<<PERSONALITY>>

Positive:

Hero complex/Protective: Kirihara has a hero complex; he has a drive to do good in his life and to help and save people. He’s willing to put his life on the line for others, now more than ever. He sees his life as one of value, but he sees others as more valuable.

Intelligent/quick thinking: Kirihara has had a very good education, due to his social standing and his pursuits in life. It’s translated into book smarts more than anything, but he also knows people and is able to understand and help others with their problems. In real life he’s also fluent in multiple languages because of his schooling and his need for them.

Determined: this goes along with his protective nature, but he’s very determined. If someone is in danger, it’s his first instinct to step in and help save people. He’s also determined to push through and get things done, and accomplish what he’s started.

Negative:

Cocky: due to his standing in life, and the way he was brought up, Kirihara is rather cocky and elitist. It’s something that’s almost been breed into him, and not something he can do much about. He’s aware of it, but isn’t able to do much about it, unless he’s actively thinking about it. It’s not often that he is.

Stubborn: he’d rather do things alone, rather than with others. He believes that he’s right most of the time. He believes he’s doing things the right way, and unless someone higher leveled or ranked than him comes along, will refuse to listen.  He could easily be called narcissistic.

Distant: he doesn’t have many friends in real life, and has trouble making them in the game as well. He’ll form parties, but not friendships, really. He doesn’t connect well with others, even with their similar problems in the game now.

<<HISTORY>>

Kirihara was born into a good family, and as such was brought up to believe in acting a certain way. Both of his parents told him to do this and taught him how to be a proper gentleman and a man of society, for when he’d be older.

Kirihara’s life at home when he was young was odd. His parents divorced a year after he was born but lived together in their large home. His father had remarried immediately (they had divorced because he had cheated and impregnated his mistress). His father always said it was because his first wife was too weak to have another child, and the Nakase line needed to live on with more children and only his blood was left.

He grew up in a home with his birth mother, his father, and a step-mother. His birth mother never remarried. Soon he had a half-sister who was named Marilen. The two siblings got together very well as they grew up and became very close. When they learned about the strange home situation neither really seemed to care or mind it at all.

Throughout schooling Kirihara didn’t have a lot of friends. He studied a lot to become the man his parents wanted him to become. He was close to Marilen, and that was enough for him. Marilen, however, had a social life, had friends.  She wasn’t as strict about things as Kirihara was in listening to their father.

Kirihara kept on this path through his life and his schooling. He chose to follow his father and join with his corporation, hoping to someday become his successor. After school he entered that life and worked to learn what he needed with his father and his people. This kept him further from people, keeping him alone.

Minimal life, social functions with his father, that’s what his life had become. For a few years he just kept doing this, not really having anything else nor really wanting anything else. He thought he was happy, or would be on the way to happiness when he became his father’s successor and someone who was looked at by his father’s eyes with pride.

When Kirihara turned twenty three he still wasn’t much closer to his goal. He continued to meet with Marilen, who persuaded him to find something else to do with his life. He ended up with Sword Art Online when it launched, figuring this wouldn’t be a bad way to spend time and maybe make some new friends or something.

He shortened his name, planned on meeting with Marilen inside the game and planned on gaining her help in making friends and meeting people. He fought for the first day, holding some enjoyment, but didn’t see her. When Kayaba Akihio revealed everything in the Town of Beginnings Kirihara (or Kiriha) didn’t want to believe it. He wanted someone to take his helmet off outside, to leave, because that was his desire. To work, to be with his father and the corporation.

But that wasn’t happening. He soon grew accustomed to this world, and dedicated to beating it. He wasn’t going to let a game beat him; kill him (if that would indeed happen). He was going to win and get free.

SWORD ARTS

Fang of Wolf. one handed swords
1 Strikes, 0 Specials, 200% Speed, 50% Power

The user wields their blade in one hand, draws back the leg corresponding to their dominant hand, and pulls their weapon back.  They put their other hand out, so their fingers will roughly reach the tip of their blade, the front leg bent, so the user is leaning/slanted.  The sword begins to glow blue, and that glow almost seems to pull the user along.  It's a very fast strike, but lacks power, but it's for thrusting and impaling.

Vibration Edge. one handed swords
1 Strikes, 0 Specials, 125% Speed, 125% Power

The user stands, feet shoulder length apart.  The user holds their sword in their dominant hand, blade facing the other way, across the body.  The other hand is then run over the flat top side of the blade, causing it to glow yellow.  The sword gets one strike, which on impact will cause a vibration to help the cutting edge.
