“Welcome to our inaugural team building exercise. Today we're doing icebreakers. Just fill out this little form, take your name tag, and give me your credit card information–ok that's enough of that.

I still do need you to talk about yourself. Uh. Here's a form, I guess."

    MAGIC

    "Alright. You've been asking me to explain how I'm supposed to dispense magic powers to boring NPs like you. Here's the summary:
    The beasts you'll be fighting are basically made of a type of energy manifesting to you guys as a more comprehensible form thanks to the power of years of evolution in the past. When they die, they release their energy and disperse to come back again some other day. My job is to harness that energy—done—and then coalesce it to give it to you guys. Easy. The energy should do the rest of the work. It'll change itself to become something that fits you, a part of you, and becomes what you use to transform and maybe also your weapon. I'm also like 70% sure it'll start talking at you, so when that happens, you're not going crazy, I promise."

    "As for the how the powers themselves work. I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. You guys are gonna suck for a bit. The powers I've given are fresh, undeveloped, raw canvases to grow alongside you, but right now that canvas is blank and boring. You want cool magic, right? Gotta earn it. Them's the breaks."
    CHARACTER GUIDELINES
    Creative freedom is getting restricted the tiniest bit. Here's two whole notes regarding what your character should be like for now.

    1. Please make a high school student aged character. This is a magical girl RP, and those are invariably given casts of that age. Why break the mold here? This is, of course, negotiable.
    2. Again, characters will start off with weak caterpillar powers. The abilities of characters will improve over the course of the story, so don't go overboard here.

    CHARACTER SHEET

    "Ok, other narrator, that's enough from you for now. Let's get that form filled out...why do I need this, you ask? Tax purposes."

    Full Name: "What to call you?"

    Age, DOB: "So we can harass you with 'Happy Birthday' and give you gifts."

    Gender: "What to call you?"

    Height, Weight: "I really want to pay those taxes."

    Appearance: "Make connecting you to the form you're filling in here easier."

    Personality: "What are you like, got any hidden depths?"

    Biography: "What tragedies can we fit in here?"

    Alter Ego Name: "Is your merch—I mean, transformational trinket already talking to you? Or have you thought up something of your own?"

    Alter Ego Description: "What can you do with your magics right now?"

    Alter Ego Strengths & Weaknesses: "What can we buff or hide with the power of friendship?"

    FULL NAME
    Yoshikawa Nanami
    AGE & BIRTH
    18 (August 11, 2003)
    NICKNAME
    Nana, Nami, Na-chan (Ken), Bunny/Usagi (Ken)
    GENDER & SEXUALITY
    Cis-female | Bisexual Demiromantic
    HEIGHT | WEIGHT
    4'11" (149 cm) | 127 lb (58 kg)
    Reputation
    The Darling of Amanogawa High School
    GENERAL DESCRIPTION
    Nanami is a beautiful young woman of shorter than average height, standing in at a mere 4'11, with a slender, well-defined body and soft curves. Although she does not look it, Nana is surprisingly muscular as a result of her training.
    She has smooth, fair skin and long black hair that spills over her shoulders and down past her waist. Occasionally she will adorn her hair with two red ribbons just above each shoulder. Her most notable feature, however, would have to be her eyes. Due to having been born with heterochromia, Nanami's right eye is a striking blue and her left is lavender.
    She has a very natural beauty so it is rare she chooses to wear full faces of makeup, only opting to wear it if she needs to cover up bruises or when she has to work. Unfortunately, the former is something she has to do all too often.

    Nanami is a very well-dressed individual, able to style just about anything and make it look nice. She has a lot of nice, casual clothes, but typically prefers to 'steal' shirts and hoodies from Ken and style those as dresses. She favours oversized clothing and because of their size difference, almost everything Ken owns is perfect for her.

    Notes: - Smells very sweet, typically like strawberries and vanilla, or something floral
    - Has a necklace with a ring hanging from it, Ken has a matching one. (Nana also wears her older brother's ring on her right ring finger.)
    - Usually has a bunny clip in her hair (gifted to her by Ken)
    - Wears a lavender, pastel pink, and baby blue bunny-shaped watch on her right wrist
    - Also on her right wrist is a charm bracelet with a sun and moon charm, will likely add more charms in the future
    - Has small scars littering her body from her many "falls", all in places she can easily cover with clothes
    - Her voice claim is Yui Ishikawa
    <3 ✨
    PERSONALITY
    Nanami is sweet, gentle, and easy to approach; she's the type of person others are drawn to. Although not difficult to talk to, she is very reserved and doesn't share much about herself save for pretty basic things, but does enjoy having more in-depth conversations with people so long as she doesn't have to share anything personal. She's a very insightful woman and has a lot of opinions, many of which she's happy to share, whether it's of her own volition or prompted by someone else.

    Nana is extremely protective and loving- she'll do everything in her power to take care of those closest to her and will always put others before herself, no matter the situation. She's someone who is easily trusted by others and isn't one to hold grudges (At least, that's what she lets people think). She very rarely talks to others about how she's feeling as the last thing she wishes to do is inconvenience them. However, she's always there for her friends and others if they need a shoulder to lean on.

    - intelligent, top of her class, straight-a student.
    - surprisingly street smart
    - hyper-aware of the way people act and of the environment around her; easily startled
    - tries her best to be nice to everyone (some days that is more difficult than others)
    - possessive of things that are hers, more specifically with her material possessions
    - extremely protective of her loved ones
    - she's fine. everything is fine. anything bad happens and she's perfectly fine. there's absolutely nothing wrong.
    - very guarded
    - does not trust easily
    - does everything in her power to hide her true feelings until she is alone and can let down the emotional walls she has skillfully built up
    - stubborn as a mule and will not back down without a fight, especially if it's for something she strongly believes in or is opposed to
    - she is very brave and has no qualms when it comes to doing anything, no matter how reckless, to protect her friends and loved ones
    - hardworking and determined, nanami tries her absolute best in everything she does. she doesn't want to disappoint anyone [which also happens to be one of her biggest fears].
    - has a habit of overworking herself. she keeps herself extremely busy, working until she physically cannot anymore. she refuses to take a break if she still has even the slightest bit of energy left- she often works herself past the point of exhaustion.
    - she's incredibly trustworthy
    - she gets lonely very easily

    Likes:
    + tea
    + chocolate milk
    + rainstorms
    + cuddling, physical affection (from very specific people)
    + oversized clothing
    + any and all animals
    + plushies
    + mythology
    + anything fantasy
    + horror movies / psychological thrillers
    +

    Dislikes:
    - thunder
    - yelling
    - alcohol (especially the smell of it)
    - cooking
    - food/eating
    - large crowds
    - crying
    - romantic comedies
    -

    Hobbies:
    ❥ anything involving the arts (drawing, painting, dancing, music, etc. very artistically and musically gifted)
    ❥ although proficient in a handful of instruments, she favours piano, guitar, violin, and the drums
    ❥ self-defense training
    ❥ volleyball - she's an absolute beast on the court and gives 100% every single time.

    HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
    Nanami has spent her entire life surviving by the skin of her teeth alongside her older brother Daiki, and if it weren't for Ken and his mother, Hanae, things may have turned out very differently.

    - In and out of the hospital frequently, when questioned about it her parents would lie and say it was because Nanami was a very sickly kid, very fragile and clumsy
    - managed to get a job pretty young, working at a regular café when she was a freshman in high school.
    - later quit that café job and started working at a maid café when she was 17 in order to support herself because although her parents still allowed her to live under their roof, they cut her off from essentially everything else. they only give her the absolute basic necessities and even then that's not usually enough.

    RELATIONSHIPS
    [PCS]
    Kawaguchi Ken (Kiki): Childhood best friend and the first half of the KawaKawa combo. They've known each other almost their entire lives and are basically inseparable; there are little to no barriers between them. They have no sense of personal space when it comes to the other and physical contact is a constant whenever they're together; they might as well be joined at the hip. She cares for him greatly and would do anything to ensure his happiness. She's extremely protective of him. Spends more time at his home than her own- She might as well live there.

    Her feelings go much deeper than that, her love for him unparalleled, but the way she sees it he'll only ever be able to see her as a best friend.

    Handa Daichi (Dai Chia Pet): They met through Ken and their relationship was a very "friend of my friend" type of vibe. One day, Ken had to leave early and left the two on their own. It was incredibly awkward at first, but they quickly found out they had some common interests and became friends. She cares for and trusts him.

    Amano Shiki: tbd (Daughter™)

    Fukushima Moura: They met because both are friends with Ken and get along well enough. She's fond of him.

    Akihito Ryoto: tbd

    Mitsurugi Tateyuki: She knows he used to have a crush on her, although he never said anything about it to her directly. While she does not share that kind of affection, she would have liked to befriend him, but that doesn't seem possible at this time. She still reaches out, however, and will approach to say hello and try to talk. It isn't much, but she wants him to know she's there for him should he ever need it.

    Iwa Machi: They are acquaintances. She doesn't know her very well but would like to get to know her more. She seems nice. (extent of their relationship currently undetermined)

    Ishioka Yuuka: tbd

    [NPCS]
    Yoshikawa Anzu and Kaito: Nanami's parents. Her mother, Anzu, is very distant and usually neglects her. Whereas her father, Kaito, is a violent drunk and a little too focused on Nana. Both use her as an outlet for their anger and frustrations, which is why she often escapes to Ken's house. That is her safe space.

    Yoshikawa Daiki: [FC: Yuta Okkotsu] Nanami's deceased older brother. Growing up they were very close and he always did his best to protect her from their parents. Unfortunately, in Nanami's freshman year of high school, Kaito was driving Daiki home and got into a car accident. Kaito survived, but Daiki died on the way to the hospital.

    Nana still hasn't fully recovered from this.

    Kawaguchi Hanae: Ken's mother. She gave Nanami a safe place to thrive and has been nothing short of amazing to her. She is the most trusted adult in Nana's life and someone she feels comfortable going to whenever she needs help. She has supported Nanami through some very difficult points in her life.

    The Kawaguchi Sisters [Sakura, Sawako, Manami, and Chiharu]: Ken's younger sisters. She cares for all of the girls very much and is incredibly protective of them. Has a habit of spoiling them even though she probably shouldn't. Looks after them when Ken and Hanae are busy.

    Daichi, personality-wise, is what you would expect from something close to what some would call a "Dudebro".

    Loud, crass and high on energy, Daichi is a guy that appreciates everything "manly": Wrestling, going to the gym, hating vegetables, tough attitude, and anything that oozes badassery among other things. His active personality can also make him come across as insensitive and or brutish, something that ultimately isn't really his intention, he just really lacks polite words in his vocabulary.

    Despite this, thanks to the relatively normal upbringing from the boy, he can also have a bit of a "straight man" personality at times, being the most rational person in the room, but this only tends to show when the people around him show their quirkier traits.

    Daichi is an overall pretty friendly person. However, he tends to stay safely among his already establshed friend circles, with little interest of making new friends. That said, making him to warm up to someone is hardly an achievement, and when that happens, he's willing to go to great lengths to make his friends happy. He's also happy to get physical with his friends that are okay with it, especially if they're up for some wrestling shenanigans.
    He's also naturally a big fan of most forms of media, be it games, anime, manga or action movies and shows. And ever since he was a child he's always dreamed of becoming a cool hero like those he'd see in media. Eventually this grew into a great degree of envy towards HPs, who were gifted with powers he could never even hope to obtain.

    Daichi is also quite fond of gardening, surprisingly, a hobby he developed by spending a lot of time with his dear aunt, and even keeps a small garden of his own in her backyard, however, since such a thing would tarnish the manly image he's developed over the years, he keeps this as a secret.
    HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
    A painfully generic upbringing, that is the unfortunate past of the big dreamer known as Handa Daichi.

    Daichi was the sole child of Mr. and Mrs. Handa, the former a humble and mild mannered white collar worker with a passion for fishing, and the latter a happy and dedicated housewife with a surprisingly hobby of knitting and selling sweaters and accessories, the both forming a pretty standard, middle class household. The boy, however, was considerably more of an outlier compared to his parents, with cute hair whose color they have no idea where he got it from, a cute face and a noticeably loud and high-energy personality, always running around and climbing anywhere he could (leading to child very prone to accidents).

    He had always taken an interest in things such as martial arts, sports, action cartoons and Tokusatsu, constantly talking about wanting to be a hero as a child, believing that he, one day, could become one of those "HPs" people would talk about on television all the time. A lot of the boys in his school had a different opinion of him, often comparing Daichi to a girl because of his looks, the boy took a great resentment towards the mocking, deciding to instead go harder on his preferences that one would see as manly.

    If there is one thing that could be considered noteworthy about Diachi's parents, it's the fact that they love each other to a sickening degree, and thus always look for excuses to go on romantic vacations between the two of them. Making Daichi go and stay over with his father's sister everytime it happened, but Daichi never really minded this, as by spending time with his aunt is how the boy discovered a new passion of him: Gardening. However, he's yet to tell a single soul about it, as he doesn't want to be mocked by his classmates and friends like back in the day for having such a feminine and delicate hobby.

    Now, Daichi is in his last year of highschool, and having been transfered from Class B to Class A in his third year, he's made new friendships and now looks forward to whatever situation they get into next.
    RELATIONSHIPS

    Kawaguchi Ken: Bro! He's a bit odd but very cool!

    Yoshikawa Nanami: She's nice! (extent of their friendship currently undetermined)

    Arasaka Kyoko: I see her at the boxing club!

    Yuuka: That creep won't get off Bro's back!

    Masao: That Gyaru tomboy sure is a handful!

    Watanabe Junko: Who???

    Shi(-chan), Iki(-chan)

    Cis-Female, She/Her
    HEIGHT | WEIGHT
    5'00" (152.4 cm) | 85 lb (38.6 kg)

    Mean Art Girl
    GENERAL DESCRIPTION
    Standing at a shorter than average height and at a lower than reccomended weight, Shiki has short, fluffy hair, a cross between a light wine-red and pink. Her eyes are a fuschia-colored, and they are a little bit droopy. She has pale skin and a beauty mark underneath her left eye.
    Casually, she wears a pale red shirt under a dark fuschia jacket with some white fluff. She also wears a dark red-wine colored skirt and pale pink tights, as well as pink mary janes. She also accesorizes with a very dark pink hair clip.
    Shiki can almost always be found carrying around a pink cat plush with green button eyes - her name is Mew and Shiki stitched her together. Mew is her comfort item - she only allows those she is very close with to touch or hold her.
    PERSONALITY
    On the surface level, Shiki has a bitter, sarcastic shell that was formed as a defense mechanism. For everything rude she says, she apologizes in her head - it's because she isn't good enough to be associated with others. Even if she wants to pull someone close, to hold and be held in the arms of friendship, she needs to prove her worth so that she can break free of her shell like a butterfly emerging from it's cocoon, instead of it shattering and leaving the mess of her emotions in it's wake.
    ...Unfortunately that shell is very fragile. There are times she breaks down when she thinks she's alone, and if one were to compliment or flirt with her, she would simply deny it softly with things like that's not true,', 'you shouldn't lie like that', 'this isn't funny', and 'go say it to someone who deserves that', among other things. If one were to show interest in her art, she'd happily explain it.
    On the inside, she's shy and anxious, easily startled and self-conscious. She has little to no confidence in herself, believing herself to be unworthy of friendship and love, despite desperately wanting those things. She can also be innocent, especially when it comes to human relations. But there's one thing for certain: she's passionate about her art and wishes she was able to smile more.
    HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
    From a young age, Shiki has been gifted in the arts like both of her parents - she was a dancer for a while and she was that girl who got solos in choir. However, despite her talent, she's very shy and insecure. Her mother is an actress and her father is a musician, and there's always been some sort of pressure for her to follow in their footsteps and join the entertainment industry.
    Her talents didn't stop there, and her ideal future wasn't in the entertainment industry. She liked singing, liked dancing, and many of her idols were popular singers or dancers, but it wasn't her dream. Instead, she began to focus on creating - painting, pottery, fashion... The teachers always loved her work, in passing classmates would tell her that she's amazing, but those were not the people she wanted approval from.
    The pressure from her parents increased - what she created wasn't good enough, she just needed to focus on the entertainment industry. It was never enough for them, never, never never...! She started to believe it - the teachers were lying, her classmates were lying, her parents were right. And thus, she retreated into a bitter shell to defend herself.
    RELATIONSHIPS
    Shiki has a very strained relationship with both her parents, as well as minimal interaction her peers. She actively fears most of her classmates, and just wants them to leave her alone.

    ??? Who is that??
    GENERAL DESCRIPTION
    She is someone who has a boring name, common appearance, is average in brains and body and has no single quality to stand out. She blends into the background, so other people tend to lose sight of her. She has an uninteresting black bob, uninteresting black eyes, uninteresting pale skin, and an uninteresting smile. Completely and utterly... mediocre. Even the clothes she wears are... boring.
    PERSONALITY
    Does she even have one? She is so completely average, it's hard to say. One thing for sure, though, is that she has potential to become something notable.
    HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
    Raised in the world's most average nuclear family, Junko is unremarkable in every way including her history. She's the firstborn child of two, the elder sister of a more noticeable little brother. Her parents have boring jobs and she gets boring grades that they're content with. Perhaps the most interesting fact about her is that she's in the photography club... but that's rather unremarkable in itself.
    RELATIONSHIPS
    No one of importance.

    - The Rising Sun of Amanogawa
    - Failed Fabled Flirt
    - Big bro
    - Former Ace of Amanogawa baseball team
    GENERAL DESCRIPTION
    Ken is a tall, athletic young man with brown hair and honey-colored eyes. He sports a pair of rectangular sunglasses that do a great job of helping see things. Despite no longer being an active member of the baseball team, he still maintains a muscular form.
    PERSONALITY
    Energetic and easygoing, Ken doesn't take himself too seriously. He likes to laugh and have fun, preferring to have a good time instead of moping around. He tries to get the people around him to follow suit, dragging them into his pace.

    Having a mischievous side to him, he likes to engage in some friendly teasing with his buddies. He enjoys seeing their reactions, and retaliation is always welcome. There are times when his tongue gets a bit sharper and his words become more mean-spirited, but that's only reserved for people who really manage to get on his nerves.

    Some people may say Ken can have too much energy at times, especially when it comes to his romantic pursuits. A notorious flirt, he'll make a pass at almost any woman, far too confident in his own abilities. Completely shameless, he'll go along with a person's whims just to have a slightly better shot at love, and he'll do it with pride. Even if he's shot down, he'll quickly recover from rejection and try again, as it is impossible to bruise his iron ego. However, if someone makes a genuine request for him to stop, he takes it seriously and backs off.

    Due to his usual antics, Ken tends to give the impression that he is a fool. While that is not...entirely untrue, he isn't really dumb. His grades are above average, but he doesn't have an extraordinary talent for hitting the books. Unless it has to do with plants, animals, or some niche subject he's really into, he's not the guy to come to with complex questions or equations. He more so relies on emotional intelligence and common sense to get by. Although, that sometimes goes out the window when he gets too caught him in something ridiculous.

    Despite some of his more wild tendencies, Ken would describe himself as more of a lover than a fighter. He's willing and sometimes eager to get physical if a situation demands it, but he generally likes to keep things peaceful. He can be a decent mediator, having plenty of experience looking after people and keeping things orderly.

    As an older brother, he's always keeping an eye on how people are feeling and making sure they're okay. When it comes to his friends and family, he'll try to help them with their problems any way he can. He likes being a source of support and being able to make others smile.

    He spoils his loved ones quite a bit, but he likes to be spoiled just as much. Although, if you give him an inch, he'll take a mile. Being the one on the receiving end is pretty nice once in a while, so he likes to indulge in the feeling.

    His relationships are the most important thing in his life. He is very protective of them, and he measures his success by how happy they are. While he'd never share it with anyone, he sometimes feels an enormous amount of pressure to make sure his family never goes through hardship again. He's built his sense of self-worth on unrealistic expectations, and he feels like a failure when his efforts aren't enough to keep his loved ones smiling. He's chained to a sense of responsibility.

    After his father abandoned him and the rest of his family, he developed a hatred for those who cast aside their responsibilities. It's the foundation of his passion, and he can't stand to see people do anything similar. There are exceptions for situations that aren't too serious, but ones that remind him of his father make his blood boil. He despises terrible parents, and mistreatment of women and children is a surefire way to set him off. It hits too close to home, awakening a very rarely seen aggressive, angry side of him.

    Likes: Cooking, baseball
    HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
    Ken had a very lively childhood. With a caring mother, four rowdy little sisters, and a precious childhood friend next door, his days were bright and full of laughter. His only complaint was that his father was rarely home, always too busy with his job. However, he understood that the man was working hard to support their large family. Thankfully, the love from the other important people in his life was enough to fill the void.

    Aside from his family, the other great love of Ken's life was baseball. Even as a kid, he displayed great talent and passion for the game, making a name for himself in his prefecture's little league matches. He had big dreams of becoming the world's greatest star athlete and put in as much work as he could to make that goal a reality. The encouragement from his loved ones pushed him forward, and he believed that if he could succeed enough, he'd even earn praise and approval from his distant father. Unfortunately, that aspiration was quickly snuffed out.

    In Ken's last year of primary school, his father's infidelity was finally discovered. The man's dedication to his job was nothing more than a lie meant to cover his attachment to another woman, and when the truth finally came out, he didn't hesitate to abandon everything for her. Ken's parents divorced, leaving the family with deep wounds.

    Following the divorce, Ken's family endured several hardships. Financial issues were the biggest problem. With one less source of income and several mouths to feed, they struggled to maintain their previous lifestyle. Ken hated his father for putting them in that position, but he also cursed himself for being unable to do anything about it.

    As a child, there wasn't much he could do to help his family. He could try to cheer them up and look after his sisters more often, but it wasn't enough. Even when he tried to quit baseball to free up more time and money, his mother stopped him, not wanting him to give up something he was passionate about. While he appreciated how much she cared, it only made him feel like a burden. He was too young to help in a meaningful way, and it hurt.

    After a long time of feeling lost and powerless, Ken eventually found what he believed to be the key to his family's happiness. Inspired by the smiling, happy people he saw in picture books and movies, he decided that he wanted to move all of his loved ones to a big farm in the countryside. By doing that, they could distance themselves from their problems and carve out a place in the world where only good things existed. It was a silly, childish thought, but he was determined to make his new dream a reality. Even as he grew older, that passion never wavered.

    Just like his mother wanted, Ken continued to play baseball after he entered middle school. He remained as passionate as ever, but his old desire to break into the big leagues had already been replaced. Committed to his new dream, he dedicated more time to his studies. Whenever he wasn't looking after his sisters or participating in club activities, he had his face buried in a book.

    After making it into Amanogawa High School, Ken immediately joined the baseball team and earned the self-proclaimed title of the school's "Rising Sun". He made a big splash, landing a spot on the first string in his freshman year as the team's Ace. Putting on a very strong performance, he and the other boys went on to secure a massive victory at the Spring Kōshien. Spirits were high following the achievement, making it all the more surprising when Ken quit the team shortly after.

    Once he turned fifteen and was legally allowed to work, Ken quit all extracurricular activities and took up part-time jobs. He'd been planning it for a long time, wanting to save up money and dedicate himself to his studies. He just wanted to go out with a bang before leaving baseball for good.

    Moving up to his third year of high school, Ken was still dedicated to his dream, planning to enroll in college to study agriculture. With most of his time taken up by family, work, and preparations for entrance exams, he didn't have a lot of freedom as before, but he had no complaints. As long as he could make the important people in his life happy, he was satisfied.

    He expected the days leading up to graduation to be uneventful, but an unexpected tremor shook up his entire life. One day, Ken had a fateful encounter he initially believed to be a hallucination fueled by a lack of sleep. A talking pink fuzzball appeared before him with an offer, mentioning a contract and the power he could obtain. Ken quickly declined. He was wary of the incomprehensible creature and still caught up in his disbelief, so he wrote it off as an insane daydream. However, the card the fluffy thing gave him as a parting gift was a constant reminder that truth was stranger than fiction.

    For a while after his meeting with the strange beast, Ken's life continued as normal, and he slowly forgot about the encounter altogether, becoming more convinced by his own denial. Unfortunately, he received a terrible reminder when he encountered another creature while escorting one of his sisters home. Unlike the cute ball of fluff he'd met before, the demon they came across on that night only brought danger.

    Powerless and afraid of losing someone he cared about, Ken used the card he'd been given to summon the individual who once promised him strength. That's when he formed his contract with Ritsu. Without understanding anything, he acted on instinct, repeating one word that echoed in his mind. Burn.

    After managing to defeat the evil spirit, Ken awoke the next morning to discover that his sister remembered nothing of their shared near-death experience. Once again, he was tempted to lie to himself and believe it was all just a dream. However, the signs around him were impossible to ignore, especially the being he was now contracted to.

    Ken now has no idea what to expect with the recent developments. He wants to focus on his dream and live the same life as before, but it seems like the goal will be even harder to reach. Despite the uncertainty, he has no regrets. If he was able to protect his family because of the contract, then accepting it was the right choice. He can only hope that it won't destroy the path he's tried to walk so far.

    RELATIONSHIPS
    Yoshikawa, Nanami (Na-chan, Bunny/Usagi): Childhood friend and other half of the KawaKawa Combo. The two of them have known each other almost their entire lives and are extremely close. There are basically no barriers between them, amd physical contact is a constant. He cares for her greatly, even including her in his big plan for the farm. He is very protective of her and always tries to keep a frown from appearing on her face.

    There are also some more...complicated feelings.

    Hasegawa, Masao (SoSo): Another student Ken has known for a long time. The two met as kids and were eventually able to bond over a shared love of baseball. They had a friendly rivalry, and Ken often liked to tease her while encouraging her to do her best. They both played for Amanogawa as first-years before Ken quit the team.

    Ken is aware of her family situation, and it angers him greatly. When possible, he tries to keep an eye on her. While he may not longer be a teammate of hers, SoSo will always have his support as a friend.

    Mitsurugi, Tateyuki (TeTe): A fellow athlete and rival. Ken saw him as a good friend and loved having someone around who could push him to do better. However, after Ken quit the baseball team and he became busier, things started to fizzle out. After Tateyuki began to close himself off from other people, their friendship was completely lost.

    Ken still sees Tateyuki as a friend and tries to check up on him, but repairing that bridge has been very difficult. He worries about him a great deal.

    Handa, Daichi (ChiChi): A fairly recent friend he made at the start of senior year. He loves Daichi's energy and is always down for some friendly wrestling when he's got the time. It's nice having someone around he can get physical with. They also share an interest in masked heroes who fight for justice.

    Fukushima, Moura (MoMo): A good friend and precious underclassman. Because they are in different years, Ken likes to drag Moura into the senior group whenever there's a chance. He likes to be dramatic around him, often talking about "passing the torch to the next generation". He's leaving Amanogawa in Momo's capable hands after graduation.

    Yamanouchi, Suzume (MeMe): Compared to the relationship he has with his other friends, this one is definitely unique. The two of them often bicker, engaging in banter on a daily basis. It's strange, but Ken enjoys it. If MeMe doesn't approach on her own start something, Ken will often go out of his way to find her. It's more boring when she isn't around.

    Ken occasionally spends time running through imaginary scenarios in his head so he can prepare the perfect comebacks for their daily ritual. Unfortunately, the MeMe in his head isn't as skillful as the real version, so the mental training isn't as effective as he'd like it to be. Experience with his sisters has also conditioned him to clap back with very childish remarks instead of something more witty.

    Ishioka, Yuuka (YuYu): What started as a failed attempt at flirting eventually turned into a nice friendship. He likes her enthusiasm and the energy her presence brings to a room. Unfortunately, he is completely blind to her affections and the concerning behavior that accompanies them.

    Amano, Shiki (ShiShi): Ken wants to help Shiki be more confident in herself and accept the potential friendships around her. He's impressed by her artistic abilities and believes talent like that deserves praise.

    Kawaguchi Hanae (HaHa): Ken's mother. The central figure in his life. He tries to fill in for her as best as he can by taking care of household chores and looking after his sisters. She often comes home exhausted from work, so he tries to let her relax whenever possible.

    Kawaguchi, Sakura (RaRa): Ken's biggest little sister. Has recently started a part-time job of her own.

    Kawaguchi Sawako (SaSa): The second oldest daughter of the Kawaguchi clan. Just look at her.

    Kawaguchi Nanami (MiMi): The third-born daughter who definitely thinks her brother is very cool

    Kawaguchi Chiharu (RuRu): The youngest member of the Kawaguchi family. For a while, she referred to Ken as "Mama".

    The Ultimate Second String
    The Graceful Lady Knight
    GENERAL DESCRIPTION
    Masao is a trans woman standing at 6'0. Despite having naturally dark hair and fair skin the woman has widely embraced the Gyaru style in an attempt to seem more feminine. Even so, she hasn't been able to make the switch to more feminine clothing now that she can, instead wearing the male uniform and typically still favoring masculine clothing unless in the comfort of her own home. However, she's been taken with makeup and face paints taking any opportunity to show off her skills either for herself or her friends.
    PERSONALITY
    Masao’s a woman who’s very presence is noticeable even when she doesn’t speak. She’s bolsterous, brash, and even sometimes considered an eyeswore with her complete lack of style. With determination she chases a live that’s as fulfilling and fun as can be. Her mind runs a million miles an hour causing her she takes leaps and laps around a conversation not always making the most sense to the casual observer or someone with the joy of conversing with her.

    Despite her general lack of conversation skills and social graces its very easy for someone to learn of how she feel about them as she wears her emotions right on her sleeve. She’s a very expressive and typically honest individual. Still there’s no need to fear being on her bad side as there’s been no definitive proof that it exists for the majority of people who have gone looking for it. Though her own curiosity and passion has sure got her on the bad side of others.

    Masao’s patience and willingness to compromise have made it seem in the past as though she’s quite gullible. However, this is nothing more than a cause of her need to stay in line and avoid a rebellious path due to the circumstances of her past. In reality she very much keeps the score, and has used her position as class rep for 3-C to do indirect retaliations by giving the grunt work to those who have attempted to get over before. Despite the fact that she’s usually a peaceful woman she jumps to the defense of anyone she can though her efforts at mediation could really use some work.
    HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
    The Hasegawa family is a proud and corrupt name to carry that comes with miles of expectations from birth. Public opinion was to be meticulously crafted to suit the family of politicians. This is why when it came to Masao, her name began to become synonymous with the term “black sheep”. Even from a young age it became clear Masao was not going to be the ideal eldest son they wished from her.

    Yet they had no other options at the moment so they put their all into attempting to shape her into their ideal son. They even went as far as to introduce Masao to the first born child of the Ryoto, a well known criminal family they had ties to. Masao was expected to befriend and become accustome to Akihiko to keep the Hasegawas on the payroll of the family. Luckily this was one task Masao was easily up for.

    Even so their expectations only continued to grow as things began to be thrown on her plate more and more in order for her “growth”. Instead of playing with dolls or getting to play dress up the focus was on studies, maintaining their sport of choice, and enrollment into Muay Thai. Each meant to knock her out of her “soft nature.”

    Through all this she found herself becoming lost and beaten down by the weight of it all. Yet when her younger brother was born she began to feel some of that weight lift ever so slightly. Now she had to make sure to look out for Manabu as well. A task she held with both pride and trepidation knowing any expectation she couldn’t meet would be slapped on him.

    Which is why Masao began to step up with frustration building with every passing day. Each day became more and more unhappy as she got closer to their “ideal son”. It was one of these days that led her to approaching Ken who was on the same baseball team and ask just why he was so happy with it all. Before long the two were friends, close enough to know each other’s familial situations and provide support for one another.

    She may never admit it but she found herself looking up to Ken hoping to be as good a sibling as he was. Eventually, Masao began to cherish her little siblings doing her best to support Manabu and the newly-born Momoka but even this wasn’t enough to hold back the sadness building. A sadness that was noticed by the grandparents. After an ongoing argument left a scar on the family it was decided that Masao was to leave the Hasegawa household and be under the care of her grandparents provided that she maintained an expected public image of a Hasegawa.

    Once Masao was in the care of her grandparents she came into a considerable increase in the amount of freedom. Life was easier but it was still not full. She was heavily encouraged to not contact her siblings, and while she tried to follow that eventually at first she would do everything in her power to keep them close. However, after an incident in Manabu’s school was blamed on Masao’s fostering of the behavior contact was broken and withheld between the siblings. Nowadays both of her younger siblings often regard her with hostility having been fed lie after lie from their parents.

    But there was little she could do about it, so instead, she put her all into her craft. Her studies never faulted, and she continued to excel as a pitcher even if Ken was outpacing her and making the first string. She’d even made a best friend for her efforts as she supported Yuuka’s passion to become an even better manager. She even supported Yuuka’s crush thinking it was cute to see her putting her all for the one she liked.

    Freshman year seemed to fly by with a vengeance, and when the sophomore year came by Masao was “left” the team as Ken and Yuuka resigned. Seeing things beginning to change once more into shaky ground and emboldened by watching Yuuka follow wants she wants with a heavy heart Masao left the team behind as well. For once she was going to do what she wanted… and thus she began her transitioning.

    A scruffy-looking young man. His hair is barely even considered unkempt- the fact that he even bothers to tie it up into a ponytail is a miracle. With glowering amber eyes, his glare is said to be able to fell most of his assailants before they can even raise their fists at him. He sports a stubble across his chin that he barely keeps in check.
    PERSONALITY
    Angry, frustrated, and vengeful.

    He used to be a nice kid. That was the sentiment most have of Tateyuki Mitsurugi. Once a confident and competitive go-getter, Tateyuki was known to have rallied a fair bit of his peers to improve themselves as students and members of their clubs. He believed in the best of his peers and wanted them to strive for better. An independent man, he would often attempt to handle all of his problems by himself. It was, perhaps, his biggest flaw- he would willingly help others, but would not accept help himself. Perhaps, this confidence and need to undertake every task on his own volition was what resulted in his descent to all-consuming anger and hatred.

    After his mother's passing, Tateyuki's demeanour changed for the worse. His focus shifted to gaining strength and power, and in his pursuit, he began to push everyone he knew away from him. Bitter resentment consumed his heart, and he began to see all the ways that others were better than him. And so, he dedicated all of his energy to becoming stronger. No one can defeat him. No one must defeat him.

    In his solitude, he began to develop a violent streak, picking fights with members of other schools and other delinquents. Sometimes, the fights came to him, and he would accept the challenge readily.

    Under all that seething vitriol, however, perhaps some remnant of the young man he used to be stayed behind. Though rude and unnecessarily toxic, he is still capable of some compassion and honor.
    HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
    Tateyuki Mitsurugi was born to a middle-class family. His father was a public prosecutor, and his mother was a stay at home wife. There is nothing much to say about his childhood- he had a good one. His parents loved him as much as they could, and he, in turn, loved them as much as he could.

    He wasn't a bad student– far from it. He aspired to become a defense attorney, if one could believe that, and had aimed for a prestigious law school at a young age. He was active in sports, and picked up kendo in middle school, and showed some interest in other katas outside of kendo. By the time he entered Amanogawa High, his academics and his knowledge of the sword both earned him the (rather embarassing) title of Amanogawa Samurai. Though he would rather not hold on to such an extravagant title, his further achievements in interschool competitions and his rise to President of Amanogawa Kendo Club only cemented it. Tateyuki was one of the many stars of Amanogawa, and it seemed as if he would make it.

    Then, his mother died. They would not let him see her body. The official cause of death was either one of those newly-introduced yokai or the act of a HP. She had been out to buy a gift for him, and on her way back, she had been accosted by either of the aforementioned suspects. There was nothing the police could do, and investigations led to a dead end. There was nothing he could do. Although his father attempted to console his son, telling him that none of it was his fault, Tateyuki would not have it. He should have protected her. He should have been there. He should have been strong enough. He should have–

    His mother's death took a heavy toll on the boy's mental health. Eventually, it seeped into his daily life. He pushed away all of his friends, and he put in his letter of resignation for the club. After that, he started disappearing from classes, lurking around the back of the gym to train himself. There was no way he could ever become as strong as a HP, but he had to try. He had to become better. He had to attain that power to crush the evils of the world. No matter what it took, no matter what it needed, he had to. He had to. His fierce dedication and his resignation from the Kendo club morphed his unofficial title into a bastardisation of his old one: the Amanogawa Ronin.
    RELATIONSHIPS

    Ken Kawaguchi: An ex-friend whom he had a friendly competitive nature with. Their relationship has fallen to the wayside a little after Ken quit the baseball team, and busied himself with part-time work. After Tateyuki's own tragedies, their relationship completely fell apart after that.

    Masao Hasegawa: Another friend whom he had friendly competitions with. He used to envy her for her natural physique, but that has since been replaced by an intense hatred for HPs and the need for vengeance. Before he was blinded by his pursuits, he used to think she was actually quite attractive, but never really said anything to that sentiment.

    Yuuka Ishioka: Coached her when they were young teenagers before. He wanted her to be more ambitious, and generally thinks she has potential for more. Their relationship has dissipated across the years, and he has since left her alone for the most part.

    Suzume Yamanouchi: A thorn in his side, and a bother. He didn't like her very much, but at least tolerated her. Nowadays, his irritation for her is as clear as the furrows in his brows, but her persistent pestering has at least kept her status as 'tolerated'.

    Nanami Yoshikawa: Had a crush on her, but always looked on from the sidelines instead of actually saying anything about it. Nowadays, his focus is elsewhere, and he has moved on.

    Handa Daichi: A fellow friend of athletic persuasion. Yet another one of those whom he would regularly challenge to pursuits of athleticities. Just as the others, he has since dropped out of his radar.

    The cheerleader of class 3-C
    GENERAL DESCRIPTION
    Yuuka has straight, warm-hued brown hair that reaches just past her shoulders; which she ties up in half-up twin-tails with pink ribbons during the day. Her eyes are a dark lilac shade—cute when she’s excited or happy, but terrifying when she’s feeling any negative emotion. Her skin is fair and smooth, and she’s often compared to a marshmallow with her chubby cheeks.

    While she sports the girls uniform at school, she likes wearing girly clothes in her free time. She defaults to floral skirts and soft tops, but she loves wearing cute dresses on special occasions. She wears simple blush and mascara, always aiming for the ‘no-makeup’ look.
    PERSONALITY
    To her peers, Yuuka is a textbook optimist. A shy girl who came out of her shell during freshman year, and has been dubbed the ‘3-C cheerleader’ ever since due to her happy countenance. She’s a bit air-headed, but nobody can hate Yuuka. She’s the best!

    However, underneath her bubbly appearance lies an envious and violent storm. Her obsession with a boy in her grade is the star at the center of her daily orbit. All she wants is to be with him forever, and is willing to get rid of anything—or anyone—in the way. Luckily, she’s too dense to actually succeed, and her attempts to sabotage those close to him turn out more comical than malicious. Still, the storm lies in wait..

    Drunkard
    GENERAL DESCRIPTION
    Tetsuya ruins his tall height with a terrible slouch, appearing much shorter than he actually is. His gold-green eyes have a lazy lid over them, and his dirty blond hair is wrapped into a messy ponytail. He is often seen with a baja hoodie, sweatpants, and a terrible sandal with socks combination. A messenger bag is always slung over his shoulder.
    PERSONALITY
    Tetsuya's defining characteristic is his crippling alcoholism, which causes him to act almost sedated and chill most of the time. When sober, Tetsuya has a more harsh and irritable composure. Surprisingly, Tetsuya acts relatively normal compared to others under the influence, capable of formulating arguments and discussion. He is also surprisingly dedicated and determined, willing to learn skills in order to feed his addiction.

    Tetsuya is quite passionate about his guitar playing hobby, but other than that, it is rare to see him put in any sort of conscious, strong effort into things. Instead, he likes to focus on making gradual bits of effort. He's hardened to become more utilitarian and often does not account for emotions in his decisions.
    HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
    Tetsuya lived an unfortunate life with deadbeat parents and intense bullying in his later middle school years. His parents left him along with his younger brother to fend for themselves, which caused Tetsuya to feel like he couldn't rely on others.

    In middle school, bullies flocked to abuse Tetsuya. In the middle of giving a speech during class, Tetsuya had an unfortunate... wardrobe failure, although years later, come late middle school, the bullies quite literally forgot how this incident started their bullying spree. Finally, after being fed up with the bullying incidents tainting his middle school experience, Tetsuya acquired a trench shovel that he hid in his backpack, which he beat the bullies with. After that event, nobody dared to hurt Tetsuya, and Tetsuya kept his shovel in his backpack throughout high school just in case any bullies tried to use him as a target.

    During this time though, Tetsuya developed a dependency on alcohol in order to get through life, finding the lightheaded feeling that came with it as a good way to get through his tough life. However, limited in the quantity of alcohol that he could access, Tetsuya instead turned to brewing his own beer and making his own alcohol in his house. Unable to kill his dependency in high school and frustrated by the low quality of alcohol, dedicated his time to researching and experimenting with brewing, to the point where Tetsuya developed a repitoire of brewing skills that would provide him with an instant job come graduation... as long as his braincells were still intact.

    His life seems to be turning a new leaf. Tetsuya has great friends in high school, and his mother was having a larger part of their family, making Tetsuya finally feel capable of letting go from the burdens of life for once.
    RELATIONSHIPS
    Kawaguchi Ken - Fellow coworkers at the 24/7. Ken often has to cover up for Tetsuya's clumsy mistakes and has to put him back on the right track in order not to get fired.

    Ishioka Yuuka: Ishioka-san's obsession of Ken slips right by Tetsuya, and although he is aware of it, he really couldn't give a crap. Even if Ishioka-san is indignant about Tetsuya's presence.

    Mitsurugi Tateyuki: Due to a misunderstanding stemming from Mitsurugi-san's reputation and Tetsuya's nervousness around tough looking guys, Tetsuya pulled out his shovel and caused a fight between the two of them. Tetsuya doesn't hold any grudges against Mitsurugi-san, although he does feel really awkward around him.

    Hasegawa Masao: Masao and Tetsuya were middle school friends. They had a rocky start due to Masao misinterpreting the shovel incident, but they've become closer friends once they got to high school.

    KEMARI
    KEMARI UETSUGI
    FULL NAME (Last, First)
    Uetsugi, Kemari
    AGE & BIRTH
    18 (August 20th, xxxx)
    NICKNAME
    "Kemari does not like nicknames."
    GENDER
    Cis Female
    HEIGHT | WEIGHT
    5'3" (160 cm) | 100 lb (45 kg)
    Reputation
    Speaks in the third person; Soft-spoken but straightforward; Walks on the balls of her feet (aka. toe walking)
    GENERAL DESCRIPTION
    Kemari Uetsugi is a pale, lissome girl, somewhat bony, and seemingly delicate. Her white hair holds silver undertones, naturally curly but thick and weighed down by length so that the curls have become less prominent. Straight bangs curtain her face, providing glimpses of wide, glacier-blue hues beneath thick lashes.

    Smiles come naturally to most, but Kemari's lips are seldom graced by such a trace of emotion.

    She walks lightly, footsteps faint, with her hands cupped behind her back, with her spine straight, and with her chin high. Elegant and graceful when she moves, even in clumsiness; she falls like a feather and lands like a petal on still waters. Kemari does not stand out amid a crowd, for her presence is subtle like first-fallen flakes of snow.

    Her left ear is pierced five times--- five black diamond studs ---as she's a fan of small accessories like light necklaces and bracelets, but not ones that make a lot of noise and draw attention.
    PERSONALITY
    Kemari's personality is white ink to paper and seemingly nothing written. She is the author's portrait overlooked on the novel's backside, and the microphone unplugged when the poet begins their reading to a snoring crowd.

    Always something to say, but too often unheard by the quietness of her voice, which is modulated and silvery. Articulate and refined, the words fall from her tongue as if rehearsed, not a stutter, but her use of poetry in conversation can leave one wanting for translation.

    She is honest and opinionated but not obstinate. She craves affection but is not affectionate; an addict for the butterflies born of head-pats and arms wrapped tight around her. However, just as honesty is a valuable quality, it is a double-edged sword in the hands of one oblivious to the emotional effect words can have on others. As such, it is often Kemari finds herself in the face of one's offense before their affection as they sing the woes of their frail ego and demand she watch her tongue, think before she speaks, and have more awareness!

    Misunderstood, labeled a snob. She is kind of heart, truly. Kemari loves being in the presence of people, being spoken to and acknowledged, but not over-acknowledged.
    HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY
    Her story.

    Kemari's story is the gradual diminishing of beaming smiles so bright the sun looks away. A picture of three, then two, then one; first, her mother gone, swept away by an illness the doctors said would take her and, despite the promises born of denial, did.

    Her story is father and daughter against the world, never knowing that her father battled something greater than she could understand. Her mother had been the rock; her father, the stack of papers that scattered in the wind when the rock was plucked away. Try as she might, Kemari could not recover every page in her efforts to pick them up, stack them together again, and serve as the rock to keep them grounded, for the winds were too strong and she was only a pebble.

    Her story is the slow conditioning that she might wake to an empty house, no water, no electricity, and a note on the door what's deadbolt was left unlocked in her father's leaving. The knowing he cared, and that he loved her, but that something else occupied the forefront of his mind, attention, and being. And the knowing he wouldn't be home until dusk was passing the baton to dawn, hello and goodbye in the same sentence as she left for school.

    The burn of smoke in her throat as she slept. Their home the victim of a father's drunken whim in the hope that an insurance claim would give them a fresh start.

    The unspoken agreement that behind bars is where he belonged...

    Her story is the helping hand that was always there, too often overlooked but not too late realized. The hand that brought warm water, light, and company in lonely ruminations. The sleepovers so that she didn't wake to an empty house. The hugs and affections her father forgot to give. And the promises never broken. The open arms when she had nowhere else to go- except, in truth, she always had somewhere, for those arms were never closed.

    Masao was Kemari's rock.

    Twenty months held her father in a cold, steel embrace where time was meant to repair that which was broken. However, when next Kemari gazed upon him in his freedom with knotted nerves and an upset stomach, he spared her only a glance and moved on. The mistakes and regrets of her father's recent past had built themselves into a frame of shame and placed Kemari at the center so that he regarded her with unreasonable and unjustified resentment.
