Everyone Loses Everything They Have at Some Point

Satoshi's Personality:
Satoshi falls initially into the stereotype of the cold and aloof teenager, because he's quiet and keeps an emotional distance from everyone. Smiles are rare for him, and genuine ones almost non-existent. Mostly a loner, he seems to take little interest in the activities and affairs of others and doesn't contribute much to group activities he doesn't have to, mostly going along with the majority opinion...and often tends to do things on his own even while pushing for others to cooperate efficiently. Almost always calm and collected, he can be pegged as one of the most mature people in any group and can be hard for even people he deals with regularly to read.

Extremely intelligent and observant for his age, he is good at planning and directing others helpfully. He normally takes the most preferable method of doing anything and makes note of things in case they need to be recounted later or so he can keep track of things...as such he always carries something he can use to take notes with. Very little seems to escape his notice, and his eye for detail borders on unnatural. Even in failure he learns from his mistakes and that pushes him even closer to success the next time. It irritates him noticeably when others work inefficiently during serious situations, though he won't waste much time telling them so once it's obvious they won't listen.

Beneath his cold and distant nature, he's actually not so. He doesn't identify with others his age very well because he's had to mature much faster...and because he finished high school at age eight and college by thirteen he's had little interaction with his own age group or their experiences. But he doesn't get along with adults well because while he is mature, he's not one of them. This being on the boundary between makes opening up hard for him. Home abuse does not help this in the slightest, and he can sometimes flinch away from unexpected physical contact.

Among his noticeable character quirks, are his disregard for personal space and his tendency to almost appear RIGHT THERE with little to no notice. He moves unusually quiet by nature and it's just a given that he often startles or catches others by surprise because of it. He's not above physically impeding a person's progress when he needs to, especially if he needs to speak with them alone...which may lead anyone who is an outside observer to question the nature of what's happening. He's somewhat cryptic when he speaks at times, offering very little information or saying things that can be taken the wrong way without that being his intent.

Offsetting his highly organized mind and work habits, Satoshi's living area usually a disaster area, not dirty but very untidy. He can still navigate and find anything he needs with ease though.


Satoshi's Abilities/Additional Notes:
As a Hikari, Satoshi's most powerful abilities revolve around art. He can create and give life to artworks, making powerful and possibly dangerous beings with unique magical abilities. He can also destroy these kinds of artworks or restore them. He can seal or limit their powers as well given the necessary means to. And he possesses knowledge of every artwork the Hikari made, whether it was destroyed or not, and what they're supposed to be capable of...as well as sense when their lives are ending and "hear" them.

Also as a Hikari, though this ability doesn't appear to use anything more than his eye for detail, excellent memory, and family's inherent talent as the source...he has the ability to perfectly recreate any painting or drawing that he's seen before in a matter of minutes.

And finally as a Hikari, he shares hi body with Krad, the white winged half of the artwork "Kokuyoku" in a mostly symbiotic relationship. Krad is a constant presence in his mind so he rarely has privacy and has moments where he apparently can't truly be sure which of them is in control, though neither of them mind this. Krad can manifest a physical body separate from him when he wishes, and Satoshi has access to all of Krad's magic...bu use of that power is taxing on his body and extended use of anything but his wings could kill him.

He is highly perceptive, noticing things others wouldn't: from things like hidden cameras and trap triggers, to being able to a differences in a river's flow at a glance. Doing something near him carries a heavy risk of him seeing it even if done subtly...and him not being in the immediate area does not mean he's not somehow watching either if he has reason to be observing something.

Though his physical abilities are pretty average, Satoshi does have a higher pain tolerance threshold than other people. As such he pays most injuries little to no mind and may fail to notice them at all if they're not major. He also tends to push his body when things need to be done, pushing himself on sheer force of will for as long as possible...though he may eventually pass out from exhaustion if he pushes his limits too far.

Krad's magic is flexible and grants him various abilities. He has become proficient at casting barriers, can manipulate things from a distance with a glance or gesture, attack with small energy blasts, and launch white feathers that are solid enough to cut or pierce stone easily. He can also fly, though the wings leave vertical wounds between his shoulder blades when he uses them and calling upon them hurts.
