Bounty Poster:

Takao is not the most handsome of men and has a somewhat scrawny build however do let this deceive you for he can pack quite the punch. Takao's skin is an olive color and his eyes are a light brown. His skin does not carry any markings nor tattoos, a few scabs but no  serious/permanent scars. His hair is jet black and it's quite a mess too, spikes nearly everywhere on his head. Around his forehead is a red headband, not crimson but a much darker shade of red. Takao's choice of clothing is not much, he wears an open leather jacket which reveals his olive skinned body and a pair of jet black trousers/pants with a brown belt. His feet are covered with an equally black pair of boots.

Takao's musical instrument, the guitar, is strapped to his back with two strings. Covering his olive colored hands are a pair of gloves with metal spikes on the knuckles. Takao is often seen with a smirk and open eyes.

::Personality:

Hard-headed

Takao is quite the stubborn young man who is not easily moved or persuaded. Takao, most of the time, believes that he's right all the time but if you present some evidence or manage to convince him, this trait of his will soon fade. Takao will never openly admit he's in the wrong for he thinks it'll ruin his "sweet rep". (61 words.)

Fun-Loving

Takao despite his hard-headed attitude is a fun-loving man who's always up for something fun and exciting. He enjoys to smile just as much as he enjoys other's smile. Takao also loves to be around a raucous group of people. Takao is the man who always livens up the room, wherever he is, fun, trouble and laughter will indeed follow.  (60 words)

Optimistic

Takao tends yo think about the future quite a lot, hoping that it has something which will take his life in a good turn. Takao, due to this trait, is very hard-working and loves to work on his music, or as he calls it "sweet bars."He also looks at the past, hoping to correct his mistakes and maybe turn them into things which will benefit him in the years to come.

Character History


::Background

Takao was born in the South Blue, his mother died giving birth to him so that left him with his father who soon passed away to an illness he had picked up while his wife was pregnant. This left a 6 year old Takao alone. He was soon taken to an adoption center. It was a school and a home for all homeless children, Takao cherished his dear music lessons for it successfully put his mind away from his parent's death. As he grew older, he made some friends but more enemies and often got into small fights. Takao was seen as the troublemaker in school, this title lost him some dear friends. The amount of friends he had decreased as the months went by until finally he was down to 0. The only thing he had was music and so that's what he turned to. He focused on only music, day in and day out he would practice his guitar playing skills to take his mind off all the horrible events which happened in his life.

One day, the center opened up a music band. Of course, Takao applied the minute he heard about it. However now that he was in it, no one else was joining. The staff noticed this and pretty much scraped the band idea. Takao pleaded to let them keep it since band members gained a few hours of practice and were allowed to miss some lessons. The staff agreed that he would have to show his skills in the up-coming assembly. He was very excited and practiced way harder then before.

Once he was up on stage, he wasn't nervous and began to play right away. The music was awful and the students began to chant "Tone Death" and they threw paper, gluesticks and other equipment. The staff removed Takao from the stage to prevent any harm from being dealt to him. Takao was later adopted by two kind adults. The family, a week after adoption, moved him into a different school. He wasn't happy nor sad, just well neutral. He still practiced his music and still went to school ( a different school) and all was well.

A couple of years later, he bid farewell to his dear carers and moved out since he was old enough. However instead of buying a house, he bought a raft. Why? While he was in the care of these two adults, he came up with the idea to sail the sea and get his music across the sea to show the world that he is in fact a really good musician. Maybe even create a band. Before he could set sail, he needed a means of defense, walking into the weapon store with some left over beli in his pocket, he looked around. It seemed they were having a sail and were selling a unique pair of gloves, Takao bought these and headed out. Taking some clothes and the guitar his parents-in-law bought him when he was a kid, he set out to sea.
