Hyde

Hyde had no reason to accept the invite, other than to make new friends. Still, making new friends was always fun, so why not try? He grabbed his favorite book, opened his menu and changed into a fancy outfit before walking out of the inn and making his way to the teleporter.

It wasn’t long before he found the place. It was elegant, and the people were all in their fancy clothes. He knew it was gonna be intense but everyone here looked important, like big business people meeting at a mansion party to talk about money and caviar and other lame stuff. Still, maybe they wouldn’t be insufferable.

His feet felt weird in the shiny black oxfords, but they still pushed him towards the rest of the people there. He would find the quietest spot, sit down on the ground and open his book. The story of beowulf was the story stealing his attention this evening, mixed with all the people he would watch between pages.

Hiroshi had sent the message and started the quest, but now he had to wait for Naoko, so he decided to sit in the center of town and wait for her. He pulls out a book and opens the page, entering a world where he never got trapped in this game. His eyes scanned the pages as he absorbed the information and imagined the world around him. His troubles seemed to fade away as he read the words on those pages.

Before long, his sister had shown up and he closed his book and put it back in his inventory. “Naoko, it’s been a while.” He said with a bright smile. Naoko had always been his favorite sibling, so he was sure he’d have fun on this adventure.

He would then turn to head towards the quest objective, which he was pretty sure he knew where it was, but he wasn’t 100% in that knowledge. Either way, only way to find out is to go. He would start off at a relaxed pace and his eyes would fall back into his book once again. She was enough to remind him of home, but she was his sister, and his favorite sibling at that, so it was a bit more bearable than his brother.

Still, home made him uncomfortable so he retreated back into his book.

Hiroshi had spent the last two years doing exactly what he did in the real world. Made connections, and acquaintances, but never really made friends. He would spend his remaining time reading. Old stories and new ones, but mostly fictional stuff. Every now and again he would browse the info brokers network to see if he could find anything new. One day he did. The boy had gone digging through the information, and he saw the word familiars in the block of information in front of him. Oh wow, I can have a pet? Awesome.

He navigated through the menu to reach the friends list and selected the name Shae. His sister was always so fun to talk to, plus easier to talk to than anyone else in this god forsaken world, so maybe spending the day with her wouldn’t be so bad. Besides, if nothing else she could get experience and Hiro was all for helping out his family.

He types out a message and presses send, before closing the menu and moving across the tavern and out into the streets. First goal of the day... find the gypsy.

About: History/personality
Hyde (born Okino Hiroshi) had both his parents and lived a normal life. Except his parents never paid enough attention to him and his two siblings... oh yeah, he’s a triplet. His sister ended up a screw up like him, while his brother turned out to be an actual responsible kid. Over time, Hiroshi watched as his brother took over and stood in as a parent.

Hiroshi never got enough attention at home, so when he was at school he started acting out. Talking out of turn, cracking wise, disruptive behavior all around. He made people laugh and he kinda liked it. It wasn’t long before he was marked the class clown. It was intoxicating, at school he was the center of attention and very popular. But, when he got home it was a different story.

He would often hide in his room between two earbuds blasting music with his nose in a book. He often dreamt of a way to escape, without needing to drown out the noise of 4 other people. His friends at school suggested a video game, and he got hooked. He would play all day, but he wanted to stay focused on school because despite being the class clown, he still kept his grades up. Though, soon he fell deep into a rabbit hole, with parents that didn’t care, his newfound love for videogames or his constant distraction called comedy, he hardly had time for the work. His grades dropped drastically and he started to fall behind, barely keeping afloat. However, he still hadn’t reached that boiling point of a crisis he was headed straight towards.

On the outside it looked like he had no idea he was lost, but he knew. He knew all too well he was gonna wind up that one guy who’s 30 years old working a dead end, minimum wage job, barely making ends meet. But he couldn’t bring himself to turn his life around, he wanted to be seen. He wanted to be known by someone other than his siblings.

Virtues:

Outgoing- While at school, Hiroshi would always try to make new friends. The more friends he had the more attention he got, right? He spent months figuring out the right formula for turning boring conversation into the life of the party and put his trade into practice. He would often just let his mouth run while his brain put words together to make coherent sentences and it worked most of the time.

Kind-hearted- In order to have friends, you have to know how to care about someone, how to put them above yourself and make them a priority. Hiroshi was especially good at this, considering his parents cared little for him, he didn’t exactly have the highest self-esteem out there. His friends made him feel like a person and he wanted to be a good person.

Childish- Despite the hardships in his life, Hiroshi never let himself get knocked down. He would stand back up unscathed and try to keep a bright smile on. He often forgets that other people have this way of holding onto things and probably think it’s weird for him to just smile off a hard hit like it barely phased him, and as such will make jokes about the situation way too soon afterwards.

Flaws:

Absentminded- Because Hiroshi never lets himself stay down, he often forgets that something should knock him down. He’ll forget that the world around him has an effect on his life and will just ignore the details of a situation to a fault. It’s also easy to take advantage of this, because he won’t notice small details and is very easy to surprise... you know, for surprise parties.

Impatient- Hiroshi has always been a fun person, but when there’s nothing being done, or god forbid he’s waiting for someone, he can often get annoyed. He likes to relax sometimes but when he is sitting still but doesn’t want to be he can get antsy, and nervous. Why wait around when there’s fun to be had? It’s a whole world of party never stops, and he wants to keep it going.

Tactless- Hiroshi often forgets people like to let life’s hardships linger, and that you shouldn’t make jokes about a bad situation right after they happen. He also hates beating around the bush because it takes forever, so he’s rather blunt most of the time. Words carry a lot of weight, but on him they’re often light, because to him words bring joy and nothing else. He has yet to learn otherwise.
