Character Name: Hoku Lightfoot


Age: 20

Sex: Male

Species: Arctic Hare

Height/Weight: 4' 7" 130 lbs

Social Status: Outer Class

Physical Description: Hoku is a rather lanky. Having a low amount of body fat and small muscle system contributes to this. He's not exactly a great fighter; at least, he's not good at ending fights quickly. Any and all muscle he has is fast-twitch, making him quicker rather than stronger. His hair is a dark brown. His eyes are a gentle dark blue, and has grey paw pads.

 He generally wears a large-sized, sage T-shirt, and jeans when relaxing in his apartment. When he's out and about he tends to wear a hornet camouflage jacket, black cargo pants with blue trim running along the sides of his pant legs, bright yellow gloves, and a pair of yellow tinted goggles.

 He carries one family trinket that he never takes off. A small glass-blown sphere with a small, orange, luminescent mushroom inside and tied about his neck like a necklace with red thread.


Background: Growing up, he lived in the Nightlands with his family (two sisters and his mother). His father was out as a fighter during the end of the Species Wars... and near its end he never came home again. Hoku was young then and didn't fully grasp the concept that Dad wasn't coming home, unlike today.

 During his late teen years his city became nearly decimated from a virus that was contracted and quickly spread. Hoku wasn't near the city at the time, having left a few days earlier to help find resources for the already dying community. He returned roughly one week later to see the streets littered with bodies, some writhing in agony or covered up to avoid breathing in any stray strands of the virus. Terrified at the sight, he took heed to the ones protecting themselves, covering up wish mouth with his shirt, and rushed to his home. The remainder of his family lay dead, surrounding each other as if expecting something inevitable.

 Realizing he now had to leave the town, he did so quick, grabbing only essential items and left. He began to wander for a few years, eventually ending up outside the main gates of Einheit City. Hoku was admitted into the city after passing through a Ministry search, standard ID registration and other procedures. Being a man with no real working skills he found living within the city walls extremely hard. But better than living outside to fare against the environment.

 Presently he is making ends meet for a crummy living condition in the Undercity as a 'fur relief resource' for the right fee (subject to request), either gender. He also works as a tinkerer, usually working on things such as vehicle repairs as a secondary job.

Recently, he has gotten a job as a dancer at Niflheim for pures and in an undercity club called Neon, a rave/strip club.

Personality: He's a relatively nice person to be around, seeming to have no quarrels with many people unless otherwise angered. He's one to volunteer to help anyone who needs it. He finds it as a way to make up for what he lost in his younger years.

 He likes it to some extent. He uses it as a way to vent his frustrations in a controlled environment. By all means this doesn't mean he goes around asking random people to fight him, he only asks closer friends. He fights with a style that was used in his old town, similar to what could resemble break dancing in the city.


Weapons/Equipment:
Two Switchblades

A simple set of black knee pads, wrist guards, and elbow pads
