General Appearance: Kenta has a fair skin color with not a blemish or scar in sight. His hair is naturally spiked up in the back, almost looking like a duck's butt, which cause many people to make fun of him. Bangs lazily hang from both sides of his face and stop a few inches above his chin. Some of them can appear on his forehead when he doesn't brush his hair. He has a slim and lean figure, not having muscles yet, but they are developing. Kenta is also somewhat tall for his age, standing at a height of 5'4". His eyes appear to be pitch black, you wouldn't even be able to see the pupils, they almost look like endless pools of darkness. In regards to clothes, Kenta doesn't like to wear things that appear too... "flashy". As a result, he tends to where simple clothing like a T-Shirt with shorts. He doesn't seem to wear light clothes often, mostly being seen in colors such as black, blue, or grey.
Extra: A small scar on the top of his head, hidden by his hair.
III. PERSONALITY
Personality: Kenta is a cool yet boring individual. He is able to keep his emotions under control, only when certain situations appear do they pop up out of nowhere. He has a small habit of being sarcastic to whoever he sees, whether it be a friend or enemy. Ken isn't one to accept gifts or help from others because he believes he should do those things for them. Besides not being very attentive, people tend to see him as a reliable person. This amuses the young mage since he thinks otherwise. Kenta can have lies and truths slip out of his mouth like second nature, meaning it would be hard to trust him in some cases. The boy's sense of humor can be put in a very different category than normal people. Only when it involves things like pain or another's failures would he even send a small smile. Even he doesn't know why most things don't amuse him like those do. It's apparent that Ken is very cocky while speaking with others. He doesn't think anyone or anything is better than him, and that's he's able to plow through whatever gets in his way.
This teenager enjoys leaving others guessing about him. So in other words, he loves to be unpredictable. The confused look on their faces just always leaves a small smile on his. On the matter of girls, Kenta just isn't really that interested in them. Actually he likes both genders since he can't prefer one over the other. He also seems to have a bit of a stubborn streak, not doing anything he doesn't approve of.

Fears:
- Being Alone: Kenta has already lost the only being that kept him company. If he lost any more comrades, it would surely start to make him turn insane.
- Losing His Guild: Lamia Scale means everything to him. He would give his life in an instant to protect it, but fears that something could come in and take his guild away.
- Needles: Kenta absolutely fears needles. The fact that people willingly let others plunge those things into their skin... he just doesn't understand it.
Positive Traits:
- Agile (+3): You are particularly flexible and poised.
- Swift (+3): You are fleet of foot. When running, you move three times your normal speed.
- Diehard (+2): You can remain conscious after attacks that would fell others.
Negative Traits:
- Short Attention Span (-1): You have little patience, causing you to have difficulty concentrating on repetitive tasks.
- Arrogant (-1): You firmly believe that you are better than anyone else is. Your ideas are the best, your clothes are the most stylish, and you have to let everyone else know how much better you are. Once in a while you openly show contempt or disdain for someone else.
- Reckless (-1): You lack the emotion of fear. Unfortunately, it is often an important cue that keeps men from doing foolhardy things. Sure, you don't flinch at the sight of even the most hideous monster, but neither do you feel the need to run away when outclassed.
- Proud (-1): You don't like accepting help from others. If a gift or offer of aid smacks of charity or pity even the slightest bit, you grow indignant and refuse it.
- Overconfident (-1): Nothing is beyond your capabilities. If you wanted, you could defeat the best swordsman in the world; you just haven't had any reason to do so yet. And surely that chasm isn't too wide for you to leap across.
- Derangement/Insanity (-3): Due to circumstances beyond your control, you are permanently insane. You may have a congenital brain disorder, or perhaps you saw something mortals were never intended to lay eyes upon, and it drove you mad.
Choose a Derangement/Insanity for your character from the lists below. Though the list is by no means exhaustive, the following options are ones that have been presented in game terms and that have definable--and most times numerical--penalties.
-Phobia: [Needles] A character afflicted by a phobia persistently fears a particular object or situation. She realizes that the fear is excessive and irrational, but the fear is disturbing enough that she avoids the stimulus.
IV. MAGIC
Magic: Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic
Caster or Holder: Caster
Description: A type of Magic which allows the user to incorporate the element of lightning into their body, gaining exclusive characteristics that are commonly associated with Lightning Dragons. This Magic’s spells seem to possess an incredibly high voltage, being particularly destructive.
Strengths: The user is capable of producing lightning from their body and of manipulating it to attack their opponents, and the electricity of which they’re composed of seems capable of momentarily paralyzing foes. This makes it easier for the user to take them out. Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic, being a form of Dragon Slayer Magic, likely allows its user to consume external sources of electricity and lightning to restore their body and replenish their strength reserves.
Weaknesses: The trajectory of their electricity may be redirected by metal objects acting as “lightning rods”, thus redirecting the attacks. It will also be difficult to charge up when weak if the user is not close to a power source. They can't consume the lightning they produce themselves either.
V. HISTORY
History:
Kenta doesn't remember much about his past until the age of 5, for he seemed to have started with amnesia at that time. He had woken up on an open clearing, one near a forest. In present time he could have guessed it was to the west of Oak Town. He couldn't remember a thing about his family, nothing about his mother or father or even if he had any siblings. Surprisingly this didn't effect him much considering how old he was at the time. He simply tried to survive in his new surroundings like any normal person would do. Days had passed since he woke up in the forest until he found Azazeal simply sprawled out onto the ground, much to his horror. The sight of a gigantic dragon was enough to scare the pants off of a 5 year old. But it seemed this specific creature wasn't fierce at all, just quiet and looking a bit lazy. Kenta remembered how he followed Azazeal all over the place which happened to annoy the creature. It wasn't long before the dragon decided to raise him as his own, seeing that Kenta obviously had nowhere else to go.
From then on Azazael had begun teaching Kenta the art of Dragon Slaying. The boy had seemed to be a natural in lightning magic so that made everything easier. Ken even found the dragon... his foster dad.. growing on him. Soon enough he started to call him 'Dad' instead of by name. Each day they grow closer despite having the little habit of not speaking much, even with Kenta going as far to having the dream of surpassing Azazeal. Years had passed until Kenta had finally turned 10 years old. On that exact day did Azazeal ask the disturbing question, "What would you do if I disappeared?". His words had mildly surprised Kenta, but the boy responded normally, positive that Azazeal wasn't implying what he thought he was implying. Unfortunately for Ken, his dragon had left him the day after his birthday, in the same place that they had met. Not having anywhere else to go Ken gathered his belongings and left their forest, going to the different towns of Fiore. Of course the boy had gathered a bit of money from helping those he encountered which helped pay for his travels.
The only bad thing was his motion sickness... something he despised admitting to and very ashamed of. Another three years went by until he had managed to stumble upon Magnolia, a place he recalled Azazael teaching him about along with other guild towns. To say the least he was very uncomfortable with all the large buildings and noises due to growing up a forest... with only a dragon for company. The loneliness he had been dealing with was enough to send him a bit insane, something he thought was very troubling. He didn't notice how much he depended on his father to keep him company, and he didn't know how much he craved being with other individuals. It amazed him how he was so capable of keeping his feelings in check. He had explored to town a bit before stumbling across a group of drunks. Even an idiot could tell that they were harassing the woman in front of them. Despite this being his first real fight, Kenta jumped into the fray anyway. He easily handled the drunks due to them not having any skills in magic, saving the woman in the process. The thing Kenta didn't realize was that there was a Mage from Lamia Scale who saw his actions.
The older mage had approached him, asking him if he wanted to get stronger. The boy had answered with an obvious "Yes", something that most other people would reply with. He wasn't ready for the request of joining the Lamia Scale guild, but he gladly took it. He still hasn't really introduced himself to the other members, but he plans on doing it soon.
