Akire Ishigami (completed)

Name:Akire Ishigami
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Birthday: 09/19
Sexuality: Straight
Special Characteristics: He has many scars along his body from the fights in his arena; most notable are the scars on his right shoulder and chest. He has two large impact scars on his back as well.  The tattoo reading “S-0018” is still above his left eyebrow.

Personality:
When not fighting Akire is generally a kind person with a love for sweet things.  He enjoys nature and all aspects of it. It helps calm him down and remind him that life isn’t all about fighting, which he tends to find himself in a lot more than he’d like.  He used to carve wooden figures but gave that up once he was able to conquer the demon inside him. The demon that was born from the intense hatred for those who turned him into a monster. He traded in his knifes and got some daggers that could be more suitable for his arena fighting style. While wondering he found the remnants of another similar operation to his own. That’s where he met the shape shifting water dragon known as Wiz. It took some convincing but Akire managed to convince the dragon to adventure around the world with him. With Wiz’s shape shifting ability they both constantly spar against each other in order to hone their skills. They have gone one many adventures together since they first meeting, including trips to snow covered lands and the technological lands, they’ve seen many sights and are thinking about the possibility of finding a guild and staying there. Wiz once spouted some nonsense about finding a good girl and raising a family, but Akire declined that option saying there was still stuff he wanted to see and do, so he’d continue his little trek. But the idea of a guild did appeal a little.

During combat Akire treats a fight like it should be treated based on the circumstances. Arena fights are treated either like sparring practice where he will hone his skills against opponents or as spectacles to be watched and enjoyed by the people in the stands. He has a gladiatorial outlook on fights, “death or glory” seem to be his motto during fights. He always has a determined look in his eyes no matter the fight what the circumstances. During normal fights he’ll use the weapons he obtained and his magic in conjuncture to fend off foes. When Wiz is involved it opens up more options for a strategic attack and Akire utilizes that greatly.  He’s glad that he no longer has the urge to kill when fighting and thus can go full out in fights without needing to worry about killing the opponent on accident or involving innocent bystanders.  When he finds a good fight he tends to get riled up and get really into it. Wanting to fight more and more, this might be a left over remnant of the demon inside him he conquered but there is no way of knowing. In impossible situations he’ll merge with Wiz to increase his combat power, but these are last ditch efforts that he only uses during dire circumstances. Other times, during unprovoked attacks he’ll tend to try and reason with the attacker to get out of fights, if not using hallucinations to create an opening to escape from the area before hiding. Other times those unprovoked attacks will be met with retaliations.

Personality:
When not fighting Akire is generally a kind person with a love for sweet things. He tends to be found wandering around in forests or plains and generally enjoying nature. He has a pair of carving knifes that he picked up on one of his travels and has a habit of carving wooden figures of things he finds memorable. These carvings can be as little as chess pawns or large scale carvings of scenery. Either way he does it and finds it highly relaxing. One person asked him why he does and Akire commented "It helps me view the world differently and sooth some rage inside me." This means he either is at least aware of his crazy fighting during battle. If someone finds him during one of his carving sessions he doesn't stop his work, but instead offers them to stay and watch. Often times the person is taken in by his kind and caring face. Akire makes small talk while he works on said carving. Often when he is finished he gives it to the person as a sign of good faith. Everyone who has been given a carving from him has died in a terrible gruesome accident. The wooden carving seem to survive almost every time, splattered with blood.
In battle he seems to take on a different personality. He becomes totally sadistic and loves to watch other scream and squirm as he fights. During battle Akire doesn't care about anything other than a fight and the blood it brings. his fighting style can best be described as "street brawler". He doesn't fight fair half the time and just wants to see his opponent in pain before killing them. One time he stayed in an area with beautiful scenery that he had spent months carving away into wooden slabs. Unknown to him the area was plagued by bandits who had been harassing travelers for months. The area Akire stayed in was a field of beautiful white flowers. The bandits thought of him as easy prey. Needless to say the flowers now grow scarlet once a year instead of their normal white.
Recently Akire has been trying to avoid fighting if at all possible but it is becoming more and more difficult. Almost as if his two halves have began merging into one another. Crazy flashes of anger during he silent walks and sudden care for enemies who are dying. These flashes don't last too long and fade quickly. It is still unknown if he has developed two different personalities or he is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
He has come across many guilds in his two years of travel through-out the lands. None of which have particularly struck him as interesting. This goes for dark guilds as well. When asked why he doesn't join he simply shrugs and leaves it at that. He has also taken up to keeping a journal of his adventures. No one has been able to read yet. Saying "It's not finished yet." as if he were writing a story.
Likes:
-Fire. For the pure and simple reasons thats its both pretty and destructive. Akire LOVES fire
-Blood and general violence. He tends to fall this way because of his history. Were he grew up, one had to fight to live and he gained a slightly twisted outlook on violence because of such.
-Sweets. He like sweets because they taste good. Plain and simple.

Dislikes:
-Bitter things. Bitter foods tend to leave a bad taste in his mouth.
-(when in combat) those who fight to protect "something precious".
-places that break his concentration from carving.

Motivations:
-To become a great carver and enjoy the world.
-To learn about different types of magic in the world.
-(in combat) to fight and feel blood.

Fears:
-Flashbacks relating to his past.
-All snakes, poisonous or not.
-Being forced into doing something that he'll greatly regret later in life.
