♔Gender♔ 

»Male

♔Birth date/Zodiac♔

  »December 15 / Sagittarius

♔Appearance/Face Claim♔

  »Kotami's style and the general way that he carries himself usually makes people think he's some cool, collected guy, when really he's a giant dork that really loves his friends. 

»Kotami's hair is curly, and is as soft as it looks, his obsidian eyes are usually bright with excitement.  He's around the normal height for a guy his age, maybe an inch shorter. 

»There are exactly four freckles on his face, and his right ear is pierced, which, along with his clothing style, gives him the image of a troublemaker.

♔Personality/Myers-Briggs Type♔

»Kotami, in the loosest of terms, could be labeled as a troublemaker. He used to often get in trouble for recklessness and thoughtlessness (accidental rough playing or "too intimate behavior").

»In one word; Kotami is like a rushing river, he never thinks before doing something and always follows his heart (or his gut, or his stomach). He lives in the moment, he says, not the past, not the future, but right here and right now.

»To strangers; He's a very playful and friendly person, almost annoyingly so, he has no trouble befriending people and loves joking around and just genuinely wants everyone to have a good time.

»If you see Kotami without his regular playful smirk or at least a smile, that must mean something extremely horrible happened. He doesn't like showing people that he's sad, not wanting anyone to worry about him.

»To friends; He's easily excitable and almost a bit like a puppy sometimes as well. He's very talkative, though English is not his first language which causes some confusion sometimes and a lot of jumbled up words.

»He talks a lot, but doesn't actually say much. He never talks about personal stuff, many of his friends don't even know that he has any siblings.

♔Sexuality/Type♔

»Closeted Bisexual

»Kotami is a pretty versatile guy, as long as you vibe with him and you don't stop him from doing what he loves, he could easily fall in love with you.

♔Phobias♔

»Rejection; his parents are your typical strict Japanese parents, so he's scared that they're going to reject him if they find out about his sexuality.

»Needles; after a particularly traumatizing time with a nurse when he was younger, he's been terrified of them.

♔Backstory♔

»Kotami comes from a rather strict family, his parents are both Japanese, and are overprotective of him and his two sisters (one older and one younger).

»As the only son, they were even more strict towards him, pushing him to do good in his studies but also be interested in sports and also help their father with some jobs.

»It made him feel suffocated, like he was trapped.  That was when he began to be more reckless, which of course, made his parents unbelievably angry.

♔Other♔

»When he doesn't want to socialize, he pulls up his hood and rests his head on his arms.

»He's smoked before.

»Cares too much about his appearance. He always has to have his hair perfect and is stressed out because he's not sure whether or not getting his other ear pierced would make him look too rebellious.

♔Possible Genres/Scenarios♔
(Feel free to alter it to your preference or make a completely different one!)

»Fantasy; Well, he was originally from an "Avatar: the last air bender" roleplay, so if you're into that, he would be a water bender from the North Pole. Otherwise, Kotami is a person gifted with the ability of 'Speed' in a world where people like him are prosecuted and hunted down like animals.

»Medieval/Kingdom; You're a Young noble/royal who's about to get married. It's a political affair more than one that bloomed from romance, so there's no denying that you're devastated to hear this. Just when you're about to be shipped off to your betrothed's land like some sort of product, a knock sounds from your bedroom window. Kotami, your childhood friend and loyal guard, leans in from the balcony with a small grin. "Hey, why don't we run away?"

»Modern; There's no denying that Kotami is one of the popular kids at school. Good at sports, smart, friendly. He's got it all, huh?. One evening while you're on your way home, an argument across the street gathers your attention. It's Kotami and his girlfriend, and they seem distressed. What do you do?
