Keiran is usually very serious and quiet. When he does speak it is either to explain something or to be sarcastic towards others.

Keiran has been shown to be a very competant fighter. He is shown to have decent sensing capablities and general awareness of his surroundings (noticing bluffs and feints with ease). He is also shown to be quite powerful, able to block a Gillian's cero (although not without taking damage) and then defeating it with one shot from his released Zapakuto.
Bio
Born in England Keiran lived a very quiet life with his family and he and his brother John were very close. However when he was 18, Keiran came into contact with a Shinigami who for reasons unknown transformed him into a Substitute Shinigami. Keiran then went on to use his new powers to protect others from Hollow attacks and he was able to hold onto the Shinigami's power long enough to develop his own powers.
At the age of 20 Keiran's brother died, causing Keiran to hunt down as many Hollows as possible, suggesting that John was killed by a Hollow. He has continued to move around hunting the Hollows to this day, growing in strength as he went and even learning his Zanpakutō's name at 24. Upon meeting a spiritually aware girl called Tara Stone, he began taking her with him in order to protect her from the variety of Hollows that were hunting her.
Recently Keiran recieved a strange letter from an old aquaintance asking him to head to Karakura Town, Japan. Complying with the request, Keiran began heading east with Tara in tow, in order to discover why this 'aquaintance' would be contacting him after a lengthy absence.
Keiran appears in the story The Foreign Reaper
