[indent][b]Roleplayer Sheet:[/b][/indent] [b]Age:[/b] 20 [b]Frequency Online:[/b] Daily, will be available to answer questions most days at most hours. [b]Responsibilities Offline:[/b] University classes, daily exercise, social relationships, a few IRL tabletops. I won't be able to make IC posts daily, but I'll still be able to interact via OOC or PM most days of the week. [b]Favorite tv show or books:[/b] Not much of a TV or Book guy- relationships and textbooks cover most of those- though I did watch some Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad to prevent myself from being ostracized by society. Most of my media viewing time is spent on youtube, and I do enjoy some thriller books from Dean Koontz and Lee Child. [b]Why do you like to write/RP:[/b] I find RPing, poetry, and creative writing in general to be a good stress reliever and an excellent source of brain stimulation. The ability to play out concepts that form up in my brain-regions is also a plus.

In combat Akihiko uses a high powered digital rifle with a 10 round magazine and carries 3 extra magazines. His weapon scope's magnification is adjustable, allowing him to be effective at medium to long range combat. His close range combat skills are limited to techniques he has learned while offline. Akihiko prefers to conduct combat frm afar and has a calm and methodical approach to combat. Akihiko's most recent upgrade allows him to create a digital hoverboard for him to use as a method of relocating himself. The hoverboard is capable of extending short digital 'fields' from its sides, increasing the overall width of the board to around 2-3 feet, allowing it to be used as a temporary/mobile source of cover.

He is extremely methodical and calculating with most of the things he does.[/color] [i]+Responsible[/i][color=Khaki] - As a combined result of his upbringing and past occupation, Akihiko is extremely efficient and is among the most responsible members of the Corrector team and often handles most of the team's logistics and planning.[/color] [i]-Militaristic[/i][color=Khaki] - Akihiko is a very "By the Books" person and demands order and organization.

[/color] [i](+\-) Protective[/i][color=Khaki] - As one of the older members of the team, Akihiko is highly protective of his teammates and will occasionally break his norms in order to appease or protect them.

[/color] [b]Time with Tokyo Sector:[/b] 3 Years, joined in 2019 [b]Background:[/b] [color=Khaki]The middle child of 3, Akihiko Takara is the second son of Lt. General Yoshiro Takara, commanding officer of Japan's Central Readiness Force. At a young age, Akihiko was immersed in the rigidity of military culture, and the ideas of pride and duty were instilled within him. Throughout his childhood, Akihiko was observed to be rather logical and learned extremely quickly, easily outpacing other children his age. As a child, Akihiko only saw his parents sporadically, as they were both busy with government related work. As a result, Akihiko and his younger brother spent most of their early lives under the care of their eldest brother. Developing a strong relationship with his siblings, Akihiko assumed the role of taking care of his younger brother as their eldest left for university. In high school, Akihiko scored exceptionally high marks. He adapted well as newer technologies started appearing- the DgtWld and the widespread use of phones and MChips. These newer technologies, coupled with Akihiko's progressive attitude and logical nature actually made it easier for Akihiko to excel in his classes and studies and helped propel him to the top tiers of his class. Upon graduating high school, Akihiko recieved a scholarship and was enrolled in the National Defense Academy of Japan in Yokosuka. At NDA Akihiko studied information systems and computers, specializing in DgtWld Security and information protection. Akihiko was slated to join the Japanese Self-Defense Force's Military Intelligence Command before he was approached by the Gvn with a different purpose in mind. The Gvn recruited Akihiko into a group known as "The Correctors". Allowing Akihiko to complete school alongside Corrector training, Akihiko was put through a specialized version of the JSDF's basic training. Here he learned firearms usage and combat tactics- for both offline and online purposes. For his first 3 years of service, Akihiko was part of the Corrector team in Osaka as a trainee. The majority of the Osaka team was like him- recruits and veterans gathered from military academies and backgrounds. The Osaka Team worked like a military/police unit, the only difference was that they were DgtWld operators as opposed to real-world operators. A top-tier anti-hacker team, the Osaka Team were one of the most highly regarded teams in Japan, with a high track record of completed missions. Fully completing both military and Corrector training at the age of 23, Akihiko was transferred to the Tokyo team as a support unit and potential trainer for newer recruits. Now having spent 6 years as a Corrector, Akihiko is among the senior members of the Corrector team in Tokyo. With his saved up wealth and Government connections, Akihiko has purchased a the top floor of a small apartment building in the Shinjuku Ward. After several secretive renovations, Akihiko has converted the apartment to a small base of operations from which he handles various manners of activities- from surveillance to information gathering. He spends what little free time he has on the streets of Shinjuku, at coffee shops or bars. [/color]
