Character (Public)
Name: Kazuki Yukimura
Arcana: The Hanged Man
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Grade: 3rd
Persona-user or NPC?: Persona-user
Played By: Seron Maxwell from Meg and Seron
Starting Persona: Daedalus. A man so skilled at crafting labyrinths that even he nearly failed to escape them, metaphorically reflecting Kazuki’s growth to this day. In time, Daedalus did find himself in imprisonment, and his attempts to escape simply resulted in leaving him with less than he started with thanks to the loss of his son: Icarus.
Combat Role: Ranged physical fighter: Kazuki himself specializes in rifles, scoped or otherwise (which he insists is completely disconnected from his hobby). Daedalus is an electric Persona, although its real specialty lies in status ailments. Kazuki relies much more on himself than his Persona in combat, but it’s certainly a big help to be able to slow down or paralyze his targets.
Appearance: He’s 5’8”, and is fairly slim, though his inactive lifestyle has kept him from developing a lot of muscle. That said, he’s actually fairly attractive. He has black hair of medium length and brown eyes which constantly seem to be in an expression of thought, contributing to his serious demeanor and jarring contrast with his actual behavior.
Kazuki always wears an unmodified school uniform. It’s worth noting that, despite not actually acting uptight at all, everything Kazuki does falls under school regulations, which may very well have an effect on his individuality that explains his level of sociability. The one thing that really distinguishes his outfit is a small brown bag holding his camera, a band allowing it to be carried on his shoulder. Outside of school, you’ll still often find him wearing a dress shirt, but he’ll add a coat if it gets cold.
The physical similarities to a certain messiah are quite on purpose (or at least, they are now), for thematic reasons, as I explain in other parts of the application.
Personality: Kazuki is friendly and gets along with pretty much anyone that knows him. These traits allow him to avoid being bullied despite his admittedly mediocre level of popularity, though he doesn’t really go looking for trouble. Even though Kazuki has extroverted traits (and a natural attraction to social pursuits), he doesn’t really act overtly emotional. Matter of fact, it’s actually very difficult to make him smile. This is an old habit that stuck around from his days when he was a lot less outgoing.
He’s decently smart. He doesn’t make the top of the class in any exams, but he’s above average in pretty much all of them, simply because he does take the time to study up. Though Kazuki is fairly diligent when he has something to do, he doesn’t really come up with any pursuits other than school or photography, which he took up due to special circumstances.
On that note, he rarely does any socializing outside of school. In truth, outside of the aforementioned hobbies, Kazuki spends the majority of his days just lazing around. He did join the track club out of an obligation to do it, and really holds no resentment for it, finding it an interesting enough way to pass the afternoon. This and the photography club (of which he’s a mere member of) are the only places where Kazuki is actually widely known, simply because of the much lower amount of students.
You’ll rarely listen to Kazuki talk about family. Although it was this element of his life that led to his current personality, he has outgrown his feelings from back then and simply gets along decently with them. What was once an incredible admiration for his uncle has slowly eroded into simple acknowledgment of his existence, and Kazuki actually thinks more about his closer relatives nowadays.
He’s big on animals, since they generally don’t have any bias based on years of seeing him in the background. Kazuki actually has a mild persecution complex (more like the opposite in this case, really) in that he doesn’t really believe anyone actually considers him his friend, which at this current moment is very much the truth. Kazuki believes he has squandered his potential and any attempts to enter any sort of circle will be rather late to the game. Again, not too far from the mark.
He’s about as big on religion as you would expect any Japanese boy his age to be, and doesn’t really show much superstition beyond visiting shrines and such.
History: Kazuki’s name is written with the kanji for ‘hope’, since that is exactly how his parents see him to this day. They don’t really overload him with responsibilities, and it’s more akin to the typical view a parent has of his child. Regardless, perhaps it was this support that encouraged Kazuki to go through his school life with relative ease. Fairly sociable at the time, Kazuki was often seen playing with friends, and was virtually indistinguishable from his peers.
There really isn’t anything special about Kazuki’s family. If anything, it seems to have a great deal of successful artists, but nobody really expects him to follow in those footsteps, seeing as his family is fairly non-traditional. Kazuki does have a big brother, although their age difference is big enough that they never really interacted much. This would normally take a load off him, not having to put up with the family business, but seeing as the Yukimuras are fairly independent in their work, it’s simply just an interesting side-note.
Other than that, Kazuki seems rather boring. He’s part of both the photography club and the track club, but he doesn’t really display much in the way of passion (although he actually is somewhat diligent). Perhaps this is the reason why he’s never been more than a member. Whoever remembers Kazuki from his first year of high school or earlier (which certainly isn’t a large list) will remember him as having a completely different personality, being a lot more emotionally detached from everything around him.
