Raiku

Character Name: Raiku
Character Age: 14

Body Appearance:

Spoiler:

The youth stands at a height of 5'3", which is somewhat short for his age, but he is getting there. He weighs around 110 lbs, since the last time he checked, and has a slim build. He owns a pair of ocean blue eyes, with flecks of sky blue located inside of them. Rai's hair is rather messy, or "fluffly" according to certain individuals from his past, and is a deep crimson in color.

Basic clothing appearance: For a basic attire, Raiku tends to wear shorts, sandals, and sweatshirts with bandages around his arms. He is mostly seen in a purple sweatshirt on his upper body, a black t-shirt placed underneath. On his arms are bandages which are merely meant to be a part of his fashion. His lower body usually consists of brown shorts with black and teal sandals on his feet, a pair that reach only centimeters below his knees.

Basic History: If one were to ask Raiku for a short description of his history, the boy would not be able to answer, for he does not even know himself. Yes, he has amnesia, and has had amnesia since four years ago when a terrible accident occurred. To start, Rai was born into a normal family of shinobi located within the Fire Country. He was the one and only child of a young couple, a duo that loved their son to death. He was spoiled with sweets and treats, toys and clothes, anything he asked for was given to him on a silver platter. In his world, he was king, and there was no equal. However, Rai's mother was worried about his father, suspicious even. By the time their son was of  nine years, the father started staying out longer than normal. By the time he'd come home, the house would be dark, and everyone else would be tucked in and asleep. It was beginning to make Rai's mother paranoid.

Around this time, there was talk of the Fire Daimyo's life being threatened. Many times was it implied his his family was to blame. It was because of this Rai's life was instantly shattered, for the day came where his father was claimed to be guilty of attempting to assassinate the Fire Daimyo. Raiku begged for his father to say no, and the boy's mother was probably doing the same, but unfortunately things never go as planned. His father confessed and was immediately dragged away from his small family, his family who was crying as he left, who was begging him not to leave. The final goodbye they received was a chuckle and a warm smile. A smile. If there was one thing that could possibly stay in Raiku's mind, amnesia or not, it was a smile that he could never burn from his memory. Not even if he tried to destroy the image.

Although it seemed to be the end, fate was not finished with Raiku as of yet. The individuals his father was associated with, the ones who were dead set on the Daimyo's death deemed his father a traitor. Nothing more nothing else. What could possibly be better revenge than taking out his family? To add onto the misfortune, his mother had gained an illness at the time, which lowered her normal abilities immensely. The night they attacked, a year after Rai's father was taken away, was a cool night with the full moon evident in the sky, which illuminated the world in a soft white glow. They had infiltrated his home, and his mother, with her experience thankfully noticed. She rushed the both of them into a room, and had Raiku hide himself within a closet with blinds. The enemies had forced themselves into the room after Rai was hidden from view, and the battle against his mother began. She charged, and took down one of the six. A kunai was stabbed into her back. Another one taken down, another kunai...

Two more, two kunai, 4 shuriken. By the time there were two men left, his mother had a total of 8 weapons penetrating her body. She continued onwards anyway, and battled the remaining villains. However, her illness had gotten the best of her and she was easily disposed of. Raiku could hear his mother's screams, and see through the blinds, see her torture. Eventually, she was decapitated. Blood splattered all over the floor, some managing to hit Rai's face. The two criminals, weakened from their fight, left the house, leaving a ten year old boy alone. Alone. Crying. Devestated. His horror was so great, the next day, his mind blocked out the events that had ocurred to him. From the very day he was born, to the end of it all. With nothing to return to, the youth collected what he believed to be his belongings, trying to ignore the strange corpse that made his head hurt and eyes sting. From then on, he traveled alone, carrying what was stuffed into his bag and the clothes on his back.

Personality: In short, the best term that could be used to describe Raiku is selfish. He always looks out for himself, and refuses to care for another individual unless heavily swayed. These feelings can range from very simple things to the most important of matters, such as not giving someone a sip of his water because "he doesn't want to." He can also be very stubborn, both in and outside of combat. Now, this can be a good and bad thing all at once. Rai doesn't bow down to anyone who deems themselves stronger than he, or do something he completely against. However, there are times when you have to make the right decision, and his stubborn attitude can hinder his ability to do so. So far, these are the only traits that anyone can pick up off the bat, for the youth doesn't interact with much people.

Goals/Aims/Dreams: For now, to improve himself and become the best out there while regaining his memories, but this is subject to change during rp.
