Now it is nothing more but an archive of old roleplay threads and a place for nostalgic members to catch up with each other.

Character Description - Please keep in mind that you are allowed to add as much detail as you want to your character

Kita Hototo [large image]

-age

23 years

- physical appearance (e.g. hair color/cut, glasses?, height, etc.)

188 centimetres (or six feet, two inches) tall, lanky, pasty, shaggy black hair, dark blue eyes. He has a strong jaw and a slightly hooked nose (despite his reference picture above), with pronounced cheekbones and lips that are always curved into a slight scowl. His hands are large but rather delicate for his size, with long, slender fingers.

- character traits

To make up for his considerable height, he often slouches. He does nothing of interest with his hair (assuming he's not going to a concert or participating in an event), has never had a tan in his life, and in most ways looks like the kind of person you would want to avoid for fear of being kept after class and/or stuffed in a locker. And that's exactly the way he likes it.

Rather antisocial and quiet, Kita likes to keep to himself. He has few friends and a great many people that wouldn't be sorry to hear he'd moved out of the country. He acts almost solely on his own desires and doesn't have much of a conscience to guilt or heartstrings to tug, though he is protective of those he considers close to himself. He's a very physical person, and rarely talks if actions can be used instead.

- Friends, family, and other close people:

Mother: Had little Hototo with her previous husband, separated from him when Hototo was barely one, and moved to Japan, where she met her current husband and married him shortly after. Is a loving, encouraging mother, if a bit immature and distracted with her love for her younger husband.

Father: Adopted Hototo when he married his mother, and has been a supportive and gentle father. He treats Hototo as his own son, and loves his older wife dearly. Though more mature than her, he's just as hopelessly romantic, and the two are often seen acting like embarrassing newlyweds in public. Kita Hototo loves his parents, but for this reason is rarely seen out and about with them.

Extended family: The grandmothers and aunts and uncles and cousins on his adoptive father's side whom he acquired after his parents' whirlwind romance. Some of them approve of the little semi-dysfunctional family. Most of them pretend to be unrelated.

Nakamura Kaede: His self-proclaimed piano-rival and arch-nemesis, Nakamura was an entrant in a competition with him. After putting her in her place (quite soundly, he often reminds her) and winning, he then discovered that they would be attending the same music academy- the illustrious Seiso. He has been unable to rid himself of her ever since (even finding himself now working as a professor alongside her at their once-high-school), and becomes less and less inclined to try. He thinks her an amusing break from the drudgery of daily life, and finds no end to the delight he can reap from annoying her. She could be called his only friend (but never by him).

Sample RP (>=10 lines):


Rain. Rain was such a two-faced thing. On the one hand, it was wonderful when watching out your window- seeing the many kids and teachers scurry like bumbling insects to escape the damp when it suddenly came pouring down in fourth period was always good for a chuckle. On the other hand, it was wet, and Kita was a person naturally disinclined to running. Or sprinting, or trotting, or speed-walking. In fact, his natural gait was more of a... Casual amble. And he could never quite choose which to give up- his dignity, by galloping around through the pouring rain like a dip, or the pleasant sensation of being dry. In the end, he usually figured he'd still be soaking wet if he ran, and so took his sweet time.

Today the skies were trying especially hard to drown him where he stood, and he sauntered even slower than usual (as a display of rebellion, and to let everyone and anyone Up There know just how annoyed he was), but today the two-faced rain decided to show its more pleasant façade, as well; today, Nakamura Kaede was standing in the dumping rain by the bus stop, looking every bit the drowned rat. Her fluffy hair had been flattened to her skull, her clothes sopping and dripping buckets, and her neat little school shoes sat soaking in a puddle of murky, dirty street water.

"Fine weather we're having," he commented casually as he passed. She growled something unintelligible. He was only mildly successful at hiding his smile.

Not such a bad day, really.
