Name: Akira Kirigakure
Age: 18
Personality: He comes off as cold and rude most of the time, due to his appearance and occasional sarcastic comments and the fact that he doesn't mince words when speaking to people, when in actuality he's kind. Though, he can be quite hot-headed and reckless, a bit wild.
Equipment/Skills:
- Pinpoint
- An excellent archer, which is an understatement consider he either placed 1st or 2nd in regional and national tournaments
- Boy's A Brawler
- Having got into many fights when he was younger, and through all his time in the archery club, he became quite capable with his hands which translated well with his fists.
Background: Growing up in a sporting family, with his father having practiced Kendo in his early years, his mother in archery and his older sister, Aoi, having followed their fathers footsteps with kendo. Having looked up to his mother, for her strength of will and determination, Akira grew fascinated watching his mother shoot every morning. He thought her form and the motion of it all was beautiful and grew fond the the arrow getting released from the bow and hitting the target. With every days passing, he became determined to learn Archery and after awhile managed to persuade his mother to teach him. As the years followed, his talent began to shine when he placed 1st in a regional tournament in his first year of middle school and followed that up with a 4th place finish in the nationals.
While he was initially disappointed for not getting higher, having got a little ahead of himself because of his placing in the regionals, he changed his mind when he was scolded (albeit lightly) by his mother and assured that placing 3rd in the nationals was a big deal and he should be proud. From that point on to the end of his middle school career, he placed either 1st or 2nd in every competition he competed in. When it came time to pick which High school for him to go to, despite having received scholarships from schools with prominent archery programs, he elected instead to go to the local high school, warakuma high, where his friends and fellow archery club mates decided to go. However, when he got into high school, he started having problems with a few upperclassmen in the Archery club. Putting up with it for awhile, it reached its boiling point mid-way through the school year when they got into a heated argument which turned into an ugly bare fisted brawl that result in him getting kicked from the club. And in turn started giving him a bad reputation within the school as a 'troublemaker' or a 'delinquent'.
