RPG Gaming :: Though he's partial to the RPGs on consoles, and loves just lounging on his couch and playing a good video game....Hari's in love with Tabletop gaming as well. He plays a few D&D campaigns here and there, and after he met a certain someone, his interest only became more...intense. Though he's never had a particular site at which he's found himself sucked into the D&D world, Hari recently has started to go to a local game shop, curious as to what sort of campaign madness he might get himself into....

Football :: When he and his father sat down to watch this strange American Sport, it was bonding time for the both of them. Now older, he enjoys tossing the old pigskin around in the park with the guys, sometimes playing tackle for the hell of it. Now, he does still occasionally watch the games with his Dad, since it's almost like tradition, especially on Thanksgiving day. The fun part about the Kizoku family is that neither Hari, nor his father tends to root for any one team. You can hear them screaming their delight over tackles, and see them wincing for any-which team that may be playing. It's chaotic and silly, but they love it. When his father's not in town to watch with him, Hari makes the habit of going to sports bars for lunch to catch the latest game in his own way, quietly studying it for moves he might be able to use in his 'casual' games against his friends. As far as Pro or College, they generally tend to watch both, though Hari has a penchant for the rough-and-tumble College games.

Occasionally, he'll go out to watch a college game with his dad, or just spend his time staring at the Television while the other games are on, but his favourite games are the no-holds-barred ones that happen in the off-site locations. He loves the fact that people put their passions into these aggressive games that end up being a great way to make friends and relieve stress!

Meditation/Relaxation :: As much as he loves being active and doing things, one of his favourite hobbies is lounging around at home and doing nothing, or maybe being out on a date and doing nothing! One way or the other, laying back and just letting the clouds pass by is something he greatly enjoys. Often, Hari takes this as time to think over things. Most often, one can catch Hari in the middle of the park, laying back on a bench under a tree, and watching the light filter through the leaves. If not there, on top of a random, grassy knoll, there to watch the clouds. And when it's raining? Hari can be found inside of the local cafe, just sitting at the window table, watching the rain fall from the sky, zoning out, his mind away from everything else. Generally, he does it when there's something bothering him, usually something to do with his mother, or his current group of friends, or hell, sometimes even his obaa-san. He reflects on everything. Life, where his is going, his gender issues, sports, gaming, you name something that this one might think about, it's probably crossed his mind. Then there are the days that he's doing it just to get out, lay back and watch the clouds. This is a way for him to just relax, let go, and just let his mind drift over nothing in particular.



//Honest//
If nothing else, one of the best traits about Hari, is that ling to another will often be a rare occurence. He's always been straightforwards with himself, and others, and really disllikes the very idea of going around someone's back. Sure, this means that he can get himself in a good bit of trouble, especially when blunt honesty goes to far. However, Hari believes that first and foremost, Lying to people is wrong. Better to break it now, than to deal with the repercussions of sugar-coating later, which he believes to be much worse. If someone is hurt by his honesty, Hari is often careful, and will back off to give them space. At least until they approach him to allow him to make amends for what he's done wrong! The way Hari looks at this trait is that it really is because he cares very deeply for people, and respects them too much to allow himself to keep things from them. His honesty is a gift, one that people who know the boy well can come to appreciate. There are some people who will ask his advice with the clear knowledge that the boy doesn't lie, and in that, Hari takes solace, and will offer his unbiased opinion freely. This can sometimes make him a good shoulder to lean on if you're looking for a direct opinion on your situation.

//Even-Tempered//
He also seems to be able to keep it together well. He never really overreacts, usually keeping insanely calm. He seems to be the sort to never really bother with the insane emotion, because overreacting can be so draining. He tends to be able to hold himself to a standard of calm, despite a lot of what goes on in daily life. Honestly, it's likely because Hari can be quite lazy when it comes down to it, but at the same time, he's not without a temper. Until such time as it's brought to face, however, he can often be seen as the sort to just stare at you. Due to his tendency towards calm over reaction, however, it's very rare to see the temper that he does have. It's more of a building, that takes quite a bit of time to show. Occasionally, people will come to the young man as a mediator. His level-head makes it easy to sort through the things he's told, and give a hand to any who speaks.

//Brave//
Very brave, he will often let something go without him jumping in. Hell, he's kinda known for it. Hari is very keen on jumping headfirst into trouble to save someone. If you're scared of even a bug, he'll scoop it up and take it outside for you. Of course, bravery can become quite reckless at times, and he actually has taken the hard brunt of it before. It had to do with family matters, something he stepped in and took the brunt of for his father, leaving him with a scar that none can see. Most, though they do appreciate the setiment, would likely not appreciate Hari's form of bravery.

He tends to jump straight in, without thinking. Whether you can handle it or not, he sees someone who needs help, and he helps them. He doesn't really think about it, nor does he think about MANY things. While this is an impulse behavior, it's one that offers a fearless savior in unlikely times! Hari is definitely the sort to be the first into situations where others would be frightened. Mice, bugs, stray birds, none of those things phase him. It ties in to his even temper, he supposes. He follows his gut without a moment's hesitation.

//Idle//
He's also very lazy. As much as he likes getting out with people, he likes sitting back and laying about. It's hard to get Hari out of bed in the morning, because he's often so intent on sleeping as long as he can. Only one person can get this boy out of bed with ease, because he'll jump through hoops for her. Though he will willingly get out of bed to go play a good game of DnD or football with the guys, it's not often he's willing to put in the effort to go beyond what is routine in said situations. It frustrates people, since there's never much of a change from his Norm, since Hari is quite content to sit back, relax, and stick himself right back in that neat little pile of self that he's made.

He's been known to be late to events, either from over-sleeping, or from just plain not wanting to get up from the couch. His mind is more geared towards letting him laze about, than immediately jump to his feet. Though he does tend to be more active when interested in an activity, you can bet on Hari being at least 5 to 10 minutes late....every time.

However, when another is in trouble, this trait seems to be thrown out the window. His first instinct is to protect those that need it, likely because of how his mother raised him to think. It's one of the only reasons that this boy will get off the couch and act.

//Posessive//
The problem is, he's quite jealous, Be it over his very close friends, the things he owns, or the person he loves, Hari can often come across as a jerk of a person when he feels like what's "His" is being taken from him. It's unusual for him to show this side around many others. He doesn't deal well with loss, and 'coping' comes in the form of burying himself in his room, and not coming out. Either that, or trying his hardest to get it back.

He does tend to jump the gun when it comes to silly little things. In making a bad joke, or monopolizing the time of those he cares about, he becomes extremely irritable. It usually is shown in the way he snaps out at them, usually by getting snippy, and sometimes becoming passive-aggressive, should another get too close to him whilst in this mood. He's never lost a friend due to this yet....but things happen. Sometimes, if people get to his good side, his possession extends to them as well. He has a tendency towards being snide if other people spend more time with them than he does. It's a really bad habit sometimes, especially since he'll end up sulking about that too, after moving off to sit alone for a few hours...

His friends are victims of this nature, as are the things he owns in his home. Touch them without his permission, or monopolize their time, and he'll often get angry, usually issuing ultimatums to his friends to spend time closer to him. If it's his girlfriend, it's the person that's taking his time with her, and with his things? Just...Don't. If this trait's fruit is brought to bear, it can often be noticed because Hari will become distant from the person that managed to cross the line. He won't speak to them, and will often simply offer a cold look if he feels as though they've wronged him. It takes quite a bit for this mentality to wear off, especially if you're one of HIS people that's managed to wrong him.

//Blunt//
The worst part about Hari's honesty is that it goes VERY far. Beyond the realm of acceptable, and into the realm of brutal. His honesty can be lined up as being far too direct, and leaves people wondering just why he was so willing to 'give it to them straight' to begin with! This directness can be a bit shocking, and the fact that he seems to give no regard to the abrasive nature of his speech is very annoying at times. If you ask the boy if you don't look good in something, before those little white lies, he'll likely just tell you "Yes." And it is NOT a good idea to ask him about fashion, because he's overly aggressive about that aspect especially.





Eyes:
Pale violet eyes, with a touch of silver around the pupil that seems to come from his mother's side. He has a mostly normal almond shape to them, though thanks to his father's side, they turn up a bit at the corners. Usually, they are very calm and bland, not much expressing going on.

Hair:
Usually kept cropped short, no more than 1.5" from his head at any given time, he sometimes spikes his hair back out of his face. His bangs are a bit longer, framing his face in a sweep towards the right. The color is a soft ebony, though he's streaked it with a bit of blond in the bang area.

Face:
His body is very much the toned and athletic sort. Toned around the waist, with thinner hips, and long arms and legs, he seems the sort to be a swimmer. His shoulders are a bit more broad, though he has an elegant neck, with a slightly more angular, masculine facial structure. Weight is guessed to be around 145 lbs. Skin tone is a pretty mix of his father's Japanese descent and his mother's pale peach.

Clothes:
Hari's coloring usually seems to stick around black, whites, and silvers, as those are his preferred tones, though sometimes he'll toss in a bit of gold or purple. Usually, his fashion style is a bit more V-Kei, as that was what his dad introduced him to, when he was young. Though his 'obaa-san' and his mother aren't too fond of it, he thinks it looks great....especially when he has almost no chest to bother him.

Father :: Kizoku Hisao
A man of very few words, though loving and very sweet, Hisao is the father type that usually is very open and permissive. When his son told him of his feelings that he may not have been meant to be a girl, well...he quite accepted it! It meant it gave him an option to dress him in his new boy's line!!

Mother :: Gwendolyn Kizoku
The most that is known about this proper British beauty is that the 42 year old woman never really approved when her son 'came out' as more of a 'man'. Now, she simply works from home, and helps her husband's mother in many of the things that go on around the Kizoku house.

Grandmother :: Kizoku Ame
Ame is the matriarch of the family, living in the house with the her son and his wife. She is the least approving of Hari's transition, often forcing him in to traditional women's clothing from time to time for special occasions, despite the boy having been on HRT for some time now,
