HOW'S MY DRIVING?

Hanamura? Shirogane.

Damn. They really aren't answering...

[Filter || Shinji and Minato ]

Before he vanished Hanamura said he knew of a couple more Persona users in this city; people from his town. Any leads we might have?

[/]

[There's a distinct whuffle somewhere in the background.]

What's got you so uptight?

[FINE, GAMMA, GOD.]

[Filtered | locked to a certain prince... person.]

Uh. Hey. Fallon? There's something I've got to ask you.

[ffffff isn't making it out of this alive.]

[Socially awkward Akihiko is socially awkward. Sorry Gamma. Also his boyfriend showed up, and there are still a million things going on in the city that make it kind of hard to relax.]

[fail!filter to Yosuke and Naoto]

Hanamura, Shirogane, you guys go on without me. I think I'm just gonna stay here.

[win!filter to Shinjiro, for all the good it does]

...Hey, uh.

[The video weaves, its captured image a blur before Akihiko finally comes to a stop and frames it on himself. He is streaming sweat, panting, blood spidering from a few small cuts on his face. Glass shards. Things got a little explosive.

Behind him, the two Persona-using kouhai (Yosuke and Naoto) are catching up, both more frazzled than injured. But they're heading through the first open doorway they find.]

--Think we lost it--

[He gulps another breath, looking over his shoulder.]

There's no mistake-- that was a Persona. And...

[Akihiko looks back at the camera.]

...That thing in the mirror is vulnerable.




((continuing from here.))

[Akihiko looks fairly well-groomed for wandering the city for two days, which means he must have found food and some sort of temporary shelter. For the moment, however, he looks a little tired and foxed around the edges.

He's sitting down near the remains of a wall, which is likely how his communicator fell off his belt and is providing us with our current awkward dutch angle from ground level. Across from him we find milling a moderately-sized red stag, which seems to have found something to chew.

Akihiko stares the stare known only to very calm, self-possessed teenagers who are used to strange things happening but nevertheless are quite at a loss for why a deer has recently taken to following them around.]

...So what are you supposed to be, huh?

Stats:
Name: Akihiko Sanada
Gender: Male
Zodiac Sign/Birthday/Age: Leo/August 15th/18
Bloodtype: A
Occupation: None? At best he has a part time job somewhere these days.
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Sexuality: Nominally heterosexual, but mostly asexual
Weapon: Fists/gloves
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Gray
Physical traits: Akihiko is tall and slender, but athletic. He tends to sport a bandage or two resulting from some minor scuff or scrape. Not usually visible, but his left side is scored with several deep scars. He is left-handed.
What's Okay To Mention Around Him/Her: Akihiko is usually very calm and reserved, even if something annoys him. Just never, ever disparage his friends. Or get him onto a challenge you can't follow through on.
Abilities: Akihiko is bonded with a Persona, Caesar, capable of lightning-based attacks, support skills, and healing. As mentioned before, he uses his fists to fight, being a champion boxer.
Notes for the Psychics/Aura Readers: Personae tend to emerge from individuals with a strong will and focus, and Akihiko is no exception. Even among his teammates, he is seen as especially driven, almost to the point of having blinders on. So, he can be a little difficult to suppress. On the other hand, at the point I'm taking him from, he is beginning to regress emotionally and feel longing for the challenges and thrill of battle, which in turn becomes a huge mental weakness that can be exploited.

Permissions:
Attack/Injure: Yes.
Intoxicate: Yes.
Mindfuck/Rape/Torture/Kill/etc.: Yes to most things, but we'll have to discuss rape and killing.
Hug/Kiss: Yes.
Sex logs: Yes.
Read your thoughts/emotions: Yes.
Threadhopping/threadjacking: Unless it's obvious you shouldn't, go right ahead.

Anything else?
-You can view his application here.
-Akihiko is one of the more meta characters of Persona 3 and has actually been called out for treating things like they were part of a game (hurr). Because he arrived in Nuadoria straight from entering the Abyss of Time the first time, he thinks this is part of the dungeon, and believes that if he can just take care of obstacles here (ie, defeat the boss, because Akihiko thinks in these terms,) it will lead the way back to his friends.
-If you ever feel he is too proactive, please don't hesitate to notify me. It's how he is, but that doesn't mean he should be allowed to dominate the game.
