Quinn O'Kane

"Why do I have to learn something I already know?"

- Quinn O'Kane

Quinn O’Kane, commonly referred to as O’Kane by a lot of people, is a 2015 introduced character. He is the son of Teig O’Kane from the story Teig O’Kane (Tadhg O Cáthán) and the Corpse, written by Douglas Hyde. Generally he's a caring person, who certainly wants to do people proud, and to start with he kept out of the Royal-Rebel conflict, but as events unfolded, and he got closer to Opaline, he came out as a firm Rebel.

Personality
Quinn is an incredibly friendly person, and prefers to keep the peace, despite his firm Rebel stance. He keeps a cheerful disposition no matter the stress, always trying to be the positive force in all kinds of situations. He doesn’t like to see people upset, and does his best to keep everyone happy but this does put a lot of pressure on himself - he’ll never let it on though and resists letting people see his negative emotions.

He does like to be involved, and often will just observe from the sides with his good friend, Opaline Glass. He likes a good gossip, and loves to playfully tease his friends, but he is occasionally afraid of going too far.

Appearance
Quinn is a younger Irish boy, who is quite tall and lean. He seems to hunch over slightly to match his room-mate’s height a bit better. He has plenty of freckles all over, and bright green eyes with platinum blond hair to match. No matter what he wears, he always wears a black hairband to push his fringe out his face.

His colour scheme depends very heavily on light blues and patchwork type patterns, making him stand out from his friends who all embrace a royal look. He seems to wear things much more down-to-earth and heavily reminds people that he lived on a farm before coming to Ever After High. This appearance of his shows that he doesn’t wish to spend money on ridiculous things, and rather be modest and humble.

How the Story Goes
The story focuses on Teig O’Kane, the son of a rich farmer. Teig’s father didn’t waste money on his son, but Teig was an only child and his father loved him very much. His father chose to let Teig spend the money however he wanted and that’s exactly what he did. Teig became unruly and wasted the money away on meaningless things and flirted with many girls, but his father never punished him.

It wasn’t until he began dating a girl called Mary, but his flirting with the other town’s girls didn’t stop. His father grew angry at his son’s ridiculous behaviour and demanded him to marry the girl, or else Teig would lose everything. The son was angry at his father, and loved Mary, but was anxious to marry her at this time. Full of rage, he leaves that night to calm down however stumbles upon a group of fairies.

They surrounded him, and while frozen in fear, Teig was unable to protest against their requests and had a corpse quickly forced upon him. They were trying to prove he was wrong. With no choice but to follow the fairies’ instructions due to the body attached to his back, he agreed to bury the body per their request, promising to change the error of his ways if he survived. The fairies told him to bury the body at one of the five churches that night, however at the first four churches, Teig encounters something that prevents him from burying the body.

When he arrives at the first church, he discovers the corpse can actually speak, and proceeds to help him through the journey. At the first church, he could not find a space to bury the corpse. At the second church, ghosts of all sorts of men and women and children prevented him from moving forward. At the third church, it seemed alright until something invisible tried to kill him, preventing him from even getting close. And at last, at the fourth church, it seemed he was destined not to bury this body. With a flash of lightning, the fourth church was burned to the ground.

So Teig had to make his way to the final church. Just as he was arriving, first light was peeking over the hill, and so the corpse told him to hurry. With haste, Teig dug a grave at the fifth church and once the grave was dug, the corpse finally let go, and Teig buried the body. At last he was done.

He kept his promise and before returning home, he rested at an inn, before returning home and proving he hadn’t ran away. He was home barely a fortnight before he married Mary, and he was happy as he could be.

How does O'Kane come into it?
As Teig O'Kane's son, Quinn is expected to romance several girls and foolishly spend money and just. Well. Be a nuisance in Quinn's own eyes. These selfish actions cause him to be forced by fairies to go on a hard journey to bury a talking corpse. Honestly, Quinn doesn't mind his destiny on a whole. He'd happily follow it, but he slowly takes a Rebel stance over his Neutral one.

He slowly began disagreeing with his destiny, and began disagreeing hugely about following destinies if it's for the worst. He firmly doesn't want to follow his destiny anymore due to feeling like it's a lesson he's already learnt and that it's forcing him to marry someone he might not love. He does struggle with this rebelling however due to being afraid of disappointing his dad.

Family
The only family O'Kane has is his dad. The two have a really close relationship and work on the farm together, taking care of the many animals and crops. Even though O'Kane moved to a Rebel stance, the two are still close, and his dad isn't disappointed for his opinions, but O'Kane worries about disappointing his dad, even while being a Rebel.

Friends
which idiots do they hang out with?

Pet
Quinn has a pet rabbit that’s white and brown patterned, called Patchwork. His Thronecoming outfit is loosely themed around his pet, following the theme of others.

In addition to this, Quinn has cared for many other animals, but the rabbit appears to be the pet he has with him the most.

Romance
O'Kane has no romantic intentions, and appears to be very resistant to romantic approaches, especially from females.

Enemies
Quinn doesn’t make enemies very easily, and in fact gets along very well with a lot of people. Even with the Royal/Rebel conflict, he sees no need to have enemies because of it.

Outfits
As mentioned before, he wears a lot of light blues and patchwork patterns. Most of his closet consists of shirts, and generally just comfy clothes.
