Realistic or Modern Misfits and Prodigies

[The Black Reaper]

Two of the newcomers to Tokikaze Academy will be my character's long time best friend, can be a male or female character, and his romantic interest and childhood sweetheart, must be a female character. Whoever wants to opt for those roles can decide how they met, and what they look like, as well as their personalities. I will of course look over the applications for them, before deciding whether they're approved or not.


This leaves two slots for newcomers to the academy, and five for characters who are already students.

Bio-Akira was born to Kenneth Joe and Chisaki Yagami, two people who could not have less in common. One was a white trash, born and raised Texan, and the other was a Japanese American who enjoyed the customs of the nation her parents were born in, as well as the customs of the nation she was born in. He was an ignorant, football obsessed drunkard and pill head, as well of a bit of racist, and she was a kind, caring, classy lady, who was always looking to learn something new. As for how these two ended up together, it was two main things that did it, the first, Chisaki would take care of Kenneth's mother when no one else would, making her as comfortable as she could be, before cancer took her, so he was always grateful to her, doing his best to not ever step on her toes. And the second, was when her druggy, abusive boyfriend found out what she was doing, he accused her of cheating, and proceeded to beat her in front of the other two, and Kenneth jumped into to defend her. After beating the guy until he was black and blue, the Texan sent him on his way. From there, the two just sort of fell together.


Fast forward a year, and Kenneth's mother, Maggie, finally succumbed to the disease. With nothing to tie the two together, their relationship began to fall apart. They began fighting all the time, and they couldn't spend more than an hour together before wanting to choke the other. Not to mention Kenneth's drinking got worse, which started even more arguments, as well as sometimes escalated them into shoving contests. What kept them from splitting up? Chisaki found out she was pregnant. Oh Kenneth didn't like that, he tried to take off as soon as she told him, but she refused to let him, and all but forced him into taking responsibility. She would later understand just how big of a mistake she made...


After Akira was born, the fighting got worse. With Chisaki having to stay home to take care of him, Kenneth had to work a back breaking job at a steel plant to support them. Every day he would come home, feeling exhausted from work, which made him irritable, so he drank, to relax himself. Which meant even more booze in the house, which Chisaki didn't like. She dealt with it though, until in a drunken stupor, he dropped Akira on his head. After a very heated argument, booze was finally banned from their home after that. This habit was quickly replaced with poppin prescription pills, as he had been using them for pain for a few years now, and with no more alcohol, he abused them like they were going out of style.


Things simply went on like this for a few years, until, one day, Kenneth decided he wanted something different. That was when the sexual abuse began, though it wasn't Akira who was abused, rather it was Chisaki. He began to force her to have sex with all sorts of people, so he could film it and get off on it. On top of that, he also began propositioning her friends and family for sex as well, driving them all away within a year's time. She tried to fight this, however, whenever she dared tell him no, he flew into a rage, ranting and raving, as well as throwing things and just having a general hissyfit, refusing to work or do anything until she complied. And seeing as she needed him to take care of them, at least until Akira reached a certain age, she begrudgingly agreed.


Skip ahead another year or so, and you've got a very different woman where Chisaki used to be. She was always downtrodden, tired, snappy, and downright bitchy, this was because, every aspect of her life was now controlled by Kenneth. He said jump, she said how high, he told her to get something he wanted, she either bought it, or stole it, she was his slave, his bitch, and would do anything he told her, so long as he continued to support her and Akira. And whenever she did disobey, he got violent, putting holes in walls, and moving to strike her, only to back off at the last second, but still instilling fear in her nevertheless. So, to keep him from becoming like that, she cooked and cleaned thoroughly, always making sure food was ready for him when he wanted it, and that there wasn't so much as a drop of dust when he came home.


It became so severe that it started to change how she treated Akira, going off on him for making the slightest mess, making him clean half the house himself while she cleaned the other, and having him do the chores she didn't have time to do while cooking for Kenneth. And if he so much as made a single mistake, she'd come at him like a bat outta hell, screaming at the top of her lungs that he was an idiot, was useless and couldn't do anything right. Not knowing any better, he took her words as fact, and simply did whatever he could, the best he could, so as to keep her from screaming at him and degrading him further.


He dealt with his shitty home life by himself for about a year, until he met two children close to his own age, Kyoko and Biyu. They became his friends in less than a day, as they meshed really well, and got along great. They always did their best to cheer him up when he was having a bad day, though that was most days, and they had no idea what always had him so depressed.


They'd stay in the dark for about three years, before finally being exposed to what he dealt with at home. They had been to his house before, rented house, but they never got to experience his mother's harsh way of treating him, nor his father's control over her. But one day, when they had gotten permission to sleep over, Kenneth came home raving and ranting, pissed about something or other, and Chisaki rushed to please him any way she could. She brought him his favorite dinner, which he threw at her, and proceeded to continue raving about utter bullshit, saying how she never did anything, and he did everything, and if it wasn't for him she and Akira would be on the street. Knowing what would calm him down, she took him into their room, and didn't come back out until morning.


When she did though, she had the three children up and cleaning the whole house, yelling at them the whole time as they did, while she herself cooked breakfast for Kenneth. Not long after this, Kyoko ditched the two boys, neither knowing whether it was because of what they were being forced to do, or she just didn't want to put up with all the bitching. Either way, they had to finish up on their own.


Once the verbal abuse and the cleaning was over, the two got out of there, going to the neighborhood park to play, though really they went there so as to get away from those two. From then on, his two friends were subjected to this behavior regularly, or rather Biyu was, as for the next few weeks, Kyoko just up and vanished.


It certainly worried them, but when Kyoko did return, and she told them to firmly drop it, they did so.


At age eleven, Akira officially began his rebellion against his parents. He became known as quite the troublemaker, both in his neighborhood, and at school. His parents didn't seem to care all that much, until he took it up a notch, and began causing property damage. Since they had to pay for it, they cared a great deal. He didn't care though, and only grew more radical as time went on. By age twelve, the beatings started. He mouthed off one too many times, and finally, Kenneth had had enough, and beat the preteen into the ground, the kid not standing a chance. Chisaki tried to stop him, but she too ended up taking a few blows. That was about when the last of her will broke, and she became his mindless puppet.


Bruises, bloody noses and broken bones didn't discourage Akira, as he continued his rebellious acts regardless of how many beatings he received. They did make him realize he needed to learn how to fight though, so, not having any kind of way to find, let alone pay for an instructor, he began to pick fights with anyone that rubbed him the wrong way. This served two purposes, first to allow him to learn through experience, and the second, to help cover up the physical abuse he endured, as he had no intention of letting anyone know, especially his two best, and only, friends.


Another year passes, the three are thirteen, and they're dealing with the drama in their personal lives, as well as the other two's personal lives, and now they're dealing with puberty. It was a mess to say the least. Akira was, and had been crushing on Kyoko for awhile, though she didn't seem to notice any signs of affection, though they did grow closer as a result, just not in a romantic fashion. While Biyu was trying his damnedest to ignore the changes altogether, as they related to his sexuality, which was taboo in his house. So caught up in such things they were, that Akira actually allowed himself the hope that they wouldn't catch him in his lie. That was a foolish hope however, as since Kyoko became that much closer to him, she became that much more suspicious of the injuries he'd have, as she'd know when he got into a fight or not.


With the help of Biyu, she confronted him about it, to see exactly what was going on. He denies that something's going on, as they knew he would, but they pressed him. He didn't cave, but he did, accidentally, let them know something was going on, and that was all they needed. It would take months, but eventually, they would find out just what he was hiding. Doing so by walking in on it first hand, Biyu's eyes widening in horror, and Kyoko's eyes narrowing in anger, as their best friend was beaten brutally before them. They tried to put a stop to it, but Chisaki kept them back, so as to keep them from getting hurt as well.


When it was over, Akira stood, smiled at them, and told them everything was fine, trying to use the same bullshit he always did, though he knew for a fact that it wouldn't work. It didn't of course. The two refused to let him stay at his house any longer, but when Biyu suggested he alternate between their houses, so he had somewhere to stay, Kyoko firmly rejected the idea. Seeing as that would leave Akira out in the cold, Biyu somehow managed to convince his father to allow Akira to stay for an extended period of time.


So, taking Biyu's family up on their offer, he stayed at their house for a few weeks. During these few calm weeks, Akira was able to sort out his feelings for Kyoko, coming to the realization that he wasn't simply crushing on her, and was rather, in love with her, or at least, was falling in love with her. He didn't get the chance to talk to her about this however, as before he could, Kenneth decided to punish him the worst way he could think of, since he refused to come home, and if he didn't he'd be in trouble with the law, so he proceeded to enroll him in military school.


Having to leave the next day, he was forced into a separation from the only two people who had made him happy, and it was going to be a long time away...


Not nearly long enough for Kenneth's taste though, as after only six months, Akira had managed to get himself kicked out and sent back home. And while six months away from Kyoko and Biyu felt like an eternity to Akira, it had been but a brief moment of complete control for Kenneth, as said son of his was the only thing, as far as he was concerned, that he didn't have control of in his little world. Akira didn't cause him much trouble after he got home though, as he was just happy to be around his best friends again, so an unsteady, false peace fell over them.


This false peace lasted until Akira's fifteenth birthday. On that day, with the birthday boy distracted, Kenneth cornered Kyoko, and sexually propositioned her, just like he had with all of the girls close to Chisaki. He offered her money and his consent to date Akira, said teen overheard this as it happened, and he snapped. Shouting in rage, he charged his father, before putting a beatdown on him so bad, that he ended up in the hospital afterwards. He just threw everything he had at the fourty year old man, so enraged he was for what the bastard had tried to do, that he nearly killed the guy.


Little did Akira know, the only reason he was able to beat his father, was because he had already been injured, when Kyoko delivered a swift knee to his crotch, all but causing him to scream bloody murder from the pain of it.


Needless to say, the party was over at that point, as the police arrived shortly afterwards. Akira was detained for a few days, before being released under Chisaki's supervision. He stayed with his mother for about six months, before his father got out of the hospital, and, with no other choices, he shelled out the cash necessary to send him to the infamous Tokikaze Academy, to get him out of their lives entirely.


Which leads us to where he is now, in Japan, sitting on a bench, awaiting the arrival of the train that would take him to his new school...and his new home.

If gossip is what you're searching for, be sure to give this girl a visit, for she is somehow aware of everything going on within the school.

Dark and unusual fashion.

Taloora isn't too judgemental, but she isn't fond of extremely boring people who are impossible to hold conversations with.

[pridedzoey]

Name- Emma page


Age- 16


Birthday- September 17th


Gender- female


Sexual orientation- bisexual, but leans towards females more often then not.


Ethnicity- British


Hair style- currently long, down to her shoulders


Hair colour- she changes it occasionally, currently a dark purple


Eye colour- Green


Height-5'3


Weight- 125


Build- not very muscular, more of a light frame in general


Preferred outfit- she normally has a grey short sleeve shirt with a black light jacket either on, or wrapped around her waist (maybe a heavier one in the colder months), some dark blue jeans, and some black and slightly purple shoes, a small brown camcorder case she usually has hooked to her waist, and a backpack with designs all over it (when in a school setting of course )


Likes- art in general, photography and video production, video games, history (though you'd probably wouldn't guess that by just looking at her), writing


Dislikes- overly aggressive people, sports, maths, making big deals over normal things


Bio- born in Bristol, Emma was born to a rather normal childhood. She always liked being creative, doodling in her notebook, occasionally making silly comics, and as she grew older she eventually got into some writing, mostly short stories. But the biggest thing that hooked her attention was photography. She loved it, capturing moments of astounding grandeur, or quiet introspection. She nearly never goes out without her camcorder. This budded from taking pictures, to making videos.


Other- she really does carry a camcorder nearly everywhere she goes

 

[The Black Reaper]

Both Taloora and Emma are accepted. Thank you both so much for submitting characters.


With those two done, there are only three slots left for people already attending the academy.


Oh and Ktulu, really nice character. Can't wait to read her bio.

 

[Ktulu]

I'll probably get it done tomorrow, or even later tonight if I'm bored enough, haha. I can't wait to take part in this roleplay!

 

[The Black Reaper]

Okay then. And I'm glad, because I can't wait either. XP

 

[ganymede]

Name- Yuuma Kita


Age- 17


Birthday- November 23


Gender- Male


Sexual Orientation- Homosexual


Ethnicity- Japanese

Height- 6'1


Weight- 140lbs


Build- Lanky


Preferred Outfit- A green sweatervest over a white button down with plain black slacks or jeans and sneakers.


Likes- Reading, science, assisting people, psychology, science fiction, psychological horror.


Dislikes- Rudeness, illogical things, sour things, arrogant people.


Bio- He was always a bit of a weird kid, a lot smarter than everyone else and not good at being friendly. This led to him being bullied a lot, which led to him withdrawing even more. His parents never really found out - he figured out how to avoid the kids, usually, and in his opinion it never got that bad - but it still affected him a lot. Drawing back into himself made him study even more, especially psychology and science, and he grew into a bit of a genius. He's usually kind, but reserved with people, because even if he's not good at socializing, he knows what it's like to be at the bottom of the food chain. When you get to know him, though, he's almost completely different - still quiet but more open, quirky, and can be known to rant. Easily flustered.

 

[The Black Reaper]

Yuuma seems cool, he's accepted. And with that, three of the five slots of people who already attend the academy have been filled, only two left there.

Bio

Byu is the youngest in a family of four children, the only son of Jund Wu and Cheryl Wu while he only lives with sisters. Such a fact as this could be questioned to be the reason why until he was twelve very easily he could and would be mistaken for a girl, it was a rare event for anyone to see him instantly as a boy or not mistake him for girl at any time as he grew up.


But he lived in a rather tender and kind household as he aged, with a father who was constantly away on business trips and a busy mother. Very commonly he would be watched by his elder siblings, which many can infer to be why he may be in some ways as feminine as he is.


When Byu had turned four he had moved from China to within the vicinity of Tokikaze Academy, his eldest twin sisters Lien and Jiao capable of attending the academy and moving out to live on the schools campus as they had wished while he was left with his last sibling, Meilin.


As the boy had gotten older it wasn't a uncommon thing for him to experience verbal bullying for how he acted and looked, but it soon grew physical which caused his parents to commonly pull him from whatever class or school he could have been attending and move him to another. This caused the once outgoing soul to grow timid and soft spoken towards others as he held the sense that it wouldn't be long before he would be bullied and transferred once again.


Byu around seven had been cornered by a group once more as he had passed his neighborhoods park on his way home one evening. He had been prepared to fall victim again when suddenly a voice had piped up over the others. This had caught the young boy off guard as he was shocked by the abrupt voice but as well by their words, which asked the others what they were doing. It wasn't long until the four boys had run off after only a few minutes of interacting with the newcomer as Byu had simply watched from his ball in the corner.


Until the new boy had helped him up, sweeping off the dirt on his clothes while the young Byu wiped away his tears quickly as he feared what the other may think.


It was fast that he found out that the other was actually on his side and was in his class, Byus first thought of them was how brave he had thought Akira was and he quickly found himself admiring the other for their courageous and kind behavior.


After that evening, even if they didn't speak he'd follow Akira around like a lost puppy, attempting to make the other laugh when he could. Which led him to meeting (Insert others name) who he found to be fun spending time with. As they grew more comfortable around each other it was difficult not to unintentionally care for either one of them, his observational eyes watching for what differences he could pick up both physically and in their behavior. His mind commonly picking up the dips in Akiras personality some days, causing great worry to fall through him subconsciously on such days.


Byu had constantly wished to be able to help the other, especially after their failed sleepover as well, it only increasing as the danger of Akiras situation only grew in its own mass. There were many times that he wished he held the necessary courage to speak up and yell at the others parents or persuade the other to tell an adult. But there was no time despite his constant wishes. All he had been able to do is put his medical textbooks to use and help his friend with whatever injuries he himself could help with since 'the hospital asked too many questions.'


Byu at the age of thirteen had begun to figure himself out personally, realizations hitting him left and right along with the lectures on success and hard work from his father. Despite his introverted persona very commonly he could be found to be at the top of the class lists academically, which had pleased his father for a fair amount of time until small signs of his sons romantic orientation began to appear.


This caused many of the past conversations on Byus future to become statements against his like for the same gender, remarks of how it was wrong and unnatural and that even if he had to fake his feelings for a girl he had to fix himself were all that his father would tell him on a day to day basis.


Byu couldn't help but be affected by these words, straying from conversations with his two friends and growing more absent minded as he tried to convince himself that his emotions were incorrect as his father, he knew, would prefer.


When Akira had been sent away to Military School Byu grew more depressed despite this being hard to see, realizing that it was difficult to remain somewhat positive and optimistic with one of his friends missing.


The remarks against him grew more from his father and stray classmates but Byu has remained quiet about such things instead focusing on expressing his worth to his father academically; which made him extremely excited to get into the same school his siblings had been able to get into as well. Tokikaze Academy.

Shiori Inoue

Age: 17

Birthday: ? July 24th

Gender: ?


Sexual Orientation: Good question. One she doesn't answer.

Ethnicity: Japanese

Hair Style: Straight. High Pony. Bun.

Hair Color: Black, with the faintest indigo highlights at the tips ends.

Eye Color: Dark Brown (near black)

Height: 5' 9"

Weight: 145lbs.

Build: Rectangular, lightly curved figure.

Preferred Outfit: Cardigans with Skirts

Likes:

Cool Greens, Flowers, Redemption Tales, Anyone Easy to Talk to, Self-Control, Peeling the Skin off Grapes

Dislikes:

Her Lack of Self-Control, Wanting What She Shouldn't, Sour Berries, Dirt, Temptation, Prying Questions

Bio:

They were a terror. And she was one of them. It was so easy. They were her friends, her sisters, and when she joined in, it was like it was meant to be. School was a battleground, a place to win, and to come out on top. Shiori loved it. They wouldn't tolerate a side look, or an off-remark. They weren't the only ones. There were others, grouped together, and they fought. The students at the school actually trying to study, well, it was impossible. In fact, Shiori was one of the ones who'd terrorize them, and all they were trying to do was just get schoolwork done.

Never once did she pay heed to the plight she was causing. Her group exalted her, their fights and their wins made her feel alive, their losses brought them that much closer together. She was more one with them than she was with any of her own blood.

And then, they went too far. A fight, a bad one, and caught by the teachers a'top it all. Expulsion. Threat of legal action. "Last chance, Inoue."

Shiori knew it wasn't a joke. Knew it wasn't because she'd heard of this school that they were moving her to. She knew what kind of people they took. And she was no prodigy.

Everything changed from there. Shiori changed. It was funny how going from gang tags and black stick-skirts to feminine cardigans and fashionable skirts made a difference. She scarcely recognized herself in the mirror. And in the new school? No-one looked at her as a threat. They talked to her. They laughed around her. They asked her to hang out. She was just another normal student, another normal girl. She was doing it. She was passing off. She wasn't screwing up her last chance.

...But she missed it. Missed her old life.​

Likes- Computers, Animals and Staring into space


Dislikes- The outdoors, loud music/noises, violent people


Bio- Some general information about her and her attitude before we get into the past.


When meeting her in passing you might think of her as a soft spoken child from an elite family who gets good grades and the pride of her family as heir. That's what her old classmates thought, it didn't help that she came from an old and distinguished family, the Maki's, now one of the richest in Japan, her pale skin, and her excemptness from gym class added to her lady like appeal. The only thing wrong with her seemed to be her heterochromic (multi-colored) eyes. But in truth Kowareta is the scorn of her family and while she does rarely speak around others, when she does she speaks her mind holding nothing back. She got into the Academy for her science and math skills specializing in computers and computer programming, if it has anything to do with an electronic device ask her. She always keeps her custom made cellphone with her and is known to on occasion use it to get into places she has no reason being.


Although the Maki family were rich and influential there was one thing that they couldn't seem to get, children. But after many fertilization techniques and an army of doctors, finally Mrs. Maki was pregnant, and not just one child, twins! It was an exciting day for the whole familyand noone could wait for the children to be born. However while one child was born strong healthy and normal a boy they named Shiro, the other his fraternal twin was born strange with two different colored eyes. This the family could accept, what they couldn't is the congenital heart disease she had, causing a weakness in the wall of her heart. The wall of her heart was too thin and at any time it could collapse.


When faced with a child that could die at any moment and a strong healthy boy with the same color eyes, its not really a surprise that her family ignored her showering all praise and attention onto the male sibling. Kowareta didn't mind being ignored by the rest of her family the only person she really cared about being her twin brother.


From an early age Kowareta and Shiro were inseparable although they tried to take the broken sibling away Shiro would cry until his sister was returned to him. As they grew older Kowareta grew small and weak while Shiro continued to thrive growing strong and tall. Shiro always stayed her protector wether it a bully at school or home Shiro was always next to her.


Shiro continued to grow as the pride of the family getting perfect grades and test scores. He was the President of the school council and all other teachers and student viewed him highly. Kowareta had always been known to stare off into space for hours when she was younger and that only got worse when she was older. She would fail almost every class she was in and often gave her teachers problems by not paying attention in class or skipping school all together to go stare at the grass or to just doze outside.


However one day while walking home with her brother a car ran a red light hitting them. While Kowareta managed to survive her brother Shiro did not. At the funeral her mother was quoted asking "Why did a broken child like you have to survive!?" Soon after Kowareta was even more distant, and soon after she agreed to go to Tokikaze Academy.

 

[The Black Reaper]

All great characters, very nice guys. Biyu, Shiori and Maki are all accepted.


That now leaves one space for a character who already goes to the academy, and one for who's a newcomer. Almost all the slots are filled, we're almost ready to start. I can't wait!

Everyone who's anyone knows who she is and think of her as a scary yakuza woman. They're too terrified of her to even think of her as beautiful. Yes, Kimiko was born in a family of yakuza. Actually, she born into one of the most powerful yakuza family in Japan. It's so integrated into Japan's politics and economics that not even the police or the government can take it down.


When she was born, her father, Akihiro Yamabuki, was indeed disappointed that she was not male, but nonetheless, he still raised her to be the heir of the family. Since she was young, her father had treated her like a male heir but her mother, Fumiko Yamabuki, tried to raise her like a perfect lady. Everyday, she learned how to fight, to use a sword, to run the family, and to be a perfect lady. She even got an early start on her education causing her to have great intelligence. Although her parents tried to raise her to be different things, they agreed on one thing, and that is to have her live up to her name. They wanted her to act as her name means; a "noble child". Thus, to this day she not only gives off a suffocating atmosphere, but also, a hint of elegance. She always moves with elegance and grace, even during kendo practice.


Growing up surrounded by men, she learned that if she wasn't strong, she'll die in the hands of her own family. Many relatives had disagreed with her father to name her heir because she was female. This is what drove her to become strong and untrustworthy of people since many of her relatives sent people to kill her. With her hard work, her relatives has finally accepted her as heir to the family. What else could they have done? She is a much better leader, stronger, and wiser than her younger brothers and cousins. She would do much better as the heir than any man could, but that didn't stop their scorn. They still sent assassins to kill her because she was not yet of age to officially become leader of the family.


When she started high school, her parents sent her to Tokikaze Academy, believing that it would be the safest place for her to be. And they were right. Her relatives could not reach her there and she has been living in peace without having to worry about assassins aiming for her life, but she is always ready in case her relatives influences somehow make it into the school. She is always on her guard and distance herself from others. The one thing she didn't want was to make a friend and then ended up betrayed. She joined the kendo team and has been captain ever since her freshman year. She is well respected by the club members but everyone was still afraid of her because of her family background.


It's not like she cares where she goes to school. This school was one of the only schools who would still take her despite her family background. It was always her family background that caused schools to reject her, despite her intelligence and amazing academic history. To be honest Tokikaze Academy was the perfect school for Kimiko; an infamous school for an infamous female.

 

[The Black Reaper]

Very, very cool. Yeah, Kimiko is accepted. Oh, and something I think you should know, there's someone else enrolled in Tokikaze that has a connection to a family of Yakuza, a very prominent one as well. Perhaps the two could be aware of one and other, and do their best to avoid each other? We'll see how that works out.


Anyway, with Kimiko now in, there's only one slot left for another character, one last newcomer to Tokikaze. We just need Kiyoko to post her character, and someone to claim that last spot, and then I can begin work on the first post, so that we can start this thing. It shouldn't be long now...

 

[Kasper]

i'd like to claim the last slot please!

 

[The Black Reaper]

Alright then, just put up your character sheet when you're ready, and you'll be the final newcomer. With that, we just need your character, and Kiyoko's character, and then we'll be just about ready to begin.

Bio Born as Amanda Akatsuka to an Irish mother and Japanese father, Takayo was often bullied as a boy. Boys' voices were supposed to deepen during puberty but his remained high pitched, he stopped growing once he hit 5 feet and 2 inches, he dressed in strange clothes, and went by Takayo rather than Amanda. Basically, he wasn't the average kid, and of course, being teenagers, the other kids wouldn't let him get away with it. This brought him to some horribly dark places in his life, some of which he's still trying to overcome. To help deal with his depression he was afforded a therapy animal - in his case, a seal point cat named Aiko - whom he loves very dearly. He still deals with suicidal thoughts and self injurious behaviours but he is trying very hard to change, and attends therapy regularly. He is also trying to come to terms with his sexuality and gender identity.

Hair Style

Generally keeping her hair short, Kyoko likes to leave her hair alone aside from keeping it cut. There's not much else to it, aside from that she actually has sections she keeps long which she usually brings around to the back and has hidden inside her sweater-like shirt. She lets those long strands out when in her kimono though, as a way to rebel against her family and the way they've tried forcing her to grow up.

Preferred Outfit

Kyoko is usually found in the same style of clothing at all times.She can usually be found wearing school-uniform type clothing, a pleated skirt and a striped sweater-like shirt of sorts. She often times mixes up the colors, sometimes going with a yellow striped sweater to a green, red, blue, purple, pink, orange, etc.; the skirt is always the same grey and black coloration though, never changing color when she changes clothing.

With her skirt and sweater, Kyoko usually always has a black jacket of sorts, reminiscent of a kimono. The edges of the jacket are lined with red, with the jacket being lined on either side by buttons shaped like four-pointed stars that don't actually button up or anything, making for the jacket to be worn open at all times. In addition to the jacket though, is that she usually wears a red scarf around her neck, which matches the lining of the jacket.

Kyoko aactually likes wearing kimonos a lot, as they go against everything her family stands for. It's one of her ways of rebelling against her parents, whom she partially hates for trying to force her grow up how they want her to, though she loves them enough to not go and do anything stupid like take on the role of a Yakuza or anything like that. Very few people have actually seen her in a kimono though, as she tends keep her 'family' and rebelling a secret from everybody else.

Likes

Kyoko's likes are very normal for a girl, taking a like of cute things and most things that are sweet, such as chocolate. Her likes tend to make people view her as so normal a person that she's refreshing. She's also into shoujo manga, as she's a little bit into romance and such.

Dislikes

She has the usual dislikes of a normal high school girl, not one for action-based things, so she'd never really be caught watching action-packed movies and such. She's also not much of one for bitter food, though that's not all too uncommon a thing people dislike.

Bio

Born to a most... unusual family, Kyoko has always been one to hide her past through a simplified story. She's always said she simply came from a Chinese father and Japanese mother, moved from China to Japan when she was young, and had a pretty normal life with her mother, but that's nowhere near what her family really was. She's quite disliking of her past as one could tell if she ever revealed the whole thing to somebody after keeping it secret so long from them, though they'd probably not trust her if she were to reveal it as she'd have been keeping secret about the fact hr family could probably kill every last one of her friends.

Born to a Chinese mafia boss by the name of Jin Tzeng, accordingly boss of a Chinese mafia gang under the name Yen-Fang, Kyoko was never fond of being part of the group widely-known in China and in some parts of Japan. That's all one really needs know about her 'family', as the rest just explains itself with the word 'mafia'. Of course, that's not to say she has something bad of a family, just that she doesn't exactly like being part of the mafia the family keeps trying to make her a fitting heir for.

Kyoko at the age of eight, Kyoko and her family made a trip to Japan that was supposed to one year; that is, saying, it didn't last the planned time. Rather, due to many issues, the stay lasted six and a half years. War broke out between the Yen-Feng and a few local Yakuza groups, which made cause for many problems that prevented leave from Japan. As such Kyoko was so tired of it all that she began her rebellion just shortly after. It was so painful, she'd often times run from the house and pretend none of it even existed. It was through this, that she'd met a boy by the name of Akira. He seemed to be having... issues in life as well, and so she found herself becoming friends with Akira and another kid, Biyu.

Three years into the constant fighting between the Yen-Fang and local Yakuza, Kyoko had eventually gotten her parents to budge at least as far as allowing her go to a public school rather than be taught by her creepy bodyguard who she honestly hated enough to slap once or twice. Of course, the only reason she could bring herself to slap the guy was because it was her own older brother, thus she didn't have qualms such as them not being somebody she knew well enough to actually hit and everything. There was also the fact she hated him enough for following the family's guidelines, teachings, etc. so it served as a form of rebellion.

Starting up a 'normal' life while away from her parents, Kyoko mainly spent time around Akira and Biyu as it helped her get her mind off of her odd family. She enjoyed her time with them, and as such decided spend more of it with the two of them. To Kyoko the two were really normal, to the point of it being a good thing and thus spent a lot of time with them. At least, that's how she thought it up until the sleepover, which was a huge no for Kyoko though still happened regardless of what her family said about it.

During the yelling and cleaning demands by Akira's mother after the sleepover, Kyoko found herself coming to both hate Akira, and admire him slightly. He had it easy compared to her, but he clearly was a wimp when it came to it becasue unlike her, he couldn't get off his ass about it like she'd done; he couldn't let go of it, and he'd gotten depressed over something she thought he'd need quite bothering with. That was the hate part. The slight admiration part though, was the fact he had the guts to keep thinking about it, whereas she'd been a coward the whole time just running from home all the time to escape it falsely claiming it to be so she could do what she wanted.

Clean-up began, though Kyoko had pretty much bailed on them while they weren't looking, as she one didn't want to deal with the crap the mother was bringing up, and two would just make things worse if she tried cleaning given she'd never cleaned anything in her life. She in partial regretted leaving them, but also knew it best for everybody due to the fact she wouldn't become a bother for them, as well as she wouldn't be put there any longer where she'd probably wind up an extreme hate toward her 'friends'.

For a few weeks, Kyoko kept her distance from her two friends, in fact keeping herself secluded and locked up not even leaving her room once her whole time there. One day, they probably assumed she just wasn't available. Two days, they probably something had come up or whatever. They probably began worrying after day three, though they had no way to get in contact with her because she'd not once said anything about where she lived, her family, nothing like that. It was only after three weeks that Kyoko bothered leave her room, and mainly because her brother said he was going to go off and "take care of" what'd made her hide in her room.

This was... the beginning of Kyoko's violent side. As her brother made way in the direction of Akemi's house, intent on beating the living hell out of the family that she'd spent the night at the house of, Kyoko followed him and when it was just the two of them in an empty area, she confronted him. She began yelling at him, calling him nasty things and above all else, ordering him not set foot near her friends and their families, ever. From then on, things pretty much went to Kyoko meeting up with Akira and Biyu once every other day or so, sometimes a few days to a full week in a row.

Thirteen years old, Kyoko finds Akira oddly growing closer to her. She took it as a sign of him just becoming closer a friend, so she gladly welcomed it at the time as there wasn't too much else too it past a small feeling that Kyoko couldn't really figure out. That small feeling was pretty much a drop of love there, but Kyoko, not really familiar with 'love' due to having the worst family circumstances ever, had nothing exactly to tell her that it was love. Because of that lack of understanding love, Kyoko eventually missed a few important details, but being closer to him made for her to notice with ease the injuries and such he'd been getting.

Kyoko was probably the first to actually know something was going on, having of course witnessed the starts to a few of his fights but without really letting anybody know she had. She'd still confront him with Biyu though, let Biyu know she 'thought' something was up and thus allow them both discover it together. Really, the results were a bit better than she'd expected, but they were definitely toward what she was looking for. Some months later, Kyoko and Biyu would walk in on it all, and of course Kyoko didn't exactly react in horror like Biyu probably did, but she did attempt help him out only to be stopped by Chisaki.

If it weren't for the fact Kyoko needed keep her violent family a secret from her friends, she'd have almost killed that asshole; of course, having yet to decide which was the asshole that needed beating up though probably leaning toward the one that'd beaten Akira up. It was proposed bring Akira back and forth between their homes for a while, but Kyoko flat-out said no entirely. She refused let them even know where her home was, refuse let them know what her family was. Sure, it would be the safest place given that even the law couldn't exactly lay finger on that giant mansion of a home, but it wasn't worth ruining her entire life and friendship when Akira could just as easily get through at Biyu's house.

Soon, the six months without Akira began. Kyoko pretty much left the group of friends during that six-month period, not really bothering leave her room another six months because of it, her brother the only source of outside-world information past Kyoko going to school. During those six months, she not once met up with Biyu, as she just finally cracked open an egg inside that missed everything but the whites, realizing that she didn't exactly belong inside that egg now that Akira had left the shell as well.

When Akira returned, Kyoko was pretty uncaring as six months had kind of changed her. Of course, they didn't change Kenneth, nor did the following two years before Kenneth pretty much tried to force Kyoko into some things with money which Kyoko wouldn't exactly take because she didn't need it. She didn't exactly say she didn't need it though, just flat-out denied his offers with a good kick between the legs while the man was distracted by the charge of Akira, thus giving Akira ample opportunity beat the living hell out of the man.

During the beating Akira gave to Kenneth, Kyoko pretty much walked out and wouldn't be seen by Akira or Biyu for a while, at least she assumed so not knowing they'd all end up at Takikaze. Her parents basically sent her there because her brother would easily get approved as a teacher there, and the fact that they knew it'd be better than crappy public schooling to send to boarding school where she couldn't really break the rules and ditch on things, which pretty much pissed Kyoko off internally because going to Tokikaze meant she wasn't normal, and she wanted to be just your normal girl. She actually was exactly like a normal girl when outside her home, though still sent to this place for weirdos and prodigies.​

 

[The Black Reaper]

She's amazing so far! Can't wait until you finish her!

 

[The Black Reaper]

Now that you're finished, I can officially say, Kyoko is accepted. And with that...we just need Ktulu to update her bio, and then we can start.

 

[The Black Reaper]

Everything's ready, the RP has now, officially, begun. I myself am going to bed though, as I'm pretty tired. See you guys in the RP section tomorrow.
