Profile

It wasn't too long ago that Hideo Aratami was known as an idiot first year, throwing himself into danger to protect students weaker than him and showing a blatant disregard for common sense and safety alike. Something about him has changed since he first started school, though. He's grown distant, almost apathetic to those around him. Though he still intercedes on behalf of the bullied he's quicker to take charge of situations than he is to sacrifice himself and he no longer seems to take pride in his accomplishments. The image change has done wonders for his social status, although at the same time it makes him rather difficult to approach.

Pre-MUSH History

As a young child Hideo was relatively advanced for his age. He excelled in maths and sciences, at least insofar as a child young enough that he can still count his age on his hands can be, and was quick to pick up new concepts. He led a carefree life in Lunarvale with his salaryman father and housewife mother.

One evening when his parents went out for a romantic evening they were accosted by a junkie who held them up at knife point. A combination of preexisting mental instability and withdrawal-wracked nerves led the man to become violent and in the ensuing scuffle he killed both of his victims. When the news was broken to Hideo the next day that he would never see his parents again he quickly put two and two together and the realization broke him. The intelligent, outgoing young boy became little more than a doll, unwilling or unable to speak or interact with anyone more than was absolutely necessary.

His grandparents in Sumaru City were the closest relatives willing to take him in, and try as they might they were unable to get him to come out of his shell. The boy was left to his own devices, which on most days involved sitting by himself in front of the TV. It was here that he encountered Phoenix Ranger Featherman, a popular and long-running transforming superhero show. No matter what trials the Rangers faced, no matter how serious, they were always able to conquer their enemies within half an hour (or sixty minutes for two part specials). They were heroes who didn't let the unpleasantness of reality get to them no matter how many times they were beaten or how unfair the world was. This, Hideo realized, was what he wanted to aspire to be: a hero who could save the world and not be bothered by anything.

His second transformation was as swift as the first: he went from antisocial mute to ever-cheerful little snot practically overnight. His therapists were surprised but ultimately declared he had finished grieving and was ready to move on with his life. He would wear the mask of a Phoenix Ranger, never allowing himself to get close enough to anything to get hurt but always willing to step in to save the day no matter what the personal cost.
