Oda Nobunaga

Nobunaga Oda wrote:Name: Nobunaga Oda
Gender: Male
Age: Appears 27
Birthday: 06/23
Sexuality: Straight
Special Characteristics: None

Personality: Nobunaga is a very proud man, and while most would call him eccentric, or even insane or a fool, he holds a fierce intelligence and ambition. He once, long ago in an age of myth united Midi in an age of strife through unconventional tactics, including forgiving and even hiring his his enemies.

He was, however, betrayed just shy of achieving the first step of his ambitions, trapped in a temple that was burned down around him. He was thought dead, and despite his achievements faded into obscurity, few remembered the old stories.

In Battle:
Nobunaga was a fierce warrior, preferring the nagamaki, a blade similar to an odatchi, but with a handle as long as the blade, as well as the teppo, an early firearm. He was a brutal tactician, using unconventional tactics to defeat and intimidate his men.

Outside of Battle:
Nobunaga had a rather unique personality, one that often lead to others calling him a fool. He enjoyed dancing, and often would be found wandering the castle town, having slipped away from his retainers. He was loud, and boisterous, and while fair, was terrifying in his wrath, having once turned a mountain temple complex into a bloodbath.

Under Another Leader:
Nobunaga is far too ambitious to ever serve another, rather, he has plans to build his own army, whether as a new guild, or reviving the once mighty Oda clan.

As a Leader:
Nobunaga was a man who inspired fear, awe, and unwavering loyalty from his subjects. He cared about the common people, and heavily employed the use of ashigaru, and ensured that they were highly trained and given good equipment. He was a master of gun based tactics, devastating his enemies in ambushes and even open battles. People who see past his foolish facade are drawn to his natural charisma and shear ambition.

Nobunaga seemed to be utterly fearless, and would lead from the front, never making his soldiers do that which he himself was not willing to do.
Likes:
Music and dancing.
Combat, while he hates war, he revels in combat.
Laughing. Few things struck fear and awe into the hearts of men than the laugh that made him become known as the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven after annihilating a temple complex. It was said that his laugh echoed across the mountains.
Dislikes:
Bloodshed without reason. He believes that if one should fight, that they should fight for a cause that they truly believe in.
Foolish self sacrifice, he was heavily against seppuku, and prefered for his men to redeem themselves in life.
Those that will betray their friends and family. He had been on the receiving end more times than he could ever count. As far as attempts on his life, the temple was the 999th.
Motivations:
Pure raw, unwavering ambition.
Bringing a world of peace.
Learning the fate of his betrayer.
Fears:
A world of endless war.
Fire. After being betrayed, and having a temple burned around him has left a scar on his psyche, making him liable to break out into a rage around uncontrolled fire.
Never achieving his ambitions. He seeks to not only control Midi, but to conquer and unit all of Earthland, and one day, beyond to other worlds.
Learning that Tomoe Gozan is still alive, and trying to feed him. She was a lethal cook.
