Apearance: Takuso’s appearance is a direct reflection of his inner turmoil, as nothing is concrete, nothing is organized, no structure. His usual apparel is a tan shirt that covers exclusively the right side of his torso and arm extension, with a slight turtle neck. While his left side is shielded with leather and metal armor, leaving little bare. He wears a simple pair of long black sweatpants that scrunches up at the bottom of his leg. Takuso is very skinny, sometimes thought to be malnutrition, but his body writhes with muscle, though small in stature, he makes up for it with his strength. He has a pure face, protruding an expression of kindness, as one of his greatest qualities is obtaining trust.

Personality: Takuso does not think like the average person, and never once in his life did he choose a side, for he has the abnormal ability to see the good in others, in even the most obscure of characters. As a result of this, he is always thinking in two places, and he is always looking at life in many different perspectives other than his own, putting himself in others shoes. But this fact causes great confusion within him, as everybody has values, his are constantly being contradicted by his own words, and he has trouble seeing what is right and what is wrong due to the fact that he always sees the best of every situation. But he has a sense of justice, and he knows that he wants to be the good guy, even though he is so confused it can sometimes be completely overwhelming.
Background:
The Early Years
Takuso does not know when he was born, he does not know where he comes from, and he does not know his own parents. As a baby, he was dropped off mysteriously one day deep within the mountains of Urichi, a small island in the far wast corner of the southern hemisphere. Deep in these mountains, towns and camps are scattered, in these parts, little is known about the outisde world, as these cultures, separated by hieghts, lived their own secluded lives. It was here that Takuso was left, and forgotten from the world. Left on the doorstep of a simple monk, the town that boy was left at was a town of scholars, a town run by wisemen and monks that chose to leave behind the wars and the pain and divulge in their own enightenment. Takuso was raised here, he was taught the art of defending, and grew to be wise, a young wiseman. He had a natural ability to see the world, to see the good in everything, and he grew to look down at the world, not in a hopelss way, but in an ambitios way, he now dreamed of changing the world and sharing his wisdom, which the wisemen were not too thrilled about. The monks were masters at the art of magic and martial arts, and Takuso was trained all his life.
The Mysterious Girl
One bright day, while harvesting food at the base of the mountain, Takuso came across a girl, around his age, collapsed in the riverbank, face in the water. He ran to help her, and found she was still alive, he then took her on his shoulders and brought her back to his village and got her a doctor and a room. She then stayed there for about a week until she finally woke up, when confronted, the village found that she did not recall anything of her past, she was stricken with amnesia, and did not know why she was there. Nobody knew where the girl was from, and people of the village took her in without question. She went to live with the head of the town, the great philosopher that everyone looked up to. Takuso also lived with this man, throughout the years, they had grown a father/son bond that was unmatched by anything else he experienced, but that was before he knew what love was. Takuso had seen women before, but not too many of them, the monks wisdom replaced the need for a mothers love, but the absense of pure love kept Takuso from developing in an emotional bank for his mind and body, and instead accepted emotions more than he actually felt them at full force. At first, Takuso took in the girl and they lived like siblings for weeks, but something was beginning to show, coming up from within Takuso, an emotion that dwarfed the logical mind.
Blissful Days in Darkness
Takuso still recalls the first day that a man fell, it was his greatest mentor, the man he called father. He had been growing increasingly week, and now he was on his knees, sickness riveting his ever muscle and pain inflicting his bones. His bed was now his only salvation, and Takuso remained at his side, constantly, vigilant on his watch, for the only man that ever led him to a sensful existance. Everyday, the man would continuously cough up large globs of dark blood and tar from his insides, his bones were becoming weaker and weaker as each day passed, at the end, he was like a skeleton. Takuso cried at his loss, but contemplated his last words, which were those telling him that his place was not of this world, that his place was out in the real world, his destiny, to save the world from destruction. In this darkness, Takuso was falling, and the only person there in which he could lean on, was Raine, the mysterious girl. The people had given her the name. Takuso now spent every second with her, telling her the tales of his life, his greatest fears, his lonliness, his pain, his love, everything that he had ever kept from himself. Raine was the catalist for Takuso's lost emotion. These days were of bliss, the happiest days of Takuso's life in the midsts of the most horrors of the world.
The Sickness Spreads
Another man caught it. It didn't last as long with this man, he died a mear 3 weeks after his first drop. Then, another man, and another man, and another man, all falling, and never getting back up. Death riddled the air, the stench was quite literal, as it came to be that the loss was greater than that of the efforts of burial, and a ditch at the base of the village was the new grave of all that fell. Soon, half the population was under this curse, and Takuso feared that it was only a matter of time before his life were to come under it. But it never did, it hit Raine instead. Raine now under the swelling weight of death, Takuso feared that the last person that meant something to him would leave before his eyes, and it was now time to take immidiate action. He left the town, in search of a cure.
Through the Mountains
Takuso had never left his town, he had never seen any other part of the world. His town was solitary. With a river at the base of the mountain, and fields of crop growing nearby, they had everything they would ever need. But now Takuso was faced with a whole different world. Cold, solitary, the world was different, and Takuso lay down one night, and wished he would never wake up. But his eyes gave him the greatest nightmare of all, the morning sun of the next day. Then, far along this path, walking for days, fearing that each step brings his greatest love closer and closer to her demise, and each step he doesn't take is condemming her to pain, he finds a city, out of the moutains, in the plains.
Cruel Plot
The city wasn't very large, and it was here, in his search for medicine, that Takuso came across a group of soldiers. His initial reaction was that of disgust, soldiers, one of the outside abnormalties that Takuso grew to look down on, but that disgust grew and grew as this scene progressed. Upon controntation about medicine, the soldiers didn't know anything, but the Luitenent only chuckled at his despair. In anger, Takuso threatened him, and he only laughed under his tension. Takuso then began preaching upon his ignorance, and the Luitnenant tole him that he knows more than Takuso will ever know, and told him that Takuso is only a pawn to the plans of their nation. Takuso believed his rambling was of no use, until he mentioned the myserious girl. He told Takuso that the girl that showed up in their village was his favorite experiment. Takuso only starred in fear as the plot was explained to him. A new disease was created, and in search for a method of testing, they attacked a poor and starving family that nobody would remember, and took them all in as prisoners. They preformed numerous experiments on them, and they all died, except for the girl, Suiki as their family called her. They injected her with a new poison and decided to drop her off near a small secluded village. Their intention was for her to die in the river, and see how the virus inside her spread, but that they saved her, and as the virus was passed from one person to the next, it grew in strength, so thats why it took so long for it to work in Suiki, because it wasn't as powerful in a first dosage. Takuso now enraged, he attacked the Luitenant, but was overpowered in mear seconds, and the world turned black.
From the Dust, he Grew
Upon his wakening, weeks later, he looked up to see a small hospitol within the city. At his first recollection, he ran from the building, and towards his home, only to find it destroyed, burned to the ground. Takuso fell to his knees and cried horrible tears, lost within himself. Takuso then left his village behind, and went to Usha, to find out what happened, a new sense of motivation grown from despair.
