[TehJazza]

Name: Leon 'Zi Yang' Chan

Gender: Male

Age: 17

Height: 7'0"

Grade: 12

Classroom#: 3A

Dorm Room: 1D

Preferred Weapon: Varies (He generally improvises)

Appearance: Standing at a full seven feet tall, Leon often makes a strong and intimidating first impression. Furthermore, his frequent training has also kept his build very athletic. With long, powerful arms and legs as well as a well toned body, it is clear that despite his overall lanky appearance, Leon is well accustomed to rigourous physical activity.

Leon's complexion is mostly fair, with a slight tinge of a tan. His sharply shaped eyes are a considerably dark brown and his hair shares a similar colour and is cut to a medium length. Most of his hair is straight, but certain areas, particularly the back, can be kept somewhat unkempt at times. He can most often be seen with a very light and cheery expression, but in situations that require more thought or concentration, can easily pull off a solemn or focused expression.

Out of school, he regularly wears very loose clothing, generally a large shirt accompanied by another open overshirt or jacket. He tends to wear long sleek pants, with white sport shoes. In colder weather, he is usually seen wearing a long, form-fitting coat.

Personality: Leon has a very irregular personality. Often, he is extremely carefree, with a very laid back attitude. Even in extremely sticky situations, he rarely seems to be able to do anything but smile or laugh grimly about his or other's misfortune. He also regularly pokes fun at other people, often to their chagrin and exasperation. However, though his intentions are rarely ill, some individuals find his behaviour unsettling and sometimes insensitive.

Over the years, Leon has made a habit of studying the people in his surroundings. Thus, he has developed a sharp sense of perception as well as a strong psychological insight. His ability to analyse people and the way they think has added to his traits that allows him to easily set the mood in a group setting. This, in conjuction with his quick wit allows him to able to evaluate a situation and act quickly, which has often caused Leon to be considered as a strong candidate for leadership positions, although his mischievious nature has usually caused second thoughts.

While he is comfortable with company, he appreciates his alone time, doing whatever it is that happens to take his interest in that particular moment. Likewise, while Leon is perfectly fine with cooperating with others, he will still act on his own without consulting others whenever he sees fit, leading some to regard him as reckless, although he usually has good reasons behind his actions.

History: Up until his earlier stages as a young teenager, Leon would have been said to have had led a fairly mediocre life. That said, his family, however, was far from ordinary. While his father was a simple ordinary man, his mother was one of the most well known models and actresses in China. Although his family was rich, in order to discipline Leon, his parents chose to live in a very modest society, despite his mother's fame. He went to a slightly selective school and lived in an ordinary house, no larger than any in the neighbourhood.

In Leon's earliest years of school, his teachers would always comment on his lack of athletic ability at school, as well as his barely passable academics. Furthermore, he rarely participated in class activities and extra curricular activities. This turned out to be a lazy streak on Leon's part, much to the disappointment of his educators and his parents, who had recognised his immense potential. At the age of 6, his father took Leon to learn martial arts at one of his old friend's dojo in order to hone the young boy's physical ability, as well as to develop a sense of cultivation.

Oddly enough, it was there that Leon would meet the two people that would change his way of life. A lively, loud boy and an unbeatable young girl gave him a goal and a sense of determination that shocked his teachers and parents. His hours of study and training increased, and he even took several extra-curricular activities. It wasn't long before his efforts began to show. Months later, his grades had increased exponentially, and while he was already large for his age, his physical growth accelerated to almost unbelievable levels, as his strength and size would easily outshine not only his friends and classmates, but even the largest teachers.

In his early high school years, Leon met yet another individual who would change his life. A beautiful charistmatic classmate whom he befriended and eventually fell in love with. They began dating and spent two years together before tragically, she fell ill and quickly succumbed, passing away and leaving Leon devastated by her loss. Although he tried to hide his grief, it quickly became clear to his parents that he was suffering mentally.

However, as Leon was trying to cope with this loss, the entertainment industry began to notice his mother's greater potential in the Japanese market. Shockingly, Leon's father too, was gaining fame, debuting from a single experimental album that was released into the Chinese music industry. Feeling that their son would struggle under the accumulated stress of his recent loss as well as the heavy pressure of the media in China, the family made plans to move to Japan. There, they had a much smaller profile, and already, the change in his environment seemed to do Leon some good.

Since both his parents were often too busy to stay at home, they enrolled him in Shizuka Kaigan, attracted by the notion of the free housing offered by Dreamtime, where he would hopefully create some new bonds quickly and easily.

Other: Participates in tennis clubs in and outside of school, and is a talented player of both the piano and the violin, and is in the Music club. Also enjoys sketching and is an extremely proficient martial artist.

Persona: Fu Long (translated as Hidden Dragon, nickname given to Zhuge Liang)

Arcana: The Fool

Persona Appearance: Zhuge Liang was a famous strategist for the Shu kingdom in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms novels/history. Liang appears as a young Chinese man, with medium length black hair, sharp eyes, and a standard Chinese goatee. He is dressed in Chinese robes with very long sleeves, and always carries a fan, made exquisitely with long crane feathers. His regular face can seem analytical and calculating, and his personality contradicts Leon's, more often showing his calm attitude than that of his energetic or mischevious side.

Persona Element: Almighty, no special strengths or weaknesses in any element.

Persona Type: While not having many offensive physical attacks, Liang is an all-rounder in the magic department, with some versatility in both elements and types, using both offensive spells and defensive buffs that usually affect a large number of people, due to his experience in dealing with soldiers. However, while he can use a couple offensive spells, they are relatively weak, so he specialises in his ability to cause status ailments.

Persona Skill List:

One man's tenacity - Fu Long increases Leon's reflexes, allowing him to make decisions more rapidly, and react faster. Increases Leon's Luck/Defence.

A Southeastern Wind - Fu Long calls on his magic ability and his knowledge of the weather to call forth a Southeasterly wind. Removes status ailments from all allies.

Ambush - Sends a volley of magic arrows to fall from the sky and strike the enemy. Light damage to all enemies and has a chance of inflicting fear.

Yep, time skip sounds good to me...I don't think you want to eat the sushi omelet that Armada's planning, yet...>_>...

Quick notice for those who weren't there to catch it on the Reserve forums: When narrating, I refer to characters by their last names, so I call mine Armada and Ikeda...I'm just different like that...And if I make a mistake on which name is which, just send me a violent reminder...
