Harete is timid, shy and a soft spoken man with a light tone of voice that has a gentle and kind tone to it. He is a kind and generous man who will go out of his way to help others, though he himself can be self sacrificing at times and forgets to help himself or put himself first.

Bio:

The descendant of two Keyblade Masters from the long ago keyblade war, one of Light and one of Darkness, Harete was thought to be a girl before he was born and his parents were ready to name him after their ancestor who fought in that war, the Light warrior Herata. But when they discovered they had a son, they changed the name slightly from Herata to Harete. Being born with the Heart of the Purest Light, which contains the balance of both Light and Darkness stemming from his ancestors, had Harete been born a girl he would have been a Princess of Heart, but alas, that title would later go to Kairi, who was born with the exact same heart as Harete's.

His father being the Chief Medical Practitioner and his mother a school teacher, Harete had a pretty good childhood, though was often teased for looking like a girl and being short, something people comment on to this day, though this doesn't bother him as much anymore. He grew up learning from his father how to be a doctor, and at twenty years of age took over for his father and became the Chief Medical Practitioner of Radiant Garden.

Now at twenty-three years of age, Harete attends to everyone in the town, mostly children. He also has been known to go into the castle to treat some of the people there, and one day he caught a glimpse of one of the apprentices to Ansem the Wise walking in the castle gardens: Even. For months now, Harete cannot get Even out of his mind, and so every day at sunset he hides behind the trees in the garden to catch more glimpses of Even, too shy to approach or even speak to him. He hopes that soon he can properly meet him and not have to spy on him every day at the exact same time, which makes him feel ashamed to do.




Relationships:

N/A




Other things:

-Harete has a lovely tenor voice and can sing, but he mostly sings to himself

-He saved a boy named Lea from a terrible fever that lasted seven days

-Seya, Pryci, Leo, and Stein are his favorite patients aside from Lea and Isa

-He has been spying on Even for four months now

  Name: Auron
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Nicknames: "One-Arm" Auron
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  World Origin: Olympus Coliseum
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Current World Residence: N/A
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Physical Description(Height, Weight, hair and eye color, etc.): Auron is a middle-aged Caucasian man with black spiky hair and a vertical scar over his right eye. His remaining eye is brown, and his muscular physique is dotted with the scars he gained throughout his career. He wears a red high-collared coat and black pants, as well as a black undershirt and combat boots. His left arm is almost perpetually held as if in a sling by the opening in his coat, and his sword is usually kept sheathed on his back whenever he isn't using it. He also has a pair of shades that he wears constantly, as well as a jug of some unidentifiable form of alcohol he calls "Nog" (warning; drinking Nog may result in side effects such as drunkenness, nausea, and complete destruction of the internal organs. Consumer discretion is advised).
  
  ​
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Personality:
  
  ​
  
  
  Auron can best be described as "the strong, silent type". He never speaks unless he has something to say, and he only rarely ever adds his two cents to small talk. He is something of a sardonic asshole, willing and able to blast any that fall into his wit's gaze with unyielding sarcasm. Granted, that sarcasm only has any actual bite towards those that offend him on a personal level, but still.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  Auron has devoted his life to doing the right thing. He feels a great amount of pride in the good that he and his friends do, though he'd never brag about it in front of others (he's not Jecht, after all). He has no time for less-than-moral people, often blowing off their words and offers with more of his dry humor and silent disdain. It's to the point that he won't even consider fighting alongside them unless he's convinced it's necessary.
  
  
  Auron feels like something of a mentor to younger heroes, and he tries to guide and nurture them as best he can when possible. He has learned a few things during his travels with Jecht and Braska, and he is happy to pass along any of those lessons to any young blood willing to learn. He almost can't help himself; if he spots a younger hero having some sort of trouble, he has something akin to a compulsion to offer his aid. This often gets him a comment or 10 from Jecht, but that hasn't affected him in years so it's fine.
  
  
  No matter what else passes through his heart, Auron prizes the ability of choice above all others. To him, each person's life is a story with the person in question being both protagonist and author. Their lives are their stories, and no one else has a right to dictate how it's written. He will fight to the death to defend a person's right to choose their own fate, no matter the cost.
  ​
  
  
  Auron's bond with Jecht and Braska is absolute. Nothing can shake his faith in them, and they are always at each other's sides even when physically separated. It might be a bit corny, and even cliche, but Auron is quite proud of his friends and makes no apologies for how he feels for them. His sardonic and prideful nature often causes him to "clash" with Jecht, and the two are mutual rivals.
  
  
  Likes:
  
  ​
  
  
  Heroes, Choice, Good, Alcohol, Protecting Others
  
  ​
  
  
  
  Dislikes:
  
  ​
  
  
  Villains, Fate, Evil
  
  ​
  
  
  
  Fears:
  
  ​
  
  
  That he'll let down his friends.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  Strengths:
  
  ​
  
  
  Auron is a veteran hero who has lived the lifestyle since day one. He's seen a lot, and he is more than willing to use every bit of that experience in the service of good. He'll also use his experience to consul and advise younger heroes, helping them with whatever problems they may face and giving them as sound advice as he's able to. He is a master swordsman so strong that he only needs one arm to fight the majority of the time. He refuses to work for evil, no matter what he may gain in the process, and he will never hurt anyone who he believes doesn't deserve the pain.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  Flaws:
  
  ​
  
  
  Though it's not entirely unjustified, Auron can be rather arrogant when it comes to his fighting skill. He never begins a fight going all out, instead only using his right hand to swing his sword unless forced to do otherwise. Usually the only way to force him to fight seriously is to show that he absolutely cannot win unless he does; otherwise, it's not necessary in his mind, and he won't waste energy on an opponent he believes doesn't deserve it. He also has some tendencies towards self-depreciation, every so often wondering if he truly deserves to walk alongside his friends. In addition, he strong will can lead to bouts of stubbornness, which can lead to conflict when he's placed with a group. It can also lead to him mouthing off to beings that could easily slap his shit right the fuck down through one method or another, which can be...problematic, to say the least. His will is strong enough that he cannot be completely controlled unless that will is removed completely and placed in something else, but he has absolutely no defense against attempts to do as such. He's also weak to illusions involving his friends, as his bond with them is strong enough that he can't bring himself to fight them seriously even when he knows the images before him aren't real.
  
  ​
  
  
  There's also the fact that, even though he knows a lot about heroing these days, he doesn't know everything. He's still quite capable of running into a quandary that he has no answer for.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Bio:
  
  ​
  
  
  Auron was born and raised in the Olympus Coliseum, and thus was naturally raised to become a hero from the get-go. He entered the hero-in-training program the moment he was old enough to apply, and he devoured the lessons he learned their with a voracious appetite. During the early days of his studies, Auron met two fellow trainees named Jecht and Braska, both of whom he became fast friends with. It wasn't long before the trio became inseparable, and they went through their entire education side by side.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  When they graduated, they felt it was only right to travel together, with Braska as the leader and Auron and Jecht playing the part of Guardians. For many years, they were an unbeatable team. Braska and Jecht in particular became famed throughout the Realm Between for their heroism and valor. Auron was often overshadowed by their more approachable natures, but he didn't mind. How could he? Two friends of the highest caliber with whom he traveled and saved those that needed them...Auron already had everything he could ever want.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  He is currently visiting Radiant Garden, having long wanted to see it for himself and see what all the fuss is about. Braska and Jecht went ahead of him, and are currently helping to train Heroes-in-Training that are visiting from the Coliseum. He decided to stay behind, if only to peruse for a bit longer; besides, it's not like this place isn't impressive. Who knows? Maybe he'll find something that needs their attention...
  
  
  
  
  
  Relationships: Braska and Jecht (Auron's Best Friends and Partners in Heroism)
  
  ​
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Other things: A lot of this was copy/pasted from the other character sheet and edited a bit to fit the setting. The main personality differences between this Auron and the one trapped underneath Hell's shittiest rock are that this one is more cheerful, but also less experienced.

  Name: Braska
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Nicknames: "The High Summoner"
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Age: 32
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  World Origin: Zanarkand
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Current World Residence: N/A
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Physical Description(Height, Weight, hair and eye color, etc.): Braska is a tall Caucasian man with dark blue hair and blue eyes. He wears a red robe that covers his entire body, which also has a variety of protection spells woven into it to help him handle all the ridiculous shenanigans a hero is typically put through. He carries with him a large, ornate staff of gold and red, and he wears a ceremonial hood (usually worn by the High Priests of Lady Yunalesca) with a single white cloth acting as a long tassel. He has a bracelet of beads on his right wrist, which was gift from his parents as a celebration of his graduation from the Coliseum's training program.
  
  ​
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Personality: Braska is a cheerful and friendly man. He goes out of his way to help others, which is often both the source and solution to the problems of the day that he and his friends face. He is the kind of man who doesn't see what they do as something that deserves a reward; after all, isn't aiding your fellow man only natural? Why would he ever ask for compensation for doing the right thing?
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Braska is the leader of their group, and it shows. While his chronic heroism is often a problem, it's also exactly that unabashed empathy and kindness that make people like him so much. Whenever his friends get into one of their arguments, Braska is always there to mediate. He is also not afraid to put his foot down when he needs to, administering stern thwacks of his staff as needed until they are willing to listen to reason. Braska is probably the wisest of the three, and his intense empathy often causes him to try and understand even the Darkest of beings.
  
  
  
  
  
  The High Summoner is a very forgiving person, and he believes in the concepts of mercy and justice very strongly. He will never stand aside and allow injustice to persist, regardless of the odds, and he will do his utmost not to kill any opponent he finds himself fighting against. He is an extremely big believer in saving others even from themselves, and he only kills his foes when he has no other choice, and only with a grieving heart.
  
  
  
  
  
  Braska is not capable of seeing a million deaths as just a statistic; every single death is a personal loss in his eyes, and he feels the pain of that loss appropriately. He has had to deal with a lot of heartbreak because of this, and likely would have completely shut down a long time ago if he hadn't had Auron and Jecht's support.
  
  
  
  
  
  Likes: His Friends, Friendship in General, Summoning Magic, Good, Helping People, People in General, Heroes, Peace
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Dislikes: Conflict, Chaos, Suffering
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Fears: He fears the deaths of his closest friends.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Strengths: Braska is, bar none, the absolute best caster of summoning magic alive today. He has such a strong rappart with his Aeons and such high mana stores that he is capable of summoning three of them at once (though this number is reduced if one of the Aeons in question is Bahamut). He is more fit than one would expect of a dedicated magic specialist, since...well, since otherwise he wouldn't be able to keep up with Auron and Jecht, let alone lead them. He is very, very good at gaining allies, and his extreme empathy makes it difficult to hide how you're feeling from him. He is also probably the wisest out of the three heroes, able to understand concepts and solve conundrums far easier than Auron and Jecht ever could. He is also (surprisingly) a fairly good judge of character, able to see the light in others no matter who they are with an almost frightening ease.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Flaws: Braska's good heart, kind nature, and insistence on seeing the best in everyone makes it pretty easy to fool him if you're not too terribly obvious with how evil you are. His large capacity for caring makes him pretty simple to manipulate in general, as all one needs to do is put others in danger and he'll have to run off and rescue them. That empathy also makes it very easy to hurt him, as he takes every death personally regardless of how much connection he had to the people in question. Also, while he may be more fit than you'd expect due to needing to keep up with his closest companions, he is still not anywhere near being a CQC fighter; any expert capable of getting past his Aeons could smack him around like a child pretty damn easily once the gap is closed.
  
  ​
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Bio: Braska was born to an affluent family in Zanarkand, and he was raised wanting for nothing. He found the detached and lonesome nature of the elite to be intolerably suffocating, however, and he was pretty young when he first started sneaking out to see the rest of the city. He soon met a kid named Jecht, and the two became fast friends. Jecht and Braska were as different as night and day, but they got along like bread and butter despite all reason and logic dictating they should have hated each other.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  It didn't take long for Braska and Jecht to realize that they both held a deep desire to help people, and they soon resolved to become heroes. Not just any heroes, though; no, they were going to become the greatest heroes since the Six Saviors that vanquished Chaos itself! Braska, being the honest lad he was, told his parents about his dalliances and desires. As it turns out, they were not terrible people; while they were extremely worried about all the danger their son would face as a hero, they couldn't say no when he felt such passion for the idea. They payed for both his and Jecht's passage to Olympus Coliseum, though they did make Jecht promise he'd protect their precious baby (as an aside, no, Braska will never live that meeting down).
  
  
  The Coliseum was like nothing the pair had ever seen before, nor was its ways anything they'd ever experienced. Even so, they took to the challenge with aplomb, and they excelled at all they were taught. It was during this time that they met another lad named Auron, and he quickly became One of Them. Indeed, he fit in so naturally with the two Zanarkand natives, it was almost like there'd always been an Auron-sized hole next to them that'd only just been filled. The trio became an inseparable team.
  
  
  Braska, Auron, and Jecht decided that trying to be heroes on their own was ludicrous, and so formed their own little team of good and yes. After learning alongside one another for years, it took approximately 2 seconds before Jecht and Auron elected Braska as the leader of their Spirit Squad, and he (extremely embarrassed though he was) gladly accepted the responsibility. They have been together ever since, righting wrongs and do-goodering every day without any intent on stopping. Braska's good will, idealism, and faith in others continues just as strong as it ever had, and he felt that faith was constantly being proven with every adventure.
  
  
  He and Jecht are currently at Radiant Garden, having gone ahead of Auron to help train some recruits from the Coliseum. It feels so good to see these kids learn all they can to aid others, and he has high hopes for every one of them.
  
  
  Yes, in Braska's eyes, the future looks very bright indeed...
  
  
  
  
  
  Relationships: Jecht and Auron (His Best Friends and Partners), His Aeons (Dear Friends), People (Good Friends)
  
  ​
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Other things: Braska's the leader of the trio, but is also too nice for his own good, basically.

Alecta Nekros


World Origin:


Olympus coliseum


Current World Residence:

Radiant Garden

Physical Description:


Alecta is still young and it shows, a late bloomer, she seems to be in that awkward period where her height is shooting up but not much else is. As a result, she seems a little awkward and gangly in her 5'8 reach and is slimly built. She keeps her hair long and lets it reach down hr back in a mess of uncontrolled growth. She has an elfish face with unnaturaly red eyes. Clothing wise, she seems to prefer loose and functional shirts and pants and dislikes anything resembling as skirt.


Personality:


Alecta is paranoid to a fault and it shows. She always seems a bit jittery and nervous and in conversation is a bit jumpy at the slightest thing. She is kind to a fault though and is always an empathetic ear. She prefers listening to speaking and is very insightful when she does finally compose her thoughts. Reticent from afar, those who she is close to find out that she has a mischievous side and loves slipping jokes and snark in under the radar. The day you figure out how many jokes she has made at your expense is the day you know she is our friend.


Likes:

-Animals (specifically her pet monster from hell dog)

-Ghosts: Most of her friends


-Music: Plays bass guitar when she has time and is sure no one is around


Dislikes:


-Noise


-Pushy people


-Hades


Fears:


Being dragged back down to the underworld and being stuck there.


Strengths:


Alecta isn't quite... alive, more like a ghost manifesting a body. As a result she can be a ghost in some ways at will. She can Become incorporeal at will and can near fly (more like ignore the rules of gravity for a bit)


-Animals: Contrary to popular belief animals aren't really afraid of the beings of Hades, much to her relief


Flaws:


Paranoid and untrusting, natural for someone who thinks she's being hunted down. Being dead is draining to her physical form, so when she uses her powers.


Biography:


People seem surprised that Alecta can see ghosts. But of course she can, she is dead people. Alecta was killed in an accident when she was just a toddler and her soul went to Hades. Growing up in the underworld was difficult, but Alecta scraped by in the dead's faux society. She managed to grow up somewhat healthy in the underworld aging slowly (She's something around 100 years dead now) she slowly became a important member of Hades society. Eventually, eager to ignore more work, Hades recruited her as a greeter and gate guard to the underworld where she welcomed the newly dead and helped Cerberus, still a puppy then, guard the perimeter. Growing close to the dog. One day though, Hades came to her with a mission. Give a baby this weird potion. Do it and she'd get a body. She complied, eager to see the living world, and gave the baby Hercules the potion to make him mortal. After returning, Hades, pleased with her success sent her on more and more missions to the world of the living until one day, Alecta decided she'd had enough. After completing he last job she escaped the world by jumping through a portal created by a passing Keyblade wielder and arrived at Radiant Garden. Now, the part ghost, part mortal lives and plays in the garden, but is always looking over her shoulder for an agent of the underworld trying to bring her back.


Relationships:


Fugitive from Hades, Cerberus's preferred owner.

• So Just Deal With It!

• 
  
  
  
  Name: Jecht
  
  
  Nicknames: "The Hero", "The Great Jecht" (This is one only he uses.)
  
  
  Age: 30
  
  
  World Origin: Zanarkand
  
  
  Current World Residence: N/A
  
  
  Physical Description(Height, Weight, hair and eye color, etc.): Badass.
  ​
  
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Personality: Jecht is boisterous and crass, and is such an arrogant jackass that he legitimately believes that he is one of the greatest things to ever grace the Realm Between. He is extremely skilled, and you better believe that he will revel in how great he is even when he isn't shoving it in your face. He is gruff, always speaking his mind and only sparing a thought for the feelings of others when it comes to serious matters.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  That being said, Jecht may be kind of a dick, but he's also a good man. He is extraordinarily rough, but he does truly care for every one of his fellow residents of the Middle Realm, and he would go to any lengths to protect them. He greatly enjoys the fame and glory that heroism provides, but they're not the reason that he's a hero; they're just really sweet side benefits. He's a hero because he loves to help people (even if he'd rather die than admit it half the time) and he loves to fight, and being a hero lets him do one by doing the other. He can't just sit back and let other people suffer; he's secretly just as much as a bleeding heart as Braska. He just tries to hide it.
  
  
  Jecht adores the sport of his homeworld, Blitzball, and he will talk the ears off of anyone unfortunate enough to ask a question remotely related to it. He is by far one of the best Blitzballers alive, which is yet another thing he uses to stroke his ego. His love of the sport is so extreme that he even worked it into the way he fights.
  
  
  
  
  
  Jecht has problems being honest with the softer side of his emotions, especially anything resembling outright affection. He becomes a stuttering, blushing, fidgety schoolgirl whenever he tries to frankly express his kindness without covering it up with any of his usual pedantic "Imma Badass" nonsense. His sheer awkwardness at being honest about how much he cares for others is one of the things that drives him to play up his more ridiculous shenanigans; being the "more arrogant than Chernabog" savior is easier than being the good person he prefers to hide he is.
  
  
  If there's anything Jecht loves as much as his friends (and Blitzball), it's fighting. The man takes the concept of a "Blood Knight" and has embraced it so thoroughly that he just might snap its back from the bearhug he's trapped it in. He adores any excuse he can find to get into a scrap, though he only gets serious against things threatening innocent people...and Auron. Hot damn, does he love fighting Auron. Kicking the crap out of his best friend and rival is, like, the greatest thing that isn't Jecht himself.
  
  
  Jecht does not do anything half-way. Anything he does, he gives his all doing it. It could be fighting, boasting, practicing, playing Blitzball, drinking, or doing the laundry; he will treat that shit with the sort of attention and focus that most people reserve for life and death situations. He doesn't even do it on purpose; that intensity is just his natural state of being.
  
  
  Jecht is not able to gain people's adoration by being the straight-forward picture of purity that Braska is, so he does it his way: by being as ridonkulisly awesome as he possibly can be. Jecht uses his natural intensity to make himself the Manliest Man to ever Man, and he will do all sorts of shit that less Manly people would think of as impossible all the time just to prove how amazing he is. He goes out of the way to awe on-lookers, and he lives his life as Flashily Manly as is possible as a result.
  
  
  Because he's an idiot.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Likes: Auron and Braska, Doing Good, Fame, Praise, Showing Off, Fighting, Winning, Getting Better, Helping Others, Helping Others Get Better, Alcohol, Tili of Destiny Islands (who he is not crushing on SHUT THE FUCK UP AURON!!!)
  
  
  Dislikes: Losing, His Friends Getting Hurt, Losing, His Friends Getting Insulted, Losing, Being Teased (SWEAR TO YUNALESCA, AURON), Losing, Hurting Innocent People, Losing, Disrespecting Heroes and Heroism in Any Way, and Losing
  
  
  Fears: That he won't live up to his own hype one day.
  
  
  Strengths: Jecht may act like a total tool, but it is, in fact, an act. He is only able to talk that talk because he's able to walk the walk that comes with it. Out of the three of them, Jecht is almost certainly the best fighter, and he is absolutely the best Blitzballer. He's also not as goddamn dumb as he pretends to be, and can be surprisingly insightful when he gets his head out of his ass for long enough. He is by far the most powerful of his team; neither Auron or Braska can quite reach his level of endurance, strength, dexterity, and agility. Hell, if it weren't for his pathological need to show off, Auron would find it a lot harder to win any of their endless contests.
  
  
  Flaws: Even if it's not how he really is, he's still acting like an idiot, and that means he does idiotic things all the time. He is one of the easiest beings alive to goad into doing something rash, and actually losing is absolutely unacceptable; he will never rest until he "takes back his spot at the top", which can make him act even more rashly. He also isn't all that great at magic, and so has to settle for just bum-rushing his opponent and/or pelting them with blitzballs until they die. Also, yes, his arrogance can definitely rub people the wrong way despite how much crazy shit he does to prove he ain't fakin' his amazingness. There's also the fact that, while he isn't aware of it, he is destined to become SIN, which is...not exactly a future he'd be pleased with, to say the least. No matter what he does or how he does it, he cannot escape his fate.
  ​

  Bio: Jecht's was born to a middle-class Zanarkand family that could not have given less of a shit about him if they tried. With the exception of meals, they outright ignored his existence, not acknowledging his presence unless he didn't give them a choice to. This sparked the beginnings of the complex that would dominate most of his future attitudes: he had to stand out just to get even the most basic questions answered, and even then he had to force it out of his parents unwilling bungholes.
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
  Naturally, the most outgoing and energetic child ever born could never stand such treatment for long. He spent all the time he could outside the home, quickly taking a fascination with Blitzball and training his ass off to be the best he could be at it. Jecht soon began to actively seek the praise of his fellow neighborhood children, because that was the only praise he ever got. Emotionally, it was the only anything he ever got.
  
  
  Until he met a boy named Braska. Apparently the other kid's parents were some hoity-toity better-than-u types or something, and Braska decided to say "no thanks" to that. Even Jecht was surprised at how easily the two of them became friends, and he soon came to depend on Braska almost to the point of using the other boy as an emotional crutch.
  
  
  If there was one thing besides attention Jecht had always wanted, it was punishing bullies. He couldn't stand shitlords that abused their power to push others around. They should be using that strength to be awesome, not living refuse! Those kinds of feelings were what sparked his interest in becoming the greatest hero of all time ever, and since Braska was his bestest buddy, naturally the guy should be the second greatest hero of all time ever.
  
  
  Jecht never really knew what was up with the relationship between Braska and his parents, but they couldn't be too bad because they let the two of them go off to start their training. They even gave him some absolutely delicious teasing fuel to use against Braska forever. And things got even better when they got their and met Auron, who quickly became their Co-Best Friend. Just as expected (well, okay; just as expected but with one additional person), Jecht, Auron, and Braska kicked the crap out of every other student in their year. After graduating, the two swordsman basically forced Braska to be their leader because even Jecht would admit (albeit through a storm of grumbling) that The High Summoner was the smartest and most caring of the trio.
  
  
  They've been kicking the ASSES OF EVIL ever since. Right now they're hanging out at Radiant Garden, with Braska and Jecht having left Auron The Slow Poke in the dust because he was too busy window-shopping to keep up to the training facilities. He and his Summoner are currently helping train all the proto-heroes, who just might become great one day with his masterful guidance.
  
  
  They'd just have to give up on ever reaching The Great Jecht's level.
  
  
  Relationships: Braska and Auron (Best Friends and Partners), Tili ("His girlfri-" "I WILL END YOU")

  Name: Zack Fair
  
  
  
  
  Nicknames: Heroes-in-Training aren't yet cool enough to have nicknames.
  
  
  
  
  
  Age: 16
  
  
  
  
  
  World Origin: Olympus Coliseum
  
  
  
  
  
  Current World Residence: Olympus Coliseum
  
  
  
  
  
  Physical Description(Height, Weight, hair and eye color, etc.): He's a teenage Cloud, but happy, dressed up for the Coliseum, and his hair is both black and somehow even spikier.
  ​
  
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  
  Personality: Zack is, like many up and coming heroes (that actually have a chance of making it), is a very upstanding and moral person. He fights because someone has to, and he may as well help people fighting than rot away during grunt work for the Coliseum, eh? He is an extraordinarily friendly guy, and is in fact able to make friends at the drop of a hat. He has strongly held beliefs over what's right and what isn't, and you can bet your patooty that he'd fight for your rights if given half the chance.
  
  
  
  ​
  
  
  
  Zack is nice. He's just...really, really nice, you know? He's your friend. Yes, your friend. It doesn't matter if you haven't met yet; he's your buddy, and you're his, and he cares about you. You need help with something? Good ol' Zack's got your back. You need someone to help you out with your training regimen? Don't worry, my man; Zack's got you covered. You feel overwhelmed and alone by life in general? Hey, it's okay; Zack'll listen and give you advice, but he won't push you either. 'Cause he's your friend, and Zack knows the value of friendship more than anyone.
  
  
  He's also something of a flirt. He's not, y'know, good at it, but still. If he thinks a girl's pretty, you can rest assured that he will ask her for a date. Not immediately, of course, as that would be weird. But don't let your guard down; it's coming. You'll just be walking along, thinking maybe this Zack guy's alright, and BAM! "Hey, you want to go on a date?" Just like that. Now you know, and as they say, knowing is half the battle.
  
  
  It should be pointed out that Zack's kindness does have its limits. He has little tolerance for people who abuse others, and he has even less for those who kill without a damn good reason. He will actively hunt you down if you hurt women or children, or if you betray your comrades. He (probably) won't intend to kill you, but he's definitely not planning on letting you get off scott free either.
  
  
  This leads into the next point: Zack is very, very determined. You'd have an easier time telling the sun to turn itself off than you would in telling Zack to back down from something he's decided to do. If he also believes that it's the right thing to do, then you might as well pack and go home; this is not a battle you're going to win. Zack has the not-entirely-inaccurate opinion that a quitter doesn't have what it takes to be a hero, and so he's not a quitter. He is the anti-quitter.
  
  
  Zack looks up to legitimate heroes a great deal, and none more so than the vets. They're the ones who've seen and done it all, who've fought everything the Darkness could throw at them and came out on top. They're literally Living Legends. As an aspiring hero himself, he can't not idolize them a bit, y'know? It'd be like if a student painter thought that da Vinci was all fluff and no substance.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Likes: Good, Kindness, Flirting, Heroes, Altruism, Cloud, Tifa, Aerith, Yuffie
  
  
  
  
  
  Dislikes: Evil, Jackassery, Villains, Cheating, Getting Turned Down
  
  
  
  
  
  Fears: Failing to protect anyone he cares for.
  
  
  
  
  
  Strengths: In terms of talent, Zack could be considered something of a prodigy. He experiences an exponential amount of growth in all areas the more he trains, he is able to come up with his own versions of others' techniques simply by seeing the originals a couple of times, and he gets stronger after every fight. Because of this advantage, Zack doesn't really have any areas he's really weak in combat-wise; he's a natural all-rounder. He's also quite a bit stronger than his rank would imply; he's no graduate, certainly, but he'd give several experts a run for their money on the field of battle.
  
  
  
  
  
  Flaws: Zack has a great amount of talent, but a lot of that talent hasn't been unlocked yet. He's still very much a Hero-in-Training, and so he is only strong in comparison to most others who possess the title. While he'd be able to give an expert a run for their money, he would never be able to overpower or outmaneuver them; the only way he could win is if he either got lucky or outlasted them. Against a graduate, he has no chance. He simply doesn't have the skill and experience to match up to someone who's exceeded the final hurdles of the Coliseum.
  ​
  
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  
  Bio: Zack was born in Olympus, and like many born there, he was practically destined to join the Coliseum's hero program. He was noted for his exceptional adaptability and incredible growth, but he also was born during an exceptionally busy time in the Coliseum's history; with so many students, they simply didn't have enough instructors to teach them all, and so some had to wait until someone got free. Zack, for his part, did manage to get some unofficial help from a veteran named Angeal, but he wasn't able to snag any official support. He had to make due with training by himself and watching others as closely as he could, emulating what worked and tweaking what didn't to suit his needs.
  
  
  
  ​
  
  
  
  This continued for his time there until he was chosen to be part of a group sent to Radiant Garden out of an almost desperate wish that there'd be somebody there who could help tutor the hopefuls until the actual instructors were free to focus on the group themselves. There, he met four people he became instant friends with (all of them kids, for some reason). Cloud, a blonde haired boy Zack somehow became instant brothers with. Tifa, who was Cloud's best friend and therefore Zack's "sister" by default. Aerith, who was probably the sweetest entity Zack had ever met period. And then there was Yuffie, the youngest and most rambunctious of the lot, and whom Zack insisted he was friends with.
  
  
  Zack is still at Radiant Garden, and he spends his days either training with the other trainees or hanging out with one of his four buddypalfriends. This most often ends up being either Cloud or Aerith, depending on the day, but he tries to be there for all of them as much as he can. He's even planning on showing off a few moves for Cloud since the lil' Chocobo Chick wants to be a hero too! He should honestly be looking up to an actual hero, in Zack's opinion, but if he was settling with Zack, then darn it, Zack would be the best role model Cloud ever had!
  
  
  How could he even consider doing anything less for a friend?
  
  
  
  
  
  Relationships: Cloud and Tifa (Siblings Born Of Separate Older Females), Aerith (Cutest and Sweetest Lil' Not-Sis That You Ever Did See), Yuffie (Friends...or at least, that's what he thinks. Who even knows what goes through Tiny Child Yuffie's mind...)
  
  ​
  
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  
  Other things: How can you not like Zack, seriously? He's Zack. Being likable is practically his thing.

Name:


Rodotan





Nicknames:


N/A





Age:


38





World Origin:


Radiant Garden





Current World Residence:


Radiant Garden (General of the Guard to Ansem the Wise)





Physical Description(Height, Weight, hair and eye color, etc.):


Rodotan stands at 6'3'', weighs 160 lbs all muscle, has broad shoulders and a fit frame for an older man. His hair is storm grey in color and long to his lower back, and his eyes are medium grey. He has some wrinkles around his eyes, as a veteran fighter who has seen some shit.





Personality:


Rodotan is a General to Ansem the Wise, and truly he acts the part. He is serious, focused and a very disciplined fighter, who is also an eloquent speaker. He is a strategist through and though and enjoys the tactics in battle. While he is a General, he is not one to just dictate the battle and stay behind-he likes to get hands on and kick ass himself. He is patient to a point, but has no tolerance for ignorance and especially hates slackers. He is also protective of those close to him, especially of his brothers Dilan and Aeleus, who he is always proud of.





Likes:


-Sparring


-Training promising soldiers (he trained Dilan and Aeleus himself)


-Ansem the Wise


-The Six Apprentice (though he only tolerates Braig)


-Leipel, who he considers a close friend





Dislikes:


-War (Believe it or not, he doesn't like war and what Hell it brings)


-Slackers


-Weaklings


-The monsters that keep popping up around town





Fears:


-The death of his younger brothers


-Dying himself and leaving his brothers behind





Strengths:


-Tactician


-Intelligence when it comes to the battlefield


-Physically strong and agile


-Disciplined and has great foresight





Flaws:


-Can be angered easily


-Is slow to give others a chance to train with him


-Can be gone for days at a time fighting Unversed and protecting his home world


-He can be unreasonably overprotective of Dilan and Aeleus. Why do you think they're castle guards and not actual soldiers?


Bio:


Rodotan is the first of three sons to the Captain of the Guard in Radiant Garden, followed by Dilan, who is five years younger than Rodotan, then Aeleus, who is seven years younger. From childhood, Rodotan grew up wanting to be a soldier, and he trained with his father for the first eighteen years of his life before being admitted into the guard.

It would take him another ten years, during which both parents passed away, until Rodotan became Captain of the Guard himself, and thanks to his proficient fighting and leadership skills, became a General at the age of 35. It was then Dilan and Aeleus joined Ansem the Wise's guard, but Rodotan would prevent them from fighting outside the castle, afraid that his brothers would be lost to the monsters called Unversed. He often travels outside of town, sometimes for weeks at a time, to defeat these creatures and defend not only his home, but his younger brothers, his only family left.

Now he comes home after an entire month of being away, but he brings along some new friends he met out on his travels...


Relationships:


Eldest brother to Dilan and Aeleus


Friends to Jecht, Braska and Auron (@Ancalagoner )





Other things:


-Rodotan uses storm magic which his father also taught him, but he furthered his studies into this magic over many years and became a Master Storm Magician of sorts. Despite this, he prefers to use his weather vane staff for actual combat fighting, unless he needs to use his magic-or show off a bit.


-His brothers, while they love him, are none too pleased that their brother won't let them become soldiers...nor do they like him being away for weeks at a time.

  Name: Ienzo
  
  
  Nickname: N/A
  
  
  Age: Just around 10
  
  
  World of Origin: Radiant Garden
  
  
  Current World of Residence: Radiant Garden
  
  
  Physical Description: Ienzo stands at only about 4'4" with slate blue hair covering his right eye. The only visible eye, on a normal basis, is a very light blue color. He is very fragile due to his young age, and is shorter compared to others his age.
  
  
  Most often, he will wear a black-and-white v-neck beneath his apprentice's coat (of which is a few sizes far too big). Despite having folded the sleeves of the coat up, the edges still rest further down than the belt line of his blue jeans. Most often, he will wear a set of black sneakers, though on the rare occasion he is permitted to take part in an experiment, he will change to boots to avoid possible damage to the former pair of shoes.
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Personality: Ienzo is a very quiet individual, though this is not to be mistaken for antisocial tendencies. While appearing to be a stoic, impassive child, the boy is actually fragile inside. Those that he looks up to and trusts will be able to, ironically enough, read him like a book, and will be able to tell when his emotions shift whereas others would just take such shifts as returns to his stoicism. He has gone through a chief tragedy in the form of both his biological parents' deaths, and the moving from his life in the rural area of Radiant Garden to the castle itself.
  
  
  This all-too-sudden change in his life forever left a major impact on the boy's life, and as such, he chooses to try distance himself from most people to avoid such heartache again. Despite this, as a still-growing child, he has sought out parental figures to fill the void left by his late parents, and uses those he replaces them with as role models, leading him to take on traits characteristic of scientists despite his young age, such as an intelligence far superior to others of his age group. His natural curiosity as a child has been heightened due to those around him, thus he managed to retain some characteristics thought of young children like himself.

  -Childish people
  
  
  -There isn't actually much he dislikes

• 
  
  
  Bio: Born to two rather obscure and unimportant parents in the rural area of Radiant Garden, Ienzo initially led a rather uneventful life. However, this changed when both his mother and father were killed by creatures unknown to Ienzo at the time (Unversed as he has now learned). The boy had captured the eye of the Radiant Garden castle's keeper, Ansem the Wise, and was taken under his wing to be the sixth apprentice when news of his orphaning reached the castle.
  
  
  In his time under Ansem's care, he was re-introduced to being in the constant company of those who cared about him. Among the people whom he saw day-to-day, he had grown the closest to not just the man he saw as a foster-father of sorts, Ansem, but also to the head scientist: Even. When he is not with castle's keeper, he spends most his time at the side of, or in the vicinity of Even, often doing whatever it is he is able to make the scientist's workload easier. That is, until his first encounter with the Unversed, which would eventually lead him to attempt and ditch the older man's company in favor of seeking the creatures out from time to time. Ienzo is smart enough to keep this to a relative minimum for now, as he would hate to damage his relationship with the castle's inhabitants beyond repair due to his little times of sneaking away.
  
  
  Relationships:
  
  
  Ansem the Wise (One of two father figures he looks up to)
  
  
  Even (Other of two father figures he looks up to; Spends most of his with)
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Other Things:
  
  
  -While he loves to read, his favorite genre is actually fantasy, though he will often mask this with more mature themed writings to make himself appear just that: more mature. When he does not share company with anyone, he will return to his fantasy novels and fairy tales.
  
  
  -Surprisingly, he holds no grudge against the Unversed for their deadly actions; he actually finds them unusual, and his curiosity has sparked a desire to learn more about them

  Name: Ansem
  
  
  
  
  Nicknames: Ansem "The Wise"
  
  
  Age: Middle-Aged
  
  
  World Origin: Radiant Garden
  
  
  Current World Residence: Radiant Garden
  
  
  Physical Description(Height, Weight, hair and eye color, etc.): Ansem is a middle-aged Caucasian man with blonde hair and a semi-wizened face. His long-ish blonde hair is kept straight and impeccable, as is his simply glorious beard. His red eyes almost glow with his humble compassion, and most of the lines on his face are born from smiles more than furrowed brows. He wears a white lab coat over black dress clothes along with equally formal slacks, as well as a purple tie and the dark red sash that denotes his position as the King of Radiant Garden.
  ​
  
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  
  Personality: Ansem, as his title might ever-so-slightly suggest, is a wise man. He is also a fairly decent person, one who is freely kind to most he meets. The well-being of his people (and indeed, innocent people as a whole) is one the most important concerns to him, and he would gladly make sacrifices of himself as many times as necessary for their sake. He doesn't have it in him to turn away a person in need.
  
  
  He is a naturally inquisitive man, and one who has his own kind of brilliance besides. He finds a great many things of the Realms to be of great interest, but nothing commands his attentions like matters of the Heart. He has to understand everything about the Connection between Light, Darkness, and the Heart. The things he could do with that knowledge...the lives whose utter ruin he could prevent, if only he understood...
  
  
  That being said, Ansem gained his title for a reason. He takes great care to make sure his never-ending quest for answers doesn't overtake his reason, and he takes equal care to make sure he is always reminded of why he searches for those answers in the first place. He knows well the dangers of both possibilities. He refuses to allow others to suffer for his (possible) weakness.
  
  
  Everything Ansem does, he does for the sake of his people, as well as all those that suffer just out of sight. He will never rest until he has saved them once and for all. He would never forgive himself if he did any less.
  
  
  
  
  Likes: His Subjects, His Apprentices, His Staff, Science, Knowledge, The Light, The Heart, Sea-Salt Ice Cream
  
  
  Dislikes: The Darkness, Those He Cares For Suffering, Betrayal
  
  
  Fears: That his research will end in utter failure and all that he strives to protect will be brought to ruin.
  
  
  Strengths: Ansem is a brilliant scientist and inventor, and he is able to pull such impressive feats of techno-magic that it's almost indistinguishable from the real thing. Whenever he needs some piece of equipment for his studies, and it doesn't yet exist, you better believe that he'll invent it and proceed as if that little snag had never happened. He is also quite knowledgeable about several different subjects, and he has gained some experience in passing what he's learned on to others.
  
  
  Flaws: Ansem trusts those that work for him completely, believing in their inherent goodness with all of his being. Since that is the case, he is utterly blind to any signs that they might not deserve such belief unless the evidence is shoved straight into his face. In addition, while he is a scientist, king, and even a sage depending on who you ask, he's no warrior. Ansem has no knowledge or experience in the field of battle, and would be quickly slain by anyone who knew what they were doing. In addition, while it is yet unrealized, he has a great deal of potential in Darkness...
  ​
  
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  
  Bio: Ansem, as with so many before him, was born as the heir to the throne of Radiant Garden. He and his parents got along well enough, but there was always of a disconnect between them. Maybe it was their lack of drive towards learning new thing themselves, maybe it was his interest in even the most mundane aspects of the people's well-being, or maybe they were just too different personality-wise. Whatever the case, though he didn't know what kind of a ruler he wanted to be at the time, he quickly learned what kind he didn't want to be. The previous King and Queen weren't bad, by any means. They just weren't as good as Ansem was willing to settle for.
  
  
  The future King dived into his studies, and he learned all that he could. As he did so, however, he also began to question why he wanted the knowledge, as well as how that knowledge could be used for the betterment of all. So it was that Ansem's attentions began to be drawn to matters of the Heart, and he began to learn him not only know-how, but the wisdom needed to put that good stuff to some actual use.
  
  
  The more he learned (and the better he got at learning how little he knew), he began to draw the praise and admiration of the common people. By the time he ascended to the throne, Ansem was hailed as a wise man (though not quite yet the wise man), and his pollicies made his popularity explode. He went from well-respected to beloved in less than a year, and his absolute refusal to settle for anything less than the best for his kingdom only furthered both the admiration and his personal growth.
  
  
  
  
  When Ansem became known as "Ansem the Wise", he began to wonder just how true that statement was. Sure he was intelligent, but being smart was not the same thing as being wise. Of the two, he had to admit to himself that he considered the latter to be worth more than the former. An intelligent man may have all the answers, but only a wise man could work wonders with them. His people deserved wonders that even Pre-Keyblade War society had never imagined.
  
  
  The first time he'd gained an apprentice was more of an experiment than anything else. He would spend his time training someone, allowing them to see him in a light no one else had before. He would observe their progress...and their reactions. Their attitudes, their values...and how those things changed over time. What could he pass on to the next generation, what could he learn from them, and was he capable of taking on a student without failing them in some way?
  
  
  The experiment turned out to be a resounding success, and it led to him accepting five others to the position as well. In his opinion, they have all excelled and matured beautifully. He has come to feel nothing but pride in his apprentices, and he allows himself a small amount of pride for himself for playing some small part in fostering their talents and growth into such wonderful people.
  
  
  Ansem is now faced with the greatest crisis his people have known since the time of the Chaos and the Six Saviors. These "Unversed" are a threat he cannot ignore, and he now spends much of his free time trying to find out as much as he can about them. He...hasn't succeeded. Just one lead...if he just had one lead...
  
  
  He prays that Radiant Garden will emerge from this conflict with as little suffering as possible. He simply isn't sure that his meager knowledge is enough. It is unfortunate, but he will have to burden his apprentices with whatever weight he fails to bear for the good of their home and its people. It is a shameful thing, but he cannot afford to take chances with this.
  
  
  He can only hope that the worst is behind them...
  
  Relationships: Xehanort, Braig, Dilan, Even, Aeleus, and Ienzo (They are his apprentices, as well as his dear friends); Rodotan and Liepel (He is their King, and just as with his apprentices, he considers them to be his friends); Mickey Mouse (Fellow Kings, Inventors, and Friends); Harete (He's never met the Doctor himself, but he appreciates the services that the good man has provided over the years.)

Character Image:

​

Name: Nero

​

Nicknames: "The Emerald Wind of Zanarkand"

​

Age: 37

​

World Origin: Zanarkand

​

Current World Residence: Zanarkand

​

Physical Description(Height, Weight, hair and eye color, etc.): Kolxak is an Asian-looking guy that also looks younger about a decade younger than he really is. His black hair extends down to the small of his back, and is tied with a red ribbon near its tip. His blue eyes are usually dull to the point of being almost permanently glazed over, but they blaze to life whenever he comes across something he feels strongly about. He wears an exotic green robe-dress-thing from the Land of Dragons, as well as a red cloth "belt" and white pants. He also wears a pair of those black slipper-shoe delios (they're comfy, yo). Underneath it all, Nero's slender form hides the fact that he's surprisingly ripped;

as it turns out, you can hide a lot of muscle in a concentrated area if you train right.
​

Personality: There's just no kind way to say it: Nero is socially retarded. Oh, he's much better than he was in the past, for sure...it just hasn't helped quite that much. He's very passive during most occasions, usually refraining from saying anything at all unless directly addressed. He's so passive, in fact, that he'll just go along with whatever the group he's with at the time is doing, regardless of what that something is or how most others would see it.


That's how he is most of the time. When it comes to some things, however, Nero suddenly reveals that he's perfectly capable of speaking his mind and saying no. And boy howdy, will he tell you no; Nero is a very blunt and insensitive person, and on the rare occasions he has something to say, he won't bother to coat it with even a little white lie. He also doesn't bother restraining his emotions in general, for good and ill. If he feels like hugging you, he'll hug you. If he feels like you need a beer, he'll buy one for you. And of course, if he feels like you need to be punched in the face, you'd better believe he will enact the meetings of fists and noses without hesitation. He doesn't care about things like rank, social status, or situation; he will do what he feels like on the rare occasions he feels like doing it.


Despite how much of a social retard he is, Nero does actually have at least some grasp on what's right and what's wrong. He doesn't start fights unless one of his buttons is pushed, and the small, mundane kindnesses of normal life (holding the door open for others, helping little old ladies cross the street, etc.) come as second nature to him. To him, stuff like that are just the right things to do, so it doesn't really matter what his opinion about any of it is. He also prefers to make sure that, if they haven't wronged him or someone he cares for, the people he fights deserve to be killed before he actually goes through with it. He'll still do it if forced to remain ignorant, but he'll try to make up for it if it turned out that they were actually innocent-ish...in his own bumbling ways, of course.


Nero has very few friends and only one person he outright loves, but those he has are his greatest treasures, and the easiest way to piss him off is to threaten them. Make no mistake, if he thinks you are a legitimate threat to the people he cares for, he will do his utmost to ensure you that are killed most righteously. This, combined with his aforementioned lack of situational awareness/care, is a pretty obvious recipe for disaster. It is only the constant vigilance of his wife, Lokka (along with both a healthy dose of pure luck and the fact that there are so few things that can set him off that badly), that he has yet to cause a major incident.


Nero is a borderline psychopath, but his friends and Beloved keep him from ever crossing that line. One could only shudder to think about what he might become if he lost these chains of morality...
​

Likes: His Wife, His Friends, Doing Good (When He Can Recognize It)

​

Dislikes: Threats to His Loved Ones, His Blood Family

​

Fears: The Deaths of His Precious People

​

Strengths: Nero is good at fighting. Strangely good; it has been noted that most of his fellows can't really keep up with him on the field of battle, despite not working out all that more intensely. He is easily one of the strongest people in his regiment, and his skill with a katana is considered second to none among his brothers-in-arms. In addition, despite his utter lack of anything resembling actual charisma or respectability, Nero's unrestrained and unapologetic care tends to make those who receive it return it in kind.

​

Flaws: If Nero isn't fighting, he's out of his element. He is seriously awful if he's not currently trying to make something stop living, with the exception of training to get better at making things stop living. There are reasons he doesn't have very many friends, after all (the fact that Lokka actually married Nero still utterly confounds most people who've met him). He is also garbage at commanding or strategy (though he ain't too bad at tactics), which has thus far prevented him from so much as being considered for a promotion. In addition, because he's just so horrendous at anything involving other people, he is absolutely abysmal at first impressions.

​

Bio: Despite the best efforts of a certain group of Six, there are still many remnants of the Keyblade War to be found if you only look. And of course, nowhere was this more pronounced than in the Hearts and Minds of the children of those who fell, those who were spared from suffering for the sins of their sires. As these children grew into adulthood, they remembered all the moments and stories they experienced, and it was these memories that would eventually blossom into many of the legends and myths of the present day. Such tales could be well-known or only spoken of locally, but they proved resistant, and soon proved themselves more than capable of resisting the scourge of Time's inevitable march just fine.


One of these legends was known to Nero's family (almost) exclussively, and it was one that they took extremely seriously. According to the stories they'd grown up telling for generations, they were descendants of one of the 13 Warlords of Darkness, the main foes of the 7 Warriors of Light during the Keyblade War. According to the legends, Nero was not born, but created from the heat of the Fantasian Firebird itself, as well as the ashes left behind in that terrible creature's wake. This was said this origin was the source of Nero's own monstrous lust for destruction, as well as his horrifying skill at indulging that desire.


The truth of the matter is a subject of fierce debate among the more anal/nit-picky of historians (those less petty generally assume that it was simple hyperbole created to explain an unusually strong monster of a man), but to Nero's ancestors, it was taken as absolute fact. His parents were no different, and they named their child in honor of their most "glorious" ancestor. They endeavoured to raise their child in his name, and that they meant to have him embody everything they believed the Firebird stood for.




What "it stood for" turned out to be a combination of unrestrained rage, unparalleled destruction, and unhindered freedom. This resulted in a rather...unusual childhood. Most would say abusive, though not necessarily in the most common ways. It resulted in a youth that was not allowed to grow any but the barest bones of a personality, along with an ingrained need both to fight and be free as an Extinction-Level Event in the Shape of a Bird could be.


This ended up biting them in the ass.


Nero's family had long held a personal hatred for Zanarkand. As boasting about being the descendants of the freaking Firebird tends to make people not want to live next to you, it caused them to get kicked out of the then-newly-forming capital pretty damn quickly. Being not the most rational of people from the outset, Nero's family responded with a hatred that had endured to his generation, and they were planning on see it ended in their victory. They sent Nero to train in Zanarkand's military, to learn all he could from those most tested of veterans, and then turn it against the city and destroy it from within.




Nero got about half-way to the capital before he considered it and decided that he didn't really want to destroy Zanarkand, actually. He didn't see the point. Okay, maybe it had booted his ancestors out, but that was their own fault so he didn't hold that against the city. It had never done anything to him either, so he had no personal stake in the feud. It just...didn't matter to him, and without any real motivation to continue the plan, he decided to just ignore it and join the military for real until something better came along.


He met some chick named Lokka in the first week, and the two were soon assigned to be partners in the coming years. The new team got along surprisingly well pretty much immediately, and they soon became friends (which made Lokka Nero's first, actually). While they were extraordinarily different in most areas, they both appreciated the sheer frankness the other was capable of, and they soon came to trust each other as only partners could.





The two eventually fell in love, and after several years of dating (one of them could barely comprehend friendship in the beginning, after all, let alone love) they got married. They were even assigned to the same unit, one known as the Valhalla Regiment due to the people that made it. You see, Zanarkand's whole "there are super monsters outside our front door every minute of every day of every year" thing had made them not the kind to turn away the strong. However, the simple fact of the matter was that not all strong people who applied for the military had what it took to be an officer. To balance the need with practicality, the higher-ups formed the Valhalla regiment. It was to be a unit filled with those with strength to spare, but who lacked the leadership skills to ever be promoted. The end result was more disorganized than what was usually tolerated (half the members didn't even bother to wear the uniform, for fucks sake!), the people in it were so good at their jobs that they were held in high regard anyway.


Both Nero and Lokka have been among the meatheads ever since, Nero because he belonged with them and Lokka because she went out of her way to do badly enough to stay at Nero's side. However, it has recently been decided that Zanarkand should send a representative to Radiant Garden on a mission of good will and solidarity, and Nero was among those chosen to guard the delegate...but Lokka was not. Suddenly thrust into a proper military force and without his wife's presence to temper him, Nero is slowly but surely beginning to chafe under the restrictions of the actual military regulations. He's keeping himself in check for now, as he doesn't want to worry Lokka or make her upset, but who knows how long that can last when the person in question is usually feels all of his emotions so freely...
​

Relationships: Lokka (His wife and most Precious Person; She is fated to die one year before SIN's creation against the beasts Yunalesca creates.)

​

Other things: Nero is fated to die on Zanarkand after it's pulled into the Realm of Darkness by SIN's birth. There, he will make a last stand against SIN and it's spawn before being flanked by Heartless deciding to salvage what they could from the Newborn Monster Whale's initial rampage. His death on the doomed World will result in the birth of Kolxak, The Nobody Weaponmaster, Executioner, and Bloody Armory of Oblivion.


On the OOC side of things, Nero's weapon being a katana is a reference to his faceclaim's (Citan Uzuki of Xenogears) skill with the same weapon; if you can get it for him, he becomes the single most damaging unit on foot you have.
