Real name: Dan Itezaki
Age: 18
Appearance: He's actually very shy and when he's put on the spot, he tends to choke up.
Personality: Dan is Hot-Blooded. There's no dancing around that topic. Give him the moment and he'll shout out to the heavens about his burning passion. Because of his upbringing, he's actually very shy and when he's put on the spot, he tends to choke up. He believes to have difficulty making and keeping friends. However, when it comes to fictional characters, he's more than willing to talk with them, even protect them if need be.
History: Dan used to live in Japan where he lived a pretty normal kid life, albeit with divorced parents. He lived like this until his mom, Yumi Yajirushi, fell in love with a famous author, Todoroshi Itezaki. Dan liked Todoroshi's work even before his mom met him, so he was fine with it. However, when they married, things changed. His mom and him changed their last names to Itezaki. Not really the worst thing to happen to him, but something else loomed. Todoroshi hit writer's block, and his solution is to go for greener pastures and hit up America.
Moving to America was perhaps the biggest change in Dan's life. It completely shattered him as he had to learn English, make new friends, and adapt to America's system. This could be the main reason why Dan is the Shrinking Violet he is now. However, that changed when he went to his new high school and was approached by an equally shy girl. To his delight, she knew how to speak Japanese (if only to watch anime without subs) and the two formed a bond. Eventually, she offered Dan to join the School Drama Club, to which he did. It was this bond that helped him learn more of the English language to the point where his dialect is no different than a native to America.
His time acting out plays combined with Todoroshi's stories helped fill the empty void in his heart that had formed when he moved. There is a side effect though. While it filled the void, it also added a new one: a desire. His desire? To escape into other worlds. Fortunately, it wasn't a big enough desire for his parents to be concerned about. In fact, Todoroshi likes Dan's newfound Escapism.
Starting items: Todoroshi's newest book, "The Frozen Tears Of A Big Hero", a modern English script to Macbeth (with Maccuff's lines highlighted in yellow), and a bowtie that Yumi gave him on his first day of school ("Boutaizu Aru Kuru" she told him.)
Ability: Along with those items, Dan also has, upon traveling, a Zodiarts Switch (possibly given to him by a Horoscopes). This Switch allows him to transform into the Arrow-based monster known as the Sagitta Zodiarts. Its initial ability is to fire arrow-shaped energy bolts at people. The Zodiarts Switch reacts to emotions, positive or negative, and will achieve the "Last One" phase once those emotions become so powerful that it's as if the user wishes to cease its existence as a human. Upon this, the human permanently becomes a Zodiarts. However... there is are ways to become human again.
