Random Character Notes: Think of Kujo’s Akogare as Ansem’s Guardian; instead of being created by the darkness in one’s heart, it’s created from the light. (Inspired by JoJo’s ‘Stand’ concept) [[UPDATE: Only changes made are to the ‘Battle Statistics’ for the new damage system (Beginner<Light<Moderate<Heavy/Max)]]

About the Character
Character Personality (Please give an in depth description of your character’s personality, must be at least 5 sentences):
Kujo is a kind person. Always willing to help those being preyed upon by the strong, or assist those who don’t have the strength to accomplish something themselves. Unfortunately, that doesn’t mean he enjoys dealing with people. Though he has certain redeemable qualities, his overall attitude could certainly use adjusting. Headstrong and confident in his own capabilities, Kujo rarely asks for help, having a bit of an ego. Knowing one’s own strength is an important factor of self-growth, but Kujo believes in his own strength a bit too much. Due to a life of heavy burdens and fighting, Kujo is both strong in body and mind. His will is iron.
Once he has set his mind upon something, his attention cannot be bent or broken. Though this can be a powerful strength of his, it can also cause him to be a bit narrow-minded. If he believes he is right, he will not bother to convince others, he will simply act on it, regardless of what they think. Whoever loses is wrong. The victor is good, the loser is evil.
Such black and white ideals may be limiting, but can also be a powerful tool. This is what Kujo believes, knowing that when one has a powerful conviction and invincible courage, as well as power, they can indeed become an unstoppable force. Luckily, Kujo is loyal to those who he has deemed deserving of his trust and power. Those he cherishes he will cherish forever, going to the ends of the earth to protect them. In regards to outsiders, he is rather wary, not quick to trust and typically giving them a more stoic or silent treatment.
(TLDR: Tsundere)
Character Appearance:
Kujo is incredibly tall, standing at 207cm with a toned muscular body. He has swept back dark (it appears black unless in the sunlight, which then reveals it to be a deep purple) medium length hair, wavy and unruly yet unmoving, almost as though it resists the wind itself. His eyes are a deep emerald, a fierce look in them, his face having prominent cheekbones and a strong jaw. Kujo has lightly tanned skin with a clear complexion, though his body is littered with a random assortment of scars.
He wears a short open cropped lavender jacket, reaching his mid-torso, the long sleeves belted at his wrists, which are lined with gold bangles. Beneath the jacket he wears a tucked in dark navy tank top. The tank top is tucked into high waisted lavender pants, rolled at the bottom, belted with two belts, one pale blue and one a vibrant pink. Hanging from the belts are a pair of blue suspenders, unused and hanging uselessly against his thighs. His shoes are pink and blue sneakers with a flashy and expensive brand name logo on the side (they were a gift from his mother, anyone who insults them pays the price).

Character Spells (Max 5 spells, 10 spells for members with 50+ RP posts):
Kujo knows no magic.
Character Abilities (Max of 10 abilities allowed, 20 for members over 50 RP posts):
Iron Will- Due to his Akogare, Kujo’s physical strength is now beyond that of normal humans. His Akogare’s physical capabilities include but are not limited to: being able to dent or puncture vehicles, breaking through brick or concrete (albeit, these types of feats would still hurt Kujo and take a toll on him physically), jumping impossibly high, etc. [Passive]
Resonant Hearts- Kujo and his Akogare are the same being. An embodiment of his own heart, any damage dealt to Akogare while Kujo is using it will also be dealt directly to him. (Wounds delivered onto his persona will appear on his own body. He will feel the physical pain and toll of them.) If fatal damage befalls Akogare, Kujo will die. Also, if Kujo becomes too physically wounded or weakened, he will no longer have the strength to summon this entity. [Passive]
Second Chance- Allows the user to survive an attack that would otherwise be fatal, provided they are not already unconscious. [Passive][Limited to one use per battle]
Once More- Allows the user to survive a fatal combo that would otherwise be fatal, provided they are not already unconscious. [Passive][Limited to one use per battle]
Toshi- Kujo’s Akogare heals him of minor damage. [2 post cooldown]
Wakeru- Pummels foes with a series of incredibly fast punches, dealing moderate physical and light damage to any within a 2m range. [3 post cooldown]
Girochin- A single, impossibly fast kick that is so swift it cuts. Deals heavy/max physical damage to any targets within a 2m reach. Due to its speed, it is incredibly difficult to dodge or block. [4 post cooldown]
Tetsu no Shinzo- Kujo’s Akogare heals him of all damage. [1 use per battle]
Character Forms/Command Styles:
Enraged Heart- While in this form, Kujo and Akogare fuse together. The result is Kujo being armored with Akogare’s purple heart shaped armor, as well as having a vibrant light aura surrounding him. During this form, Kujo’s power triples, his speed doubling as well as his resistance to dark damage. [Duration of 5 posts][Limited to one use per battle]

Kagayakashī- Summons forth a heart made of light that bursts in front of the user. Deals minor light damage. [2 post cooldown]

Totsuzenshi- Unleashes a powerful melee combo faster than the speed of light. Deals potentially fatal physical and light damage to a single foe. [1 use per form]
Character Weapons:
Akogare- Akogare is the entity born from Kujo’s fighting spirit. This being is an entity of light, given physical humanoid form from the will to fight in Kujo’s heart. This being personified either in its full form or as an extension of Kujo (ex: Either a full humanoid entity will appear that fights for Kujo, or Kujo’s arm will become like Akogare’s as he punches or grabs something). Using this mysterious power, Kujo’s attack range is only 2m (unless a specific attack says otherwise).
Akogare’s Appearance:
Akogare stands taller than Kujo at an imposing 223cm in height. It’s form is muscular and toned, translucent pixie wings emerging from its back with small heart shaped holes throughout them. It’s skin tone is a pale rose, its medium length hair (a style similar to Kujo’s own) is a deep lavender that sweeps back from its face due to a small headband. The headband is golden with a pink heart badge at the front. Its eyes are a mystifying galaxy of color. Akogare wears an ice blue toga with no shirt underneath, with heart shaped purple armor guarding its shoulders, knees, elbows and chest. It’s legs are covered by baggy cream colored tapered pants (similar to Aladdin’s), its feet covered by pointed pale pink shoes (think Peter Pan). It’s large and hard fists are covered by purple heart shaped knuckle guards.

History
Kujo grew up as a normal child in SanFransokyo. Living in a small apartment with his single mother above their noodle shop, Kujo never knew his father. Though his mother, Kokoroki, had her own few personal mementos of the mysterious man, only speaking fondly of him, Kujo always resented the stranger who was his father for them. Even at a young age he could tell Kokoroki struggled to make ends meet and make time for him while also taking care of herself. Because of this, Kujo matured much faster than other kids in order to help his mother around the house and noodle shop.
Having a genuine heart, Kokoroki raised Kujo with righteous moral ideals: never prey on the weak, don’t steal from the poor, etc. Though Kujo was a kind boy who cared for his mother deeply, he also took after her in the idea that one should stand up for their beliefs, no matter how much adversity they face. Because of this, as well as his pent up anger and frustration from the burdens of responsibility he took upon himself, Kujo tended to get rough with others. Having many opinions, believing them all to be righteous and true, as well as lecturing others on how to behave, he was never that popular with other kids growing up. Not one to sit idly, Kujo would retaliate when others finally grew fed up with his personality or were in the ‘wrong’.
Due to his tendency to get into fights, Kujo was steadily shunned in his school by both peers and teachers. Even the smaller more ‘shady’ areas began to grow wary of him. This isolation taught Kujo that all that mattered were those close to him. Other people were just focused on themselves. Using his strength and combative nature to his advantage, Kujo frequented school less and less, becoming involved in the underground boxing scene in SanFransokyo. Once he had turned 16, Kujo no longer attended his school. This he kept a secret from Kokoroki, of course, leaving every day to train rather than to study. Telling her he simply got a part-time job for extra cash (of course he didn’t ask his mother for payment when helping her with the Noodle House) to explain the sudden income, Kujo had made himself into a professional fighter.
Because of this, the number of people watching the fights continued to grow, causing his profits to rise with the betting. One year after this was when odd rumors began to emerge. Dark creatures with yellow eyes were heard to be attacking people at night. The victims were simply labeled ‘Missing Person’ cases, their bodies never being found. A few months after these rumors began, Kujo had his first run in with the Heartless. Returning home late at night from an underground fighting match, the small unit above the restaurant residing further on the outskirts of the city, Kujo met them.
Finding his mom on the living room floor, surrounded by Shadow Heartless, an overwhelming surge to protect the only person that mattered to him came over Kujo, bringing forth his Akogare for the first time. Though he had never witnessed or experienced such power before, his fighting spirit guided him through the battle against the Heartless. Defeating the creatures and saving Kokoroki, Kujo used most of the money from his winnings to purchase a larger home for them in the center of the city. The teen’s logic was that the more streetlights, people and activity there were, the less monsters there’d be (much like with people, right?). That fight had solidified something in his heart, though. He would fight to protect his mother from these demons. They invaded his city. For that, they would pay the price.
