misc info: ━ born and lived the majority of his life in mont maudit before war between humans and dragons drove him from his home when he was only nineteen; while he fought he received a large wound on his left wing, one that makes it difficult to fly for long periods even to this day ━ donning a human disguise he hid himself among them while he recovered, leaving him to nurse his wounded pride by himself, with little knowledge as to his remaining family's whereabouts ━ very rarely changes his form any more, accepting that his days as a full dragon are likely far behind him
━ as gruff as he can be he has a soft spot for animals, often feeding the stray cats in his area if he has the food left over ━ despite living around them he still harbors a deep rooted dislike towards humans, one that he still sometimes struggles to hold back outside of the fighting ring ━ generally gets along better with strong willed people, or at the very least people who are blunt and up front; be honest with him and he'll be honest with you |

misc info: ━ one of the most notable things about itsuo is that he's undoubtedly an unapologetic asshole; snarky, arrogant, competitive, crude and even reckless at times, the latter fuelled by a need for adrenaline. when it comes to work, however, he's extremely driven and focused, having earned a name for himself for being ruthless with hunting ━ his daughter was the result of a one night stand between him and a friend of a friend seven years ago; her mother renounced custody of her when she was a few months old due to a severe case of ppd, it was admittedly a struggle to adapt to suddenly having the responsibility of looking after a child but somehow he managed ━ one of his hunting jobs had him crossing paths with a witch, resulting in a heavy cursed being placed upon him; it started with whispers in his ear and a sense of restlessness, escalating to possession and waking up in places he doesn't recognise. it isn't widely known knowledge, something he keeps firmly to himself unless deemed important ━ given his curse and the nature of his work itsuo distanced himself from his family when his daughter was two, sending a large sum of money each month to his sister to look after her ━ probably uses two in one shampoo and conditioner, he's all about convenience ━ tri-lingual, speaks predominantly english and japanese but also knows conversational mandarin |
misc info: ━ above all else mamoru prides himself in being a warrior, constantly pushing himself to be the best fighter that he can. in the heat of battle he's relentless and merciless, cutting down enemies without hesitation ━ particularly skilled in hand to hand combat, sword fighting and flame wielding, struggles with archery (unfortunate habit of accidentally breaking bows) and views poison as a coward's weapon ━ eldest son of a demon lord, currently has three younger brothers and one younger sister ━ arrogant, headstrong and incredibly opinionated, it's difficult for him to look at things from other peoples' points of view ━ incredibly protective over his younger siblings, even if he wouldn't admit it out loud ━ well versed in battle strategies, and while he's capable of fighting alongside others, he finds it easier and less distracting to fight one on one ━ cats seem to be drawn to him, not much of a surprise since he runs a lot warmer than the average human,

✦ ─ eerily gentle demeanor, soft spoken and very rarely raises his voice
✦ ─ his first impression is that of a deceptively kind man, though digging just a little deeper will reveal mildly sadistic tendencies and a cold calculation ✦ ─ appears human enough at a glance, though if you pay enough attention there are small oddities that give him an uncanny valley energy: his footsteps make no sound, he never appears to blink, and if you're close enough you'll find he doesn't have a scent ✦ ─ delights in being around people with personalities that clash against his own, derives particular amusement from getting under others' skin ✦ ─ amoral, he's a man driven purely by scientific curiosity with very little care for empathy, societal standards or expectations ✦ ─ uncanny ability to know more than he should, though when asked he'll give a flippant answer or brush the subject aside ✦ ─ born to a demon father and a human mother, though it appears that he's inherited much more of his father's traits than his mother's ✦ ─ uses his deceptively gentle demeanor as a means to manipulate the people around him, either as a means to an end or simply for his own amusement ✦ ─ arrogance and pride are by far his largest sins, just barely overshadowing wrath ✦ ─ holds very little care for the people around him, very rarely developing emotional attachments to other people unless they're either deemed as useful in some way or directly correlate with an experiment ✦ ─ demonic abilities are weaker than a pure blooded demon, though he still has the capability to hide certain aspects of his appearance, and the ability to influence the emotions of the humans around him, especially when it comes to dragging less pleasant emotions like anger to the surface |
