[center][hider=Emu][b]Name:[/b] Makoto Houjou [b]Nicknames:[/b] M, Emu [b]Age:[/b] 19 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Nationality:[/b] Japanese [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]http://images6.fanpop.com/image/answers/3407000/3407940_1384197812053.09res_225_350.jpg[/img] [b]Notable Talents/Skills:[/b] Emu is a skilled gamer, in more than just the Digimon game. Online he used to play under the moniker of M, the "genius gamer". Beyond his gaming, Emu aspires to become a doctor, and as such has already begun learning medicine. [b]Card Deck:[/b] Emu uses a Deck built around accuracy, precision, and firepower to capitalize on Commandramon's use of Gun- and Cannon-based weaponry through out his forms. [b]Personality:[/b] Emu keeps himself quiet and reserved for the most part, as if intentionally detaching himself from bonding with others. It's a common trait of some surgeons, using that kind of persona to allow them to make the right calls without letting personal investments color their judgement. But that's more of a front than anything, Emu is actually much more kindhearted than he lets himself appear to be. His kinder sides can only be glimpsed when something fires him up, stokes his passion or just outright makes him angry enough to show that side of himself. [b]Background:[/b] Makoto Houjou has been accustomed to fending for himself for as long as he can remember. Both his parents had to work two jobs each just to afford their home, and with no siblings that meant Makoto often turned to toys and games to keep him company. He spent many a Saturday morning watching the first Digimon anime on TV while playing with his Cards and Agumon action figure. Even before D-Connect popularized professional gaming, Makoto was already making a name for himself by topping the charts in several online games of varying genres. When the D-Scanners were released, it became yet another game for Makoto to excel at - having already become well known on the internet as Genius Gamer M. People in real life who knew his online identity started calling him "Emu", a sort of exaggerated annunciation of the letter "M" in reference to his online persona, and the nickname stuck. Despite such a promising career as a professional gamer, something happened three years ago. The genius gamer seemed to disappear from the internet. M no longer appeared to be logging into any of the gaming networks, most notably that of the Digimon game. In truth, there was an accident - one that severely injured Emu. It was an act of heroism in all honesty, Emu shoved a small kid out of the way of a speeding vehicle only to be hit himself. Emu owed his survival to a kind but brilliant surgeon named Hongo. Dr. Hongo's knowledge and medical skills saved Emu from what could have been a tragic death, and this made the gamer rethink his life. He resolved to focus on school from then on, and become a Doctor like the man who saved him, so that the life Dr. Hongo saved could repay him by saving other lives. Makoto intended to put M and the gaming world behind him, but decided to re-enter it one last time when he received a certain letter of invitation.[/hider] [hider=Commandramon][b]Nickname:[/b] None [b]Species:[/b] Commandramon [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/digimon/images/7/76/Commandramon_b.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20090130030542[/img] [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Evolutionary Line:[/b] Bommon -> Missimon -> Commandramon -> Sealsdramon -> Tankdramon -> Darkdramon [b]~Attacks~[/b] [list] [*][b]M16 Assassin:[/b] Fires rifle for a projectile attack. [*][b]DCD Bomb:[/b] Throws a small bomb for an explosive grenade attack. [/list] [b]Personality:[/b] Commandramon is usually very good at following commands. Not surprising, given his soldier-like appearance and persona. In fact he has a tendency to salute and remain at attention unless told otherwise. He's also a "professional" - in that he prefers going into a battle with a well-thought plan in mind as opposed to "shooting blind" as it were. That's only what he's like in battle though. Outside of combat, Commandramon is easily amazed by human world luxuries, especially the flashing boxes humans call Television.[/hider][/center]
