Basics;
Name; His name is Hotaru Raven Vesivas. He was actually born with Raven in his name, yes. Ironically enough, the Raven is one of his favorite birds.
Alter Ego Name; His 'hero name' was optional between Firesound and Nightflame, but in the end Nightflame won. Probably because he liked both the night and fire.
Age; He's 18 years old, having just turned it a few months ago.
Alter Ego Age; To throw others off, he calls himself 22 years old when he's being awesome. He's totally mature like that, said no one ever.
Power; He has the power of Soundwaves.
Description/Picture; His hair, strangely enough, is a dark mix of silver and black, so anyone could say that his hair color was dark gray. It's usually shaggy and messy because he just can't be bothered brushing it in the morning. It's a little on the long side, his hair coming up to his ears in thick locks. His eyes are dark as well; some might say they look black; the iris disappearing within the chocolatey brown color of his pupils. Yes, Taru's eyes are a dense brown. His skin is a little on the pale side, which is the opposite contrast for everything else. The teen is also tall in height, even for his age. He normally looms over everyone else, but despite this, his posture is not too muscular. Yeah, he's skinny too. Tease him about it, you'll find yourself hanging upside down over the main road by nothing but your under garments.
What he wears is the casual bad-boy look. Hotaru wears a thin white shirt that isn't skintight; in fact, it's pretty loose. Over that is an open black hoodie that just looks totally bad*ss, something he's proud of. The jacket doesn't hold anything like pictures or writing on it, he goes for the plain style. Taru then wears black jeans with white and black runners on his feet.
Alter Ego Description/Picture; He isn't like your average movie hero; he doesn't go around wearing underwear over skintight pants with an eye-catching cape. Quite the opposite actually. Instead of a hoodie, he wears a black leather jacket over a crimson shirt that is also on the loose side. His jeans don't change, though he wears a dark red belt, even if he doesn't even need it in the first place. It looks stylish, alright? Back to business. His runners change to black sneakers with 3 red streaks on the sides and it is just epic. For his face, he wears black sunglasses so no one can see his easily noticeable eyes and he has a red bandanna wrapped around his head, successfully keeping his grey hair out of his face so he can get things done.
Personality; Let's just say that Hotaru can be really dorky and random. That's right, he's pretty stupid. He's always cracking jokes and puns, however unbearable the situation is. Heck, everyone can be hanging off the side of a volcano and he'll comment about how awesome the magma looks. He also gets distracted pretty easily and won't hesitate to chase after a squirrel if he sees one. Taru gets upset pretty quickly too, so don't go around teasing him about how his jacket makes him look scrawny.
Despite his complete idiotic side, Taru can be serious when the time calls for it. When he's on an important mission, he won't hesitate on finding out the details and will definitely bring things to justice. On cases, he can also be pretty intelligent, so don't make fun of him when you first meet him. The teen is probably the most loyalest guy you can meet, and he'd actually cut his own arm off if it means those he loves get to live. Literally.
Fears; He fears that on some situations, he'll fail the team and screw everything up, resulting in the end of his or someone else's life. He's also deathly scared of centipedes and squids. Do not ask.
Other;
Nicknames; A small nickname that he found everyone calling him was Taru; yeah, like no one can realize why, right? Then there's of course his alter ego name Nightflame. Sometimes, much to his chagrin, he can be called dork.
Birthday; His birthdate is September the 13th, which would make him the zodiac of the... he seriously doesn't know, he's too busy threatening stairs to know anything like that.
Relationship status?; He was currently single, which kind of irked him. But that didn't matter to him, because a cool guy like him could get any girl he wanted... right?
Orientation; Straight and proud, but don't think that that meant any other orientation disgusted him. Heck, he encouraged them all!
Strengths; Of course his power of sound waves and he also has brains, so he's pretty smart. Because of his build, he is also pretty fine in dodging and agility.
Weaknesses; He tends to get really angry when someone he loves gets hurt. Because of this, he loses his human senses and gets really reckless. He's also not too good with using stairs; he'd rather use the elevator or climb up vertical brick walls to get to his destination.
Likes; If no one noticed, Hotaru definitely likes sugar because it just tastes nice and it gets him crazy. He also likes reptiles because scales and claws are just epic like that. On a more serious note, he finds himself staring at the moon sometimes. It just relaxes him to look into the soft light. By looking at his clothes coordination, even a slow person could figure out that red and black are his favorite colors.
Dislikes; Something about the gloves he wears always gets to him; probably cause he has to wear them even on hot days. Yes, Taru also hates the heat and hot things like chilly. He also extremely dislikes people who show true arrogance and meanness. It irks him to know that those kind of people exist today.
Others; Mr. Stair is his nemesis. He always claims that it follows him everywhere; in other words, every stair he sees is the same Mr. Stair. Ridiculous, isn't it?
