BEWARE. EXTREMELY LONG CRIMSON-RANT AHEAD.

also heads up as not all of this is canon anymore due to it being old...

----

And this, everybody, is Kaninchen Metternich's reference page/picture/whatever that Crimson drew forever ago and just recently bother to post! Huzzah!

Beware, as I am in a sardonic mood right now and I don't know why. For those of you who have no idea what sardonic means, here: [link]

Get on with it!

----

His name is (obviously) Kaninchen Metternich. I'm debating changing his first name to Hase, which is more masculine, but it means 'hare' instead of 'rabbit', so i dunno. Plus Kaninchen makes his already unpronounceable name even worse, which is all the better for your confusion and my amusement.
You may have heard the name Metternich before, I quizzed Maroon and it turns out that there was an Austrian prince named Klemens Wenzel von Metternich, who was also a diplomat and very damn good at it too. He was good at manipulating people, in a good way. Too many goods in the last couple sentences. If you're at all interested in the least with the real Metternich, take a look at his wikipedia article: [link]

Anywho. More about my Metternich.

Metternich lives in some sort of parallel version of New York City. Maybe. I still haven't quite decided, but that's the way I'm leaning. To all outside appearances, he is an average weirdo/rebel/punk/whatever teenager who goes to a normal school and lives in a normal apartment building and everything is just dandy. Now of course, the school and the apartment are actually average. Metternich? Not quite so much.
To describe him in a word, he's a genius. Not like Einstein or anything, but still really smart. Now, of course, like most other intelligent kids, everyone else just thinks he's weird. It doesn't help that he insists on staying out of the 'in crowd'.
Unfortunately, however, the people he does hang out with doesn't help much either. Aforementioned 'in crowd', when questioned, usually just lumps him and his friend group in with 'the druggies' or 'the goths/punks/emos/whatevers'. In truth, he really doesn't belong with either. He's only got a few, really close friends, which also don't really belong to any stereoptypical high-school-age social group, and that's just how they roll.

Of course, Metternich is not a normal human. Perish the thought! Of course Crimson had to give him some stupid superpower or something. Metternich more or less has the ability of superspeed. It's pretty easy to understand, it's simply that he's capable of moving faster than a normal human.

Now, more about his background.
Metternich is german. VERY german. So much so german both his parents are also very german and he was born in Germany. However, shortly after his birth, the Metternichs (hah! Metternich, Mrs. Metternich, and Dr. Metternich! I LOVE IT! 8D) moved to America. Metternich - ah, this is getting confusing, so I shall refer to him as Kaninchen - Kaninchen was raised in NYC and is also, therefore, very much an American. Neither of his parents speak a lot of english however, so Kaninchen is capable of switching rapidly between German and English with seemingly no break in the conversation. This, of course, is extremely entertaining to listen to. (I will also note that I don't speak german, so I won't really be putting much into comics that may or may not exist in the future... unless Cream helps me. -.-)

The Metternichs live in a relatively boring apartment building with no particular name yet. let's call it The Renaissance for now, shall we? *coughwhichistotallynotthenameoftheapartmentswheremygrandparentslivecough*. Really the only interesting thing about The Renaissance is that Sam's family also lives there. In an apartment exactly two stories below the Metternichs, neither to the right nor the left but directly under. The apartment in between is empty. At least for the time being, until some some obnoxious twerp named Cerulean who also happens to be a cursed dragon accidentally teleports himself and two demons from the Netherworld - or Hell, you may prefer to call it - to NYC.... But that's a different story.
Anyways, Metternich uses this to his advantage and will often appear in the Crookshank's apartment through the window. Later he visits the other boys the same way.

Sam and Metternich have been best friends since they were little. They're very close friends, however neither is gay, so that should help clear things up. -.-

Oh, and just something funny that I forgot to mention earlier, he dyes his hair black. He's actually got red hair, so if his hood comes off, there's usually a little bit of red at his part. And underneath his hood, he's got a ponytail.
