Math is evil and hellish.

That is all

It truly is... I miss the days when I was confused on 2 + 2

Name: Yikito Ikazaki
Appearance: A slightly taller than average, dark haired boy. His dark blue glasses reflect light at times, preventing some people from seeing his brown hazelnut eyes at first glance. Yikito almost always wears black shirts unless forced to wear something a different

Age: 15
Grade: 1st Year
Arcana: Hierophant
Weapon: Yikito prefers to use small/short swords, knives, and daggers.
Equipment: Anything that will protect him he'll be willing to wear, though he prefers lightweight armors and gear.

Evoker: A toy grenade, reminding him of how his best friend when he was little mistook a real grenade for a toy one, killing him.

Personality: Unless he's with his friends, Yikito is generally kept to himself. He is generally a good person who rarely, if ever, gets in trouble or does any bad things compared to other students in school. People tease him for being "good" all the time, calling him lame and stuff for not fitting in with everyone else. At times, however, Yikito wishes to do at least one bad thing to earn some respect around school. He tries his best to resist doing this, to not get in fights, skip class to smoke, etc, because he knows that if he gets caught he'll destroy not only his future but his family's as well.

Backstory: Yikito was born in a different country, however that country had high rates of crime and a terrible economy. His family was forced to move here, altough they didn't really do so legally... Claiming they were visiting as tourists for a few weeks, they've settled here as "tourists" to this very day. Quite Ironically, the Ikazaki family had a better home and more money back at the other country.
Growing up in a culture far too different from his family's, Yikito has been given his own life here. Altough his mom, Anari, is quite content staying here, his dad, Nakutski, misses the rest of his family back there, as well as the country itself. The Ikazaki family is given a huge choice: They may stay here hiding in fear of getting caught as illegal immigrants or return to their beautiful (yet very dangerous) country back home with minimal chances of being able to come back. Due to Yikito, and Yikito alone, Nakutski chose to stay. However they have to lay low from the law by not getting in trouble much. This is one reason why Yukiko is so good in school, to avoid the risk of being sent back to what he hears is a terrible place.
In his early elementary school years, Yukiko met his best friend Rioni when they took the same class together. Rioni and Yikito always did everything with each other. Rioni's father being a soldier, and that inspired Rioni to want to become one himself. He always played war games outside with Yikito and other friends.
One day, Rioni managed to get his hands on one of his father's grenades. No one knew how, as his dad always kept those types of things far away from his child. Believing it to be a toy, Rioni was blasted and killed. Witnessing this with his own eyes, any type of explosive induces a feeling of terror within him, hence his evoker.
Ever since then, Yikito has had to take therapy. He still does today whenever nightmares begin to kick in. Though this isn't as much of a problem now than it was before. Still, it has left a severe scar on Yikito that may not ever go away.

Persona Name: Omoikane
Persona Appearance:
Arcana: Hierophant
Skills: Enradi, Dia, Zio
Strengths and Weaknesses: Resists Electricity and is weak to Darkness

Shadow Self Appearance: Unlike Yikito's glasses who only reflect light at times, Shadow Yikito's glasses are always reflecting light, even when there is none. This represents how Shadow Yikito pushes back the good (the light). His posture is more relaxed and laid back and a wicked smile crosses his face.

Shadow Self True Appearance: A massive giant who's body reflects things back, like a mirror. It wears a mask on its head, like all shadows. When a piece of its mirror body shatters, dark hands made up of negative energy ooze out, as if trying to break free.

Shadow Self Personality: Since Yikito tries to be good, yet doesn't know if he should, Shadow Yikito does all of the things normal Yikito doesn't. Bad things, that secretly Yikito wishes to do in order to show everyone he isn't so good a person all the time.

(Favorite game is P3P, two characters i'd like together would be Yukari and Junpei somehow XD)

Haru my man, got any idea what I can come up with? XD

@Bomberman: All right, I kind of get the picture you want for Yikito, though I think you should go a little more in dept with what his family does, how he met his childhood friend, how come a kid could just grab a grenade and pull off the safe lock, things like that. To be honest, I find it somewhat vague, as well as his personality. What are we defining here as 'good' things? What a good thing for Yikito may be, might be somethign totally different from someone else, maybe you should say something like 'he tries to do things he finds ethically correct, such as helping grannies with their bags, etc...' Of course, I don't wanna interfere with your writing style, but I do find it somewhat redundant. I think you have way, WAY more things to fill on about him due to a traumatic event such as seeing someone die in front of you gives you much ground to work with. Though, this are just my suggestions, you are free not to follow them and go with whatever you think will look better than your current CS. Also, OTP=One true pairing, meaning, which Persona characters would you like to see together as a couple.

@Jelly: Never knew you were a Persona fan, Jelly. In case you are here to join, xD. Mmmm...... Considering you, I think you'd be good with an Arcana like the Empress or the Moon would be good for you, if you wanna know more about them, check the link in the OP.

Ah I see okay then i'll work on it some more. Now that I think about it it's pretty silly how Yikito is not affected at all by his best friend blowing up in front of him...

Thank you for pointing that out. :)

I haven't even had a chance to read any of the IC yet. I'll try to get on that as soon as I can, hopefully have something up tonight, if not maybe tomorrow afternoon?

You can take your time, no worries. :P

I edited my CS, tell me what you think.

Interested. Regardless if I can't find the time to get a sheet up, I'd like to say the rp is very well put together, the sheets are deliciously beautiful, and the IC itself is riveting. Gets my Shin Megami Tensai/Persona Boxers all riled up. Koga Saburo is looking real nice for a Persona.

Oh well, an Empress sure does fit me since I love doing Bitchy Badass characters
Here is a WIP preview

@Bomber: Now that is better, I hereby accept you. Will edit the Arcana list in a bit. Keep an eye out for what Noel has to say, though. Also, your class is 1-2, you're in the same class as my character, Touko.

@Kal-El: Good to see more interest, hope we can see that CS soon! ^.^

@Jelly: I cannot say I didn't expect that, regardless, looking forward to your CS.

Wooooot

Sounds great, can't wait to play.

Though I am not usually a forum roleplayer so i'm wondering how I can start? Is it the morning of the first day or...?

Oh, it is still the morning of the first day. In fact, you can just read the first post in the IC and then you can explain how you character spent his morning. Then how he went to class, etc.. For sake of interactions, you can also get to talking with Touko if you want to take the seat beside her. Not until later will we see actual action, since we are just starting. If you have any more doubts, don't hesitate to ask.

Hey Makatsume, would it be alright if I change Kazu weapon to a spear?

Since we still haven't gone into real action, then yeah, I don't see a problem.

Woots

And suddenly, three more people.

Okay, so after Lionheart posts, I'll move class along and we can all go to the dorm, or something. Mind if I do the whole class day and then to dorm assignments, so we cna have the first night right after?
