Sexuality: Asexual
Age + Birthdate: 24 + Summer Solstice
Nationality: Zou
Race: Human
Specialization: Strength
Personality: Tsuka comes off as a being that was born for social interaction and oozes the charm necessary to befriend most he comes across. His natural response to most situations is a sly smile and witty retort even if his mouth can put him in a predicament. Due to his seductive disposition he often finds himself manipulating those around him to achieve his goals. It is not beneath this cretin to lie, cheat, or steal at a given opportunity. Disguises and lying about his identity is one of the many ruses he is known for.
When in direct confrontation his demeanor darkens and his affinity for chaos quickly comes forward as his usual charm fades. When in combat he becomes derogatory and verbally cutting using his words as a weapon just as much as his fists. His true colors, as all warriors, begin to show in the midst of battle and his cocky nature becomes his most apparent trait.
Despite the placid visage that he is able to place outwardly, inwardly he is a turbulent storm. In constant turmoil and strife with his actions and thoughts, he is a soul that is bound to a fate of suffering. Incapable of forgiveness, self or otherwise, he goes through his waking moments callous and alone.
Likes: Tsuka is an appreciator of the finer experiences in life; splurging on wine, spices, food and entertainment is a favored pastime. He considers himself a man of the times and catches any recent rumors or news through gossiping with the individuals he comes across. A narcissist at heart he is proud to boast of his existence to anyone willing to listen.
Dislikes: Tsuka's tome of dislikes is almost too innumerable to express. With an in-general disgust and apathy for most individuals and a no-tolerance policy for ignorance he finds himself holding the short stick in most situations.
Phobias: Although he would never admit it his largest fear is to be socially alienated. More in denial than not, Tsuka's borderline social anxiety disorder is what is the catalyst for his ability to lie so easily to fit in. The moments he has dreaded the most in his life has been when he was alone-- that's when his critical light no longer shines on others and focuses on himself. Dually a deep-seeded fear of failing drives his ambition.
Aspirations: Tsuka's largest motivation is his burning desire to persist and live on. Selfish gain is his usual goal for whatever situation he is getting in whether it be fiscal, physical, or anything else he desires. Tsuka's true loyalty belongs to himself and as such it is what he dedicates most of his time to. The recent rumors of fortunes appearing in dungeons he is bound to make an attempt at ascertaining a piece of the treasure.
Face-Claim: OC Crow from the fabulous artist Klar

Hair Color: Faded blonde with patches of obsidian on the sides and around his ears.
Eye Color: Golden.
Height: 5'11"
Rukh Alignment: Black
Special Traits: Tsuka was altered as a child to have large, black cat-like ears. Likewise his pupils are more of a narrow slit than a circle likened that of a cat.
Appearance: Nimble and slightly unkempt his sharp jaw-line is matched by his dagger-like torso. With lanky appendages to match he has an overall long aspect to him. Lean with not enough muscle mass to look aggressive he comes off as a healthy individual with the exception of the dark splotches that tend to form underneath his eye whilst under stress or fatigue. He tends to hold himself with a pious air-- back stiff, shoulders back, head held high.
On any given day Tsuka can be caught in an ornate display of garbs. The situation dictates what he is wearing and whilst he is within a bustling city he attempts to blend in as much as possible.
While in a hostile territory he adorns himself in a dark tunic with leather gauntlets, thigh guards, shin guards, and a skirt to accompany. A strong presence when standing on the battlefield he can appear larger than he really is.
History: Tsuka did not begin as the dark and malevolent individual that he is now. The plight of his tale is one that has been plaguing mankind for centuries; corrupt souls can never be erased.
His Mother was a woman who had strong determination and a warm aura to her. She was left to raise Tsuka by herself at a young age and even though it was rigorous she managed to get by peddling flowers until one day she owned her own shop. By the time that Tsuka was just a few years old his mother decided that Zou was no longer a place that she wanted her son to grow up due to Gao Zu’s tyranny and made the decision to have him smuggled out of the country through means of a spice merchant, who led a caravan, that she trusted.
For the next four years Tsuka spent his time, happy even, traveling with a group of foreigners whose cultures he had never embraced. Hailing from Balbadd he embraced their foods, myths and made friends with their children. Misfortune was quick to strike though and the caravan was ambushed by a group of thieves. The few survivors, including Tsuka, were sold into slavery rings at a black market in Balbadd. Tsuka was purchased by a dark wizard. Je'lzar worshiped gods that men no longer spoke of and practiced rituals that were passed down in secret --a bastard from a lineage of priests from Heliohapt. The wizard disfigured Tsuka and left him with the curse of black feline-like ears. After another ritual was performed Tsukai he awoke with no recollection of the night before and Je'lzar's lifeless body on the floor.
Seeking a new start he left never to look back again. A child left to defend himself he quickly grew up in a harsh world. At first he depended off of soup lines and handouts but soon learn to begin to develop the skills needed to complete odd tasks as to become self-reliant.
Currently he has heard rumors of the dungeons and the tension between Reim and Heliohapt. With his own best interests in mind he has headed to Reim.
Tsuka at 18.
Role-Play Sample: A slender frame set foot through the threshold of the small ramen shop. It had been days since they had a customer and it was obvious to Tsuka from the way that the old woman in the shop bustled to greet him.
"Welcome, have a seat!" The old woman called out flashing a toothless grin as she pulled back one of the plush cushions from underneath the low-sitting table. Tsuka took the seat and instantly his shoulders dropped and his guard followed suit. A soft sigh escaped between his lips as his eyes closed-- an expression of his relaxed state.
"What can I get for you?" She chimed in his ear while pouring a steaming cup of an herbal tea into the cup closest to Tsuka's right hand that rested on the table.
"Everything!" He replied quickly, his golden hues flashing as he cast his glance.
