Here's my old character sheet. I gotta say, I was really intimidated by all of the cool new characters we have this time around. I was worried my old CS wouldn't be adequate, haha. Oh well, I hope there's still room for me to squeeze in. My shadow is basically the same as the one I sent before, but let me know if you need me to send it again, Lionheart =).

His eyes are more hazel (as opposed to the picture). He usually wears his hair in a spiky, downward fashion. He has a light skin tone, and an average body build (that can be borderline skinny). He tends to wear hooded jackets during cold seasons, but settles for regular shirts (but usually also with a small hood) during warmer days. He always wears pants, and rarely ever wears shorts when heading out.

[b]Personality:[/b] A quiet type of person, Naganori usually doesn't speak unless spoken to. However, this doesn't stop him from speaking up if he feels the need to, as he will still speak his mind if he thinks he must. Due to this, he does not make friends very easily, and doesn't draw attention to himself. He treats any insults or mockery towards him with disdain; ignoring them as well as the person doing it. Though it doesn't mean that he is unaffected. If the target of said insults are people close to him however, it is a different story.

Naganori is very caring towards his family. He will do what he can to lighten the burden of his parents, even to the point of sacrificing his own wants and needs. He tries his best to solve the problems that affect them and himself, even if most would say that it is beyond his power. Naganori denies those sorts of claims, believing "everything is possible with the right actions". He behaves the same way towards friends who have become close to him, devoting much of himself to help them. This is because he believes that someone should first do things for others before others will give goodwill to them. Though this does not mean that he expects rewards for his actions, only that he does not expect others to care for him before he shows his care first.

However, his zeal to help those close to him can sometimes put others (whom he is not as close to) in the line of fire. He is often oblivious to the pains and struggles of those whom he does not know, which can sometimes make him seem thick or insensitive. But once he knows someone better, he gains sympathy for them as well.

He is also a fairly logical person, with a tendency to not do anything that he thinks would be a waste of time. He knows time is limited for everyone, and does not see the point of doing anything that isn't worth the time to be put into it. This has usually made him ignore things that many kids consider "fun" (though he can still have fun, but only under the right circumstances). Helping his family and friends are one of the few things he sees as worthwhile.

[b]Backstory:[/b] Born in the capital city, Naganori spent most of his life as an average, though reserved child. He did not easily get along with other children his age. The people he talked to and shared his thoughts with were his parents and elder brother. He and his brother (Sonoda Tadayoshi) were inseparable. They would always go to school together and go home together as well. Being the smarter sibling, Naganori often helped his brother excel in his studies, while his brother (who was a more popular athlete) helped make sure that Naganori wouldn't be bothered by anyone, as well as keeping him as popular as well. Aside from that, the two of them had mutual bonds in many other ways.

Unfortunately for the Tadayoshis, tragedy struck when Naganori was 14. Naganori had went home from school alone that day because his brother was off playing one of his basketball games. His father had gone to pick up Sonoda, but on the way home they were hit by a truck. Their father survived, but became crippled in one leg. However, Sonoda died before he reached the Emergency Room.

With his brother gone, Naganori became a more distant person, though his attitude has not changed, he is more quiet than he was before. People also started picking on him more, now that his brother was no longer there. Meanwhile, with his father crippled, their family had trouble making ends meet, with the mother doing most of the work to support them. They steadily lost more and more money, to the point that they were considering selling their home in Tokyo and moving somewhere else. Naganori did not want to go somewhere different, but he knew that his parents would not be able to make enough to keep the house. So he told them that he had no problems with moving, in order to convince them to go somewhere they could afford.

Thankfully, a relative living in Hirameki City, offered them a place to stay which was much cheaper than their old home. So at the age of 16, Naganori and his family moved to Hirameki. In a new place, this time without his brother by his side, Naganori felt a little lost and scared, but he steeled himself to not let those emotions show, so as not to make the burden of his parents any heavier. With their bags recently unpacked, and still adjusting to the new and smaller home, Naganori is enrolled into Satoru Highschool as a new transfer student. His parents at least wanted him to have a quality education even if they had to sacrifice other luxuries.
