Battle is a different story. Tetsuo throws on a brown trench coat in favor of his normal coat, and puts his ring somewhere safe to cover up his hand with white, fingerless gloves. He also makes a point of changing into black pants. He also seems to be more confident when he's fighting, even more so than he usually is.

Personality: Tetsuo is energetic, outgoing, and confident. This confidence is part of the reason that he's able to do drama. He's also very creative, and his talents in art showcase this. Many people have complemented him on the originality of his paintings (though not the [i]quality[/i] of them), and he takes pride in what he does. On the subject of the drama club, people often make mention (not to his face, mind you) of his over-the-top theatrical behavior, even outside of the theater. He over-exaggerates, gets fired up at certain issues, and is [i]very[/i] passionate with things and people he loves. 

As a result, in battle he is loud, overconfident, and makes decisions very quickly and sometimes irrationally. He yells a lot (sometimes even [i]calling out his attacks[/i]), and on occasion uses this to his advantage, distracting enemies so that his allies can get the upper hand with a well-placed attack. 

Backstory: For the first 10 years of his life, Tetsuo lived with an abusive father in a broken household. His mother was often not home, because she didn't want to come home to her husband, leaving Tetsuo to take some of the un-dealt pain from him. He doesn't talk about this a lot, so not much is known.

After his father left, he was able to break out of his shell, taking his mother along with him slowly but gradually. He started getting involved in school activities and became a lot more sociable. Tetsuo grew into the personality that he had to keep hidden within himself for years, and became the person he is today. He doesn't really like to talk about the past, and says that the him from birth to age 10 was an entirely different person.
