Personality: Jupiter is a kind, happy man. At least most of the time. He finds joy in the little things in life, whether it’s the shining sun breaking through a blanket of clouds or a ladybug landing gentle on a leaf. It doesn’t take a lot to make Jupiter smile, and that’s always a good trait. However, due to his ambitious goal, he feels the constant weight of his responsibilities pushing the corners of his mouth into a frown. It doesn’t take a lot to make him happy because, without those small things that lighten his spirit, he would struggle with his sadness far too often.

Jupiter likes to be conversational. Meeting new people not only connects them but he gets an insight to their background. In a guild, a place where people from all different types are mixed together, it would be difficult not to take advantage of that to learn more about different people of the world. Jupiter would usually intimidate people with his unusually large size, but his bright smile tends to send a more friendly message. He's always direct with whom he talks to and rarely shies away from people. However, that straight-forward attitude is the reason for his socially-awkward nature. He loves talking to people, but he doesn’t have the best social skills either. Unfortunately, that combination results in heavy loneliness.

But there are benefits to his direct nature as well. Jupiter always sees the best in people. He gives them the benefit of the doubt when their actions might seem questionable, and he has a talent for nudging people toward the light. He is a very passionate man with a love for all people he meets. He doesn’t hold those emotions back, either, and for that reason, Jupiter tends to leave footprints where he walks and an impact on the people he passes.

On some rare days, all of the misery and frustration Jupiter has would erupt from him and even then, a smile is difficult to pull off. But, as always, he takes advantage of his size and rams through those walls of anguish. It was painful but not impossible. To get rid of those excess negative emotions, he enjoys finding a beautiful, remote location and relaxing there. Sometimes, he might accidentally take a nap but that would only make the experience more pleasant. He just needs a break to see the light in the world once more, and when he does, a smile will come more easily.

Jupiter always keeps his head straight and screwed on tightly. He loves to enjoy himself, but that doesn’t mean that he loses track of himself and his goals. His mind is always calm and direct, clear of all distractions. He never gets side-tracked but might take a break and pull over only to start back up the car and keep driving. Life goes on and the trick is to stay right behind it. He tries not to linger on his experiences, both good and bad. Sometimes, he might dawdle a little longer than he should, but he always moves on. There’s always more to look forward to than there is behind.

There are 3 typical classes of combat-based people: melee fighters, mages, and release-focused fighters. Jupiter's fighting style very easily falls into the second category, for the vast majority of his power is derived from his spells. However, that isn’t to say that he lacks close-combat skills. He specializes in magic, but Himitsu’s physical combat and martial arts still contribute to his strength.

Let’s begin by examining a fully-restrained Jupiter. When he truly isn’t taking a fight seriously, Jupiter doesn’t even use magic. He engages the enemy solely with his hand to hand combat. In truth, Jupiter is an expert with a martial arts, but he chooses to use magic instead for one key reason. Jupiter having being raised in a strong household has been deemed a mastery strategist and fighter. Having the ability to keep calm in almost all fighting situations. Even with his distinctive personality.

Likes:

Model Citizen- Not all people are up to his standard, but, overall, the idea of being a hero to all words is pretty appealing. Especially after being rescued by a man from the top guild, he had aspired to train and become apart of one as well. There is no better way to lead a new life.

Humans - People in general, really. While in a guild, he has the pleasure of meeting several people that would eventually leave and be replaced by new strangers. He got to talk to many of these people and tended to like most of them. Even random people would love to stop by near him and have a brief, pleasant conversation. Sometimes, he likes to just observe the world.

Solitude - Peace and quiet. He got a lot of that at the home and he can still use more. The only difference is that while he stayed at the house, he was a "prisoner" in the building. Now as a guild member, he is free to explore worlds and enjoy the scenery. Those beautiful places, most of which lie in the human worlds, are the best places to relax and enjoy your privacy.

Dislikes:

Anger - Anger is such an easy emotion to give in to. However, it’s temptations lead away from any and all positivity. Temporarily inhibits rationality and leads to people getting hurt. Anger must be controlled.

Indifference - Indifference in a casual context is not sinful in anyway. However, indifference in the face of important matters is disgraceful. When it comes to someone’s life or wellbeing, whether you know the individual or not, indifference is unacceptable.

Cynicism - Some individuals pride themselves on their miraculous intellectual ability to see the evil truth in reality. They automatically assume the worst in the world around them without giving the people in it a chance to show them otherwise. Cynicism is a dark mental state at the open to even darker roads.

Motivations:

Family - Jupiter's family is what motivates him overall as he knows that if he fails them he won't achieve true peace in the world. Due to this he does whatever in order to make his family better.

Guild - Having joined a Guild, Jupiter does whatever it takes to make his guild one of the top as he feels that if they don't become known throughout the world then people would come to know them as a dark guild.

Himself - Jupiter feels that he isn't strong enough to achieve what he needs to do. This motivates him to an extreme.
Fears:

Failure - Jupiter's greatest fear is failure. He wants nothing more than to be the leader of his family and guild, and he is still afraid of failing both. He wants to protect the innocent from violence and evil, but each death around him tears him apart on the inside and each life he saves is accompanied with the fear that he won’t be able to save another. He wants to hold onto his idealistic dream of a peaceful world with no killing or deceit, but he fears that he’ll fail to make that dream a reality.

Death- Jupiter knows that when the day comes when he is on his death bed. He would have failed to do what he had intended to do his whole life.

Traveling- Even though liking to travel around the world, Jupiter hates and fears all sorts of travel no matter the type.

General Appearance


Height: 6'5"
Weight: 203 Pounds
Hair: Red/Long
Eyes: Mostly brown but seems to turn hazel and green
Skin Tone: Tan
Appearance: Jupiter stands out in a crowd, as most 6’5” individuals do. However, let’s not diminish the significance of his size in his general appearance. Because of his height, wide shoulders, and long limbs, Jupiter naturally towers over those around him. Therefore, to those who do not know him very well, he might come off as inherently intimidating and powerful. While his large frame and body might give off such an impression, that notion could not be further from the truth.

The reality of Jupiter's character is far more present in his kind face. By kind face, I do not mean that he always bears a friendly expression. Regardless of whether Jupiter is smiling, frowning, furrowing his brow, or wrinkling his nose, his face can always be described with that same word: kind. Perhaps it’s a feature of his delicately defined cheekbones or his gently rounded head. Maybe it’s an intangible quality of warmth and amiability.

Most people of his family are known to possess beautiful blonde hair, serving as a characteristic for their family. Jupiter, however, is an exception. Due to the process that saved his life and gave him a "new body", his appearance shifted as well. Instead of golden locks, his curvy, straight hair takes on the deep red of a blood. It arranges itself in orderly disorder, forming networks of intertwined strands that miraculously harmonize into larger units. His hair falls casually down his forehead, ending just above his eyes in the front most of the time. From behind, it forms a soft blanket covering the nape of his neck and flowing all the way down to the end of his back.

For the most part, the rest of Jupiter's facial features are uninteresting. His nose is completely average. It is neither too large or too small, too wide or too narrow. His ears, which usually hide behind his hair, are standard as well. The man’s chin is not too prominent and defined, but it does present itself modestly. His eyebrows are on the thin side, but they too are hidden by the hanging strands of Jupiter's hair.

What is interesting, however, are Jupiter's eyes. Eyes are always the cliche. They are a window into the soul. They portray emotion. They characterize the person. But that’s the thing about cliches; they’re often true. Himitsu’s hazel eyes are unlike any others. The dark circumference of his eyes take on a wood-like hue. However, the color shifts as it comes closer to his pupils to a light brown, much like a chestnut when held to the light of the morning sun.

But the color is not as perplexing as the way his eyes understand effortlessly. The truth of the matter is that Jupiter cannot just look at a person and get them, but that’s not how his eyes work. They look past all of one’s actions, words, and attitude. They make the biggest and most challenging assumption anyone can possibly make: Jupiter's eyes assume the best. They look at somebody and see the spark of light in the corner of their soul despite the raging darkness that shrouds it. He has faith in people, and the warmth of his gaze reflects that faith.

The rest of Jupiter's body is proportional to his height. In other words, his hands are big. His legs and arms are long. His shoulders are wide and chest is large. However, these physical attributes are all average. Jupiter isn’t particularly muscular, although he isn’t notably thin and skinny either. He lacks noticeably scars despite all of the battles he had fought in and conflicts that he had been a part of. However, his body is young relative to his entire life, so that’s understandable.

This section by briefly touching upon Jupiter's attire. As a devout mage, he dresses in traditional magician garbs with respect to his position. Once before, Jupiter had modified his clothes slightly to stand out from the crowd.
