Name: Farley Scary
Age: 17
Height: 6'3 ft
Weight: 175 lbs
Year: Freshman

Personality: In short, exactly the kind of person you'd expect to bring a knife to a fistfight. Scary isn't the kind of guy that values "fair-play" and "an honest day's work" and will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. That said, he is far from heartless and would sooner die than betray a friend. In the end, he'll probably reluctantly stand up for his morals... whatever they are.

Fighting Style: Scary lives for cheap shots. At the start of a confrontation, one can reasonably assume that he has a small police-station's supply of weaponry on his person. Every fight is a battle between his flash showman's instincts and the tacit knowledge that the powers that be would be less than thrilled at the prospect of a contestant pulling a butterfly knife out of his shoe mid-fight. Cheap shots are the name of his game 9 times out of 10, though he's not above just tranqing them from halfway across the field if he thinks he can get away with it. Even without sneaking something into the ring, Scary is still better off confusing and distracting his opponents than facing them head on.

Martial Arts: A sort of bastardized ninjutsu, with a slight Fencing edge in the hidden blade department and a working knowledge of basic modern military hand to hand if the need arises.

History: A military brat, Farley Scary was born and raised in Melbourne, Australia. From day one, he held his father on a pedastle, a symbol of bravery. After all, the old man had the courage to enter the UK Special Forces! Much as Farley loved the thrill of combat however, he knew he'd rather have the glory and money of arena combat than a career on the front. That in mind, he developed a flashy (not to mention possibly cheating-oriented) set of moves and left for the academy (despite both parents encouraging him to pursue any other career).

Dreams and Fears:

In a lot of ways, Farley is a simple man. He wants money. He wants fame. He wants friends, even if his rather prickly demeanor would indicate otherwise. Given that his entire life thus far has been learning a style that allows his wits and dexterity to overcome his wiry frame and lack of stamina. He wants to be the very best, but only if doing so gets him cash and an expensive engraved trophy.

He resents being called a cheater, seeing his use of pepper spray, rubber bullets and shoe blades as a way of compensating for his stamina (which, as previously mentioned, is laughable), as legitimate as any other fighting style. Or at least, that's the defense he uses. How much of it he actually believes is up for debate.

He is also deathly afraid of beetles.

Name: Besuoro Hasashi
Age: 17
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 170lbs

Personality: Besouro is an interesting kind of guy. He's named after a legend of Brazil, a hero of Capoeira who defended his countrymen in the 19th century from oppressors. Besouro meaning "beetle", whom he is believed to be a descendant of. He is of Afro brazilian heritage though spent most of his life in and around the prefectural mountains of Hokkaido, known for its hot springs, winter slopes and wilderness. He was taken in by a prominent ninja family and raised in the ways of ninjutsu. He was chosen specifically for his natural aptitude and temperament, which made him a good sparring partner and rival to the first born heir of the Hasashi clan. His personality is somewhat reserved and "ahead" for someone his age, having experienced some amount of loss and living on his own before being adopted by the Hasashi clan, prior to being taken in, he was a bit of a delinquent but showed remarkable wisdom beyond his years, with a little proper discipline and motivation he'd become the "ideal" ninja.

Fighting Style (with this I mean HOW does he fight not WHAT HE USES): In battle Besuro is a marvel to behold, on the surface his style is quite flashy and needlessly showy but there is some substance behind his unorthodox talent. He's nimble, deadly precise and unusually cunning. His reflexes are a notch above and he learns abilities quicker than most. He's a hard worker dedicated to mastering his craft.

Martial Arts: Specializes in Ninjutsu and Capoeira respectively. He's known to throw in a wrestling move or two, as he's a fan of Puroresu.

History: Besuoro is from Brazil originally, the son of an activist and teacher who were slain by unknown assailants in the streets of Rio. For much of his middling years Besuoro was a ward of the streets, getting by however he could. He encountered the head of the Hasashi clan while he was touring central America, lord Hasashi was thoroughly impressed seeing a young Besuoro perform Capoeira in the streets for means, Besuoro was given Japanese currency which he was curious about. The young Besuoro had lifted the foreigners wallet, knowing yen was highly valuable resource. He was accosted by a gang of older teen delinquents who wanted the money for themselves, he fought valiantly against 5 but was ultimately saved by Lord Hasashi who'd been watching the entire dispute. After pardoning the boy, he was given the ultimatum of going back to Japan with Hasashi to study ninjutsu from a real ninja master.

In the years following his arrival to Japan, he was trained in the customs of the ninja arts alongside Hasashi's heir. He was eventually enrolled into Shinjuku academy as the family had ties there and all members of the Hasashi clan had attended previously.

Dreams and Fears: His fears mostly revolve around his own inabilities to connect with other people, his parents were assassinated when he was still young so that left quite an impression, his dream is to start a family. Though he wants to be the top martial artist before accomplishing that.
