Kelsier is from the Mistborn Trilogy a book series by Brandon Sanderson.
I used Simon Baker as a PB for Kelsier for... well, obvious reasons when one reads a description of Kelsier. Kelsier's most notable feature is his smile and his determination to laugh and appear happy. He said it was his own form of defiance. In times of great despair he would smile and refuse to be beaten.
Other notes about his appearance are that he is slightly over six feet tall and blond. His hands and forearms sport thin scratch like scars that overlap over and over. These are the marks of someone who has survived the forced labor camp: The Pits of Hathsin. He not only survived the pits, he escaped them, the only one to do so on his own.
The death of his wife, whom was also sentenced to the pits, triggered his Snap. Snapping is when an Allomancer's abilities manifest. A major traumatic event must occur in order for them to manifest. Usually it happens when one is near death. In Kelsier's case, while he was likely near death at the time, it was seeing his wife beaten to death that truly triggered it.
