[b]Name:[/b] [color=lightblue]Hiro Nagaya[/color]
[b]Age:[/b] [color=lightblue]23[/color]

[b]Psychological Analysis:[/b] [color=lightblue]At his best, Hiro's abrasive and blunt, a master of clinical explanations and logical, if unfeeling, analyses. However, at his worst, Hiro amplifies his considerable intelligence and sizable paranoia to morph into a puddle of anxious, crackling electricity; due to his line of work, anxiety remains at a constant high, which means Hiro usually falls into the latter category of his core personality. He's prone to panic attacks and fits of rage, and he's always on guard. To him, everyone is an enemy with ulterior motives, which completely depletes his ability to trust anyone on an emotional level. As a matter of fact, Hiro trusts no one but himself, though he's gotten better at hiding his apathy for most other lives. He holds natural sway over people due to the pervasive aura of self-confidence (however false it may be) he emits, but for obvious reasons, Hiro prefers to work alone. He is, however, willing to override his introversion in order to go down the most lucrative path, whether that means safety or whatever little power not controlled by mega-corporations. Hiro is also extremely cautious and secretive, but his paranoia prompts him to learn as much as possible about anyone he interacts with; he tends to weave conversations away from himself and compulsively lie about his background in order to protect himself.[/color]
 
[b]Employment Record:[/b] [color=lightblue]Hiro had been born conventional. His parents made a living as glorified wage-slaves, eking out a sub-par income by serving one of the Tokyo District's top manufacturers of standardized cybernetic enhancements, which in turn was controlled by Neo-Japan's largest mega-corporation. Like the majority of the population, Hiro spent his formative years crammed into a shoebox apartment; his mother taught him how to write when he was four, and whatever scraps of paper he could find as a child were filled with complaints of "it smells" and "the sink leaks" and "there are rats under the floorboards". Even as a child, he displayed symptoms of anxiety, jittery pale hands twitching and thin legs shaking incessantly to an internal beat as soon as he opened his eyes in the morning. He woke up early, dreams of rats crawling across his chest startling him awake (one day, he woke up early enough to realize that those rats were not, in fact, just nightmares). Despite the poor living conditions, Hiro led a completely normal childhood. He went to school and learned about the benefits of consumerism and coloring within the sharply-drawn lines, but despite the traditions and rules heavily enforced by all sectors of society, Hiro was plagued with purposelessness.

By the time he turned eighteen, Hiro had established himself as a fantastic, if somewhat distracted, student and a generally productive member of society. Upon graduation from school, several corporations had expressed interest in him; he had the potential to become an biomechanical engineer, designing the same cyber-bodies his parents assembled for 10 hours a day, or a doctor, or even a politician. Instead, he turned to chem dealing with low-level hacking on the side. Hiro had always been very logical and analytical, able to sit down and solve a complicated problem, but rather than using those particular skills in more conventional pursuits, he assumed that the black market would make him far more money (and therefore grant him far more happiness) than spending his life rotting away for whatever mega-corp hired him. So one day he woke up, kissed his parents on the cheeks, and packed ship in favor of the underground.

The first year was a struggle to survive, but eventually Hiro developed a more potent formula for a powerful street chem and immediately began to rake in credits. His presence as a drug slinger eventually grabbed the attention of a group of Ronin who recruited him to their team as a makeshift tech guru and assassin's apprentice. Hiro, though physically fit and relatively strong, proved far better at trapping victims than manhandling them; his skills leaned towards distraction, chem-use, and stealth rather than pure punching power, and generally speaking he preferred speedy captures and swift slits of the throat to pools of blood and dozen-body massacres. Hiro stayed with the team he was initially recruited into for several years before a more lucrative opportunity split the group apart; alone and unwilling to go back to selling chems as a full-time occupation, he joined his second and current team, which he has been a part of for two years.[/color]

[b]Enhancement:[/b]
[list]
[*][color=lightblue]A-Grade Cyber Ears 10,000Cr[/color] - Hiro's inner ears are completely replaced with cybertech which greatly enhance his hearing. Specifically, Hiro is able to hear sounds far above and beyond the decibel ranges typically audible to humans from a distance of up to 1,000 yards. His ears also sense electrical coronas and magnetic signals; in order to control their volume and sensitivity, Hiro had a switch installed on the back of each of his ears. When particularly annoyed, Hiro can effectively put the world on mute.[/list]
 [b]Equipment:[/b]
[list]
[*][color=lightblue]Combat Grade Armor 5,000Cr[/color] - Hiro sports fairly lightweight camouflage armor which covers his entire body, even his head. Though it makes him a bit clunkier than he finds comfortable, Hiro is still able to move around decently while being much more heavily protected than he is while wearing his preferred stealth coat.

[*][color=lightblue]Stealth Coat 5,000Cr[/color] - Even when not on a mission, Hiro tends to wear this extremely long black coat, which covers his shoulders down to his ankles. Surprisingly, despite its length, walking is easy due to the lightweight nano-fabric.
[*][color=lightblue]A-Grade Assault Rifle 5,000Cr[/color] - When not using his energy daggers, which are his primary weapons of choice, Hiro shoots an impressively high-quality assault rifle. Hiro's rifle has smart-aim, recoil adjustment, 40x magnification, and a long barrel and magazine which fits 50 rounds easily. Though the rifle comes with an extremely advanced silencer, it is not exactly a stealth weapon and Hiro only uses it in direct combat.
[*][color=lightblue]B-Grade Semi-Automatic Pistol 1,000Cr[/color] - As a secondary firearm, Hiro carries a durable pistol. Its light weight and small size make it less accurate, but it remains powerful especially in close-range combat. The pistol also comes with a powerful silencer and is easy to conceal.
[*][color=lightblue]E-Nade x2 250Cr [/color]
[*][color=lightblue]Energy Dagger x2 5,000Cr[/color] - Typically hidden by his stealth cloak or neatly sheathed in a specially-made compartment in his combat armor are two energy daggers. These are far more lightweight and therefore easier to maneuver than their metal counterparts but are just as, if not more, deadly. Because Hiro wields a dagger in each hand, he is able to stab quickly and efficiently from both directions.
[*][color=lightblue]Jetmatic Personal Transport Unit 10,000Cr[/color] - This device straps onto Hiro's back with sturdy magnetic clasps. It weighs about ten pounds and is relatively small, about the size of a schoolchild's backpack. When switched on (a button is situated inconspiciously on his left shoulder pad), the Jetmatic propels Hiro up into the air either vertically or horizontally, allowing him to traverse the roads and skylines of Neo-Japan without much effort. Hiro can control the trajectory of this by angling his body in whichever direction he wishes; to shut it off, Hiro simply has to press the same button again. A similar button on his right shoulder pad unleashes a firm grappling hook for easier landing. For short distances, the Jetmatic also contains a jump-pack and shock absorbers for longer, more dangerous jumps.
[*][color=lightblue]High Quality Forged IDENT Card 2,500Cr[/color] - Hiro's IDENT card is so well-made that only a trained specialist would be able to tell it apart from a real one.
[*][color=lightblue]Hacking set (Trade Tools) 1,000Cr[/color] - Because Hiro specializes mainly in hacking and stealth, these tools are composed of materials used to supplement his hacking ability. Mainly, this kit contains high-quality technology in which versatile programming templates have been encoded for quick use and tweaking.
