"The poor on the borderline of starvation live purposeful lives. To be engaged in a desperate struggle for food and shelter is to be wholly free from a sense of futility."

Eric Hoffer, "The True Believer", 1951

Contents

Profile

Men can be pushed in strange directions by what Fate hands to them. Once he was a prominent scientist, with a wife, a home, a life. Once he was working towards the salvation of humanity. Ten years ago, that was all ripped away in one hour of chaos and terror. Now, the broken, lonely wreck that was Kazuo Kagayama skulks in the darkness of Port Island, clinging to the only things he has left: Time and his own pain. He always wanted to make the world a better place, a safe place, and in a weird way, he still does. Even in the grip of his Shadow, he hunts the wicked. But with your eyes clouded by darkness, it can be so difficult to tell who is the predator and who is the victim...

Social Stats

(work in progress)

  • Courage: Middling
  • Diligence: Distractable
  • Expression: It Comes and Goes
  • Understanding: Potato
  • Knowledge: Extremely High

Scraps and Shards

This section is designed to be a sort of 'RP-hooks' repository as well as a collection of trivia. Constant work in progress, suggestions welcome.

  • When he's calm or focused, Kazuo speaks in a markedly educated mode.
    • Conversely, if his more 'animal' emotions are in ascension (fear, hunger, rage, etc), his speech loses coherence and cohesion, though is usually still understandable.
  • Known to frequent the Port Island train station in particular, but has also been sighted at similar facilities around the area. Apparently something about the trains themselves interests him.
  • Though the trail has long gone cold, someone with determination and connections might be able to track Kazuo back to the handful of survivors from the Port Island Kirijo disaster.

Relationships

Hinata Itoh
Nice girl. Good girl. Bright and shining and hopeful. She mustn't see us.
Wataru Hoshimoto
Broken, empty, and thus prey. But he smelled like he might have some fight in him. Invader of territory.

Resonance

Kazuo's Resonance is of a very dark sort. Dark and heavy and somewhat cold, like the air in a tunnel that is not reached by the sun. Violence lurks around the edges, but also a sort of thin, breathy fear, threaded throughout the whole works. Like the quickened breathing and widened eyes of someone desperately certain that a predator has their trail.

The Lurker Beneath

The Lurker is, at its base, a predator. It tends to regard most things as food, and is usually able to make those things see its point of view. The Lurker is a very large part of how Kazuo has managed to survive for the 10 years since the Incident, not only because of its ability to eat nearly anything but also keeping him safe (directly or otherwise) from the predations that many homeless have to fear.

As of now, Kazuo does not identify the Lurker as a separate being, though sometimes he unconsciously uses the plural tense to refer to himself. If the Lurker comes to the fore, Kazuo frequently has a "blackout" period, or hazy memories at best, like one might recall a bad dream. During these periods the Shadow physically manifests through Kazuo's body, assuming a monstrous (and rather large) battle form.
