Koichi stands at 5'6" weighing about 140lbs. While he does often give off the appearance of a scrawny, and weak high schooler of average standing he is actually
quite well defined under his clothing due to rigorous training by his masters.
Name: Koichi Nakamura
Nickname: {I can't think of one...}
Age: 18
Personality: Koichi is for the most part a kind hearted person. He is easy to get along with, and has this thing about protecting those who cannot protect themselves. It is likely because of this reason that he follows Angelo. Still aside from taking down The Dragons, he has his own goals. Some at least. He just doesn't have anything specific as of yet. Overall all though, he is loyal and extremely protective of his friends and family. To a fault even. In some cases even to those he barely knows if he feels he can trust them or if it means protecting someone who cannot protect themselves.
History: The beginning of Koichi's life had been relatively simple and fine. He had no complaints. He figured things would go on like this for quite some time. However, he was wrong. He was so wrong. Around the time he was 5, he lost his parents. There wasn't some accident. It wasn't like they died an fools death. They were simply at the wrong place at the wrong time. He watched it happen. He was powerless as his father and subsequently his mother were both killed before him, by a small group of members of the Dragons. He was an orphan as a result of this of course, but there was hope for him. His grandparents wouldn't be able to raise him, but he had an aunt. She'd been alerted of his situation very quickly and was quick to make her way back home. It was here she settled down to raise him with her partner.
The two adults opened a small dojo. They taught martial arts, but for sport. Not for real battle. However, that wasn't to say Koichi would learn. He spent the next two years getting over his parents death and adjusting to his new life. One doesn't simply forget a tragedy such as the one he witnessed, but he'd more normally adjusted. The problem is, he'd begun getting into fights. He wasn't bullied per say. He simply attempted to interject in the bullying of others and ended up getting ganged up on and beaten a lot. His aunt urged him to give it up and try to lead a simple life. However, he refused. She didn't begin to teach him anything though. It was the man, Ryoichi Saito who began to teach him. He didn't intend of doing much more than simple self defense karate techniques. And that was more or less it. Until he had to deal with Kaede when she found out after Koichi got in trouble for beating up one of the bullies. Of course, it was for good reason, but in the eyes of the school violence was violence.
After this, Kaede did in fact agree to train Koichi along with Ryoichi. Of course, compared to Ryoichi who would hurt Koichi by accident during training and generally had good reason in his teaching techniques, Kaede was a spartan. Hellish training in and out by the two people who would go from being his caretakers to his masters. Since then his strength, stamina, speed, all the training of his physical abilities and the sheer basics of each style have been driven into him and still are being driven into him. Things get harder and more hellish, but he has yet to be allowed to move on. Ryoichi and Kaede had both decided that he could get by with petty bullies and the like with his skills. They continue to training him so he doesn't slack off, but they rarely give any higher level or newer techniques. They simply continue to improve on, and add various basic abilities to, his arsenal. And thus, Koichi is where he is today.
Your fighting style: Karate & Jujutsu
Your strengths:
- Due to his training, nearly 30% of Koichi's muscle is comprised of pink tissue. He possess a fairly good mix of strength and durability coupled with speed and stamina. It is higher than that of the average adept martial artist, but by no means perfect.
- Koichi possesses great reflexes coupled with high flexibility and agility.
- Koichi is can adapt to various situations which is very good when plans fall through.
Your weaknesses:
- Koichi's kindness and honorable outlook towards battle is somewhat of a downfall as an enemy can readily take advantage and trick him easily if they do not share his honorable teachings.
- Despite his notable aptitude for martial arts Koichi has yet to be allowed to advance past the basics. Thus, higher level techniques, or tricks pose various problems for him if he cannot predict them.
- Koichi has made a vow to follow the path of the "Saving Fist" (Katsujinken for Kenichi fans) and never take the life of another. Thus, he fights to subdue his opponent and no more. It is easy for others who are willing to kill to take advantage of this.
- Because most people he fights are larger than him, IE his senseis and most power hungry jerks he's faced happened to be larger, he has a severe lack of skill in dealing with low attacks or smaller opponents.
Your master(s):
Ryoichi Saito &
Kaede Nakamura
Your master's history: Kaede Nakamura in her youth had gotten into some hairy situations. From the time she was 7 to the time she was 10 she had a bad habit of getting into fights. Often it'd be to protect her younger sister, but sometimes it was just for the sake of fighting. Boys, girls, she beat the crap out of them all if she felt they deserved it. It was around the time she was ten though, that she met a man. This man had caught her in the middle of a rather violent rampage. He easily subdued her and brought her home forcibly. He explained to her parents that he believed it best that she learn to control this temper and find an outlet to use it. And so, against her will he began to train her. It worked out considerably as she became the woman she is today.
Of course, it took more than just that. It also took her travelling the world and meeting a fellow martial artist, by the name of Ryoichi Saito. His story was of a different variety. He'd been trained and disciplined since the day he could walk. He was different from her, but a like. The two instantly became friends and as time progressed, more. Though they never officially married they did eventually settle down when the news of Kaede's sister reached them. And like that they were thrust into lived they'd been completely unprepared for. The rest is, as they say, history.
*Not as muscly as in the pic, but the scars are still real
Name: Milo Cash
nickname (optional)= The Phoenix (even if he gets his ass beat he gets up)
age (highschool ages)= 15
personality= Milo "The Phoenix" Cash is actually a pacifist hating the fighting but knowing right now its worth it. He won't be the first to swing, and may not throw a punch in an entire fight... but he'll happily break your arm. Other than that he is relatively chill not letting anything major bother him. The only thing that can break his chill attitude is harming someone he is protective of
history= Milo was bullied starting at a young age, and no one protected him. From here the bullying grew to assault which led to many injuries even putting him in critical condition on one occasion, so he learned to protect himself. His first fight after learning to do what he does led to 3 arms being broken in sequence, and Milo stood there with a smile on his face. He learned to control the bloodlust he got from the fighting, forcing himself into a form of pacifism in fear of the beast inside, but now as times grow hard he knows he has to stand up and join the fight but he wont throw the first punch, but he will break the last arm
your fighting style= Eagle, Open Hand
your strengths (can have up to 3)= Determination, agility, precision power (not over all strong but when he needs to apply pressure like to break an arm he puts the part into a position so it is under stress and puts puts an insane amount of pressure to one point causing it to break)
your weaknesses (must have 2)= Protectiveness, Not very strong overall, Often times distracted
your masters= Some Random youtube videos he used to get the basic techniques before working on some of his own
