Welcome to Tokyo, Japan. January, 1991. The world has entered the technology era, portable phones, home computers, internet, video games. Japan quickly became the epicenter of the latest and greatest. Companies and factories flourished. Where money was, people followed. And while many rose to live a comfortable, happy, and delightful life from this new found money... Others did not. You see, money has this effect on people that can't be outdone. People will do anything for it. And when it starts slipping into the wrong hands, it's impossible to stop. Benethe the day time laborers and the double-shift workers, a seedy underbelly of syndicates exists. Narctics, black market, organized crime, money laundering, you name it and it's been growing as fast as the upper world economy. While many do it just to stay alive, there's those who make it their posh lifestyle. Either way, there's only one question. What would you do if the money was good enough?

[break][break] enemies You're the same as me, aren't you? You can't pull the wool over the same stupid eyes.You don't really care about the shogun's head, right? You just wanted to come here because you got a whiff of the smell of the blood. They're the eyes of a murderer. You can't feel alive unless you're on the battlefield surrounded by death. No matters how many villains you cut down, that thirst is not quenched. You've been looking for someone strong like me, and I've been looking for someone strong like you. Right? So relax. If you're saying that you can only cut down villains.... Then, I'm one hell of a villain. [break][break] romance That's fine with me. There isn't anything I want. There isn't any reason for me to look back. I only see what's ahead. A new battlefield spreading before my eyes...that is what I seek. I strive to become stronger than any other person. I move forward to become stronger than anything. Even if I have nothing left to protect when I get there.
[attr="class","spaceFoot"]Today, again, I tamed the loneliness and held expectations towards this idle life.
[attr="class","spaceBody"] about A living personification of a forest fire; nothing can match this bastard's passion. Seiya oozes charisma; far too friendly and far too touchy to be smiled upon in his home country. This vigilante works a million different odd-jobs; you can often find him tending bars, working behind the counter at cafes or bakeries, or waiting tables. He spends most of his time in Shinjuku & Rappongi. His favorite past time is getting down and dirty; whether it's kicking bad-guy ass or relentlessly flirting with some fine-ass--he's a hands-on kinda guy. A ride-or die bro with a pretty face; what more could you ask for? [break][break] friends If someone wants to be friends with Sei; they probably already are. He's a malleable kinda guy; just looking for people to have some fun with. Chaotic? Ideal. He'll wreck the town with them and have a damn good time doing it. Toss back a few drinks and get wild. Shy? He'll coax 'em outta that shell with some patience. Depressed? He'll happily lend an ear and, if welcome, some physical affection to help distract. Hurt? He's all about justice; he'll beat some ass in their name. Over-all; Seiya is an extremely loyal friend who would do anything for the people that get into his heart. [break][break] enemies Domestic abusers hold a special place for Seiya; the kinda dark place that flips his switch from a happy-go-lucky good fella to a cold-blooded murderer. He can't stand for innocents getting hurt; and Japan really falls short when it comes to protecting the people who need it most. He tends to go after the creeps in his bar who can't keep their hands to himself. He hates those who act like they own people, like they are on-par with the gods of the land. Pretentious suits that toss around money get under his skin like no one's business; having lost so much in his life over money troubles--well; he's not too fond of most affluent folks; making exception for those who have proven to him they're good at-heart. Really; at his core, he just hates those that abuse power. [break][break] romance Seiya isn't exactly the type to settle down. He's a gift that keeps on giving--to anyone that will have him. It's not so much that he can't commit to being with someone--it's more that he can't commit to only being with one someone. His heart is a wildfire that burns out of control. Passions always at their highest level. Love is a drug that he's always getting high on; and a night without a partner in his bed is a night wasted. He needs someone who won't try to chain him down; someone who can love and be loved near unconditionally. Whoever that may be will find themselves with one of the most doting, passionate, deeply adoring partners they've ever been with.

[attr="class","spaceBody"] about I'm the kind of person who saves his favorite part of a meal for the end. In other words, I've taken a liking to you. Make sure to heal those wounds. Well, you probably have a lot to deal with, but don't die. ...Until I kill you. See ya, samurai-san. [break][break] friends The one who said to get stronger to protect the family was you, wasn't it? So even if I have to tear your arm off, I'm bringing mom with me. Even if we are not a family anymore, I'm going to protect her. [break][break] enemies You're the same as me, aren't you?
