[hider=Iktomi Ascher]

[b]Name[/b]: Iktomi Ascher
[b]Age[/b]: 21
[b]Gender[/b]: Male
[b]Birthplace[/b]: Argos, Arcarus
[b]Current Home[/b]: Sovereign

[b]Personality:[/b] Iktomi doesn't feel anything towards people, with a couple rare exceptions. He views them as pawns to be used to further his own goals, and will move them as he pleases without a care for what befalls them. This ruthless nature is disguised behind a mask of emotion, one that he wears flawlessly. He abstains from being direct in his intentions, covering them in a series of elaborate lies. He weaves a web of misdirection around him at all turns, adding to it's complexity so that it becomes more and more difficult to see through it the longer he continues it. 

In the presence of one of the few people he actually cares for he allows his true emotions to show. He refuses to include them in his game without their knowledge. He trusts them to be able to use their own mind to assist him, when it is needed. They are his knights, rooks, and bishops. He has nothing to hide from this people, for he knows that they are already aware of how he treats others. Even when they don't approve, they still keep him in their lives. 

[b]Bio:[/b] Iktomi was brought up in a less than desirable home. The most 'love' he got from his parents was when they were in public. As they were both professors in the College of Argos they had to maintain a certain image, which required people to believe that they gave a damn about their only son. While this had an adverse effect on his emotional development, it actually forced him to become even more intelligent than he would have been. Even though they had the money to, his parents refused to get someone to look after him when they were a way and as such he quickly learned how to live on his own. 

There was only one constant in his life back than, his 'friend' Arianna. At the start though they were more rivals than anything else. She was at the top of their class, which caused Iktomi quite a bit of annoyance since she was a year younger than him. Throughout their younger years this annoyance caused him to bully her, which she returned in kind. He just could not accept the fact that she was as intelligent as he was. This continued through their elementary years. However as they reached middle school their relationship began shifting. The hostility that had permeated their younger years vanished, replaced with something just above indifference. They were polite to one another both at school and at their joined family dinners. This confused Iktomi originally, but soon he realized that it was not something he could analyze and break down. As High School reared its ugly head, the two found their relationship changing once more, evolving into full out friendship due primarily to the fact they shared many classes. However his life at home was progressing in the opposite direction. His parents no longer had to pretend in public, as they simply left him at home. They became more and more distant until it came to the point that they were never home anymore. Strangely enough Iktomi did not even care at this point. 

Towards the end of 9th grade he found himself growing closer to Arianna, but he was not allowed time to give this new development much thought as his focus was forced on the fact that he would be graduating at the end of the school year. The teachers had conceded that there was nothing else they could teach him. With this news his parents informed him that he would be moving out as soon as graduation was finished. He couldn't bear to inform Arianna of this, and as such he made an arrangement with the Head Master to let him skip graduation and just give him his diploma. 

Iktomi has since been living in Sovereign, growing more and more manipulative over the years.

[b]Kage Personality/Description:[/b] Archania is a hunter, she stalks her prey very carefully and prefers leading them into traps rather than out right attacking them. Her miscalculation of Iktomi, and his ability to suppress her from consuming his spirit has lead her to have a slight amount of respect for the meat bag, although she is always looking for a way to finish what she started.
