kouta_by_kumoriryuu-d9qodtg.jpg









Description: Kouta is a tall, athletic, and handsome young man. He usually carries a calm and endearing expression on his face which makes him easy to talk to. He’s also very polite which is one of the reasons he has many friends, both male and female. His hair is short and spiky, sometimes looking a bit unkempt depending on whether or not he decides to comb it in the morning after a shower. His eyes are a light amber brown and his skin is fairly tanned from spending many hours outside during the day. He usually wears light and flexible clothing as he prizes the flexibility and freedom of movement when not in school. His school clothing is fairly restrictive and he doesn’t enjoy wearing it at all.


Kouta is at the peak of his physical condition. At 17 years of age there are few who can match him in terms of sheer definition of his musculature. Because of his martial arts training his body is very lean with less than 0.5% body fat in most areas which makes his muscles appear bigger than they really are. He has a decently thick neck leading down to a broad and well shaped pair of shoulders. His torso tapers down in a classic “V” shape to his waist and leads down into his hips. His legs are long, and his upper to lower body ratio is roughly 45:55 because of it. His athletic frame is second to none in his school among the boys and because of that he’s well known and despised when fitness day comes around.


Age: 17


Height: 6’ 1”


Weight: 190 lb.


Hair Color: Brown


Eye Color: Amber


Body Type: Mesomorph


Voice Type: Baritone


Personality: Kouta is a calm and well adapted individual for his age. Thanks to his training in martial arts since the day he could walk he is highly confident and terrifyingly determined when in pursuit of his goals. He has unshakable willpower when his mind is set on a course of action and he will stop at nothing to finish what he starts. However he is not at all unreasonable and will follow the course of action which has the highest success rate rather than push forward with a plan that’s only half cocked. He’s highly intelligent and very perceptive as well.


Kouta is also a very caring individual which is often proven by his friendly demeanor. He never hesitates to ask when someone is all right if he feels they have a reason not to be. He will also go to extreme lengths to ensure that his friends remain safe and unharmed in potentially dangerous situations. Kouta’s sense of devotion to his friends and family are also a reason why he has as many friends as he does. He always responds to calls and texts in a timely manner, he responds to emails in a timely manner, and he never fails to make good on a promise.


Kouta has a much darker side. Due to his brutal training in martial arts by his father he is very desensitized to violence and will not hesitate to cause as much pain as possible to anyone who has brought harm to either himself, his family, or his friends. He has sent numerous would-be assailants and street punks to the hospital and has received some notoriety in the area as a result. There are very few who know of Kouta who would risk crossing him due to the fear of bringing about his wrath. To date the most amount of damage he has caused to a single individual includes a broken collar bone (in three places), broken radius and ulna bones in the forearm, a cracked scapula (shoulder blade), 4 cracked vertebrae, 8 broken ribs, cracked femur, broken fibula, and a cracked skull. Needless to say, the hospital bill bankrupted the family of the victim of Kouta’s wrath, but because it was ruled as self defense Kouta himself was not charged by authorities though he was given a warning that if he ever caused this kind of excessive damage again he would face prison time.

Biography: Kouta was born on September 28, 1999 and is fast approaching his 18th birthday. His mother, Nanako Shiragami, is a librarian as well as a novelist. His father, Tomoyo Shiragami, is a martial arts Master who owns and runs his own chain of martial arts schools. He grew up as an only child and at first struggled to adapt to the life his father wished for him. His father wanted him to become the head of the martial arts school by the time he turned 20, but Kouta himself has almost no interest in that particular plan. Nevertheless Kouta has trained diligently under his father’s ultra-strict tutelage and become a fine specimen who can give his father a run for his money in a fight.


As Kouta grew throughout his early years he met many other children in school and at gatherings his mother held when the time came for a meet and greet of fans of her books. It was at such a meet and greet where he met his future flame, Yume Sakuraba. The two did not get along very well at first. Kouta’s strict upbringing made him rather stiff and un-inclined to enjoy the simpler aspects of life such as running around and playing outside on the playground. Kouta’s mother asked him to go outside and play with Yume, who was the daughter of one of his mother’s friends from her job as a librarian. Kouta protested at first but soon agreed with a bit of poking and prodding from his mother.


Kouta and Yume “played” together outside for around 3 hours before Nanako finally came to pick him up and take him home. By “played” together, it really was nothing more than sitting opposite one another with their backs to one another in the sandbox. Yume toyed with the sand and Kouta stretched the whole time. That was their first playdate. Nanako asked if he’d like to see and play with Yume again but he adamantly refused to do so. For the next few years until he was 9 he never saw Yume again, but when he did his attitude had changed as had hers. It helped that their parents didn’t tell them that it was them, and they didn’t recognize each other so the introduction was fresh and their friendship just as much so. But by the end of the day they were reminded of their first meeting which made both of them laugh.


The two of them grew up inseparably after that. Wherever Kouta was, Yume was close at hand and vice a versa. Kouta’s training under his father increased in intensity which made it a good thing for Kouta physically and psychologically that Yume was always there. More often than not he ended up exhausted after his training sessions and sometimes mildly injured. Yume’s support was a welcome change in Kouta’s life and he always thanked her for helping him recover after his sessions were over. Because of Yume’s support Kouta was able to endure his father’s brutal and unorthodox training methods and became a force to be reckoned with by the time he was only 11 years old.


When they entered high school, the two were officially a couple to nobody’s surprise. Kouta was something of a superstar among the sports lovers in the school thanks to his martial arts training honing him into the ultimate physical specimen. At the same time, Kouta has never been more despised by the other boys in the school, especially when Fitness Day comes around. To date, nobody has broken his official school record of 87 sit-ups in 60 seconds, nor his record of 78 (full) push ups in 60 seconds. Needless to say the boys in his class hate him on Fitness Day as he shows them all up with no effort whatsoever and when he plays sports in PE, he’s completely unstoppable thanks to his flexibility, hand-eye coordination, and his superior stamina and endurance.


But no matter how physically fit he is, nothing will prepare Kouta for what is to come… Nothing.








yume_by_kumoriryuu-d9qodv0.jpg



Description: Yume is a beautiful and proud young woman, and it shows in every facet of her being. She is tall, slender, athletic, walks with elegance (her back straight and head up at all times), and speaks with confidence. She has extremely long brown hair kept tied in a ponytail that falls to her ankles and bangs which stop just above her eyes. Her eyebrows are naturally slim and arched meaning she doesn’t need to tend to them to make them look like they’ve been prepared by plucking. Deep chocolate brown eyes can pierce your soul with a single glance and her smile can bring you joy and happiness in even the darkest and most dangerous of places.


She has a slender and graceful neck which slopes down gently into her shoulders. Her arms are long and elegant, and her chest is deceptively large due to her binding her breasts with cloth underneath her uniform. She has a slender waist and softly muscled abdominals helping retain her femininity but leaving no doubt as to her athleticism. Her hips are shapely and lead down into a pair of gorgeously long legs as well as a taught, round posterior. In short she has a near perfect hourglass figure with all the best features men desire. Along with her curves in all the right places she has next to no body fat beyond her bust and less than 3% in her hips and legs.


Age: 17


Height: 5’ 9”


Weight: 135 lb.


Hair Color: Brown


Eye Color: Brown


Measurements: 36-24-34


Body Type: Mesomorph


Voice Type: Mezzo-Soprano


Personality: Yume is a cheerful and highly motivated young woman. Her father is a successful and well renowned music producer and her mother a former model and Japanese Idol. Quite the combo which resulted in a rather stunning daughter if they do say so themselves and they’re very proud of her. Her father’s work ethic and her mother’s charm and grace helped shape her into a prim and proper young woman who always observes the rules, finds inventive ways to solver problems, and always does her best to see the positives of her situation. Yume is a hard worker and a diligent student holding a perfect 4.0 record all throughout middle and high school and as well is an athlete which is appropriate given another important factor in her life.


She is a kind hearted and maternal girl and has a special love of children. She knows that she’d be a good mother someday and yearns to be just so in the future. She usually gives everyone the benefit of the doubt even in the most scandalous of situations, as is proven by her believing and forgiving Kouta when he was tricked into looking into the girl’s locker room window by a few of the less charming boys in his PE class. She helped him save face with the other girls and earned him their forgiveness as well much to the dismay of the boys who tricked him in the first place. She’s also very charming and has a way with words that’s almost unparalleled. When she wants something it is impossible to ignore her. At least for very long.


Hobbies


* Singing


* Dancing


* Reading


* Gardening


* Watching The Sunset


Biography: Yume’s father, Soun Sakuraba, then 22 years old, was working a recording session in what was then his newly opened recording studio for his second client as an independent producer. It was then that he met Yume’s mother, Aoi Sakuraba, then 19 years old, who was a former model and then Japanese Idol. The recording sessions captivated him from the start the moment she walked into the room and introduced herself, and when the session was over he asked if she’d ever think about going on a date with him. At first she was reluctant to do so, being warned about such relationships by her manager, but eventually agreed. One date was all it took for them to learn exactly what they needed to know and a full relationship formed soon after. One year later they were married, and not long after Aoi’s 21st birthday Yume came into their world.


Aoi was a loving and doting mother which gave Yume all the love and attention a little girl could desire from her mother. Their bond was incredibly strong and made all the more relevant by the fact that Aoi gave up her career as an Idol to be a full time mother. However, even though her time in the spotlight was short and sweet, her popularity never waned due to Soun’s continuing to record her songs and making records of them to sell as extra income. She gained a wide fanbase around the world for her elusive nature and the fact that she never made public appearances only strengthened her fanbase’s love of her and her music which became the backbone of their income for a while as Soun was struggling at that time in his career. Little Yume was often in the studio with her father on slower days, but spent the majority of time with her mother Aoi who frequented a library teaching Yume a love of reading.


It was around that time as well that Yume was first introduced to Kouta Shiragami, but the two did not get along. The children went outside to play, but all Kouta wanted to do was focus on his martial arts training and little Yume couldn’t stand that. She played in the sand while he sat with his back to her and they remained separate and in silence. They also told their parents that they didn’t care to see each other for future playdates which made both of their mothers laugh and all the more determined to help them become friends in the future when they were a little more mature and ready for such interaction. That time came when Yume and Kouta were 9 years old. The two were reintroduced to one another anonymously by their parents who hoped that nature would take its course and the two would become friends if they weren’t reminded of their sour first meeting. The tactic worked like a charm.


Kouta became the light of Yume’s life and was her best friend by far. Wherever he went, she followed and a special connection was quickly made. By the time they’d been friends for less than one year Yume knew she was in love. But her immaturity at the time didn’t allow her to say such to Kouta. Instead she waited until just before they began high school to tell him of the full extent of her feelings for him. Remarkably, the stoic and often dense Kouta admitted to returning her feelings and the two became a fully recognized couple. It was a pairing made in heaven for the two of them, but it brought great dismay to both the girls and boys of their class and around the school in general. Kouta’s looks and athleticism made him an object of affection for many young girls at school, and Yume’s brains and grace made her the unofficial “Queen” of the school and many of the boys were nuts about her. Not quite how they wanted to begin high school, but it wasn’t a terrible start by any means.


The pair hit their first speed bump when Kouta insisted on going to the United States for an international martial arts competition and Yume wanted him to stay in Japan with her. The ensuing argument brought them to a heated debate with Kouta eventually winning out on his desire to leave. However this left Yume rather distraught during his absence as she had never spent more than two days away from him until this point. Now she was left to spend nearly two whole months without him which for her felt like an eternity. The entire time she stayed in Japan she was tested about Kouta leaving her by other jealous girls and she was approached by numerous boys pushing forward now that Kouta wasn’t around to stop them. It was horrible for her, and when he came back she threw herself at him asking for forgivingness for being so selfish and demanding that he stay with her. She promised never to behave like that again as she spent the entire two months wondering if his feelings had wavered in the wake of their argument. But Kouta affirmed that nothing had changed and that she didn’t have to worry about such things ever again.


Yume has never been happier in her life than she is now with Kouta by her side, but nothing will prepare her for the tragic and dangerous events which lie ahead… Nothing.

"Taking into account of the 24 to 3 ratio and our skill sets,I'd say we have a 65 percent percent survival rate"





Name:
Pallas Alden "Kaya willow" She hates her name,it's old and ugly in her opinion. Pallas means wisdom and her parents being legal genius they had very high hopes for her. online she is known by Kaya willow,and her friends,since she only has internet friends, only know her by this name.





(also her name is like saying palace but replace the A's with O's and adding the sss sound extending the ce sound)


Picture:

tumblr_loprniwVnG1qbvovho1_500.gif



Description: She has short choppy hair,cut to keep out of her face rather than styling/neatness. When she let's her hair down it is very thick and curly. This is on account of her being Greek. She can also thank her brown eyes,slight freckles, round lips on her Greek heredity as well. Most of her expressions make others uncomfortable as they are usually forced or awkward. She is a 36 b which is rather small for most greek woman but it's not like she ever wears anything to show of her form or chest anyway. She actually has a very nice bikini body yet her awkwardness would most likely disable her to pull it off.


Age: 14


Height: 5'4


Weight: 115


Hair Color: brown


Eye Color: brown


Body Type: Average greek body type


Voice Type: monotone soprano


Personality: Shy for the most part, and dorky. Pallas is often marked off as arrogant. It's not that she sees herself better than everyone,in fact she doesn't think very highly of herself at all. She just has a habit of pointing out everyone's flaws. She does this all in good will,her parents encouraged her in this form and she wishes to encourage others. By telling everybody why they fail in life,and what makes others better than them,she hopes the will improve and become the best they can be.


Not only does she lack in people skills but she's also robotic in her attempts of repartee. Her conversation consist of her spitting out facts numbers and whatever else programed
rumble is stuck in her head. She isn't very good at relaying her feelings but if you can get over her dead panned look and insults then she is a very good listener. She prefers to spend her time with others silent. When she does try to be herself it mainly comes out awkward.


Habits/Hobbies:


stargazing/star charting


online chatting



studying



Biography:


Life has always been the same for Pallas. Restricted this,restricted that. Everything perfectly planned out by her overbearing parents. With her father pressuring her to be smarter and her mother pressuring her to be better She finds it hard to make friends since everyone she meets is a competitor for herself in her parents game. This is why she was driven to online friendships. Here she doesn't have to compete or can her parents compare Pallas's friends to Pallas. When she isn't studying, learning or sitting through some awful dinner party,she is in her computer room exploring or strengthening her friendships.


A genius? Hopefully.Pallas's test have come back unclear. Her evaluating and "on demand" problem solving is impressive.This means that she works well under pressure and situationally aware of most things she goes through.Outstanding in these attributes everything else she tested proved her to be above average,yet not a genius.She was only 11 when she took the test so now she is kept at home eating only certain foods and even breathing certain air while she sleeps.(her bedroom is filtered) this s all in hopes that her brain will fully develop when she goes back for testing again on her sixteenth birthday.



Despite the fact that her life is already planned and destiny seemed to have ignored her (like everyone else) she is still a dreamer. Something deep down inside her makes her feel that life isn't just this. That something big is going to happen,something that will change her life forever. She told this to her parents and they were delited ,but not in the way she was hoping. "you are getting confused by your own thoughts" they told her. they implied that she was evaluating too many things at one time that she just couldn't keep up with herself. It was at this time that she was thrown into brain training,or well it was thrown at her as she is kept in her house. It's not that she is a prisoner,everything she needs is in her home,all 20,000 square feet of it, and wouldn't want to leave anyway.

Name: Nevyn Sloane (Gaelic)


20150608003943_sjEvG.thumb.700_0.jpeg



Description: Nevyn has a strong athletic build, though his muscles have formed more lean, like a runner, than as thick and large like a muscle builder. His eyes are an intense yellow/brown that seem to show his determined and callous nature.


His skin is tough after years of playing rough sports and there isn't any unnecessary fat found in his build. His legs are longer than any other part of him, giving him an advantage in sports that involve running a long distance in a short amount of time. He has long dexterous fingers, from playing the piano when he was younger. He keeps his hair short, no longer than just bellow his ears.



Age: 19


Height: 5'10


Weight: 160lb


Hair Color: Light Brown


Eye Color: Yellow/Brown


Body Type: Athletic


Voice Type: Tenor


Personality:


Nevyn has been pushed by his parents from a very young age not to settle. To push until he achieves exactly what he wants. This in turn has made him into a poor sport and losing tends to make him lose his cool. He’s not used to losing and it shows in his arrogance around others. Constantly looking down on people and making sure they know where they stand in regards to himself.


Instead of letting the pressure his family puts on him to be the best get to him, he plows through it and takes the burden on his own, refusing to let it land on anyone else. Often when this pressure gets to be too much he lashes out at the people around him. Quick to throw sharp words, aimed to harm at the people around him. As such he doesn't have many friends, and usually he’s too busy to either notice or care.


Nevyn has a strong need to be a leader around others, even if he’s not the best choice. Used to bossing those less than him around, and under the impression that he is smarter than others in his group. He does not take kindly to others opinions, though he himself is very opinionated and open minded, it takes time for him to process others ideas. He will never take another’s ideas as his own, fully believing in his own power to come up with idea’s and solve problems. However it is also likely he won’t apologize if he decides that another member’s idea was better than his and he squanders it before accepting it.


He does not take well to following other’s orders, perhaps because he’s too used to following the plan his parent’s have laid out for him, and needing to control at least some aspect of his life. It’s common for Nevyn to do things his own way in a group, forcing the group to follow his lead anyway. Especially if he’s firm in the belief that his way is the best way.


People often get the first impression of Nevyn as a classic jerk. Rude and to the point. He cares little for what others think or feel and is quick to insult what he perceives as ‘weak.’ However, his friends who have either known him a long time or stuck by him despite his actions learn that Nevyn is fiercely loyal and quick to protect those he considers close to him.


Habits/Hobbies (List at least three)


Biography:Nevyn grew up in a well off household and went to a private school his whole life. Since he was young he’s learned that he was better than the common person, even better than his peers. He grew up preached to about how he had to continue to bring pride and joy to his household.


Nevyn has always enjoyed playing sports, soccer and basketball being his favorites. He played all throughout High School and was offered quite a few scholarships into lesser colleges for playing the sport professionally. His parents saw this as nothing more than a triviality and many of the scholarships were declined.


Nevyn has no siblings. Mother is a Financial Adviser for a Large Bank Firm and His father is a Doctor. In their success they push Nevyn to do better than his best, and his father has often pushed Nevyn to become a doctor like him. Nevyn, having no real strength or motivation in learning advanced medical terminology, came to a compromise to train and learn physical education/physical therapy in college. This both allowed him to work in physical exercise and train to be in the medical field.


While School isn’t what he wanted it to be, and he has to work much harder than many students, doing what they love, he would find it weak in his character to complain or to fight to do what he really wants to do. He doesn't dwell on what his soul yearns for and shoves such urges away as unnecessary distractions.

Name: Phillipa C. Ramos (aka. Pippa)


Picture:


wkNjUC53iH4.jpg



Description:


-When presenting herself to others Philippa has usually one goal in mind, and that is to assert the fact that she's not to be messed around with...she calls it being a "bad bitch". She always carries herself with confidence and attitude, and while that might rub people the wrong way Philippa doesn't seem to take notice.


-Though she's kinda lazy, she takes dancing seriously and she always tries to exercise and train regularly (her slim athletic build proves it)


-Always sort of vain, she's quite careful of how she dresses and presents herself, and you can often see fixing her hair or her re-applying her favourite dark red lipstick while walking around.


-She knows she looks sweet and innocent, and you can bet your ass she's always taking advantage of that.



Clothes:


tumblr_nzh4deMMmA1qhahtxo4_1280.jpg



Age: 17


Height: 1.60


Weight: 55kg


Hair Color: Brown


Eye Color: Dark Brown


Body Type: Athletic


Voice Type: Mezzo-Soprano


Personality:


Philippa is an outspoken and confident girl...some might even call her a bit "crass". She isn't afraid of drawing attention to herself, and she doesn't worry about what other people think of her. She often tries to project a nonchalant attitude, but her hot-headedness usually get the best of her, and usually leads her to troutle. One of the bigger flaws in her personality is her tendency to lack tact or manners. Sometimes she just doesn't know how to handle herself when a situation get emotional. When she feels she is loosing control of a situation she quickly resorts to snark and mockery. You can usually see her making inappropriate jokes when she's feeling awkward or inadequate.


She has the ability to be very charming and persuasive when she wants to. An ability that has actually gotten her out of trouble a lot of times. Protective and even kinda sweet when it comes to those who are close to her Philippa can be a true team player (a necessary skill when you once were in the school's cheer squad). But if anyone gets on her bad side she’s willing and ready to use any underhanded method to make them pay. She's definitely know for never shying away from the “bitchy cheerleader” stereotype. However, don't be fooled, deep down she's 100% the kind of girl that will bake you a cute cake for your birthday. And then probably make fun of you when you get emotional about it.


Habits/Hobbies


-Dancing



-Listening to music (she's always walking around with headphones around her neck)



-Watching horror movies



-Will never admit it, but she loves baking and watching cooking shows.



Biography:


Born in an immigrant puerto rican family that decided to move to Japan, Phillipa felt out of place for a lot of years. Her main strategy to deal with this was to pretend she didn't care. So instead she only focused on her dancing. Her first years at school weren't easy, mostly because of her initial resistance to socialize with others (she often got frustrated when she stumbled with the language).


It took more than a few scuffles and a LOT of hours in detention, before the people in school finally learned Philippa didn't take shit from anyone. But then her mother (tired from all the calls she was getting from the school) gently "insisted" she join a club or something. Because it was the closest she could find to dancing, Philippa joined the cheer squad and (while she never got around to loving the sport) she did find some close friends there.


Next to her (soon-to-be-a-lawyer) sister Soledad, and her mother Helena (a cop) Philippa has always felt kind of left out. But she keeps dancing and training (something's she's been doing since she was 10) and her family tries to support her as best as they can. Her mother never lost the hope Philippa would go into law enforcement. So she never stopped teaching her self defence and even some fighting tricks. Sadly she KINDA came to regret when Philippa kept getting in trouble.


Currently they all live in a small
(and kinda cramped) apartment in the city. Since her sister Soledad is finishing an internship in a law firm, her mother is always working and Philippa works part time in a small bakery they don't get to see each other as often as they would like.


Nowadays Philippa is more at ease, her attitude and conduct haven't really improved but she seems happier. In school her situation remains the same: most teachers have her already pegged as a troublemaker, and she sure as hell enjoys walking down the hallway and seeing some people move aside. But, she remains ambitious and excited for the future. She hopes to enter a good performing arts conservatory where she can dedicate herself to contemporary dance. Sadly this is something she hasn't yet discussed with her family. But who can blame her? Her mother is a cop, her older sister is a lawyer...and Pippa, well Pippa is definitely aware of how strange "contemporary dance" sounds next to all of that.


Not that it'll matter much when the world decides to go to hell...

Name

Nils Dahlberg AKA Nagi Degawa

rZZ9gsx.jpg



Description


With a short yet lean build, Nils is a young teenage boy with an overall pleasant aesthetic to the eyes of those around him, save a few common exceptions. This, combined with a confident, seemingly fearless posture lead others to be fairly surprised by how mature of an impression he gives off. He dresses to impress whenever needed, otherwise showing a clear slack for conventional habits when such conditions do not bound him in the slightest. One might say there's two sides to him, the pure depiction of a rich, charismatic heir and the violent "little devil" with an abnegation streak. Nils often changes his mannerisms, traits, even speech patter once he figures out what pleases those he interacts with, making it easier for him to build a good social atmosphere surrounding him. His looks show a clear connection to his Norwegian roots, perhaps even certain habits and alike, such as his significant sensitivity towards cold temperatures, contributing to the same effect, while his Japanese roots are reflected in his overall build and complexion. With his round-shaped eyes, long blonde eyelashes and messy hair, some may fall for the charms of this boy, some may not and instead find him to be unsettling, repulsive even. One thing is clear just from your first encounter with him : this kid is one to be feared if certain conditions are met...



Age

Height

Weight


112.0 lb



Hair Color

Eye Color


Blue



Body Type


Mesomorph



Voice Type


Tenor



Personality


A troublemaker and a trickster at heart, Nils is often described by others as "a guy that always gets what he wants in the end", leading some to feel intimidated by his presence. Reserved yet attentive, there is no denying that despite his refusal to bare himself before others and his hot temper, he can be a valuable asset for those he works for, relying both his wits and strength in order to escape an unfortunate fate. A blunt, cynical, and somewhat nihilistic individual, he is the kind of guy that snaps easily and when he does, there's no stopping him. He always gets what he wants one way or another, and he specifically dislikes when people oppose him. He is very brash and brutal, showing no hesitation when bludgeoning his opponents, as well as somewhat vulgar and irritable at times. He has shown to be a dominant, demanding individual who is hard to please. Nils has overall an aloof, tough attitude and often hides away his sentimentality.



He doesn’t care much about his appearances, hygiene, or likes/dislikes at all. In fact, he doesn’t care much about anything except those who he deems important to him. He’s great at bullshitting, flapping his trap, and changing his tone and manner based on who he’s talking to. He’s not particular on the details. So long as the job gets done, he’s good. However, he’s oddly methodical about some things. Adaptive, reactive, and decisive, he draws those around him in a very natural way. And he knows it. He knows what people wish for with a few exchange of words and an exchange of gazes, making him a very, very dangerous boy to walk around freely. Many consider him to be a source of both frustration and success, who cannot handle heavy responsibilities without putting something at risk. Life is made of chances and he likes to take them whenever he can. While he does enjoy a challenge (and sometimes even smiles in a rather terrifying fashion when starts to get into it), he knows when to set his interests aside to help others in need, showing an unwavering loyalty and passion for what he believes in.



He doesn't give a damn unless you count for something. But truth is, not everything is black and white with him. Despite his upbringing, he’s rather gullible and brash, which is where most of his losses stem from. However, he’s very observant. Unfortunately, he can also be reckless when riled up. He does have his fair share of skeletons in his closet, after all. Nils is a scared little boy, afraid of the shadows that haunt him wherever he goes, afraid of being forgotten, afraid of seeing those he knew in the past, afraid of letting someone get attached to him. He's rude, perverted, sickening even to look at. A truly pathetic, childish little boy. But he's human, despite all. Though the reason for that according to him is his lack of initiative and high laziness, in reality he does hold morals at heart. What a shocker, wouldn't you agree? He is protective, almost to the point of possessive, especially if it concerns a certain someone...

Biography


The upbringing of a wealthy, pampered brat has its faults and hard times, especially in the case of a subject who early on shows to be of both an impulsive, violent character that utterly despises the norms and conventions that bound him to a mere pawn in society. Addressing Nils as a troublesome child to raise would be an understatement by the eyes of the patriarch of the Dahlberg family. The boy would be shaped by the hand of a stern, idealistic alpha to which he, as of now, considers either to be of egotistical compensation or just driven by one's own life as a son. And so, he would abide to his father's whims, never leaving his dear mother in tears after, say, nearly beating to death a peer who had found joy in stoning a stray dog in front of his eyes. Oh no...Nils would be a jack-of-all-trades, a respectable son, even a tool at times for his parents to achieve what they could not alone. A perfect member of society.


He would never find himself thrilled by his achievements, his everyday life, nothing. All would be an obligation, a rule to follow, something he was forced to endure in order to become someone to the eyes of others, all the torturing him further and further. Things would come to a halt once he found himself in the company of young gentlemen rather like himself. Hiding away a crave for anarchy, agnosticism, they would find their calling in the most diverse of ways. There is more than an empty shell who serve as nothing but vessels to the will of foolish conventions and ideals. Methods? Questionable, at best. Effects? Most certainly.
His social circle would not only put his talents to the test. It would compromise his view on what humanity holds, of how fragile it is... He may have been taught combat skills, he may know his way with a gun but in the end, Nils is just another life that can be just easily plucked away like all others. This terrifies him, yet in a strange way, leads him to adopt a more mature, perceptive outlook in life despite his age. Survival is a reality for him. He may look out for those he deems in important to him but in the end, the sad truth applies in any case : everyone is out for themselves.




And that disgusts him to no end.





Nils feels trapped to what he can accomplish, only finding pleasure in little to no things in his life. He does not have a fervent desire for change. Truth is, he is aware of his limitations, he accepts them as part of the process as an individual. No rush, no greed. But one cannot shake away a lingering feeling of apathy towards his existence. In a way, his awareness condemns him. And once again, he is fueled by hatred to fight what binds him to restlessnes. Sure, he has a stable relationship with his family, people he can count on, a particular set of skills that benefit him to an extent. If something, he feels wrong for craving for more control, more strength, so to say. But Nils is human, is he not? May he be able to find a way to satisfy his turbulent mind or will he become what he fears most?... Wel, only time will tell, right?

Name: Izumi


Picture:
236936dd6732cc3d0e6617617569762a.jpg



Description: Izumi, with shiny black hair and eyes to match, is two notches up from being skeletal thin. She’s of average height and despite being able to eat twice her size, Izumi’s weight fluctuated between a “healthy” weight (she would argue in her vibrant alto voice that there is no such thing) and underweight. Izumi keeps her hair cut short to the base of her neck; The only time she ever touches it is to move it from her eyes. Izumi’s pace is normally relaxed and stroll-through-the-park like, easier to find the perfect Kodak-moment that way. She’s not exactly clumsy, but it’s not rare for her to trip over a forgotten item or miss a step. However, in the pursuit of a perfect shot, Izumi can become something of an athlete.





Age: 17


Height: 5'5


Weight: 115


Hair Color: Black


Eye Color: Dark Brown


Body Type: Ectomorph


Voice Type: Alto


Personality:


Fitting the definition of her name, Izumi is full of spring-like energy. She is filled with a new fascination and joy for the ways of the world, but only after a hearty breakfast. She is usually described as an optimist and finds it hard to really see the bad in others, though she’s far from naive. Izumi knows that evil exists, but believes that everyone has the power to overcome it. If there’s one trait she shares with her brother, it’s curiosity. Izumi is the character in the horror movie to open the closet door, despite the questionable sounds coming from it. She has yet to learn her lesson from getting too close to dangerous things.


Because of her optimistic outlook on life, there isn’t much she doesn't like. Izumi is fueled by the things she has not discovered yet. Her dreams are often of the parts of the world she hasn't seen and the people she hopes to meet. Izumi’s life aspiration is not only to see every bit the world has to offer, but also to be a friend of everything that inhabits it. She hopes to inspire those around her, including her stubborn brother, to see cherish what surrounds them, rather than let life pass by.

  • Hiking
  • Shopping
  • Watching TV/Movies



Biography: Izumi, daughter of Aiko and Haruto Morimoto, is the younger sister to Taro. Her and her older brother were raised in a more rural area, surrounded by mountains and forests. The two siblings grew up very close to each other, Taro being the responsible, protective figure whenever it was just the two of them. Their parents, who traveled back and forth from their home in the mountains to their office jobs in the city, wanted to raise their children to be self-sufficient and separate from the busy, monotone life of the city. That being said, Taro and Izumi were homeschooled by their mother, who taught them English and a some French(Japanese being their first language) until their teenage years. During that time, a fascination and love for nature grew in Izumi and many nights, after a lesson, she would stand out on the back porch, watching the peacefulness of the earth.


For her 12th birthday, Taro gave her a small Kodak camera with the money he made selling his biscuits. From then on, Izumi took pictures of everything and everyone. Her room filled up with printed photos and even a few sketches. The camera was her most treasured item, and she still owns it to this day. When her parents finally sent her to highschool, she wasn’t immediately accepted, especially since all she did was take pictures of random students. It took a few visits to the principal for her to understand she would have to calm down with the picture-taking. She went on to start a photography club and become the president of said club.


When her brother graduated and moved off to college, Izumi begged her parents to let her follow him. At the time she was 16, She had already finished all her required classes and was on track to graduate early. Her parents took a few months to decide whether to let their only daughter follow Taro into the big city. In the end, they agreed and Izumi had her things packed faster than her parents had liked. After the fall semester, Izumi took the train to the city and surprised Taro at his dorm with her bags. Taro at first was angry at her and their parents for letting her come to the city alone, but he could never resist Izumi’s pleading eyes and allowed her to stay with him only until he had the money to send her back. The two have been living together ever since.





Name: Taro


Picture:
3fc4720ac8eff44409bfcfd980b30cd4.jpg



Description: Taro is tall and taut. His eyes are a sharp, calculating, dark brown. His resting face is serious and reserved from emotion. You couldn’t catch Taro in any clothing store for more than an hour, but he does hold some importance for his outward appearance. His dress consists of anything remotely in style; He usually just copies the mannequins in the windows or the celebrities plastered all over TV. His hair he allows only to grow slightly past his earlobe. On special occasions, Taro slicks his black locks back, but in normal day-to-day objectives, he lets it fall freely.





Age: 20


Height: 6'2


Weight: 126 lbs


Hair Color: Black


Eye Color: Brown


Body Type: Mesomorph


Voice Type: Baritone


Personality:


Taro is an intelligent and logical young man. He takes things pretty seriously and doesn’t accept much of anything less than superior from himself. Taro prides himself in his ability to look at situations objectively and keep his composure when provoked. It takes a lot to make him laugh, Izumi being the only exception, but that doesn’t mean Taro’s a gloomy guy. In fact, Taro describes his life as a content one and it’s not rare to see him smile or give a triumphant shout, especially when he’s accomplished something. Of course, in comparison to Izumi, Taro is more stoic and has a better understanding of the responsibilities as you grow older, but he does know how to have a little fun.


If you ask Taro’s friends to describe him in one word, they would take a while to think and then say enigma. Not that Taro is mysterious, but it’s hard to pinpoint his next move. You may expect him to be angry, but then he surprises you and is composed and patient. You may think he has one opinion on a subject, but in reality he feels an entirely different way. Taro and Izumi are both ambitious and driven in their own manner. While Izumi thinks of the big picture, Taro focuses on the details and the small steps it takes to reach his goals. His goal-oriented trait may make him seem insensitive and uncaring at first, but with time, many come to realize that Taro is anything but.

Biography: Taro was the first born of the two and with that came the responsibility of looking out for his younger sister, Izumi. His parents raised him to be self-sufficient and a go-getter of his dreams. They also instilled an importance in watching over Izumi and honoring the family values of self-reliance, individuality, and success. Taro especially looked up to her mother, who taught them until high school. It was from her that Taro got his love for cooking and learning everything he can about it. Being the first born child, and being known as the responsible one, Taro was allowed more privileges, like helping with the cooking and even harvesting some of their home grown crops. His mother taught him different recipes for desserts he could make with the fruits they grew.


By the age of 12, he had a nice business with the small amount of neighbors he had, selling them his homemade pies and other desserts. He often helped his mother in the garden, watering and plucking from their tiny farm in the backyard as Izumi pranced around and pointed out anything she saw that she liked. Sometimes, she would bring out a notepad and try to recreate what was in front of her and then shove her drawing in the face of Taro. It was then that Taro decided to buy Izumi a camera for her 12th birthday with the money he made from his fruit pie business. The sheer joy on her face when she opened her present filled Taro with such happiness that, from then on, he promised himself to wreak havoc on anyone who took that smile off her face.


When it was time for Taro to enter high school, he had some issues at first. Not used to the collectivism of a school setting, many kids saw Taro as the new kid who thought he was better than everyone. In the first few weeks, Taro had already been in enough fights to have him considered for expulsion. A quick chat with his parents and Taro had learned to block punches rather than send one back. Despite having somewhat good looks, at least enough to get him noticed by the “popular” crowd, Taro gravitated towards the “nerds” of the school. After meeting a few friends who could match his intelligence, Taro began to excel in school, becoming the president of the Honor Society and, by the time he graduated, being named valedictorian. Despite his accomplishments academically, Taro still felt a tug towards culinary arts and chose to pursue that in college. It felt weird living without his sister, but he thought he had gotten used to it. Until Izumi showed up at his dorm, bags in hand and cheeky smile on her face. He pretended to be angry and told Izumi that she could only stay until he had the money to send her back, scolding her for expecting the college to even be okay with her staying there. In truth, Taro was relieved and happy to have his sister around and after weeks and weeks, the two hadn’t mentioned anything about money, trains, or college dorm regulations.

Description: Standing at 5'7 he is tall as far as kenya standards go. Hoping to be in the olympics for gymnastics he has trained since the age of four (most start at three years old so he is a late bloomer of such) His kenyan diet and lifestyle has not only helped with his muscle build but also reduced his body fat to almost 5%.(gymnast fall a lot so good to have that extra cushion plus it really helps in fights which he gets into quite often) He has a tattoo on his right arm that he recently got here in Japan after going against some snobby "speed champion" at a local high school challenged him to a race paid him to keep his mouth shut. He has very muscular build benching 150% percent of his weight (210) Tho he eats alot he still has his gymnast build.


Age: 18


Height: 5'7


Weight: 159


Hair Color: sandy brown


Eye Color: brown


Body Type: gymnast build


Voice Type: bass





Personality: Arrogant is one way to put it. Of course when you are shipped off to another country just for being better than everyone else you tend to get arrogant. He also seems to have a grudge against everybody (with few exceptions) and enjoys watching others fail. He is relatively kind,or well he is polite to others but as soon as he gets comfortable shots fire. When pointing out flaws,unlike his temporary sister his main goal is to hurt you and he will add unnecessary insults. It's not very clear if he does this to hide his secrets and insecurities or if he is just an asshole.


He is a huge flirt to that side hasn't been sown as much since the japanese form of beauty is so different than what he is use to that he sees the women here as odd (but that hasn't stopped him from sleeping with a few). On the positive side Hamidi is a very determined young man. He doesn't quit easily nor will he allow himself to be dismissed so easily.He respects his
superiors,not necessarily his elders,as followed by his customs. Overall he is that typical rough around the edges but good deep down kind of person.

Biography:


He is an orphan….maybe. His mother may or may not actually be his mother it was never made clear. He lived with his grandmother as a young boy, then around seven years old his grandmother died. he stayed in the house for about two days crying and mumbling around not knowing what to do when a pretty young women came took him away. She didn't say anything, ahmad was playing in the dirt with a stick when he looked up there she was. “Let’s go” was her only words before turning and walking away. She wasn’t kenyan,she was ethiopian. Yet that didn’t matter to him nor was her being a prostitute and drug dealer. All that matter to Ahmad was that this was this was his new life now,and he would love every second of it.





School was hard for him he got into many fights with the other boys due to his pompous attitude. This was mainly to do to his mother's teaching. Ahamd has other brother and sisters when he asked his mother why he was the only one she cared for she replied “Because you are better,and mother only loves the best”. He refused to let other people tell him he was lesser because of who his mother was and what she did. Yet he became the black sheep of the town village. The older women gave him hateful looks and wouldn't let their sons play with him because his mother had ruined their marriage. it was around this time he knew he wanted to join the olympics.


He had done gymnastics before, since the age of four. He remembered when the center got built and the white people came and gave all the orphans training. But that was a while ago he was 13 now which meant he had to pay for the training now. One day he mother snatched him up by the wrist dragging him off without a single word except “let’s go” she took him to a local center where a man stood waiting for him. He never knew how she managed to pay for it tho he had an idea The thought made him sick to his stomach but he vowed to be the best he could be for her sacrifice. When him going to the olympics shifted from a dream to a possibility he was offered a chance to study abroad and now lives with his temporary sister Pallas.
