[center][Name] Michio Ueno [Appearance] [url=http://i.imgur.com/2exWUeZ.jpg][image][/url] (this is an old image I drew for another RP. The reason for the negative colour and transparency was because he was a ghost in this RP h e h. The blurry grey spot next to his eye was a bruise as well, ignore it. Sorry about the weird image!) Michio stands heads above a crowd at a height of 6'4. His hair is black and his eyes are a muted grey. His skin is olive, taking after his father, but he has a few patches of skin lacking pigment, birthmarks. The largest ones are on his neck/face (spanning. From his right collarbone to his right jawbone) and on his left hip (about the size of a large hand). [Age] 17 [Grade] Year 3 [Talents] Michio excels at piano and violin, is educated in musical theory, knows his way around a computer and speaks three languages. [Role] Manager/Tech Editor (possibly) [Brief Background] Michio was born in Japan to a French Canadian mother and a Japanese father. He was raised speaking three languages, these being English, French and Japanese. His parents met in Japan while his mother was visiting a friend, where she ended up marrying Michio's father and settling down. From there, they opened a music store, and shortly afterward, Michio was born. Michio grew up independent, being seen by his parents more as a burden than anything else. When he was about ten, he became an employee at his parents' shop, and the moment he showed any kind of musical talent, his parents shoved it down his throat. They pushed him to improve, particularly at violin and piano, letting nothing but perfection satisfy them. While Michio found it to be a chore, he worked at it nonetheless, as only when he was excelling in music did it feel as if his parents cared for him. Otherwise, they treated him more like an employee than a son. When he wasn't working or practicing his instruments under scrutiny from his parents, Michio was in his room, working with the computers he'd built in his (rare) spare time. Though he felt his future was with technology, he did develop a love of music and its effect on people. He was more than happy to apply to Ongaku with Tatsuya. They'd practically grown up together, and in that time he'd taken the role of equal parts brother and caretaker, always keeping an eye on her and terrified that something might happen to her, or that she might get herself into trouble. She was, to him, the only real family he had, and he cherished and protected her like a sister. So when the letter of acceptance arrived from Ongaku, Michio was ecstatic. Not only could he accompany his best friend to the most prestigious musical academy in Japan, but he hopes that through the academy, he can earn his parents' approval.
