Backstory: Kieran was born into a wealthy English noble family and was the first born son. Kieran was given anything he wanted as a child though he did not become a spoiled brat and was a kind, gentle, and caring child. As he got older his parents started grooming him to take over the family business and become a lawyer. Kieran did what his parents told him but his heart was never in it and did it half heartedly.
His life changed forever at a chance meeting with Lynn Harper, she was beautiful, smart, caring, and didn’t care that he was rich and going places. For both of them it was love at first sight and for Kieran who was used to being able to have any woman he wanted but he didn’t want to do anything like that with her. Kieran courted Lynn for a long time before going out on a real date something that Lynn was not used to at all coming from a poor family. It took Kieran a while to work up the courage to introduce Lynn to his parents while they were not happy that their son was dating someone of such lower class than him, but let him continue with their relationship thinking it was a passing thing. Kieran started college in prelaw at an Ivy league school though he was very unhappy about it when Lynn convinced him that if he was unhappy with the path his life was taking then he should do something about because it was his life. After that Kieran confronted his parent on this, telling them that he wanted to get a job helping people, while Lynn supported him. His parent were furious and told him point blank that he was to dump Lynn and never see her again and that he was to go back to college for prelaw just like his parents had planned for him or they would disown him and he would never be allowed to come home again. He told them no and the kicked him out and told him he had a half an hour to get his things. Kieran was hurt badly by how things had gone between him and his parents but Lynn was there for him and he knew that as long as they had each other he knew that they would be ok. Kieran and Lynn both got jobs while they supported their way through college. Kieran worked hard on a double major in education and psychology to become a school guidance counselor while Lynn worked on becoming a teacher. In the fall of their senior year using money he had managed to save and scrounge up to by a diamond engagement ring and proposed to Lynn, she said yes and they spent their first night together. During the July of the following their graduation Kieran and Lynn were married it was a small wedding and only a few member of Kieran family showed up for the wedding. They went for a week long honeymoon down in Aruba. While driving back to their hotel their car was struck by a drunk driver and their car spun out of control and flipped over. Kieran was badly hurt with a concussion and a broken arm and leg but Lynn was not so lucky and was left in a coma. Kieran was devastated by what had happen to his wife it left him a major depression but the job that he had gotten with Lynn at a Gotham public school as a guidance counselor helped him get over it by helping him get over his issues by helping out the kids. Kieran visited the hospital everyday spending time with Lynn telling her about his day, reading to her, and just talking to her. He quickly became a fixture at the hospital and got to know all the doctors and nurses in the wing his wife was in. He kept doing this even after 3 years unfazed and unchanging still deeply devoted to her which surprised the staff with how consistent he was even after all this time and how unlike it was that she would ever wake up. His love for his wife attracted to attention of a nearby Star Sapphire who observed him for a month as he interacted with the kids at his school, his wife, and all the other people around him. This attracted the of the Star Sapphires and after much discussion the Zamarons decided to give him a ring and had one of the Zamaron do so personally since this would be the first Male Star Sapphire that they had ever appointed.
The Zamaron, Dirael, arrive freaked out Kieran who had never actually met an alien before but Dirael calmed him down enough to talk to him about that she was offering which he could forget about all of this and very deal with this choice again or he could accept the ring and help save love like that he shared with his wife but it was entirely his choice and he was the only one who could make the choice to put on the ring, but the most important thing was for him to listen to what his heart told him to do. When Kieran put the ring on the power it had almost over whelmed him but his wife word about how he was in control of his own life gave him the strength to fight back and take control over the ring and not the other way around. The Zamaron gave Kieran a basic lesson in what the ring could do and let him know that if he had any questions he could ask the ring and then left but first told him that the most important thing he could do with his new found power was to follow his heart.
While he was in control of the ring he still felt its pull to protect true love. While many Star Sapphire’s would have used their powers to take direct action he took a more subtle and controlled approach just talking to them and starting couples consulting to help pay the bills and help preserve love. Thus far he has not really interacted with any of the other Lantern Corps and has only has minimal interaction with the other Star Sapphire's mainly with the Zamaron who gave him the ring though this is due to him not leaving the planet.

Please include a sample post/scene
Also a Test scene- here
Kieran brought a bouquet of tulips to replace to flowers he had gotten for Lynn last week. Tulips had been her favorite spring flower and if she woke up he wanted her to have some to show how much he cared for her if he wasn’t there when she woke up. He worked hard to get Lynn a room to herself and he had it set in a way that he thought she would like. When he got into the room he walked over to her and gave her a kiss on the cheek before replacing the flowers he had gotten for her. He then sat down in the chair by her bed and opened the book he had been reading to her The Great Gatsby. After doing that for an hour or so he started talking to her telling her about his day, how much he missed her, and just small talk.
