Profile And Skills
|
Profile: Shou Karasugamori isn't a high school drop-out. He never went to high school in the first place. Born and raised in Lunarvale, these days he works with a temp agency, mainly doing a lot of odd jobs across the Five City Region. Those who know him well call him difficult to get along with and even angry--and they're hardly wrong with those assessments. Shou seems to approach the world as if he has something to prove in his life, leaving him with few he can really call friends as a result of his abrasive personality. The increasingly disaffected young man has fallen in with what some might term a 'bad crowd' of late, much to his parent's chagrin. Perhaps there's some truth to there being a black sheep like that in every family...

Equipment

- Weapon
Cheap Switchblade - Bought inexpensively from a mysterious back-street dealer. It's not very well made.
- Body
Grey Hoodie - Perfect for keeping warm on chilly days.
- Feet
Beat-up Sneakers - Old and comfortable, just the way they're meant to be. May smell a little.
- Accessory
Silver Earring - A simple and small silver hoop earring. It's supposed to create a tough appearance.

Contacts

- Mouth Off: "Oh, please, who do you think you're kidding? Like anyone really cares!"
- Taunt: "C'mon, get serious! I can fight better than that in my sleep!"
- Grudgingly Assist: "Fine! I'll give you a hand, but this better be worth it!"

NPCS Of Note
|
- Mau Karasugamori (The Lovers): Shou's older sister. A meddlesome young woman, or that's how he thinks of her. She is engaged to be married.
- Utau Karasugamori (The Sun): Shou's younger sister. Has always looked up to him.
|
Trivia
|
- Shou's birthname is Kakeru. Written as 翔, it means 'soar'. Thus his name in Japanese name order sounds just like the phrase 'karasu ga mori kakeru', which means 'crows soar in the forest'. Shou can be written with the same kanji as Kakeru, though Shou writes his name in katakana to dissuade people from thinking it could be read as 'soar'. Similarly, his siblings, Mau and Utau, are 'dance' and 'sing'. Their parents have a lot to answer for.
|
Combat Information
|
Shou is pretty much the definition of average. Yeah, he's a little faster on his feet and a little more durable, and a little less magically inclined and lucky, but such slants, as they exist, aren't particularly great.
Special: Don't Underestimate Me! - Shou insists that he is more than capable of handling this particular combat situation, and psyches himself up. His physical attack power and accuracy rise.

Persona Information and Resonance
|
"I am Thou, Thou art I. I am Darwin, he who may yet change the world. Trapped in chains of mine own, I await my transformation."
Charles Darwin is well-known as the naturalist who described a theory that has become known as 'evolution', though more properly would be termed 'modification by descent'. He also posited that because of this, all living organisms shared a common ancestry. However, this theory was put forth later in his life. As a young man, however, he was rather lazy and viewed as a slow learner; he had no particular focus in his life. His father despaired that he would ever make anything of himself, and the young Darwin spent much of his time with his friends or hunting. It was chance that saw him aboard the Beagle--by his own choice--and what he saw there in time became fuel for his theory.
