Characters currently in-game: none
Triggers/Fears/Squicks: horror wise i'm mostly okay, but i have a 100% no policy on non-consensual sexual situations
Character Motivation: Midare, like all of the touken danshi, is summoned in order to protect humanity and their history, but it would take very little for him to be convinced to protect them from a less temporal-related threat, too. Plus, hey, there's plenty of havoc to be had in such a sexually charged situation as this.
VOLUNTEER PROFILE
Name: Midare Toushirou
Age: His gorging date is 1259 CE, and Touken Ranbu takes place in the early 23rd century, making him roughly 940 years old. As for his appearance, he seems to be in the 17-21 range in terms of appearance and maturity.
Physical Appearance: http://touken-ranbu.wikia.com/wiki/Midare_Toushirou/Gallery
Point in Timeline: Touken Ranbu's flow of events is nebulous and vague at best. Events and campaigns are time-based, but some re-run and very few things confirm a given timeline of events. Even the various anime and stage shows contradict each other sometimes. For the sake of simplicity we'll say he's already returned from his own kiwame. More details will honestly be dependent on possible canon-mates.
World Description: `The year is 2205. "Historical revisionists" looking to change the course of history have launched their attacks on the past. The Saniwa sages, who have been charged with protecting history, have given life to the strongest tsukumogami known as the "Touken Danshi."`
Basically, Touken Ranbu takes place in the future, where Japan's solution to the History Retrograde Army fucking up the timeline is to take government sponsored sages, have them form bonds with swords from Japanese history, and keep the timeline from being fucked up.
History/Background: wikia link Given the nature of the game, character's histories are literally the histories of the swords they are based on, which they consistently reference throughout the game. You can find a bit more detailed info here (warning, not a browser friendly tumblr page).
Noteworthy Positive Characteristics:
- Charm: Midare is cute and is well aware of that fact, and tends to leap at the chance to arouse delight in those around him. He loves making people smile, blush, laugh, anything. It's a very idol-like personality where he adores the idea of inspiring happiness and good times in others. He especially enjoys doing so for his loved ones, such as his brothers or his master.
- Earnest: He's quite forward with his intentions and his feelings, and generally expects others to be as well. When others are hesitant to even look him in the eye, he gets frustrated, demanding their full attention, but mostly because he feels people are only honest that way. When hurt, tired, or in some other negative state, Midare doesn't like to hide that from those he knows will worry otherwise.
- Family: The Awataguchi swords are all one big family in canon, and they act like it, too. Midare loves his brothers very much, particularly the eldest Ichigo, and strives to take care of them and assure their comfort and happiness (part of that charm, mentioned above). He'd do anything they ask, and in turn feels comfortable asking them for anything.
- Don't Overthink It: Midare doesn't spend a lot of time contemplating or being deeply introspective, because he personally feels that's where people start to become lost and lose sight of what's really important. His former master, Katsumoto Hosokawa, was guilty of this and ended up sparking the war that would keep Japan divided for over a century, something Midare has personal regrets over.
Noteworthy Negative Characteristics:
- Chaotic: His very name translates to "havoc" (or just "irregular", in any case). He loves chaotic situations, stirring the pot, making things exciting or unpredictable. In battle this leads him to be frenzied and joyfully violent, but in regular day to day interactions, this just means he tends to push people's buttons.
- Perverse: Especially when it comes to flirting and sexual situations. He teases people constantly, well aware of his charm and how it can impact people, becoming deeply flirtatious. Much of his dialog is laden with sexual innuendo and he hardly holds back when it comes to his wanting sexual attention either, particularly from his master.
- Panic: Despite that, particularly frightening situations can shake Midare's confidence pretty badly. He's intelligent and capable of taking care of himself when things get rough, but he has to spend some time calming himself down first, assuring himself he'll be okay, that others will be too. He consistently needs reassurance when facing something he sees as scary or too challenging.
- Don't Overthink It: Because of course this is a double edged sword. The same attitude that doesn't like to overthink situations also means he tends to be dismissive when real, sincere concerns don't quite seem as important to him. People should relax and be honest, he says, but when that honesty is too challenging, he has a tendency to just want to run away from it.
Character Fears: Midare's biggest fear is "disappearing", or otherwise fading from the comfort of his home and loved ones, or falling out of existence in some way. Being ignored or being alone fit into this as well.
Powers/Abilities: Midare, as a touken danshi, is faster, stronger, and has better reflexes than a normal human, well over. That being said, Midare himself focuses on speed over power, and is capable of moving exceptionally quickly, as well as being highly flexible and agile in general. Given touken danshi are tsukomogami (a type of tool that becomes a youkai, or spirit) he technically doesn't need to eat or sleep, either, but does so because it's at least healthier for him.
An important note is that Midare and the tantou he is the spirit of are inextricably linked. When one is damaged, so is the other. When one feels something, so does the other.
Personal Item: The actual Midare Toushirou, the tantou itself.
