So taking into account this whole conversation we been having and doing some deeper stare down with Katsumi to feel him out as an individual and less as a character. I have written up this tidbit of a summary.
I think this is far more fleshed out then it was earlier and now actually feels like someone, then well, something. Also thank you for the advice and direction. it has been a great help!
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Birthday: 26th Sun of the 3rd Astral Moon
Known Job: Mercenary
Side Profession: Treasure Hunting, Scavenging, Illegal Trade, Whatever
Information:
Katsumi was never happy with his life among the mountains and at a young age found himself running away from home, including find the means to get onto a passing ship in order to be a stole away. Once the ship got to its destination, he quickly darted off and hit the streets of a foreign land from land moving from one adventure to the next.
Though that is how he would explain things, but the truth is hard to find in his web of lies and tall tales. It goes from everything of him being a pirate, a trader, an explorer, and even a gladiator. While perhaps he has been all of these things at some point, what is clear about Katsumi is his down right greed. He is a mercenary through and through, willing to do anything for the right price.
He has no true moral compass, but his own, which can change on the fleeting whim of how much he likes or dislikes someone. He holds no true friends, but only those with deep pockets, but once they are dried up, he is gone. He loves to kill-- anything really and he loves a good fight. He doesn't care about family or home. Not even the troubles of the poor, little man. He rather using them as a stepping stone to get to his next ticket of fortune.
Katsumi Duskblade is also egotistical and prideful. Only thinking of himself and never anyone else. At least not what can be observed on the surface and perhaps even deep in too. There has been no reason for him too, as it has always been him. Which is the way he likes to keep things. Oh sure, he'll work with people or for people, but by the end it is always hard to say where he'll be next or with who. One night stands are even a common thing, as he sees himself as a charmer to the ladies and doesn't exactly take no as an answer-- only because it could lead to a fun fight.
But he is no idiot. He knows when to pick his fights and also how to back out of them if he believes they will cause more trouble than they are worth. Not desiring to find himself behind bars without a contract deed to throw his own tracks clean. Though he may have faced a time or two behind bars, including found ways to get himself out.
His motivation though seems to be self serving, greed and perhaps even fame. He wants the world to come to know him, ladies to bask at his feet, and to sit upon an empire which he can call his own one day. To rule over all pirates, scoundrels, traders, and royalty alike. He wants to be on the top of the food chain and everyone below him. Willing to risk it all in his chase of greed and power. To be the king of his own world.
