NAPHTALI MIDO
NICKNAME: "TAL" GENDER: MALE AGE: 20 BIRTHDAY: FEB. 19 SEXUALITY: GAY GUILD: ELYSIUM "Astronomy compels the soul to look upwards and leads us from this world to another." ~Plato | Special Characteristics: N/A PERSONALITY Freedom to live the life one wants to live. It's a luxury that a few people are allowed to have here in Fiore, but not many. Now one might think that having been born into a family who practically ruled over the black market would be allowed to do whatever he wanted, but they would be wrong. Due to such a strict upbringing, Naphtali appears to be a quiet and observant young man. He stands off to the side, mainly jotting down mental notes of those around him while trying not to attract the attention of others. He'll almost never speak up in front of a large group. Even so, this part of his personality comes off more so as stoicism than from a place of insecurity. Something that Naphtali is insecure about is his family. As much as Naphtali is against what his family stands for, he understands the power and influence that can come with the name. Giving that up just isn't an option when he can think of so many ways to use it to the advantage of the new world. The people he could save my convincing them to join the cause once Elysium takes over are just too many to pass up. So when he left to go follow the whispers of Elysium to his new found family, he left under the guise of university. Naphtali does his best to hide his current actions from the Mido family, even going as far as to hide his face under a round pink bunny mask during any and all guild outings. And Despite his lack of participation in conversation, Naphtali loves the company of his guild mates and is a dedicated worker. He doesn't agree with all of Elysium's action, but their goal of reforming the world is a dream that he holds dear to his heart, so he is willing to overlook the occasional bloodshed and vulgarity. And it's a good thing that he loves the company of others, because he is almost never alone thanks to his Shinigami, Paresse. Due to an ancient pack between the Mido family and the Shinigami, Naphtali was granted his own personal assistant, a Shinigami names Paresse. She is a vulgar, blood loving murder junky who doesn't give two f***s about Naphtali and Elysiums plan. However, she understands that she is bound to Naphtali, and since she doesn't care about the Mido family either she decided to strike a deal. Paresse, and the rest of the Shinigami who have been forced into the "Shinigami Protection" lineage, is not capable of murder. So, in exchange for not blabbing to Naphtali's family and for her occasional helping hand in a fight, Naphtali must help her commit a murder every 2 weeks. Not being a fan of meaningless murder, Naphtali tries to get this out of the way on guild mission. Favorite Color: Pink Likes:

APPEARANCE Height: 6" Weight: 170 lbs Hair Color: Orange Eye Color: Green Skin Tone: Pale white Guild Tattoo: Left tricep Guild Tattoo Color: Rose pink Attire: Despite loving cute things and the color pink, Naphtali tends to roam around in a sleeveless shirt and big, puffy black and brown pants. He wears black fingerless gloves on his hands and black steel toed boots on his feet. When he leaves to go on missions, he can be seen sporting a long black cloak with a pink teddybear pin as a button, and a cartoon rabbit mask covering his face. Of course, these are not the kinds of cloths he can wear around his parents. When visiting his family, Naphtali knows that he must keep it classy.
HISTORY The Mido Family has worked in the shadows of Fiore for generations, doing whatever jobs they could to gain power, money, and influence. Of course, no one can gain this influence on their own. Hundreds of hears ago, a deal was struck between the Mido family and the Shinigami, entering them into the "Shinigamis' Protection" lineage. Ever since, the first born child of each generation has born into a pact with a Shinigami. Naphtali was born the first of 7 to the head of the family, meaning that as far back as he can remember he has had Paresse standing besides him, filling his head with cursing and vulgarity. Of course this might explain his hatred of curse words and murder, but there was no complaining about the "helpful" Shinigami in the family. With the help of these beings, the family was capable of achieving the power they sought out to achieve. With that power, however, also came a strict code of conduct. The do's and don'ts of being a part of the family are costly, and one step out of line could be your last. Naphtali was taught his entire life exactly what to eat, wear, say, and behave. Naphtali quickly learned just how to keep his mouth shut and his ears wise open. Although the family started years and years ago as a family of power hungry assassins, they have grown to be more of a corporate family. Under the disguise of a banking corporation, they for-see many of the trades that go on in the magical black market of Fiore. As such, his family was impressed to hear about his plans on moving out to study business at a university out of town. In actuality, he was running off to join Elysium. He had heard rumors about them, whispers from his families body guards, and he always liked what he heard. On his way to the guild, it occurred to Naphtali that he would probably need the help of more than just a bitchy shinigami that he could only summon for a couple minutes at a time. So, he waltzed his way into the first magic shop he saw, and purchased his first magical item. A key to the Celestial Spirit World. |
