Kyo Enda   Status Full Name 遠田暁 (えんだきょう) Nature Shadow-Possessed Arcana XIX - The Sun REVERSE Shadow Ghost and the Darkness Gender Male Age 20 Height 6'0" Hair Blond Eyes Amber Date of Birth May 27th, 1991, 10:15 AM Sign Gemini(Sun)/Scorpio(Moon)/Leo(Asc) Guardian Dragon Gold Dragon Voice Actor Ryotaro Okiayu Quote "I will do what you won't. That's why I will always win." Profile and Skills Kyo Enda recently transferred to the prestigious Fra Mauro University from Sumaru University; which many say should have been his destination in the first place, given his impeccable grades and track record at Seven Sisters, where he served as student council president and archery team captain. There are some who say that his decision to finally leave Sumaru University behind stems from his breakup with Miwa Saitou, to whom he was intensely devoted; others maintain the highly-intelligent young man just finally felt the need for a greater challenge. To the world at large, he remains unremarkable save for a growing reputation as a prodigy in the areas of mathematics and engineering; however, those tapped into more unconventional grapevines may hear much more sinister things about him.

Trivia Kyo can be clinically diagnosed as a sociopath. You can guess how well all his social links are going to turn out!! Kyo is fond of the color white, which is highly inauspicious given the connotations white has in Japanese culture. But he doesn't care!! Most people detect Resonance through an ineffable sixth sense. Some people register Resonance through their sense of smell, or their sense of hearing. Kyo detects Resonance through his sense of taste. Usually he does this the same way snakes taste air. ...Sometimes he does it much more personally. Kyo comes from an upper middle-class family, albeit a broken one. His parents recently finalized a divorce, with his mother taking custody of his twin Akatsuki, and his father retaining custody of him. His father is a workaholic salaryman who is almost never at home: this makes for a healthy bank account, but a very out-of-control son. Kyo is actually a very good archer, which was highly ironic back when his Persona was still Achilles. Kyo is extremely intelligent, with an excellent intuitive grasp of most things. He is able to learn concepts and skills far faster than the norm, though his short attention span often results in him losing interest in whatever he's learned as soon as he masters it. The above, coupled with a sociopathic nature that spends the majority of its time in isolated self-absorption, means Kyo has learned a wide variety of skills and information in his copious free time. Other than fluency in the obvious Japanese and English, he has learned Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Russian 'for fun,' at varying levels of proficiency. He may have a motive to start messing with Chechen next. He has toyed on some level with most instruments, though his preference is for the piano. Despite all this, his basic nature makes him absolutely AWFUL at chess and other games that tend to reward conservative strategy and a healthy sense of risk vs. reward. Kyo transferred to Fra Mauro after doing his first year at Sumaru. While at Sumaru his major was biomedical engineering; due to a shift in interest, he took and obliterated the entrance exams to get into Fra Mauro's six-year medical program instead. He devotes some of his time to assisting professors in medical research: particularly cancer research. Kyo can cook. WHAT he tends to cook is another matter entirely. Tallies EATEN: Miwa Saitou (Shadow) At least six NPCs.

Patterson gave several figures, claiming that there were 135 victims... Shadow There is nothing like the fear a man-eater brings. They own the night, and kill so quickly. Kyo willingly accepted his Shadow after being pushed into the Inaba Midnight Channel. It took a form reflective both of his nature as a sociopath-- a type of human seemingly engineered by nature specifically to prey upon other humans-- and of his aversion to being alone. The two man-eating lions of Tsavo, fancifully termed 'the Ghost' and 'the Darkness,' attained notoriety for-- over the span of nine months-- preying near-exclusively on railway workers constructing a bridge over the Tsavo River: attacking, killing, and eating countless men. After traps, fires, and thorn hedges failed to stop or deter them, hundreds of workers fled rather than be devoured, halting work until the lions were finally hunted out and shot. SHAPE: A pair of joined black lions, which roll and move together as if magnetically bonded. Restless and never still, they twist and prowl over and under and through one another: but they always touch, and never part fully from one another even for a moment. They may not even be capable of doing so. Like most lions of the Tsavo region, they lack long manes; what mane they do have forms a short, bristling ruff about their faces and necks. Shadow and darkness trail from these short manes and sweep from the ends of their tails. In its doubled state, the Shadow stands about eight feet at its shoulders and twenty feet long; the paired lions are also capable of combining their mass and temporarily sliding together into a single leonine form, which sacrifices some of its mobility and raw mutilating power in favor of gaining an even greater size. RESONANCE: A predator, lurking hidden in tall grass, waiting for something young and tender to wander past. Notable Social Links O - THE FOOL None. I - THE MAGICIAN None. II - THE HIGH PRIESTESS Benihime Asano - Kyo first noticed her fascination with him-- and her hatred for Miwa Saitou-- in his Midnight Channel dungeon, where she was entirely sympathetic to him, and spiteful to all others around them. Since then, he has cultivated her adoration of him, readily using her willingness to do anything he asks her to. III - THE EMPRESS Mitsuru Kirijo - Kyo hated Mitsuru, at first. Then, he MET Mitsuru, and their Personas (Achilles and Penthesilea) resonated. Hatred faded into a sort of disturbed obsession, and then into the desire to possess her. He has assaulted her several times already towards this end. Ever since his imprisonment in Kirijo Labs, Mitsuru has tried to teach and reform him. He knows what she is trying to do, and finds it a fun game to string her idealism along. IV - THE EMPEROR None. V - THE HIEROPHANT EELS VI - THE LOVERS None. VII - THE CHARIOT None. VIII - JUSTICE Katsuya Suou - gotta KILL this guy IX - THE HERMIT Izo Imaizumi - At the outset, there was no one Kyo found more satisfying and entertaining to drive to the brink-- whether through taunts, or the simple assailing of Izo's logic. His hatred of Izo only worsened when he realized Yisa had a lingering regard for him-- and when Izo threatened to show her things that would cause her no longer to need him. However, during Kyo's brief period as a normal person after the SHU, Izo ironically became the closest to a friend Kyo had. The feels became even more complicated when, in the course of doing Kyo a huge favor by "trying to help Yisa out despite the warnings of all common sense," Izo fell into a gruesome coma; and now that Kyo is once again a psychotic sociopath, the feels have graduated to "super extraordinarily extra-complicated." X - THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE None. XI - STRENGTH Jason R. Butler - It's complicated. Jason was the reason Kyo was put into the SHU and made normal for a brief period. But for better or worse, he is the closest to a paternal figure Kyo has. Enoha Koinose - this woman just makes it really hard to hate her Masahiko Irie - What a mouthy douchebag. Kyo believes Masahiko to be borderline delusional in his high opinion of himself. XII - THE HANGED MAN Tohya Kidzuki - The hatred has historically run deep between Kyo and Tohya. one could almost say hatoful XIII - DEATH Seiichi Miyamoto - Whatever dealings they might have had in the past are dust now. They fell apart when Seiichi recanted his own malignant ways. Mitsuru was protected from Kyo by Seiichi several times. This was grounds for Kyo to declare war on the pianist, going so far as to twist Akari Hoshi-- a little-sister figure of Seiichi-- to turn on him. Following an attempt on Kyo's life by Seiichi, Kyo tore out Seiichi's left eye with a knife. XVI - TEMPERANCE Miwa Saitou - Kyo's ex-girlfriend. Unfortunately, ever since Yisa intimated to him that Miwa had never loved the TRUE him-- only an image she had created of what she wanted him to be-- what lingering feelings he has are mingling with his growing resentment for what he perceives as Miwa's 'years of leading him on.' Making matters worse, Kyo has entirely replaced Miwa with Yisa as the subject of his affections. Naomi Suzuno - Kyo recognizes Naomi as perhaps one of his more dangerous opponents, primarily due to her sheer unflappability. Though his irrationality and twisted logic have kept her at bay for a long time, she has begun to try and pry apart his insanity in an attempt to know and predict him. Her eternal pride and defiance clash harshly with his need to control and dominate, making her consistently rise to his challenges and fight his demands. When her Shadow took her captive, Kyo served both as Naomi's jailor and unexpected protector. He still periodically tries to coax her to hang out with him and Yisa-- if more for Yisa's benefit than his own, given Yisa and Naomi were childhood friends. The the fact Tatsuya is her boyfriend, though, makes that a little touchy. XV - THE DEVIL Daisuke Itami: Kyo and Daisuke have a little bet going regarding the human race. If Kyo can make his vision reality-- that humankind is nothing more than a pointless race, with no purpose left but to be put out of its misery-- he wins. If not, then Daisuke wins... XVI - THE TOWER Mai Namikawa - Kyo attacked her once he became aware she and Naomi were close. Since then, Mai has just kept on piling on the reasons for him to hate her: foremost among them being her loving story to him, while he was stuck in a Kirijo cell, of how Miwa would abandon him to make a family with some other man. XVII - THE STAR None. XVIII - THE MOON Akari Hoshi - Similar to Mai, Kyo targeted Akari as a known 'valued friend' of someone he hates even more: Seiichi Miyamoto. Her naive, trusting, and gullible nature has proven useful on multiple occasions, the most recent-- and potent-- of which was his Stockholming of her subsequent to her belief that she had lost Tatsuya Sudou. Training her to love him, he immediately turned her on Seiichi Miyamoto. She's gone back to Seiichi since, as she didn't take Kyo's maiming of the pianist too well. XIX - THE SUN Tatsuya Suou - Tatsuya sees right through Kyo's idealized facade to the dangerous, sociopathic truth. This irritates Kyo immensely; not to mention the fact that Tatsuya bluntly stated that he'd take Miwa away from Kyo 'for her safety.' Now that Tatsuya's actually followed through and DONE it-- leaving a scar behind on Kyo's chest, where his attack cut deeply-- Kyo has decided to hurt Tatsuya in any way possible, and to undermine any of his efforts he can. In many ways Kyo has evolved into an inverted mirror of Suou. The vicious hatred between them is completely mutual. Tatsuya Sudou - Kyo started out largely neutral on Sudou, as an individual who has done him a favor or two and whose goals don't immediately interfere with-- and perhaps even further-- Kyo's own. His indifference turned to enmity once Sudou harmed Yisa, leading Kyo to attempt to kill Sudou in reprisal: causing a good amount of psychological trauma in the process. XX - JUDGMENT Yisa Taimiev - Sa daakhar. His master. His prisoner. His missing soul. His wife. ↕ Soundtrack Darkangel - VNV Nation In your dream you see me clear I have no restraint, no fear Powerless I watched from faces I'd assumed. My purpose set. My will defined. Caress the air. Embrace the skies. Escape the sorrow and restraint of mortal cities. Give me time I will be clear. Given time you'll understand What possesses me to right what you have suffered. I'm in this mood because of scorn. I'm in a mood for total war. To the darkened skies once more and ever onward. ↕
