Despite being Existentially Nihilistic, Nihiri is quite positive, and carries a mentality and philosophy that he isn't quite capable of placing into words. He believes existence to be insignificant, but not without personal value. His personal ideology is formed by his life-long depression combined with his refusal to give in to aforementioned Illness. It's product being a humble, content personality. He is rarely aggravated due to his immense sympathy of other's perspective, and often provides encouragement in a method much different from others. Aside from his strange perspective, he is deeply loyal to people he develops relationships with, and often crosses his own moral boundaries for their sake. He strives continuously to be supportive of those around him, and his ability to offer constructive criticism has lead him to become a social Father Figure, capable of giving advice and guidance without hostility to those who ignore it. Most simply, he is a man of enormous understanding and patience, forever determined to be a pillar of support.[/color] [h3][color=gray]~[/color][color=black]History[/color][color=gray]~[/color][/h3] [color=black] Nihiri was born by a single mother in a small farming Town, one with less than two hundred inhabitants that believed strongly in creating a unified community. Every face was familiar and friendly, but none more so than that of his grandfather. His grandfather had been drafted into a Naval Battle at 19, and was Employed as a Mechanic during his first tour, and a chef during his second. With the skills he acquired during his service, he became a Pillar of his community, happy to lend a helping hand without needing to be asked. Nihiri showed little interest in Mechanics, so his grandfather passed his amazing culinary skills to him, and he excelled. At the age of 10, he was regarded as one of the best cooks in Japan, albeit only by his fellow villagers. His Grandfather was the only Father he ever knew, and he was devastated when he learned his mother had decided to move to a larger city, hours away. The drastic change in Nihiri's life paved the way for his depression to grow, and at the age of Twelve he had become so deeply influenced that he began to see therapists, none of whom could help an angry child that refused to acknowledge his emotions. His Mother soon stopped the appointments, as she couldn't afford a service Nihiri refused, and soon became so busy with work that Nihiri rarely saw her for more than a few hours a week. The isolation only furthered the progress of his Depression, and he began to eat less and less, becoming very pale and sickly. After two years, his depression took a drastically aggressive turn, and he began to self-harm to bring relief to the turmoil he felt. At the age of 14, and after three prior hospitalizations, he attempted a suicide that was so drastic it nearly killed him, and had he not been flown to a much larger hospital, it would have been lethal. Due to the severity of his attempt, he was admitted to a long term-facility that he would have remained in for two years, had his Grandfather not appeared to assist with his recovery. With the Help and Encouragement of his Grandfather, Nihiri was treated and kept for observation for less than a month, and completely reversed his Illness. After a year, things returned to normal, and Nihiri began to develop an affinity for supporting and helping people of all walks of life, regardless of their influence on him. Having finally achieved a comfort in his past, he began to wear his arms openly, no longer ashamed of the large vertical scars up his arms. Soon after, he began to have episodes in which he would feel a hot, excruciating pain on the length of the scar. He saw multiple Doctors to try and assess the cause, each as confused as the last, until in an urge of desperation, he visited an acclaimed witch doctor on his own, without his mother or family knowing. The Witch Doctor knew what was happening to him the moment she touched his scars, and told him to focus on the pain exclusively, to silence everything surrounding him until he was one with the pain. When he did so, his scars turned a dark black that spread across his forearms and up onto his hands, forming long, sharp claws over his fingers. He watched in horror as it spread past his elbows, covering the entirety of his arms in dark, obsidian like metal, with an electric blue pulsating from the spaces between. By the age of 17, he had learned how to summon forth his magic, and how to dispel it, but believed he had yet to achieve even a tenth of the power it granted him. Then, one day, he received an invitation to a School that would teach him his own potential, and he couldn't pack fast enough.

The magic used for his arms is much like a Muscle, over-usage tires him exponentially, but the more he uses them, the stronger his magic becomes.[/color][color=gray]~[/color] [h3][color=gray]~[/color][color=black]Inventory[/color][color=gray]~[/color][/h3] [color=black] [color=gray]~[/color] A single Black-Ink Pen [color=gray]~[/color]An Old, Worn Zippo with a man Fishing carved onto it's case that belonged to his Grandfather[color=gray]~[/color] [color=gray]~[/color]A small, black, leather bound Memo book he keeps in his Back Left Pocket[color=gray]~[/color] [color=gray]~[/color]A Black Cigarette Case filled with unfiltered cigarettes and a matchbook that he keeps in his back right Pocket.[color=gray]~[/color] [/color] [/center][/hider]
