[/b]

• Lively - As a person with new resolution to become the absolute best he could be and live with what he has, Kitami is very lively. He is active, assertive and holds a somewhat fiery passion to his words and actions, something which very much proves him worthy of being the tough soccer club's captain, despite not being the best player.
  
  
• Determined - As mentioned above, Kitami had found a new resolution to stick with. He does not give up easily at all and will stick to the target, even if it is not in sight anymore or if his methods seem somewhat unrelated or indirect. It could get back on him through a one-track-mind hypothesis, but surprisingly Kitami can in fact consider another two or three side-details when focusing on one thing.
  
  
• Jolly - Kitami is a happy man. He simply tends to smile and would joke around if he gets insulted, brushing it off. Some call it ignorance, but it is his way of showing the world everything with him is completely fine. Waking up with a smile makes the day better, after all, so why not just continue on that pace?
  
  
• Intelligent - Soccer club captains, or sports club captains in general, don't get to leave a very good impression on others intelligence-wise. The fact he's playing the drums only adds to that brawn stereotype. Though Kitami is a smart kid, not only because he averages B+ in tests, but also because most positions in games are his strategies. There are other examples, though for the moment he isn't portrayed very well.
  
  
• Loyal - Kitami's loyalty is most likely a strong point of his. He proves to be a trustworthy friend that will be there when he's needed, a devoted man that sticks to the point and as a trusting, honest person that expects the same kind of treatment from the surrounding. It could make him seem naive in a way too, yet many see his never-ending devotion as a great point. In truth, he takes priority in other people's needs rather his own.

► NEGATIVE TRAITS

• Hot-Tempered - Most can see the small fuse as a somewhat comical element concerning the boy, while others just deal with the fact nobody's perfect. Kitami might not be as violent as before, but he still boasts a hot-temper, especially when his unusual hair color is the subject of the conversation. He will rage, for certain, even if he misunderstands something.
  
  
• Coward - There are times in a man's life where he must stand and face danger, no matter the consequences. Kitami luckily had not met with a scene like this where he is said man, and hopes to not meet it; he's a coward and he knows it. Because he has to act assertive (as that is who he is), it isn't shown much, but he's afraid to the extent of actually fearing to go to the bathroom late at night.
  
  
• Envious - Yes yes, being in the spotlight has never really been Kitami's forte despite his desire. He is easily envious of most of those who are better than him, making him competitive and in a way a sore loser. It will come out in the form of friendly jokes, but somewhere in those disturbing lines there's an ounce of truth.
  
  
• Vindictive - Once you get on Kitami's bad side, it's very hard to make him forgive you. Sure, he seems carefree and lively enough to bond with anyone, but there are those that hate his kind as well, and his outstanding appearance aids in that as well. Those types are sure to try annoy him on purpose, causing him to form mistrust and a somewhat passive attitude, if noticeable enough. He does not forgive anybody too, preferring to stay safe.
  
  
• Indifferent - Concerning mostly people's facts. Unless you state to Kitami in the face that you love him, no matter how strong the signal he will remain blind. Unless you take him, sit him down and explain everything thoroughly, never will he suspect that his ring is actually a Mafia ring. And unless you tell him straight-out how much you hate him, he will not know until deliberately something bad you make strikes him.

• Kitami is surprisingly multilingual. He is capable of somewhat speaking Italian rather slowly, English completely, Hebrew to an extent, Spanish to an extent, Latin completely and Japanese (his original language).
  
  
• The reason Kitami's last name is different from his great grandfather's is thanks to his father changing it to Honshou, adopting his wife's last name when the two married, a year before giving birth to the boy. Kitami is aware of his previous last name and that something is special about the ring he inherited, but is unaware of the entire story; he is oblivious to Koyo Aoba's activity in the Mafia world.
  
  
• Kitami is Pre-2nd Kyu equivalent in Capoeira-class, making him a 4-year successful practitioner. He is 5th Kyu in Karate and the equivalent of 3rd Kyu in boxing, thanks to fighting in the streets as a kid thus sharpening his perception of incoming attacks. To non of these he pays any attention, unless he feels like bragging in a way, making his own way of fighting without a style would he ever get in a fight - and he does get in them. A lot.
  
  
• Aoba Koyo married at age 24 and 26 had a daughter, Aoba Yukine. Due to an unfortunate misuse of protection in an affair, Yukine gave birth to Aoba Keigo at the age of 16. Her boyfriend decided to take responsibility and miraculously, they managed to keep the child and settle in a new life, detached from Koyo. Keigo married at 26 to Honshou Mashiro and upon marriage, adopted her last name out of choice and after a lot of consideration. At his 27th year, as a 'birthday present' from the skies, Honshou Kitami was born. The line refers mainly to those who inherited the Forest Flame from Aoba Koyo.
  
  
• Kitami used to be quite the violent child, and got in quarrels not once as a child. He can't recall when was it he learned of flame producing or why it happens, but it was definitely as a result of the many fights he was victim to - and it possibly served as his change in motivation from 'defeating all who mocked his orange hair' to 'striving to be the best'.
  
  
• Kitami has been playing the drums for 6 years. Currently, he attempts learning how to play more difficult rhythms, mostly concerning Jazz or Bossanova.

"GREEN STORM"

► AFFILIATION

Shimon Familiga True Forest Heir - Despite being but a mere, oblivious high-school student, Kitami still inherited Aoba Koyo's attribute of the Forest Flame, and as a direct descendant is therefore the actual heir to the Shimon Familiga Forest Guardian spot. He, unfortunately, knows nothing of this, and can only produce flames at certain occasions.

► ALIGNMENT

Lawful Good.

► FLAME ATTRIBUTE & ABILITIES
Forest Flame

Being a descendant of one of the Shimon guardians, Kitami had inherited the same abilities as Aoba Koyo, his great grandfather, to use the Forest Flames. Just like his ancestor, Kitami does not need the aid of Box Weapons or Animals to activate the special abilities granted, but can use the flame directly for offensive or defensive purposes. Although only occasionally can Kitami produce Forest Flames, when he does he is granted the full arsenal of abilities presented - from creating and manipulating vegetation to very bluntly use the flames for offensive approaches. The most common use of these flames by Kitami, though (as much as you could call it 'common), is the creation of plant life, in more direct ways. He will create wood, leaves, flowers and plants of all kinds rather than actually manipulate those that are present in the area to begin with, for unknown reasons unfortunately. He had not decided yet, or rather discovered, why is it he prefers creation over manipulation.

Taglio Mannaia

Kitami's unknown epithet in the Mafia World is deprived from this semi-witty, risky and favored attack. Because the boy wouldn't believe in coward fighting - which means, striking from a distance and ensuring his own safety - his use of the Forest Flames is much more direct, creating out of thin air plant life. However, this technique uses the main property of the flame itself, cutting and slicing with high power anything that it comes in contact with. Taglio Mannaia, or Cutting Cleaver, appears as but a simple, physical attack coated with the flames; Mostly, it would be a punch. The trick however, is when it actually makes significant contact with the target, as that is when the Flame of the Forest is released from the limb, spreading over the target and slicing it all over from many directions, though non behind. In the close range it is used, blocking or dodging the burst's impact would require an inhuman level of reflexes and speed, such that should not exist without the use of special abilities. Would Taglio Mannaia miss its target however, if only briefly, it will not burst - but simply cut. In other words, the reach is increased for the actual, physically sent attack.

--:|ACCEPTED!!|:--

I think he's cute. c: Eventually - when somebody from the Varia or Jian realize he's the true Forest guardian - he'll be put under protection by the Varia. Anyway. He and Sheeka should hopefully get along swimmingly.
