Race: Human
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Occupation/Class: Daimyo of Northern Japan/Nobility.
Orientation: Heterosexual-ish.
Physical Description:
Of small, slender build and with a youthful, feminine visage, Tsukishima Date cuts quite a different figure than would be expected of Daimyo and his appearance belies his fifteen years of age, making him look roughly one year younger, but he is easily recognized by his infamous distinguishing features: platinum green hair and glistening blue eyes. Befitting his princely character, Tsukishima is a teen of average height, broad shoulders and a muscular yet lithe frame. His neatly combed platinum-green hair hangs loosely just above his eyes, framing around his head with a vibrant sheen like polished diamond. Complimenting his hair are shimmering sky blue eyes, reflecting none of his emotions, maintaining the bearing of a man who knows no fear.
His features are soft like children's, showing characteristics of a somewhat effeminate man, yet they possess the masculine overture's of a warrior. When he speaks his voice is sweet, smooth, and is generally soft-spoken, yet when angered or showing his disdain can become dangerous like the very hands trained to take life. He wears a expensive kimono, sewn with high quality silk that resemble the smooth appearance and texture of Egyptian silk yet are hard enough to withstand sustained punishment from attacks from a blunt edge of weapons. Tsukishima preserves a sense of fashion and presentability in his attire while maintaining a vigilant combat readiness. He moves with an unusual grace, much like a dancer - fluid and flowing from one movement to the next, almost as if he were gliding, with little to no effort. There is little doubt that Tsukishima is a man with tremendous training, from the way he carries himself to his simple mannerisms they are all consistent of one who has not just seen battle, but thrived in it.
Personality Description:
Jovial, serene and carefree, Tsukishima Date's usual demeanor suits his effeminate appearance perfectly. Always willing to put others before himself, both in terms of well-being and social standing, Tsuki usually refers to others with the noble honorific of "-dono". He carries himself with an air of amicable temperance, politely conversing with the people he encounters and freely giving his services to those who need a hand. Tsukishima doesn't hesitate to put himself in the path of harm to shield those around him and often attempts to diffuse contentious situations with soft, calming words and a somewhat airhead personality involving feigned clumsiness and his trademark puns. These traits lead those unfamiliar with Tsukishima to view him as ineffectual or easily exploitable, but more perceptive people become aware in short order that his gift for placatory eloquence and veiled redirection of disagreeable situations suggest a deep wisdom belied by his youthful, unassuming visage.
Tormented by carnage of war, Tsukishima has developed an acute appreciation for life and has taken a vow in his heart to never again kill another person and to do everything within his power to protect people from being killed, however when the times call for it he will kill necessarily. This vow is the defining characteristic of Tsukishima's personality and the primary motivation for his transition into a Daimyo. Despite this, however, he holds his own existence majestic and carries in his heart a grievous guilt that prevents him from becoming emotionally close to the people around him and compels him to a life of lordship and selfless personal sacrifice. Even with his prodigious skill as a prolific swordsman, Tsukishima refrains from wielding his great combat strength for his own sake, drawing his sword only for the well-being of others when words fail to appease. Though unwilling to simply be killed by unrelated attackers, Tsukishima freely accepts that any grudges against his past self are well-deserved; he remembers the face of every person he has wronged as a Samurai and will face their hatred or judgment without complaint, believing that he does not deserve the same happiness as others. Spending much of his alone time in quiet contemplation of his past misdeeds and future retribution, Tsukishima often ponders what the right path toward redemption is and laments each life lost due to his weakness. As such, he has a tendency toward trying to solve problems all by himself and alienating his would-be allies with secrecy so as to keep them from becoming involved in his risky endeavors. Having lived his own life carrying heavy regrets, Tsukishima is reluctant to judge others for their personal actions, beliefs or mistakes and always offers hopeful encouragement so that those who have stumbled onto the wrong path might redeem themselves in the future. However, when forced to draw his sword against those who abuse their power and undervalue the lives of others, Tsukishima's calm temperament gives way to a marked intensity capable of intimidating even other skilled swordsmen and can go so far as to become a powerful fury, despite his compulsion toward peace.
But when his strength as a Daimyo is insufficient to defend against a particularly threatening foe, Tsukishima's restraint falters and his personality reverts to that of his days as a noble samurai. Tsukishima's normally warm nature becomes cold and distant, allowing him to contemplate taking the life of his opponent and even make vicious, bloodthirsty threats. This side of his personality is one that Tsukishima struggles to suppress despite the fact that it keeps emerging when he is under great stress and in need of extra strength. His greatest fear is that, one day, he will return to his former self and become a bloodthirsty warrior once more.
As time passes during his rein, however, Tsukishima learns to trust the people around him with the truth about himself as well as with some of the burden he bears, understanding that his life, too, is a human one and that his friends and allies would suffer greatly if he were to die.
