Akari is a 24 year old 5 '4 “ half-demon. His appearance is as follows: He has an extremely skinny frame, longish gray hair that's swished to the side, blue eyes with darker blue slits, and a long purple scaled whip tail, with light purple spikes and horns. He is shy and uncomfortable around new people, but warms up rather quickly. He likes to be mischievous and playful, but acts confident. He has autism, ADHD/ADD, anxiety, epilepsy, depression, and low self-esteem and confidence. He also unknowingly copies people, can't read social cues, and gets upset when he gets it wrong. Akari is dressed in a baggy hoodie, jeans, and a bandanna.
None of the 4 siblings know their mother, but Akari had a completely different mother than his siblings, due to him being adopted. He's more of an arboreal demon and tends to use his claws in climbing. He has a scar on the back of his neck from a former bounty hunt gone wrong. Akari wears a baggy hoodie and bandanna, although the bandanna is optional. When hunting, he wears leather gloves instead of fingerless cloth ones (he wears these to deal with textures he doesn't like). Akari's tail can be used as a whip in battle. It's also prehensile and can pick up and wrap around items. He uses it in day-to-day life. When struck against the ground, it makes a sound similar to a whip crack. He also doesn't wear shoes when outside??? He's weird sometimes.
Akari doesn't see himself as a prince. He's not recognized in public like his brothers, and doesn't contribute anything royally. Neither does Sitri really, but Sitri sees himself as a prince, high, mighty, and rich. Atlas is a general, feared, and respected. Akari is none of this. So he would often be in the demon cities with Tyler and Infared, just hanging out. He chose to move to the Voidian lands because he wanted a taste of a new society, to learn about other species.
Kinda represents “think no evil” due to his inability to think about doing anything bad without having a breakdown. Doesn't really hate anyone either, just gets uncomfortable.
The demon, when him and Shard had been in a relationship for around 4 months, moved from the 7th ring of Hell to Voidia, just to start a new life. He had plenty of opportunities at home, but he wanted to get away. So he did. In this new world, everything was a lot bigger. Voidians didn't seem to like demons very much, and not many were even willing to hire him.
Living in a castle with a bunch of Voidians who hate demons causes a lot of stress on Akari. People stare at him, and he tends to get anxious and overwhelmed by all this. The castle is also built for taller species, specifically Voidian Royalty (who is average height is 6'6), so Akari has a lot of trouble reaching things. Walking down the hallway, he's incredibly small next to the Voidians. However, Shard is almost always there to pick him up or help him get things because the small demon struggles to.
Akari is dating Shard. His love language is physical touch and gift giving. The two are always together when they can be, with Akari being Shard's source of comfort for his anger issues, and Shard being who Akari goes to when he is overwhelmed or scared. The two are so close that Akari moved from the Demon realm to the Voidian realm to live with Shard in the castle, despite all the prejudice against demons in the new realm.
Akari struggles with epilepsy, as well as Autism and some other disabilities (ADHD, anxiety, and depression). However, he always has Shard around to help him!
Also, he likes to climb into the rafters and watch people walk underneath, to feel taller than everyone. Shard is eternally concerned he'll fall.
Because he is a demon, he still has a bit of a bloodlust that he must let out. So, Akari works for Shard's father, the Voidian King, as a bounty hunter. He does this in return for being allowed to live with Shard in the castle. He mostly takes on bigger threats that the Voidian government doesn't want to dirty their hands with, such as murderers and bad drug deals. Akari is pretty good at his job as well, due to his abilities. However, he's clumsy and most of his injuries come from when he's coming home and falls somewhere. Shard isn't a fan of Akari's hunting...
Akari has unique demon abilities, so he can shift size and change his body temperature, and has a demon form as well. He can make portals and stick to walls like a gecko. His tail is used as a whip in battle, as he's built for speed and agility. He also has an unknown demon form, but this is only known to him, his brothers, and his father...
Akari had a very simple childhood. He was adopted way back before he can remember by Overseer, and was always the smallest out of the 4 siblings. He switched between being homeschooled and being in normal school a lot, just because everything was a lot to handle. But he had friends, and everything was good.
Akari did start to develop signs of depression at around 12, but was put in therapy and put on medication. Everything was fine from there. At 21, Shard was forced to move to “Hell”
Shard - Boyfriend
Akari really likes Shard. A lot. He is constantly boasting about his boyfriend, and all that he is, basically worshiping him. Their relationship is mostly just romantic, with intimate motions only happening when Akari provokes it. Akari gives him many gifts, and likes to just be in the same room as him.
Atlas - Older Brother
Atlas and Akari get along. Akari buys him little figures, which Atlas displays on his desk.
Sitri - Older Brother
Sitri gets along with Akari, around him a lot. He revels in telling Akari about his gambling and drinking, leaving out his intimate moments for Akari's wellbeing. Akari often listens carefully, and asks to join, but Sitri always tells him no.
Mask - Older Brother
Overseer - Father
Infared - Bounty Trio
