Basic Information
 Name: Dain Samael Alridge.
Age: 19
Nationality: Austrian, though he’s lived in the USA for about six years. He has a little bit of an accent, but it’s not as strong as his parent’s.
Hometown: He moved around a lot his whole life. He was born in Wels, Austria, and spent most of his American life in Riddle, Idaho.
Current Residence: A fairly cheap apartment in the Shinjuku ward. What little he managed to scrape together from his room when he was told he was going on a surprise “vacation” (which ended up lasting two years) litters the apartment, along with small odds and ends he’s been given by his Japanese friends.
Occupation: A stage musician within the Golden Gai area. As far as he’s concerned, it pays well enough.
Talents/Skills: Well honed agility and land speed from rigorous self-disciplined training, almost any musical instrument you can throw at him, excluding wind instruments, and the innate ability to be unseen in a crowd.
Birth order: First, and last.
Siblings (describe relationship): N/A
Parents (describe relationship): He considers his parents as annoying acquaintances. There is really nothing much else to say on that topic. They haven’t spoken since he ‘moved’ to Japan.
Significant Others (describe relationship): He once felt he was in love, though the person broke his heart. When asked about the person, he becomes defensive and obnoxious; it seems whatever happened, it was not an easy break up. (couple theme; Room of Angel, Silent Hill 4)
Relationship skills: Sub zero. He likes being alone, and he likes it well. His cold personality can often be described as self-centered, though he will protect people who manage to become important to him with his life. Very, very slow to trust.

Physical Characteristics
Height: 180 cm
Weight: 64kg
Race: Human
Eye Color: Very dark chocolate brown. It can almost be called black.
Hair Color: Was once a nice, dark blonde, though after being dyed repeatedly, it seems to remain a deep brown/black. It matches his eyes well.
Hair style (picture reference may be used): [link] for style, not color.
Glasses or contact lenses?: Neither, he has excellent vision. Though, if it came down to it, he would opt for contacts, on the basis of the freedom they provide as opposed to glasses.
Skin color: Somewhere between pale and average. It has a rough, weather-beaten look to it.
Distinguishing features: A few less-than-visible scars on his back and chest. Unless you catch him naked, it’s unlikely you’ll see these. About as unlikely as actually seeing him naked in the first place.
How does he/she dress? Shoddy rockstar-esque. And I mean, like, REAL rock. Not that crappy emo stuff. Jackets and baggy black pants, buckles everywhere, rude t-shirts. That whole deal.
Mannerisms: Often he’ll pop out with strange sayings in serious conversations that can make the point he’s trying to get across a lot funnier then he first intended. He runs his fingers through his hair when he’s frustrated, and expresses things while he’s talking just a little too much with his hands.
Habits: Making odd faces, such as pursing his lips and narrowing his eyes a lot. Flipping the bird every chance he gets. Picking his teeth and fingernails with things he shouldn’t be. Like knives.
Health: The health of an athlete. Though these odd headaches lately…
Hobbies: Plying piano, and being a grump.
Favorite Sayings: Though he doesn’t really have any one particular saying he repeats often, he tends to say things that normal people find hysterical. Things like “I’m so hungry I could chew the a** out a low flying duck,” with a completely serious face.
Vernacular: When he talks, it can come across as scorning, harsh, gruff and slightly taunting. Most of his sentences tend to come out sounding like jokes when he doesn’t mean for it. His ‘friends’ (acquaintances, to him) have noted that he becomes doubly as funny when he is mad. His voice still has that recognizable touch of Austrian, and can be vaguely described as low and smooth.
Disabilities: None, really. Other than being painfully antisocial.
Style (Elegant, shabby etc.): Quite shabby and forlorn looking. Call him an emo kid, though, and earn yourself a swift uppercut to the chin.

Intellectual/Mental/Personality Attributes and Attitudes
Educational Background: Home educated for the early years of his life, though when he moved to America, he was forced into a inexpensive high school. His final year of high school was spent at home, refusing to leave his room, reclusive within his thoughts and memories, pondering strange things that he had never told anyone about. The meaning of life, the reason for coincidence, supernatural occurrences and so on.
How does the Character see himself/herself? Although he is displeased with the world around him, Dain considers his body the bringer of all good things, and his handsomeness unrivaled.
How does the Character believe he/she is perceived by others? The last thing on Dain’s mind is other people’s thoughts and feelings. When he people look at him, he doesn’t pay attention. When people talk to him, all thoughts are on himself.
How self-confident is the character? A little too self confident…
Does the character seem ruled by emotion or logic or some combination thereof? Although he tends to over think situations in a logical sense, all of his conclusions are drawn purely on an emotional standing point.
What would most embarrass this character? To be seen naked!!
Greatest flaw(s): Overconfidence and selfishness.
Best quality(ies): emotional strength in harsh situations, courage, the inner good will to protect innocent people from harm.
Emotional Characteristics
Introvert or Extrovert? Extroverted with his actions and way of talking, Introverted with all emotional thoughts and feelings.
How does the character deal with anger? SHOUTING!!
With sadness? The stiff-jawed stoic approach. Though when he has time to muse on it later, he may spend all night crying and reminiscing.
With conflict? Very self-defensive and loud. If the attacker is going up against someone he cares about (of which there is no one at the moment) he is likely to puff up like an angry animal and verbally attack the other until a psychical fight is provoked.
With change? Change is the way of life. Nothing is forever.
With loss? Endless grieving, as he feels it is so rare for him to feel close to a person. For material things, it is only mild frustration, a little swearing, then a beer.
What does the character want out of life? Undecided.
What would the character like to change in his/her life? Secretly, Dain would love to have a partner. A special someone to lavish with attention and protection, and to be with forever. Above all else; to be loved. 
What motivates this character? The unknown. Perfection.
What frightens this character? Insignificance in the greater scheme of things, being emotionally bare and scrutinized, betrayal.
What makes this character happy? Music, purity, love, passion.
Is the character judgmental of others? If his attention is forced upon someone else, especially a stranger, he wil be quite scrutinizing of them. Though he is so self-absorbed, he finds it hard to focus on anything but his own feelings when he is not being spoken directly to. Even then he will be making judgments based on his own wants and needs. Mostly, he struts through the street like he’s the only damn person there.
Is the character generous or stingy? With anyone but the one he adores (whom he is without, as of yet) he is stingy, emotionally and materially. He gave his ‘best friend’ Akihiro a pair of socks he’d owned for three years beforehand.
Is the character generally polite or rude? Rude as hell.

Special Characteristics
What is the domain is your character most likely to belong to? Light
What is the domain is your character least likely to belong to? Soul
What is the element is your character most likely to belong to? Air> Healing
What is the element is your character least likely to belong to? Empathy. Or really, anything to do with the mind.
Do they fight at close or long range? Close range. Melee attacks go!
What is their weapon? A switchblade, much later on to be possessed by a rather empathetic and soul-based being who gives the blade a somewhat supernatural appearance while in the otherworld.
Is there a reason behind the choice of weapon? Dain is quite partial to very up-close and personal attacking, so the short, easily deployed blade is, to him, merely an extension of his hand.
In the real world what does the weapon transform into? A…switchblade? After the spirit possesses it, it simply looses it magical quality.

Friends and Enemies
Dante Gray
met: Once, at Shibuya Station
opinion: Currently, thinks very little of him. The first other with the 'cold' following him that Dain bumped into. He seems aware of the changes in temperature, but not what causes them, which is unfortunate. Luckily, they've exchanged numbers, and may exchange new information at a later point, when they both know more.
Adda Gao
met: A street corner
opinion: God damn crazy a** sonova-! The area was to crowded and well-lit to be able to sense the coldness with her.
Finnegan O'Keefe
met: At home, in own apartment
opinion: None yet
Rhiannon Dare
met: Takeshita Dōri
opinon: Dain doesn't know if he's really sure what to feel about her. She helped him out of the crowded shopping area which he'd lost himself in, and they had some sort of improvised lunch together, but he felt he exposed some hidden part of himself to someone he shouldn't have, somehow.
Akihiko Fujioka
met: Cat Street, inside a small Cafe and Bakery
opinion: He seems to change his mind a lot, in Dain's opinion, or be uncertain of what he wanted to say in the first place. The cold appears to follow him in a more submissive way, as though he has some dominance over it. Knows quite a lot of startling and disquieting information about the darkness...

and as I lay here,
bleeding the last of it out,
I can't help but smile.
...finally...
I meet God.
