Hideki

mari20 wrote:Name: Hideki
Gender: Man
Age: 27
Birthday: February 1
Sexuality: Might be gay
Special Characteristics:

Personality:
▹ Suspicious: Distrustful in general, Hideki rarely pours his heart out to anyone. From time to time there are calculated moments of apparent vulnerability. Usually he is only thinking about how someone else can betray him. Praise and words that are meant to appease him only work part of the time due to his heavy dislike of taking others' words at face value.
▹ Dishonest: Tells a lot of lies. He tends to mislead people whenever possible especially when it's personal information about himself. As long as he won't get caught and have relevant repercussions, he will fabricate every story under the sun. Part of this comes from being a mage in a minority and concealing his identity.
▹ Greedy: Really likes money. Wealth can of course come in multiple forms, and that includes power, property, and actual currency. Hideki doesn't necessarily care which he acquires, only that he amasses as much as possible.
▹ Volatile: Unyielding in some ways, but in other aspects of his personality he can be unstable. Hideki also suffers from a condition that resulted in partially fragmented personality. The result is that expression can vary depending on circumstance. He also has a tendency to stab others in the back if he believes it will garner a good result.
▹ Ambitious: He doesn't always need the spotlight, but he does believe success is mandatory. Competitive and demanding when it comes to himself. Hideki does not expect much of most people, and it would actually be a sign of care if he believes someone to be competent. However he is practical enough to realize he is not currently the best in all things. That doesn't mean he lacks desire to reach that apex.
▹ Egocentric: At the end of the day, Hideki truly believes he is better than other people in many respects. He also focuses mostly on his own self-interest and serves his own needs before others'. At the same time, he has a sense of responsibility in certain regards. Hideki thinks that he has done better for himself than many people would do for themselves if put in the same boat.
▹ Lonely: He lacks the ability to form a genuine connection with many people. This has led to him remaining only in the company of himself much of the time. Rather than being indicative of a preference for solo activity, it shows his incapability of entertaining a lot of conversations. He can manage to be polite most of the time, but inside and often out, he remains distant and lonely.
▹ Traumatized: Part of his practicality is undermined by the deeply set trauma that disallow him to always make one hundred percent logical decisions. He is led by the scars of his past in some ways. Although he tries to make decisions based on possible outcome, the fear of undergoing the same trauma can get to him at times.
▹ Understanding: From birth, he has some physical disadvantages. In order to overcome these, he studied harder and worked harder in his opinion at least. In accordance with his own actions, he believes that others can do the same. He also knows that there are many disadvantaged people and that they may need resources to overcome those flaws. However that doesn't mean he won't weigh with a cost benefit analysis whether or not he believes they should be provided those resources.

Likes:

• Wealth: Money, connections, and power can pave the way. Sincere efforts should be able to be measured and thought of in a concrete way to understand whether someone is genuine or not. In Hideki's view, a person's labor has a value regardless of what they do. If those results and values cannot be converted freely, they may be less than they appear.
  
• Resourceful People: Despite any manipulative and selfish tendencies Hideki likes people who work hard and do well.
  
• Animals: Especially cats, Hideki believes that despite how useless they can be animals have a lot of benefits. They offer emotional support but more importantly can be trained and remain unnoticed in many ways that human figures cannot. As a person who lacks empathy in some ways, he also likes animals because they do not have the same value of life placed upon them as humans tend to. They can be smart but also will generally not betray him or connive against him.
  

Dislikes:

• Public Eye: There are benefits to having the attention of media such as news. Hideki has found that there are many more disadvantages, including disability to move around freely. Considering he is not always operating within the boundaries of the law, he dislikes public attention.
  
• Pandering and Prejudice: Sometimes he finds it is necessary to flatter people. Hideki does not enjoy these activities, even if he is familiar with it. Likewise he finds it tiresome for people to attempt to flatter him. He also dislikes many preconceived notions that are prejudicial such as homophobia, sexism, racism, and more. Others he understands the root of them but thinks people should generally be open-minded and allow logic to take precedence.
  
• Self-Sacrificial Activity: Hideki is of the opinion that certain individuals are more suited to be fodder than others. That's just the way of the world; not everyone has the guts it takes to survive. Some would also feel better knowing they gave their life for a cause. Not Hideki.
  

Motivations:

• Magical Improvements: Mostly to himself and for his own benefit but also for everyone. This is not separated by boundaries of state, nation, country, or any territory like that. The only time Hideki would care is if allowing these magical improvements to fall into hands of specific people who will massively disrupt things. Although it would be nice to start with his homeland, Desierto, and increase the magical community and prowess there, it is of course not limited by border.
  
• History: There is much to be learned from past mistakes. His focus of course is the future and the improvement of his own and others' quality of life, in that order naturally. In order to avoid repeating errors he believes one should study history. Also it's just an enjoyment of his. He seeks to know history not relegated only to his own nation's.
  
• Health: It would be nice to find a way to extend his life without a downside. Currently, he has a method of preserving his life and transferring his consciousness to another container. However, it would be better to find a way of immortality utilizing magic and without as many downsides. He also desires to find a method of healing his own body and others in order to decrease many deficiencies in people. This also includes balancing people who have mental illnesses and increasing their potential in Hideki's eyes.
  

Fears:

• Control: Hideki tries to remain composed the majority of the time, however he can feel anxious or worried when it comes to losing control. Both over himself: his emotions and actions, and others. He also is afraid of being controlled and has taken certain precautions. Preventative measures aside there is still that possibility, and he hates it.
  
• Impossible Obstacles: In a world full of magic and various forms of power that function similarly he hates the idea of being sequestered to certain choices based on magic boundaries and road blocks. Though he has physical and mental boundaries that he is so far unable to cross, the idea of having magical ones bothers him more.
  
• Loss: Mostly losing his life but also the loss of property and much of what he holds dear. Hideki also holds a lot of trepidation when it comes to great loss of human life even if he is not included. Just like most things, lives hold value in a way that may or may not be able to be measured. He can also fear loss of power and resources in other ways. Major loss always includes a disruption to current economy and social states, which is often undesirable.
  

General Appearance

Height: 5'10"
Weight: Average
Hair Color: Black-Brown
Eye Color: Brown/Silver/Gold
Skin Tone: Light-Medium Tan
Appearance: Honestly Hideki has taken more pains to appear put together than he would admit to anyone. He has an understanding that people instinctually approve of others if they look trustworthy. Then their actions can contradict their appearance or further serve to solidify it. Normally Hideki wears suits if he is functioning in any business sense. He has casual clothes too but doesn't favor streetwear. Instead he wears plainer shirts and pants in color blocks that are clean and sturdy. His normal outfit includes a rather fancy suit in brown and black with lighter tanner brown and silver accents. His hair is deceptively short looking but actually extends a decent amount but is in a somewhat subtle ponytail. In stature Hideki is not overly impressive. He is around average height and build and is not focused on physical fighting. For those reasons his musculature is not exaggerated whatsoever. Hideki prefers not to wear revealing clothing. He hails from Desierto, and his clothing somewhat reflects that in the sense that it is deceptively covering but very lightweight and breathable.
