Highschool DxD: The Devils' Due [ENDED]

@Rune_Alchemist Roll a Dice: 1-2 for Rook, 3-4 for Bishop/Queen, 5-6 for Knight

If you get 3 or 4, coin toss to decide Bishop or Queen

@Grey Mana Zero expels all magical energy, not just Od... So I'm guessing it'll kill her

Room Number 405

@SamaraJayne96 Sorry if I reminded you of something sensitive...

Room Number 405

James Ashe-Hartnet

James Ashe-Hartnet

Nickname: Scars (will more than likely get you punched in the face)
The Violent Genius

Age: 18 Years Old

Gender: Male

Sexual Orientation: Straight

Personality: James's personality is easy to compartmentalise: His exterior 'mask' or 'shell', and his interior core personality. His outer personality makes him come across as an apathetic, cold and sometimes hostile man, closed off from other and will typically stay out of others business, more out of apathy than respect. He can turn a blind eye very easily to both the positive and negative aspects of the lives of those around him, as unlikely to congratulate a success as unlikely to console a crying child. He acts only in self-interest, and it shows in his dealings with those around him and although his temper is long, Those that threaten, interfere with or even inconvenience him enough are swiftly dealt with, either physically, tactically or both.

His core personality, however, is actually very caring for those close to him, as well as being sharp-witted and highly intellectual. He regularly scores highly in formal examinations, and has a talent for strategy, creativity and even some music, Piano and Guitar to be precise. This personality was once the more dominant one, but was replaced after the death of his mother and his best friend's suicide.

Biography: James has a story similar to many military families. His father was killed on deployment with the Royal Marines, and his mother did the best that she could to raise him alone. Struggling financially, James had to enrol at one of the less reputable schools as his family struggled by, but he continued to maintain a positive and optimistic outlook. As only a child could, he always sought to find the brighter side of very situation, the silver lining to every black cloud. Upon entering Secondary School, the bullies were quick to set upon him, his poor wealth, high intelligence and lack of a male parent providing seemingly exploitable vulnerabilities. This, however, instead caused him to form a close friendship with Aria Scott, a girl who was also being bullied due to a difficult home life, her mother taking her own life due to depression and her father turning into an abusive alcoholic.

Drawn to each other by the torment, they became each other's support along with James' mother after having her removed from her father's custody and informally adopting her. In the winter of his second year, however, Aria's father ran from his Parole officers and stole a large truck and, heavily intoxicated and under the cover of a particularly viscous storm, saw James and his mother involved in a brutal car accident that neither escaped unharmed. James was scarred deeply, both physically and mentally, while his mother sustained injuries she would later succumb to and die. Cast into a deep depression, he pushed everyone way including Aria, which became the trigger for the second tragedy in his life. Unable to turn to him for support, the bullying got worse and her mental state rapidly declined until she, following in the footsteps of her birth mother, took her own life. James was taken in by his Aunt, who moved closer after hearing about her sister's death, but he closed himself off emotionally. The only emotion he expressed for several months after that was a brief period of cold, unbridled fury; After learning what they had done, James confronted the bullies, fracturing one boy's arm in three places and confining another to a wheelchair for at least 7 years.

His aunt quickly relocated the family to London and he finished his third year of Key Stage 3 at a new school, yet the rumors managed to follow him and he was instantly regarded with fear and caution. He was able to enter Oxbridge Academy for by virtue of his very high score in his entrance exam, being scored within the top 10% of all candidates thus far, and by a little political nudging here and there. He performed admirably in regards to his academics, but his attitude towards those around him was problematic, and he was occasionally beset by brief periods of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) over the deaths of both his mother and Aria. To address the problem, he was invited to Room 405 but he was initially opposed to the program, finding it a waste of time. He was finally given an ultimatum after a PTSD Attack lead to a fight in which he broke a student's nose and split his lip, requiring stitches: either he took part in Room 405, or he would be suspended for 6 months. He initially fought the punishment, but the student's parents were highly influential and were in fact pushing for a harsher punishment. Reluctantly, he joined Room 405 but has since been largely uninvolved with the activity itself.

Ok, I'll adjust it accordingly. I'm actually from the UK myself, but the Japanese honorifics in the Char tab confused me

Conflux: Pantherigos

I can try to be a little more active, if you need. I've just been kinda busy

Room Number 405

@EurmalEye Don't worry about, most of the more prominent features are exaggerated. I've never actually lost any one to suicide, but I have come close.

Edit: Swing anything he might pick to insult by me now, so I can just check. Very little offends me, but I'd rather check first

@SamaraJayne96 Here you go, one male student. It's modelled slightly around myself, with the more dramatic aspects turned up to max.

I believe the current consensus is "IF IT'S AYONDALE'S, KILL IT!"
