Keva Schmitz

Keva Schmitz is a character originally from the Wiess plane, but now resides in COMA.

Background
Keva was born into an abusive household in Germany, he was there for the first seven years of his life with his father being the main source of aggression to the family. It was due to these circumstances that Keva was soon put up for adoption, and soon found his way to the USA to live with a small, rural family. Keva enjoyed living with his adopted family, however one member, the uncle, always acted strange and passively hostile towards Keva, which is something that always bothered him. In this new family Keva was raised to hunt and farm, living off of the land much like the rest of his adopted family did. Keva became well accustomed to firearms, being taught by the father through clay pigeon shooting and regular hunting, that they were both a tool for hunting and a means of protection, and in the same vein that he should always stand up for himself, and his family, especially if it was a woman.

These words of wisdom however planted the seeds for Keva's incarceration; whilst growing up to the age of thirteen, Keva gradually learned more about the mysterious uncle and the heinous acts he partook in. It took a lot of courage on Keva’s part, but he decided that his adopted father’s words were enough, and upon hearing the distress of one of his uncles disgusting acts, he entered the room, gun in hand, and opened fire with a single shell, the around dozen pellets immediately killing his adoptive uncle. Despite the circumstances, Keva was still arrested and tried, and soon found his way to Juvenile Hall.

Juvenile Hall was unpleasant for Keva to say the least, his family visiting frequently for the first few months, but becoming more and more infrequent and never getting any less awkward as time went on, before becoming very rare up to his transferral to prison, which quickly approached with his 18th birthday. Keva plotted to escape during the transfer from Juvie to Prison, however after a short sprint and a run in with a trigger-happy prison guard, Keva was shot, being killed instantly.

Keva soon found himself in the afterlife, his soul collected by Heart, and in usual Heart fashion his luck was tried on the wheel of fortune, cursing him to continue on in the afterlife missing his head, unless he killed an individual from outside the afterlife, lifting the curse. After a long while of genuine struggle with no sense of direction, he managed to accidentally scare a certain maître d to literal death. This was achieved due to the individuals personal anxieties and the sheer horror of Keva’s appearance. Although the kill was unintentional, Heart still counted it after being persuaded by his following, lifting the curse from Keva with his own hands.
