| Trivia
|
- While Susumu is adopted by Hideo Kuromiya, he still uses his true family name of Kamiya.
- Hideo Kuromiya is a saiko-komon of the Kikuchi-kai yakuza family.
- Susumu Kamiya is also a member of the Kikuchi-kai, and currently acts as a handler to one of their chief enforcers, Nika Rumyantseva.
- Official records state Susumu's parents are distant relatives of Hideo Kuromiya who died in a plane crash when he was a child.
- While Susumu is very dedicated to his schoolwork, he currently has no declared major or minor and his course load is almost impractically diverse. Because of this, he takes semi-frequent meetings with Sumaru U's guidance counsellors.
- Susumu has a terrible sense of direction and will frequently get lost even trying to find simple things. This is in part thanks to a general absent-mindedness.
- He also has a tendency to take naps in unconventional and oftentimes completely inconvenient places.
- Susumu knows bits and pieces of Russian thanks to his work experience with the Rumyantsevas, but is not fluent in any other language besides Japanese.
- Susumu possesses an Evoker; despite the fact that he is Shadow-Possessed, he still uses the Evoker in the rare times he calls forth Jabberwock.
- He always, always, always carries with him a deck of playing cards held in a handmade card case. He claims it was given to him by his biological father. Attempts to probe deeper are ill-advised.
- Despite his absent-mindedness, Susumu is a fairly good cook; his recipes however are sometimes a little unconventional and barebones.
- Susumu's informality extends to the point that he abstains from using honorifics when speaking to others; the only situations where he will use honorifics are relatively extreme (such as most yakuza-related meetings, so as not to get his ass beat and then possibly murdered).

| Profile And Skills
|
|
The adoptive son of successful businessman Hideo Kuromiya, Susumu attends Sumaru University alongside a long-standing family friend, Nika Romyantseva. Cheerful, kind, and unassuming, Susumu strikes a bright and carefree presence that always seems willing to laugh or smile even in the worst of times. Though he sometimes behaves oddly, from his almost absolute informality to his passion for gambling, Susumu is an outgoing and friendly person who is well-liked by many who meet him. But more than that, Susumu Kamiya is a boy in love -- and driven to be able to see the object of his affections, no matter what he must do.

HIS HISTORY'S A MYSTERY
HA HA! INTERNAL RHYMING!
|
| Shadow
|
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!"
The embodiment of fury, the Jabberwock is the titular character of Lewis Carroll's famous nonsense poem. The Jabberwock was a fearsome monstrosity amongst monsters, and yet for all its terror, it's sole purpose within the poem is to be violently killed.
As the Jabberwock, Susumu Kamiya is directionless violence and anger akin to a force of nature. Just what such a senseless mass of unspeakable hatred could represent inside of Susumu is as unclear as it is harrowing, but when the Jabberwock is unleashed, he is completely possessed by the shattered, perilous thoughts of his subconscious that have formed the creature.
RESONANCE: Susumu's Resonance is wildly different depending on whether his Shadow is out or not.
Normal: Almost like someone who has the Potential but has not awakened to it yet, Susumu's resonance is so faint that it might not even register for some: the unobtrusive serenity of a shallow, undisturbed body of water, so still and calming that it is hard to notice the lack of depth and life beneath the surface.
Shadow: Explosive and cacophonous anger, full of sound and fury. The feeling, the sight, and the smell of a pent up volcano's first awe-inspiring eruption, spewing heat and rage with bombastic violence.

Hammer Man by MC Hammer
Here's how it started, a long time ago. The legend of the Hammer, and how it began to grow. He was given magical shoes, from a hip-hop mo-town dude. Together they had power, they stood up for what was right. But Gramps was getting old, and he couldn't keep up the fight. RIGHT! So Gramps and his granddaughter, they went out on the road to find the man they knew could tell who was worthy of the load. They met a guy named Stanley who was dancing every night. He helped the kids play everyday, his heart was out of sight. So Gramps opened up the bag, and took out the magical shoes. He set them on the ground and they soon began to groove. The shoes knew at once, they had finally found their man. They hopped right on his feet, and he became HAMMERMAN!
One Track Lover by Matt Berry
I'm a one track lover, down a two way lane. Drivin' fast down the highway, must've been insane. Cause the temperatures too high, traveling driving way too fast! And I knew our lovin', was too hot to last.
