FIRST IMPRESSIONS

⯌ Visual: Reference. Japanese; 5'3; red hair in an asymmetrical cut; blue eyes; fair skin.

⯌ Aural: Voiced by Kishou Taniyama; rough cadence with a tendency to roll his Rs; screams a lot; sample with spoilers for seasons 2 and 3 of BSD.

⯌ Fashion: Always wearing his hat, gloves, and collar. Otherwise he favors vests, jackets, overcoats. Generally, he dresses like a stereotypical 1940s gangster by way of anime.

⯌ Demeanor: Idles at a pretty calm baseline, but is easily riled up. Blunt, belligerent and easily given to violence when he's worked up. Surprisingly well-behaved otherwise.

PERMISSIONS

Post-1940ish characters that are Japanese and/or literature nerds are welcome to recognize his name, their surface level physical resemblances (namely the short stature and inclination towards hats), and that the name of Chuuya-the-character's ability (Upon the Tainted Sorrow) comes from the title of one of Chuuya-the-person's poems.

DETAILS

⯌ Mental: On the surface, a pretty average guy. Digging deeper will reveal two distinct oddities, however.

First, there is a second, dubiously sentient entity buried deep down inside him. Its exact nature will be extremely difficult to discern, 'touching' it will be extremely overwhelming and uncomfortable, and it's not even entirely clear if it's fully separate from Chuuya or not.

Second, Chuuya has no memories from before he was 7 years old. More distinctly, there's noting to indicate that memories from before he was 7 ever even existed.
