OOC PREFERENCES:
•CONTACT METHOD: DW Message or email
•THREAD-JACKING: Just fine with it as long as the other person is!
•FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: I am just fine having him fourth walled or canon punctured as long as it makes sense for the person who’d know his canon.
•BACKTAGGING: Absolutely.
•AVOIDED TOPICS: I don’t have any particular topics to avoid.
•PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: She/her please
IC CHARACTERISTICS:
•CURRENT CANON POINT: Kiryu will be coming from the end of Yakuza 6; he is, for all intents and purposes, ‘dead’ to everyone he’s ever known other than Makoto Date. This ‘death’ is a deal he made with a government official (or more specifically, a faction within the government that seeks to control certain things) that he will remain dead and the ‘payment’ for this is protection for his adopted daughter, grandson, and nominal son in law, and the orphans that he was raising previously. From information in Y7, it appears that he is at least somewhat working for these men.
•PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Kiryu is a Japanese man of above average height who looks *exceptionally* good for his 48 years of age. He’s basically made entirely of muscle, and his most distinct feature would have to be the large grey/silver dragon tattoo that takes up his entire back and goes down to the tops of his thighs. He is said to have ‘beautiful eyes’, sports a very short goatee, and will almost always be found in slacks and a pair of white snakeskin shoes. He’s been known to wear a Hawaiian shirt in warm weather but is more likely to wear a button down shirt with the collar popped and/or a suit jacket at other times. He’s got something of a resting scowl face and his expressions are almost always super mild unless he’s very VERY upset. Or you’re a baby. He smiles so much more around babies and children. His voice is low, smooth, and deep, and he tends to speak in a thoughtful, well-paced tone. He has a Tokyo accent for his Japanese; speaking English will be with an accent. Anyone who can sense energy will be able to feel his presence/aura.
•DEMEANOR: Despite the grump face he’s got going on, there’s definitely a certain softness to him, and he always tries to be polite, respectful and helpful. When he’s introduced to something new, he’ll face it with curiosity and even some wonder; he can be a real kid about neat shit. The main through line for everything with Kiryu is genuineness. He means what he says and he approaches everything whole-heartedly. Sometimes his intensity can be seen as mockery but even a quick glance proves that not to be the case. He doesn’t particularly care about what people think of him when their estimation is based on shallow things and so he’ll be rather shameless in his enjoyment, care, concern, or willingness to involve himself or no.
•ABILITIES: A ridonkulous fighter with what is regarded in his world as unmatched superhuman strength, speed, constitution and stamina. Takes damage like a champ. He can utilize ‘heat’/soul/energy to increase the effectiveness of his blows, block damage, heal himself, and allow for even more insane feats of battle prowess, up to and including facing multiple personal armies by himself. In a row. Also an expert street racer, and a remarkably successful real estate manager. For more, see here.
•MEDICAL INFORMATION: Despite the above, he’s technically an ‘average human’ though his pain tolerance is clearly through the roof and straight out into ‘deeply worrying’ territory; that said, can heal from most injuries simply by eating.
•CABIN INFORMATION: Room 412; his cabin door looks like the back room to (New) Serena, a simple wooden door, but once you're through the door you're seemingly outside on a beautiful day/night in Okinawa. On either side, there's a stone wall with Fu dogs atop the entry columns, a wooden sign on the left marking the place as Morning Glory Orphanage. In front of you is what is clearly a backyard, one belonging to several children. From a large wooden table on one side, a soccer net, a dog house and a swing, a lot of kids have left their mark. The remainder of the cabin is the actual house, which has a kitchen, laundry room, dining room with floor seating, Kiryu's bedroom, and another door to a larger room he will keep locked at all times; it's clearly a home for more than one man. Please contact me if your character would try to get into that room!
•OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Harm to women or children will get a bigger than average rise from him, people talking about criminals or jail time without sensitivity and understanding will get a reaction out of him. Should there be another member of the yakuza on board, he would have a few triggers regarding etiquette should they break it or otherwise dishonor that.
IC PERMISSIONS:
•MENTAL: Go right ahead, he’s got no defenses there. Would prefer some contact if possible, though.
•MIMICRY: Go right ahead. He’s had it done before.
•VIOLENCE: Please do. PLEASE do. He often ‘gets to know people’ via his fists.
•MAGIC: Works just fine on him.
•DEBATE: Always.
•OTHER / NOTES:
- His warden post is here!
- For clarification: his 'given' name is Kazuma and his family name (usually 'last name') is Kiryu. The name he'll give as a single name is Kiryu and most people back home refer to him as Kiryu or Kiryu-san/han. 'Kazuma' would be reserved for someone he's very close with; his daughter, for instance, calls him 'Uncle Kaz' in the translation and his best friend calls him 'Kazzy' once or twice.
- As Kiryu is speaking English as opposed to having a universal translator on board, please note that he will be using honorifics. Also note that he would have a reasonably-thick accent which I have no intention of writing out phonetically.
