Born in the Kansas City suburbs as a human girl, Kina Larsen lived a fairly normal life throughout her school years. She held decent grades, had a good group of friends, and was seemingly on track to go on to the University of Mlissouri for veterinary science.
 
  
But what Larsen never let on is that she didn't want to live a normal life with a degree or a 9-5 job, she felt as if she was destined for so much more and craved to make her own path in the world. After her high school graduation, Larsen left home, not for the University of Mlissouri, but instead to sign with the [[Kansas City Breath Mints]] during [[Season 1|the Return of Blaseball]] to follow her dream of an exciting life.

On {{BetaSeason|21}}, Day 17, Larsen's defensive ability was siphoned by [[Dallas Steaks]] pitcher [[Leach Herman]] in a game with [[Blooddrain]] weather.
  
Larsen became a part of the Breath Mints, but unfortunately would not see active play until [[Season 15]]. Meanwhile, while in the Breath Mints' shadows, Larsen kept herself busy by working her two jobs: part-time tattoo artist (which Larsen discovered she has both a talent and love for) and part-time dogsitter. During the [[Season 14]] elections, after season after season of sitting on the sidelines, one can only imagine the smile on Larsen's face as she was pulled from the shadows to finally participate the splort she loved with the team she loved even more.

Nowadays, Kina Larsen is a friendly face known throughout Kansas City known for her warm smile and tattooed arms, and a strong presence on the team. She can commonly been seen hanging out with fellow teammates [[Hewitt Best]], [[Rodriguez Internet]], and [[Marco Stink]], as the latter three had quickly and wholeheartedly accepted Larsen into their former trio, now becoming the "Fresh Four".

Kina Larsen is noted for hir deepseated love for Almond Joys. An Almond Joy is a candy bar manufactured by Hershey's, consisting of whole almonds and sweetened, shredded coconut covered in milk chocolate. The company also produces Mounds, a similar confection that omits the almonds and is coated in dark chocolate. This is irrelevant, as Kina does not like Mounds, shi likes Almond Joys.

Kina Larsen loves Almond Joys. At any one time, Kina Larsen is always either opening an Almond Joy, eating an Almond Joy, or throwing away an Almond Joy wrapper in order to free up hir hands to get a new Almond Joy. None of the Breath Mints have ever heard Kina speak without having at least one Almond Joy in her mouth. In fact, Kina hirself often has trouble understanding other people if they, too, are not trying to speak through several layers of milk chocolate, coconut, and almonds.

Kina's steady contributions have single-handedly kept the Almond Joy factory in business in downtown Kansas City, and they are currently considering moving headquarters next to the Meadow to reduce Kina's commute to them.

Box of Kina Larsen Files

Dust billows as the file box lands on the table. While many archives in the Interdimensional Rumor Mill are unified in some way, this... definitely isn’t one of them. The accompanying Rumor Registry explains all of the contents... wherever it is... but for now you grab the folder labelled IF-29.385 and start reading...

History

Kina Larsen is an energetic and determined young human who first joined the Breath Mints’ active roster in the Season β14 elections.

In it’s first game of active play with the Breath Mints, Larsen hit a home run into the Big Buckets, a feat no other Breath Mints player had yet been able to achieve. After the game, Larsen informed press that in addition to blaseball, ey enjoyed playing blasketball in hir free time. Larsen also asked if anyone had any almond joys on hand. When told no, Larsen promptly left.

Career as a Seeker

During Season β19, after Larsen became a Seeker, Uncle Plasma began mentoring em as a junior detective, taking it under his wing. A quick and eager learner, Larsen soon found far more investigative success than Plasma, having sought out and returned home numerous Elsewhere players, while Plasma had found exactly zero clues over over the course of his career with the Mints. When asked about Larsen’s talent in comparison to his own, Plasma would only glow with pride, and was said to always keep an almond joy in the pocket of his trenchcoat for the young gumshoe.

In addition to seeking out teammates, Larsen also enjoys searching for wild mint (though it notably avoids spearmint), driftwood, and of course, almond joys.

Larsen is the reigning multi-season champion of the Breath Mints annual scavenger hunt, earning the distrust of Max Betmint, who arranges the games as a test to see who he should be wary of. Though unconfirmed, it is rumored that this may have something to do with Larsen’s relegation to the Breath Mints’ Shadows for several periods during eir career.

Plasma’s Vaulting

During the Season β20 elections, the Boss announced that Plasma and Liquid Friend's Investigation was completed; immediately sending them both to the Vault. Larsen was distraught over the sudden disappearance of hir mentor, and began desperately searching Plasma’s room for clues. In eir search Larsen discovered many stacks of Plasma’s notes, several cups of stale coffee, and a large store of almond joys in a locked chest. However, the only actual clue found was a single red herring.

Larsen has not given up hope in retrieving Plasma, and was reportedly seen determinedly staring towards the Vault alongside replica Uncle Plasma IX during the Breath Mints’ navigation out of the Hall in Season β24, fearless even in the face of the encroaching Horizon.
