Personality:

Tsuyoshi is the type of guy that usually allows things to pass him by if he does not feel that it is important. He has a hard time getting serious over simple things in his life other than playing baseball when he is on the field. He tends to be lacks about his school work, but knows when he needs to pull his act together and get serious at least in his studies. Most of the time he rather be watching a baseball game on television than doing homework or anything of that nature.

Tsuyoshi loves to be laid back and watching a baseball game when he can. He even watches the American League when he can. He loves just going out there and pitching when he can or playing second base because he knows that he can get the double play when he can. He makes most of his friends on the baseball field because that is truly where he feels like himself and not someone that his father wants him to be.

He does keep a picture of his mother and sister in his room. His little sister was his world before their mother took her away from him and their father. There was nothing that he wouldn’t do for her in those days. Now he finds himself missing her and how they use to play with each other. He knows he might never get a chance to see her again because since they have been gone he has not has one bit of contact with her.

Tsuyoshi as always felt like a burden to his father because he had never been the son that he wanted him to be. He does everything his father as asked him to do and more and doesn’t feel like that is enough. When the truth about the real family ‘business’ surfaced he has always felt pressured into following in his father’s footsteps. He will do anything to make it to the man that his father wants of him even if he has to sacrifices his own dreams of playing pro baseball. He wants to be the crime boss like his father and one day either destroy his father’s business or take over the family business to prove to himself that he is able to someone important.

When he is practicing Kendo he tries to place his best effort into it, but when he is on his own he feels more at peace with himself and his movements becomes natural. He tends to hold his katana sword backwards because he feels more comfortable with it. He does thieves to be the best he can do when he is in class in order to gain the respect of his father. When Sayuri came to his father’s Kendo dojo he realized that he had a small rivalry with her because she was just as strict as his father and soon became his favorite student and demanded him be more like her. He sees her as someone that follows his father’s strict rules and ways.

When Tsuyoshi is bored he finds himself either muttering baseball stats of his favorite players or taking a nap somewhere. He does enjoy listening to music and keeping up to date with the newest stars, but he doesn’t really care what is happening in the celebrity world or anything like that. He plays the causal video games when he can, but doesn’t really care for them either.

Despite all that he has been through in his life he takes everything in strives. The only people that he holds a grudge to are his father and of course Sayuri since his father is always telling him how much better than what he is in Kendo. He also holds a small grudge against his mother Yuri for taking his sister from him, but he realizes that in the long run it was better to take her away from the crime his father was starting to get him into.

Over the few years that he has been welcomed into his father’s other business, Tsuyoshi has found himself in disgust how many of them has turned on each other in order to save their own skins. He wants to take over Japan’s underground crime world to change it for the better in a way. He wants to weed out those that talk and turn on their friends and business partners.

Katsu:
Katsu is overall Tsuyoshi desire to play baseball. He is innocent in the way of fighting and hates when Tsuyoshi fights someone or an X-Egg. He begs to his owner not to destroy the dreams of other children and tries to convince him that he had a dream too that he could take control over. He is always fighting with Omotai with what Tsuyoshi should do and usually pushed off to the side since he cannot Character Transform with Tsuyoshi. He believes that that his owner can change his future and wishes for Tsuyoshi to do so.

Omotai:
Omotai overall is Tsuyoshi desire to be like his father, but himself at the same time. He loves to talk Tsuyoshi into the wrong choices and knows he can play the father card when he needed the boy to do something to even darken his morals about the world. Omotai is constantly telling Katsu to shut up and mind his own business and allow Tsuyoshi to do what is expected of him. He also looks similar to Tsuyoshi’s father in many ways. He has the same cocky look about him along with the hair. He is dressed like a mafia hit main from overseas because Tsuyoshi wants to change the crime lords in his own creation of how crime should be run.

History:

Tsuyoshi was born on November 13 to Akiyama Ichirou and Akiyama Hinata. His parents were college sweethearts and his father started to take over the Akiyama crime ring just before he was born. His mother felt that she didn’t want to raise her son in a family of crime lords of Japan and soon after his birth decided to take her infant son to her parents’ house. When Ichirou found out about Hinata leaving him with his son he started to fight for custody over their son. Because his father had friends in high places the custody over Tsuyoshi didn’t take long. Just after his second birthday in the court system Ichirou was awarded full custody over Tsuyoshi when evidence of his mother being a prostitute and a drug dealer was brought up in court. Of course all the information was stage and set up by Ichirou and his men.

During the legal process of getting custody over Tsuyoshi, Ichirou met Kotone Yuri. Soon they were married and a year or so later when Tsuyoshi was nearly four years old his half sister Sakura was born into the family. Their father opened up a dojo in order to teach the Kenjutsu Style of sword fighting. The Akiyama sons are all trained at this starting at a young age. When Tsuyoshi started elementary school his father started to teach him Kenjutsu. He had to practice at least an hour a day and training with the other kids his age was on Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm with a lunch period between one and two.

Ichirou slowly started to realize that his son had a lazy personality and wish to beat it out of him. Whenever he screwed up in class with the other boys his father would slap him with the wooden kendo sword in the head. Tsuyoshi slowly started to pay more attention during these lessons in order not to get smack by the sword. When he was nine years old his stepmother, by now he believed she was his mother, after dropping his sister at figuring skating practice they were shopping and Tsuyoshi caught on a tv in a window some of the baseball game that was being played by the professionals. This caught his attention more than what Kenjutsu had done and Yuri had seen this in him.

That night Yuri spoke with Ichirou about getting Tsuyoshi involved with the baseball team at the elementary that he and Sakura went to. At first his father disagreed with her and told her to mind her own business of him raising his son. Soon however, Yuri went against Ichirou’s wish and signed Tsuyoshi up for the baseball club. It was there that Tsuyoshi found his talent at pitching a baseball and hitting it out in the outfield. His laid back personality was slowly pushed back to the side and his father allowed him to continue to be on the time as long as he made sure that he applied his seriousness to his Kenjutsu practice as well. Tsuyoshi was soon balancing practicing baseball and Kenjutsu after school, but he never turned his back on practicing either one because he knew his father would make he give up baseball.

When he turned eleven his mother talked his father to take him to a baseball game for his birthday. Tsuyoshi was able to get the home team to sign his baseball that his team gave him to get signed. That night he went to bed with the baseball in his hand wishing that he could play baseball like he had seen them place. The next morning he woke up and he saw an egg near his. The egg was black and blue strips with baseball bats in an X formation around the middle of the egg. Over the next few weeks Tsuyoshi started to get nervous about a major game that the school was having and he was slowly starting to mess up in practice and even at Kenjutsu. His father started to yell at him because of his mistakes one night and he went to bed that night without having dinner.

Next day was the game and they were down a few runs and it was slowly starting to get the point that it was all up to him if he hit the ball or not at the bottom of the ninth inning. His egg hatch just before his turn at bat and he met Katsu for the first time. Katsu Character Changed with him up at bat and without much of a problem Tsuyoshi hit a homerun ending the game with a one run lead over the other team.

However, soon things started to surface in the media about a crimes being linked to some of Ichirou’s business partners and his father was starting to be watched by cops. His mother and father started to argue about what was going on and this was when Tsuyoshi made sure his sister didn’t over hear them during their fights. He would play anything that she wanted when he was around.

Over the next few years worse and worse news about his father’s business partners came out and a couple of them even turned him in. His mother finally had enough and decided to take her daughter away from double life of her father. This broke young Tsuyoshi’s heart when his step mother and sister left. Soon his father was telling him that she wasn’t his real mother to start with and that he should just forget about her and Sakura all together. His father during his middle school days made him quite baseball and focus more on his school work in his Kenjutsu practice. Everytime he messed up now he would have an exactly hour of practice each night. His father yelled at him to be more serious so he could one day take his place in the family art of crime. He started to show Tsuyoshi a bit about his double life as a crime lord.

Pretty soon his dream about being a pro baseball player nearly ended, however, he pushed his father when he started in high school to allow him to play since it would look better on his college application. This time it came with a worse agreement between the two. Tsuyoshi had to be serious at school, Kenjutsu, and baseball. Tsuyoshi agreed to the terms, but his grades started to slip one day.

He was fourteen at the time of his grades slipping and he was on the edge of a nervous breakdown. He scribbled on his homework and laid on his bed. Katsu was flying around him telling him that he could do it, but Tsuyoshi turned away from him and wished to like his father and serious like he was suppose to be. He fell asleep without completing his homework and when he woke there was another egg near his leg. It had the say stripe pattern like Katsu’s egg, but this time around the middle was a hat with a blue rim around the middle.

Over the next few days Tsuyoshi pushed himself to be serious and soon during a one on one practice with his father in Kenjutsu he was making mistakes after mistakes until his father started to yell at him and told him that he should disown him and that he was worthless. Tsuyoshi glared at his father and Omotai’s egg hatched and character changed with the boy. He was holding his sword for the first time with the handle up and the blade down as he moved to fight his father. His movements flowed just like his father’s did until he had Ichirou against the wall panting for breath. He dropped his sword and walked away from his father.

He was soon approached by one of his father’s business partners that worked for Easter and soon he started to work for them doing odd jobs about X-Eggs and finding the Embryo. On night when faced with three to four eggs the eggs were quite a bit stronger than him and he was forced into his first Character Transformation with Omotai and he was able to defeat the eggs by destroying them.

How'd You Find Us?: ......
Roleplay Sample: Tsuyoshi sighed slightly as he walked around the school some. It was an odd feeling switching schools just in order to get into a better baseball programmed because it meant that he was leaving his old team behind and would probably have to face them in the long run in order to get noticed. He knew however, that he needed to get noticed in order to earn some scholarships to collage. His father had swore that if he didn’t at least make a scholarship because of his baseball fever that he would be pulled out of the program in his final year at the school.

He reached up and rubbed the back of his head for a moment and yawned some. ”Man today as been a long day already and there is still Kendo practice tonight.” He whined slightly and looked around the hall some. He was wondering where everything was and where his two Charas where that was running around the school and trying to either kill each other or at least find out the layout for him. He grinned at the thought of leaving the two of the alone on the first day, but he didn’t feel like being stalked by the two of them either.

He didn’t have to wait long until he found Katsu and Omotai fighting to see into a window in one of the gym sections. He sighed some and walked closer as he come up to the window and watched the two of them. He grinned and reached up and grabbed Omotai by the jacket and pulled him away from Katsu. He looked at the two of them and shook his head some. ”You two are going to get yourself found out on our first day here? Can you two act like brothers for once in your life or are you two just going to yell at each other?” He said calmly as he let go of Omotai. He knew this one had probably started it, but spoke nothing of the fight because he didn’t care. As long as they didn’t kill each other he was fine.

Katsu was breathing hard, but pointed to the window. He had seen Sayuri in the window when Omotai has jumped him from behind. ”Tsuyoshi-kun! Its Sayuri…she in there! She goes to this school. I spotted her coming here and followed because I didn’t think it could be her. But it is.”

Tsuyoshi stopped and looked at Katsu for a moment and stepped closer to the window and looked inside of it. All he saw for now was two fencers fighting and he looked around and didn’t see Sayuri that he knew. He decided that since he had a bit of time that he would check it out. After all he did known a bit about sword fighting himself and knew this was only another’s country style of it. He knew his father always called this style a weak one, but it didn’t hurt to sit in on a practice. He could always play that he was new to the school and was checking out what was the best club to get into.

He slowly opened the down and stepped in followed by his two charas. He took his bag off his shoulder and sat it against the wall and watched the two fighters on the mat. There was something about one of them that was slowly starting to bug him, but he could not place his finger on it just yet. He continued to watch the two of them fight until the end. Once one of them unmasked themselves Tsuyoshi was stunned to see who it was. He grabbed his bag and walked out of the room again. He didn’t want to be seen just yet by her. She of all people was the last one that he wanted to know was here at the school.

Omotai flew out after him and was closely followed by Katsu. He had a small smirk on his face and tilted his hat up some. ”We should give it to her! Since your dad wont let you fight in the dojo here at school he can’t do anything to prevent it! We can show her once and for all who is better of the two of you!”

”NO! Tsuyoshi you no fighting outside of the gym is prohibited. Your father will be mad if you take Kendo into the school on your first day!”

”Shut it you! You know he can use a katana and not that wooden stick of stupidity!”

He watched his Charas fight at the moment and waved them off as he saw the group was being dismissed now. He grinned and didn’t see Sayuri in the group that was leaving. He looked around and moved back inside the room and caught her placing her stuff away. He slowly walked up towards her. He felt at least one of his Chara fly onto his shoulder, but he ignored it just now. ”You fence as well as do Kendo. You are a mystery in yourself.” He said carefully to her as he slipped his hands into his pocket. He doubt that she could see his Chara on his shoulder and where the other one was at the moment didn’t bother him.
