Jinpachi Kyle "Say what you want behind my back, I don’t give a fuck. It’d only mean I’m two steps in front of you, fucking moron."
The Biography
Birth Name: Jinpachi "Ryohei" Kyle Aliases: ∞ Ryohei: Given name from those that share the same Japanese blood as him. Family and close friends know him as such while the individuals of Azores simply know him as Kyle. Gender: Male Age: Twenty-One Birth Day: 5/26/1994 Arcana: Hanged Man - The Hanged Man Arcana is associated with self-sacrifice for the sake of enlightenment, the bindings that makes one free, paradoxes and hanging between heaven and earth. Hanged Man characters may be self-sacrificial, but are more often notable for being caught between two different extremes or parties. Evoker: Tarot Card Place of Residence: Penecia Island School Year: N|A Class: N|A
After School Club: N|A
Part Time Job: Hoodlum (Gangster), Club Bouncer
Appearance:
Kyle (Ryohei) is an adult with a 'rough n' tough' physique. He is extremely fit with visible tone lines and muscle. He stands at a modest height of 6'1'' and weighs in around 78 kilograms. Being of both Japanese and German blood, Kyle (Ryohei) shares physical traits from both bloodlines. Slightly slanted eyes, pale skin pigmentation; yet silky smooth to the touch despite the lifestyle he is about. Such 'pretty' traits are equally balanced with his manly facial structure. Bushy eyebrows, chiseled chin, lionhearted stare, and an overall dominant demeanor and aura.
Kyle (Ryohei) dresses accordingly to his trade. By day he is a Gangster; the scourge of the law and predator of the concrete jungle. He prefers clothes that are fashionable and shows his miniature wealth. So he can be seen in expensive sneakers and elite name brand gear; normally hip-hop or business casual related. However, by night, he is a club bouncer; the answer to intoxicated brutes or disrespectful tourists. Then he can be seen sporting suites with thick shades. The suites tend to be a little baggy due to the fact he needs a wider range of movement when dealing with drunken club-goers.
Personality:
Chaotic Neutral - A chaotic neutral character follows his whims. He is an individualist first and last. He values his own liberty but doesn't strive to protect others' freedom. He avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges traditions. A chaotic neutral character does not intentionally disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. To do so, he would have to be motivated either by good (and a desire to liberate others) or evil (and a desire to make those different from himself suffer). A chaotic neutral character may be unpredictable, but his behavior is not totally random. He is not as likely to jump off a bridge as to cross it.
∞ Boorish - Kyle (Ryohei) is as bad-mannered as any criminal could come. He doesn't follow by the rules set by the law, the island(s) or others, he goes where he pleases, says what he pleases, takes what he pleases, and lusts after what he deems worthy. The words that roll off his tongue; more times than not, revolve around cussing or an indecent phrase, and if one doesn't like it? He dares said person to voice their displeasure. ∞ Cynical - Everyone is all about getting theirs and don't give a damn who they step on to get what they desire or even lust after. Kyle (Ryohei) believes this to be 105% true; for he sees it day in and day out. He too follows this same mindset, but he knows it to be wrong and no ideal way to live life. So just because most everybody is selfish, doesn't mean he has to... At least to the extent others display on the daily. ∞ Unstable- Kyle isn't one for back and fourth bickering; that's a bitches trait and he ain't no bitch, he preaches to those around him. So if it's a battle of wits one wants, it's a preemptive punch to the face they will get in retaliation. Kyle is a grown ass man with grown ass man business to attend to twenty-four hours of the day, seven days of the week. What does he look like participating in playground antics and taunts? This more than likely is directed rooted to some sort of anger management issue, but it's probably the fact he just ain't got time for that. Though, if it's a battle of wits, he'd probably win anyways. ∞ Devoted- He may be all about his gains, but he is deathly loyal to those he has created ties and bonds with. When he reaches the top, he wants others to be their with him; looking down on those who are selfish and self-centered. He'd never gravely betray those he has such connections with. Causing them fatal injury is another thing he couldn't do. He understands how unreasonable he can be, so if one wishes to cut all connections, so be it. But he will always and forever remain devoted to said individual. It's the rule of the street and fundamental teaching of The Game. ∞ Accepting- Some people are born cowards, some strong, and others without a purpose. Kyle (Ryohei) accepts this fact about people for what it is and expects very little out of them once this knowledge is gained. If one is weak, he wouldn't expect said individual to have his back in the heat of war. If one is disloyal, he'd tell them to get the fuck away from him because the sight of disloyal scum makes his stomach churn. He accepts the good with the bad, the strong with the weak, and the action with the reaction. Attempting to turn a boy into a man is gods work and he is no god. So he ain't got no time for this 'change' business. It is what it is.
—Strength Name: Virtuoso Of Close quarters Combat —Description: Kyle (Ryohei) has studied a number of hand-to-hand styles (Boxing, Muay Thai, Tae Kwon Do, and Krav Maga) and weapon-styles (Kenjutsu, Bōjutsu, and Knife-Fighting) He is a force to be reckoned with; capable of taking on multiple assailants at once. However, he isn't a master of any specific style as of yet.
—Strength Name: The Indomitable ruffian —Description: Kyle (Ryohei) is head-strong and body-strong. His will and body are like massive walls of reinforced steel capable of withstand more than one nuclear warhead... At least in theory. He will take physical punishment and always stand back up on two feet all while taking the same amount of mental anguish. The human body has its limits, but Kyle (Ryohei) has yet to find his. (5% off physical damage [from soul bound/physical hits not Personas])
—Strength Name: Popcultural Einstein —Description: Kyle (Ryohei) knows just about everything there is to know about American, Japanese, Korean, popculture. With this massive amount of 'useless' information, he can almost completely gauge a semi-normal individual in terms of their likes and dislikes. It's all science.
—Strength Name: Me Casa Su Casa —Description: Kyle (Ryohei); despite being a selfish dick, can be very very generous. Truth be told, he doesn't really need much to satisfy his hunger for material-goods once he gets his gear. So he is no stranger when it comes to giving and not receiving. If one needs the shirt off his back, he'll more than likely give it to them... If it isn't cold to the point where he can't function without it. Same goes for food, money, ect.
—Strength Name: Batman Reincarnate —Description:"He's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs!" Kyle (Ryohei) isn't necessarily the biggest comic book hero fan. But him and the Gotham Crusader have one thing in common: They both can conceal their presence to an extreme level. Kyle can easily sneak around a group of people without getting noticed in broad daylight if he so wishes it. Let there a place for him to hide or lay low. Your chances of finding him will be extremely low due to his lack of presence.
Weaknesses:
—Weakness Name: Jinpachi Surname —Description: Kyle (Ryohei) has very little idea who he actually is. He knows very of the Jinpachi linage and has been advised countless times to keep his blood hidden. That being said; curiosity always killed the cat. He is currently looking for ways to broaden his horizon on who he actually is and why this blood coursing through his veins is so secretive. So if one can provide any knowledge, he'll do just about anything to obtain it.
—Weakness Name: Boulevard Mentality —Description: Kyle (Ryohei) is 100% about his gains and hustle. That being said, he likes to associate with those that share the same mindset. But what if he puts himself in the situation with those that take instead of earn? Well, he becomes an unpredictable asshole you simply cannot trust. Anyone that is shady, takes without earning (this exclude stealing because, ya' know, you stole that shit thus earning it), or is just a down right scumbag is subject to getting stabbed in the back repeated times. And trust me, it will happen. At the end of the day: Real always recognizes real.
—Weakness Name: A Ruthless Villain Cold Tearing Shit Up. —Description: Kyle (Ryohei) simply doesn't care who or what he has to step on to get ahead in life (the exception being allies to a certain extent). Kyle is the type of person to steal from under your nose, and return your item(s) as if it were brand new. It has been countless times he has given money to the people he has stolen from or wronged. Why? Because it's all about survival and what they don't know wont hurt them. Kyle is extremely caring, sure. But in the end: It's all about Do-Ri-Him.
—Weakness Name: Big Brother Syndrome —Description: Kyle (Ryohei) loves children unconditionally. growing up in an orphanage does that to you. Any child he meets, he can't help but be goofy, smile, and understand any problem they may have. See now, this may not be much of a weakness. But what if the child is a little devil-spawn? Does this overall strength and trait become a weakness? Damn skippy it does. Kyle cannot and refuses to hurt a child in anyway, shape, or form. He rather the child kill him before he even thinks about laying a finger on them. Children are the future after all, right?
—Weakness Name: You So thirsty! —Description: Dude is dehydrated like he has been sitting in the blistering sun for hours on end! If he sees a bodacious female strutting on by; hips swaying the way he likes... Yeah, it's over. Someone get this man a nice tall bottle of Aquafina because he turns into a monster. Corny pick up line after corny pick up line. It's bad... Really bad. But ya' know, They call em' Thirst Traps for a reason.
—Weakness Name: Fatal Flaw(s) —Description: Kyle (Ryohei) may be a beast in the CQC (Close quarters Combat) category. But every single one of his styles are flawed in one way or another. This doesn't mean he wouldn't be able to hold his own against someone who specific studies the ins and outs of the style; he'd just be at a greater disadvantage than most with his level of skill. Not because he lacks experience (which, ironically enough, he somewhat does), but because if the practitioner can exploit these flaws. The style in question would be completely useless.
Soul Bound Weapon:
Weapon Name: Straight Bangga' Weapon Description: A 5ft crimson red Bō with the durability to withstand 3 tons of real world pressure. The durability when dealing with normal circumstances is phenomenal, while the durability when dealing with the supernatural; while still great, isn't even close in comparison. Weapon Image: [✗] Weapon Attack Type: Strike Weapon Element: - - -
The Background
History:
Kyle was raised within the prestigious orphanage of Penecia Island. The place for forgotten children was well known for their well behaving and academically elite orphans. Kyle never rose to the occasion in both categories. He was a wild-child, always involving himself with the riff-raff and getting into fights over little misunderstandings. The adults that came to visit him with ideas of adoption were always put off by his rough n' tough behavior and ideas.
Until one day...
At the tender age of twelve an elderly gentlemen visited the young Kyle with hopes of adopting him. Like the other adults before him, the boy didn't shy away; but instead acted like some little thug in training. However, the feeble display did nothing to the hardened elderly man. Instead, he punished the boy with a display of his Kung-Fu. He whispered to the child; explaining how he knew who he was and even his last name. After the initial meeting, the elderly kung-fu master visited Kyle a total of three more times before ultimately adopting him.
Life with the kung fu master was a rather tough one. He went by the name of Sol and taught the pre-teen discipline, respect, and how to fight. It took six years for Master Sol to get through the think skull of Kyle; but he did it, and Kyle always appreciated him for it. Ultimately, old habits tend to never fully die and Kyle found himself diving deeper into the pit of the Gangster life style.
At the age of eighteen, Master Sol passed away and left his residence to his only son; Kyle. The residence was turn't into a martial-arts school and a place for troubled orphans/teenagers to rest. Kyle knew what he wanted to do with his life, he may be a Gangster, but he always truly wanted to help people even if he had an horrible way of showing it.
Now twenty-One, Kyle still runs the Island with an iron-fist though strange occurrences are happening. Pfft, who gives a fuck! As long as they don't interfere with his gains, whats happening shouldn't and wouldn't concern him.
But it was only a matter of time...

Soulbound weapons normally can beat up anything real life (walls, metal etc.), so the main thing they have trouble with is other soulbound weapons and supernatural stuff. Just clarifying that since it can withstand "3" tons worth of pressure, which I am guessing was referring to normal stuff. But it's still approved.
