weapon; nunchucks
personality;
- though natsuki comes across as distant, she is feisty, sardonic, and extremely quick-tempered. she is infamous at gekkoukan high for supposedly getting into fistfights with anyone who dares anger her. this is later proven to be true, as if she is angered (even a little bit), natsuki immediately threatens physical violence. natsuki is also shown to be just as aggressive verbally, as not only can she be quite foul-mouthed, she is not afraid to use insulting nicknames with other people. upon first being recruited into SEES, what the team initially sees of natsuki is somewhat unpleasant, befitting her devil arcana. though she is strong-willed and hates the thought of giving up prematurely, she can be quite stubborn when she sets her mind to something and can be very independent, preferring her own company whenever possible. she tends to act or say things without thinking, which has landed her in trouble on numerous occasions.
- despite her rather short temper, when calm, natsuki is quite laid-back. this side of her is shown during her social link with the protagonist and when around people she's familiar with, namely SEES. when this side of her is prevalent, she displays a rather casual nonchalance towards her surroundings. this is especially true when it comes to academics, as she does not appear to take school seriously and has a tendency to ditch classes to go to the manga café. that said, natsuki is much smarter than she lets on and at times, she can also be level-headed and surprisingly mature.

[starch]

name: something that is completely unpronouncable in english, goes by hat kid
nickname/alias: hat kid or just kid
age: n/a [child-aged so somewhere between 10-15, older in alien years]
gender: female
species: humanlike alien
sexuality: asexual, biromantic
crush: n/a
fandom: a hat in time (canon)

hair: light brown, medium length, always up in a ponytail
eyes: blue
height: approximately 5'"
weight: 100 lbs

abilities / powers: as her main alias suggests, hat kid's main mode of transportation, power, and skills revolve around hats. a few of these hats include the sprint hat, brewing hat, and the timestop hat, which she can change for her favorite top hat at the snap of her fingers. their names are a bit self-explanatory; the sprint hat allows her to go faster, the brewing hat allows her to make explosives, the ice hat freezes her body for platforms and to stun enemies, dweller hat allows her to go on and manuvere through invisible platforms, and timestop hat slows down time for a brief period.
collecting badges give her certain abilities to aid her in her adventures, such as the hookshot badge that allows her to grapple onto high ledges and the hover badge, which lets her take no damage from falling from high heights. these badges go onto her hat (three at a time) and she keeps the others in her pockets.
hat kid is physically weak without her hat or umbrella to aid her, but her agility makes up for it. she is quick on her feet and can utilize platforming techniques, such as diving, double jumping, and wall-running/jumping with ease.
weapons: a blue umbrella designed with golden stars ; can and will mess you right up

personality: hat kid still is and acts like a kid. she is energetic and childlike, seeing things in a positive light and always curious. she is rather innocent, but at the same time respectively cynical in the way she thinks about others and situations around her. kid is stubborn and largely independent, not liking to rely on others unless it's a dire situation. she is mischievous, often pulling pranks on her friends and getting into all sorts of trouble. hat kid does strive to be friendly to all, but does rely on her gut a lot so if you have bad vibes she will make it very clear that she doesn't want to be around you from her bluntness.

other: - artwork is from the official wiki
- doesn't talk much other than a few sentences, but will prefer to use gestures and whatnot
- for sake of the rp, can only hold two badges on her hat at a time and her hats' abilities will be nerfed (sprint for shorter times, explosives have less of an impact, etc)
- keeps a diary where she writes in her native language aka where she talks trash on everyone
- hope this is fine ^^ tell me if i need to adjust anything at all

[AcetheKidd]

Name: Iruma Suzuki
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bisexual
Species: Human
Fandom: Mairimashita! Iruma-kun

Hair: Blue
Eyes: Blue
Skin:Peach
Height: 5'6(HC)
Weight: 138(HC)

Personality: A innocent and good boy, who doesn't like violence or drama. He's very friendly towards other, although he's rather timid and kinda shy. Iruma doesn't like to stand out in the crowd, and tries to avoid attention if he can, however he always seem to pull people towards him. He's a very likeable person, a good person to befriend, but there may be a dark side to this pure kid
Abilities: Magic Emulation: Ring of Gluttony - While lacking in magic as a human, Iruma is capable of approximating it by channeling Sullivan's energy stored in the Ring of Gluttony. While powerful, the Ring has a finite pool of energy, so Iruma needs to be careful with its usage or the Ring will go berserk from hunger, draining the energy of those around him.
-Also good at evading and dodging when in danger
- can summon his familiar who is also his teacher,Naberius Kalego

[geno]

Name: Madoka Kaname
Age: Fourteen
Sexuality: Homoromantic
Fandom: Puella Magi Madoka Magica (PMMM or just Madoka Magica)

Hair: Pink
Eyes: Pink
Height: 4'11" (just short of 150cm)
Weight: Unknown

Abilities/Powers: Magical Girl: In exchange for a wish, Madoka pledged her life to fighting witches as a magical girl. The main focus of these girls is their soul gem, which enables them to transform into a magical girl and is the source of their power. In her everyday form, Madoka condenses the soul gem into a ring which she wears along with a typical Japanese school uniform. When hunting for witches or transforming into their magical gear, she holds it as a spherical container. In her magical girl form, the soul gem becomes a piece of jewelry, resting itself at the base of Madoka's neck. In the latter two forms, the soul gem displays a predominant swirl of pink, a representation of the magic they have used up. The darker it gets, the more impure, the less magic they have left. Magical girls can cleanse their soul gems and return it back to its original pure color by using grief seeds, black containers dropped by witches when they are defeated. Only magical girls and potential magical girls have the ability to see witches. Normal civilians see witches as horrible storms or natural disasters depending on the power of the witch. The pulsing of the soul gem is the sign of a witches' labyrinth nearby, so Madoka prefers to stay in her normal form until danger arises. She can transfer between her civilian-self and her magical girl gear so long as she is in possession of her soul gem. However, the soul gem can only be up to 100 meters away from its magical girl, otherwise there are disastrous consequences.
Connect: In the game Magia Record, each magical girl has an ability that lets them connect to another girl's move after they have attacked three times to give the other girl some benefits. In Madoka's case, she is a strong support, healing the other and generating a significant amount of MP for them, but gives no attack or defense bonuses.
Weapon: Bow and arrows. Her bow looks like a branch, as pictured above, with a pink gem in the middle and a rose on top. Her arrows are made of pink magic and explode upon impact. This is only available in her magical girl form.

Personality: Sweet and caring, Madoka is described as a girl who puts her friends before herself. She's only a middle school student, so her perceptions of the world are a lot more fairy tale happily-ever-after-like than most people's. Her goal in life is to help others, so much so that she even wanted to become a magical girl without receiving any wish at first. Becoming a magical girl has given her a lot more self-confidence, and this is especially boosted when she is fighting alongside her friends. Always carrying a desire to bring good to the world, Madoka fights with a strong spirit, although her childish nature can be seen in her clothing, mannerisms, and style. She's always the positive one, congratulating her friends after a hard battle and bringing light to a dark situation, but there are times when it just becomes too much and she can break down.

Other: If anyone has watched Madoka or doesn't mind spoilers, this Madoka is taken from [a few timelines in. Homura is still 'Moemura', but a magical girl, and fights alongside Madoka and the rest of the quintet. Madoka's wish in this timeline was to save Amy, a stray cat that was hit by a car. So, no Madokami, although I'm totally down to involve her if anyone wants]. Also, I think a few things will have to be changed regarding the way her magic works... unless there are witches on this Earth, there's no way for Madoka to cleanse her soul gem, and her running out of magic would be a really bad thing. She could have her Doppel from Magia Record which cleanses the soul gem when used, but I'm afraid that's too OP and gives some really big spoilers if explained. Also, would you prefer I stay in small font like this? I kind of dropped it in normal posts but I don't mind keeping it for the sake of keeping everything neat and tidy! Please let me know if I need to clarify anything, thank you!

➳name; Diego Brando
➳age; 20
➳gender; Male
➳sexuality; Demisexual
➳crush; None
➳fandom; JoJo's Bizarre Adventure

➳hair; Blond
➳eyes; Cyan
➳skin color; Light
➳height; 5'4
➳weight; 123

➳abilities / powers; Diego has the stand Scary Monsters. While originally only benefiting from from only enhanced senses and strength, he eventually gains all abilities of the stand.
Transforming into the dinosaur Utahraptor; Diego gains stripes spelling out "DIO" all over his body. His hair turns into spikes that end in round, ball-shaped tips on the back of his head. Traces of his checkered shirt are still visible on his chest. After being under the influence of the Stand for a while, Diego is able to turn into a more human-shaped form while still retaining sharp teeth, claws, dinosaur legs, and a tail, with a deranged, mad expression on his face. As the Stand is bound to Diego's body, its appearance is based on the form he takes.
-Horse-riding: Diego is one the most talented jockeys of his generation, and is considered one of the favorites of the Steel Ball Run. Diego's skill allows him to ride across many types of terrain and he is able to use advanced techniques such as riding close to others as to use their horse as air pressure shields to get ahead in a race. Moreover Diego possesses an uncanny talent for analyzing horses, notably having discovered Gyro's horse Valkyrie's ticks and weakness to exploit them, and being able to not only assert his horse's capabilities, but also that of other horses. His enhanced senses as a dinosaur allow him to analyze horses but also the terrain in order to secure the victory. His original, beloved horse is named Silver Bullet.
-Dinosaur Infection: Scary Monsters' main ability is to infect other living beings with a virus which transforms them into dinosaurs, but also allows the user to control them. The User needs only to touch a victim to begin the transformation, for instance, Diego grazing the horsehair of his Silver Bullet to transform the fleas into small dinosaurs. Likewise, the dinosaurs may infect others with the virus by biting or scratching them. However, should the user be severely injured, their power will disappear and all dinosaurs will revert to their original forms. Diego typically uses this ability to create armies of miniature carnivorous hybrids out of birds, rats or fleas or turn his own horse into a dinosaur for support while he personally fights the enemy. While Scary Monsters doesn't seem to have a limit to how many individuals can be infected, for balancing he can only infect 10 individuals at a time.
-Dinosaur Morph: Diego is capable of changing his own body into a dinosaur, either completely or as a hybrid of the two. Being bound to Diego's body, Scary Monsters allows him to fight against other Stands and physically damage them with his bare hands. By partially transforming, Diego can use the enhanced senses and strengths of a dinosaur. He possesses increased stamina, strength, and speed. Moreover, transforming into a dinosaur grants him vision based on movement: the faster something moves, the better Diego can perceive it and thus the better he can avoid it. But as a result, he becomes vulnerable to slow attacks.
-Fossilization: Diego demonstrates the ability to alter beings transformed by his Stand into a hardened dormant state much like a fossil. The ability can be used a variety of ways, from fusing a being into a structure like a rock or a tree as a camouflage to shaping the fossilized being into something more creative like candle holders.
➳weapons; None, aside from his stand

➳personality; During his childhood, Diego was a good-natured and resourceful kid. His mother raised him with love and taught him to keep his dignity in even the direst situation. At age five, witnessing his mother sacrificing her hands so that he could be fed, Diego developed a resentment of everyone around him for allowing that to happen, and an insatiable ambition. Since then Diego has been driven to climb the social ladder in order to get back at everyone who wronged him in the past. Upon hearing about the Corpses, he first sought them for himself and as soon as he found himself in a disadvantageous position with a crippled horse, didn't waste time in proposing his services to Funny Valentine, demanding mayorship of Manhattan in exchange for his participation. He harbors a grudge against his biological father Dario, and was ready to cooperate with Hot Pants when she proposed to tell him about his whereabouts. Using any opportunity, he is said to have married an old woman for her wealth, and in the same vein, participated in the Steel Ball Run for prestige. Diego is particularly vindictive against anyone who gets in his way, and doesn't hesitate to injure or kill them, although he doesn't manifest murderous intents automatically. For instance, at one point during the race he warns Gyro to stay away from him as the latter tried to attack him. Diego possesses a strong misanthropy, describing humanity as a "flock of pigeons", and resents humans as a whole for the death of his mother. Thus Diego is naturally solitary, never looking to bond with anyone, and in case he has to cooperate with someone, he will keep a certain amount of separation between them. Diego sees human life as worthless and will sacrifice anyone to further his goals without hesitation.

➳name;
Chūya Nakahara

➳age;
22

➳gender;
Male

➳sexuality;
Open for personal interperatation but we will say Heterosexual

➳crush;

➳fandom;
Bungo Stray Dogs

➳hair;
Orange

➳eyes;
Blue

➳height;
He stands at 5 3.

➳weight;
60 kg

➳abilities / powers;
As he comes from the Bungo Stray Dogs universe, Chūya is what is called a 'Gifted' or 'Ability User'. His power is called an 'Ability' or a 'Gift'. His particular ability's name is For The Tainted Sorrow. For The Tainted Sorrow revolves around gravity-manipulation, allowing him to manipulate and make gravitons, as well as alter the gravity of anything he touches. He is also capable of standing and walking upside down from ceilings. When active, a red energy outlines him and whatever he is manipulating the gravity of.

Corruption
Corruption is the true form of Chūya's ability and is exceedingly dangerous. It is activated by the verses: "Granters, of dark disgrace, you need not wake me again." This form causes him to gain swirling crimson glowing tatoos all over and his pupils to dilate. This ability allows him to manipulate the gravitons in his surroundings. By increasing his own density, he is capable of crushing a tank with his bare hands. He is also able to shoot balls of compressed gravity that act as black holes that swallow anything. However, he has no control over his Ability's true form; he will continue in that state if his Ability is not nullified until he dies. Once it is nullified he also passes out sleeping afterwards.

Corruption stems from Chūya's origins as the entity Arahabaki, a God of immense destructive power. When Chūya releases his stability over said powers, Corruption takes over, essentially Chūya reverting to his true, uncontrollable nature existing solely for destruction. Paying homage to his own philosophies, Chūya removes his gloves when activating Corruption.

➳weapons;
Chūya carries a combat-style like knife with him. Though he very rarely to never actually uses it.

➳Appearance
Chūya is quite short with a petite, yet muscular build. He has grey eyes[1] and striking orange hair that frames his face, with a longer section that falls just past his left shoulder. He wears a black hat with a red hatband, and a thin silver chain that hangs over the brim.

His outfit consists of a white button up shirt under a dark red vest, a black choker in the style of a pet collar, a black ribbon bolo tie held together with a small silver buckle, an open black cropped jacket with the sleeves rolled up at the elbows, black slacks, a black belt hanging off his right hip and black low-arch shoes. He is almost always seen wearing black gloves. Chūya also sports long black coat with light-coloured lining and lapels that he wears around his shoulders like a cape. The undercoat is a light shade of red.

Personality;
On the surface, Chūya is a temperamental and rather arrogant, blunt man. He revels in fighting, happy to show off his combative ability and taking great pride in his reputation as the mafia's strongest martial artist. Taunting remarks pair with his pride, as he isn't above ridiculing his opponents in the middle of a fight. Befitting of an Executive, he has no qualms eliminating the Port Mafia's enemies by any means necessary, including murder, however isn't nearly as homicidal in his tactics as members tend to be.

For as hot-headed as he may seem, Chūya isn't impossible to reason with. In fact, he's rather reasonable when no one is pushing his buttons. While his skills and presence signal an inherent threat, he's reliable enough for Mori to assign him the task of confronting the Armed Detective Agency during the three-way conflict involving the Guild. It's true he didn't hesitate to retaliate and fight back against Akiko Yosano and Kenji Miyazawa (in fact, he takes great pleasure fighting against people that put up a good fight), but as soon as Yukichi Fukuzawa addresses him for more information, Chūya disengages from the battle. Here as well, his nature as a mafioso shines through, expressing no remorse for the danger the mafia intentionally put Naomi Tanizaki and Hirako in, using them as bait. In fact, he's rather smug about it, knowing it angers the Agency immensely.

Ruthless as he is, Chūya seldom takes people's lives for granted, and knows the importance of compromise and rationality. He refrains from unnecessarily brutal methods when need-be, and has enough sense to know when enough's enough. Notable instances include his conflict with Arthur Rimbaud, the man responsible for attempting to kill him long before he joined the Port Mafia at age fifteen. Chūya fully intended to kill him, but heard Rimbaud's last words without malice nor mockery. In fact, Rimbaud's final words for him had a deep effect on Chūya's own outlook on life and himself.  He receives Rimbaud's hat as an entry gift to the Port Mafia, and takes good care of the hat as a result. 

After Osamu Dazai "mercy killed" an enemy, only to repeatedly shoot and laugh at the corpse, Chūya demanded he stop, seeing no sense in Dazai's actions. Chūya's grudge against Ango Sakaguchi does not stop him from acknowledging the fact he owes the man a favour, and as such refrains from antagonising Ango (and, by extension, his subordinate Mizuki Tsujimura) until he can repay his debt.

Just as Chūya took his responsibility defending Sheep's well-being from their enemies, this holds true for his loyalty and devotion to Port Mafia after joining. So as reasonable as he may be, his top priority is the Port Mafia's prosperity and well-being, thus nothing will stop him from fulfilling his responsibilities as an Executive even at the cost of other's lives. Fierce in his loyalties, Chūya finds betrayal intolerable, and treats his subordinates quite well.

In the past, Chūya struggled greatly with his identity and place in humanity. His connection to Arahabaki ended in him questioning how human he truly was, worsened by not knowing the truth behind why he was freed from the government's possession in the first place. While his strength lies in his ability, the awareness of a god's effects on him left him feeling as though he wouldn't feel worry nor fear in a fight, knowing he'd most likely win without a scratch. He attributed this to being - in his mind - inhuman, and thus unable to understand the depth of such emotions.

In order to give himself a sense of restraint, he preferred kicking largely over throwing fists, never even removing his gloves. He figured if he came to a fight where he had to remove his gloves, it was because he could not longer enjoy the rush of a battle, and genuinely needed to defend himself - in other words feeling attachment to the life he lived, even if he felt like a foreign soul in a shell, rather than a human being. This holds true to the present, as Chūya's only seen removing his gloves when using Corruption in dire moments.

After Rimbaud elaborated his own beliefs on humanity, Chūya had a bit of a change of heart, taking his own life a bit more seriously. The Sheep's betrayal affected him greatly, alongside Port Mafia's direct involvement in uncovering the truth of his origins, but ultimately led to his loyalty in them. The drive for learning more about himself contributed largely to his rise in rank, much faster than anticipated.

Chūya's ultimate downfall is his intense disdain and hatred for Dazai. The two never got along, with Chūya instantly hating Dazai's underhanded, warped strategic personality. Dazai has always gone out of his way to dehumanise and ridicule Chūya, constantly attacking his pride and even driving Sheep to abandon and betray him in the past. Even now, the slightest insult from Dazai will set Chūya off on a tangent, taking full advantage of his quick temper and pride. This makes it easy to distract Chūya from tasks at hand. Nonetheless, as part of Twin Dark's nature, Chūya acknowledges Dazai's role as the tactician, extending minimal trust in at least knowing that Dazai knows how to effectively overcome a situation.

Other;
*Will not be using Corruption due to it's risks and not having the only way to stop it/save him around.

*The items he was brought to this world with are his hat, his knife and his coat.

*He is known as the best Martial Artist in the Port Mafia. Unarmed hand to hand combat is his primary style of fighting.

*Like the other BSD cannons, he is named for a real life famous Japanese Author and his ability is named (also like the other BSD charries) for one of his works......typically Gifts are named for an author's most famous work. In this case the real Chūya Nakahara was actually a poet. His ability is named after one of his poems called Soiled Sorrow.
