Kyosuke Hayashi

[edit] Character Personality Skills Relationships Rumors History Media OOC Info  Kyosuke Hayashi Co-Captain of the Steel Wolves Gender Male Race Miqo'te Clan Hayashi Citizenship Hingashi Age 23 Orientation Straight Class Monster Hunter/Ronin Alignment Chaotic Good Residence Shirogane, Ward 9, Plot 47 Summary Once an orphan and pickpocket that terrorized the streets of Kugane, Kyosuke was taken in at an early age to be adopted by the Hayashi clan. With no children to call their own, the lord of the clan focused his attention on grooming Kyosuke into a proper heir. He was given a proper education in both eastern and western teachings, introduced to the lords and ladies of the upper class, and given an inheritance that was nothing to scoff at. For whatever reason, none of this seemed to satisfy the young miqo'te, and at the age of 16 he disappeared from the lands of Hingashi, presumably to make his own way in the world. Little is known as to what occurred during the time he was gone, but as Doma's war with the Garlean Empire came to a head, the fighting seemed to draw the wandering miqo'te back to eastern shores. But whether he has returned to claim his title or for some other reason entirely remains to be seen. Appearance Hair: Soft black hair, long bangs, a thin ponytail in the back. Eyes: Light blue. Body: Perhaps slightly taller than most miqo'te, his body is toned and muscular compared, especially in the arms and legs. Skin/Scars/Tattoos: Tan skin, two tribal tattoos under his eyes and one on his left shoulder, a few scars here and there. Scent: The sea, pine, freshly cut wood. Clothing: Whatever's comfortable and form-fitting, just so long as it's black. Standard Equipment A bag of holding. A tantō usually hidden somewhere on his person. A linkpearl. A bag of snacks, usually some kind of dried fruit. A deck of triple triad cards. A Flask of Frost (keeps anything in it cold). An almost perpetually laid back, relaxed, easy-going kind of guy. More on the quiet and introverted side, but likes talking with people and will easily open up when approached. Loves anyone with a good sense of humor or a sharp wit. This all applies to combat as well, as he'll almost never seem to take anything seriously unless he's forced to. He could have an arrow stuck in his arm and he'd still have a grin on his face. Beliefs/Philosophy/Religion He believes that the kami are in all things, and so everything must be respected in its own way. He also believes the kami have a sense of humor, so it's okay to screw around a bit and have some fun. Your life is yours to do with as you please, so you should do what pleases you. The ascians are a threat and must be stopped no matter the cost.

A stern and strict man, he and Kyosuke never really got along. Hayashi Tsuna – Kyosuke’s adopted mother, she died from sickness only a few years after Kyo had been brought into the household. He still holds her fondly in his memories and will send a prayer to her when he can. Friends Nyx Altus – Kyosuke’s brother-in-arms, best friend, and co-leader of the Steel Wolves. Having met sometime during Kyo’s travels abroad, the two are unnaturally in-sync and nothing but trouble whenever they’re together. Kyren Xangai – Kyosuke’s mentor. It’s not clear when or how the two met but it seems Kyren was the one who taught him how to wield a sword. Kyo will still occasionally make trips out to the Steppe to seek his council. A’shara Venai - A member of the Steel Wolves, A’shara is a Seeker that joined up with Kyo and Nyx after they went hunting for a chimera at the bottom of some ancient ruins buried beneath Thanalan. Nara Ejinn – Originally a dancer in Kugane, Kyosuke purchased her contract and proceeded to hire her on as a member of the Steel Wolves, helping to put her talents to more deadly uses. Hatano Asuna – An aspiring Sword Saint that wandered Hingashi seeking to hone her skills with the blade, she decided to join up with the Wolves after Kyosuke beat her in a duel. Gyoten – A Namazu that helps run Aetherial Antiquities while Kyosuke’s off adventuring. He’s currently attended 37 fire safety training seminars. Unknown – Kyosuke can at times be seen off in the distance, talking to someone on his linkpearl. No one except Nyx seems to know who that might be. Enemies Ascians - While their primary goal seems to be hunting monster and other various mercenary work, it seems many of their jobs always take them into areas and battlefields where there are rumors of an Ascian presence. Usual Gossip “He’s one of the leaders of that mercenary group, right? The Steel Wolves?” “I thought he was the owner of that antiques store down the road…” “Heard he and his group one-upped the confederacy and put down that giant sea monster.” “They say he ran away from home and traveled the world. Must have not found much if he’s already back.” Tavern Whispers “All I know is ever since he returned to Kugane his father refuses to even see him.” “I heard he was trained by one of those savage Xaela. No wonder he’s so wild.” “I always knew he was a no-good thief ever since he was a boy. Don’t know why Lady Tsuna even took him in. “Seems like he’s willing to piss off the Garleans if he fought against them at both Doma Castle and the Battle of Ala Mhigo like people have been talking about.” Information Broker Hearing a certain broker had information on the heir of the Hayashi Clan, you agreed to meet at a discreet location to learn more. Upon arrival, you find nothing except a few drops of blood splattered against the far wall.
