NAME: Naoki Kudo. (Rarely a friend will call him Nao but that's become increasingly infrequent) AGE/BIRTHDAY: February 14th, 1936: 44 but looks mid twenties. BLOOD STATUS/RACE: Half Jorōgumo OCCUPATION: Coordinating a small corner of the Japanese Yakuza--mostly making sure the bodies are buried where they need to be and planning out Business Take Overs. It is the nearest equivalent to a paperwork job. |
About |
Naoki Kudo was the ambitious attempt by an enterprising young wizard Yakuza to have a son who could rise steadily in the ranks and maintain his position longer than any of his human counterparts. Having a good legacy was important and his father had noticed that the less-human tended to fair just slightly better at times—living longer, being more successful. Unfortunately, this young wizard was not well educated in how mixing genetics is a gamble. Naoki’s mother was a Jorōgumo and it is a mystery to everyone, including Naoki, just how his father managed that given how infrequent youkai will sleep with a human or wizard—much less give birth to a child. It happened, though, and 44 years ago Naoki Kudo was born and left with his father who raised him and loved him—even if the venom his body produced sometimes left him nauseous and he never was the robust, threatening, Yakuza member his father was expecting. Despite his rather sickly physical state, Naoki did become a yakuza member and did, in fact, rise steadily in ranks—abet more toward desk work. Having a wizard for a father granted him some magical ability, though he prefers to tread it in waves than using wands. His Jorōgumo mother, meanwhile, might have caused his bones to be brittle and his rib cage to feel too small for his body—but she also left him able to defend himself with venom and teeth, as well as his proclivity for weaving and the spell work he’s developed that way. At present Naoki works as a coordinator for “accidents”—finding out the best places to dump a body during a given time period and coordinating corporate take overs. His physical vulnerability, however, often results in a necessity for a bodyguard/physical assistance when venturing out of his work area. |

FIVE THINGS: Five things you've always wanted to RP out/explore about this character but have never gotten the chance to do before, why you picked this character, things you're most looking forward to playing out with this character, how you think your interpretation stands out, how you’d like for your character to grow over the course of the game, plot ideas, etc. Try to include at least one plot idea for your character. Providing this information helps the mod and other players build plots around your character. Try to focus on how this will help with character interaction. • I can't really handle another very, very active character so I thought I'd make one that is no push-over, and could be in a position to boss characters around (and he is bossy!), but could also be easy to excuse and take out if my life became too busy for a given time period. • I love Japan and I like the idea of blending Yakuza and youkai. What could be better than blood-purist, nearly out-in-the-open mafia like groups mixed with wizards, muggles, and demons? • Creative magic. I imagine that this character waves webs and into those webs spells or potions--meaning going into his office probably isn't a cake walk. I wanted the chance to be creative with how he manages magic like I did with Rueben but in a slightly different way and certainly more dark. • It was mentioned before but there really do need to be more Death Eater Sympathetic Temps--This character will fulfill that. • I'm hoping some people will step up so we can have a group of temps again.
