed for his looks all his life, leading to him wearing a hood at all times. He has a broad frame, and due to a long life in the military kept to exceptional fitness standards.
König once was a bloodthirsty creature. He was raised to see life as a means to an end, a toy to play with. He is almost completely lacking in any form of empathy, but feels emotions quite strongly. He's learned to be strategic and calculated with every aspect of his life, both to keep power and also to stay in control of himself. I highly suspect König to have traits of ASPD (antisocial personality disorder) in this AU.
He keeps to a moral code of his own choosing. Upon meeting and falling in love with reader, he changes this moral code to be more suitable for her (no longer kills for pleasure namely). He is a surprisingly good father, but sometimes struggles with empathy, which is where reader fills his gaps in nicely.
His children are raised knowing there is great wealth in the family, but barely knows they exist. They do form bonds with Stefan, Lisa and her family, but they only meet their cousins when they have matured and become capable of distancing themselves from the cruelty of the Henker name.
And that's that! Sorry for the long post, but I do have a lot of thoughts about things going on in the background of this story, as you can probably tell. I hope this helps clarify their looks and gives you a better idea of who they are! Also, because of the spoilers, please forgive me for responding so late. Thank you for reading!
